    This is a suggestion to impove the current rankup times in MV Space Prison, with the hope of bringing more players in.

    Problem:
    It's pretty clear at this point the rankup costs are broken/not supported by the vast majority of people who have put any time into Space Prison, this needs to change if the gamemode is to be at all successful in the future.

    Here is the current problem, iizanoob and I crunched out the numbers and you can see with the graph the amount of inventories needed to rank up to your next mine with the time needed as well. The steep curves and insane hours needed has driven players away.

    Note: The time in hours is the extreme best case scenario with a 550 fortune pickaxe and very little time from full inventory to selling. A realistic time would be at least 30% more for each mine.

    Note: The sell prices at T,U,V and W mines aren’t known at this time, the curve is a guess.

    [​IMG]
    Proposed Solution:
    Change the mines to be more of a smooth ‘user friendly’ curve similar to the one in the graph above, maxing out around 40hrs of mining for Y to Z.

    Due to there being 10 prestiges, the content has effectively gone up by 10 from previous Op Prison's on MV. Because of this new feature, dropping Z price to 50 trillion and changing the curve to something much more user friendly would benefit the server.

    Things that also could be changed:
    The current money from crates is tiny and has no real impact on someone's ballance, upping the prices would entice more key trading and people voting for the server.

    Change money in crates to:

    • Astro: 500M to 1B
    • Nova: 1B to 5B
    • Stellar: 5B to 20B
    • Cosmic: 20 to 50B
    • Galactic: 50 to 150B
    Reaction prices should also be 1B to make it worth it and promote competition.

    This dude took his time to make a graph. If you don't support this, you probably commit tax fraud. He has my full support

    Neutral, its supposed to be a hard grind & I just feel that people gave up way too easily; however many things were nerfed and maybe it would be a good idea to revert those things.
    <-- this would make buying galactic keys even more op than they already were

    No support, your graphs show nothing and your sample sizes are exceptionally small.

    You do realise reverting things would make the time needed between rankups alot more, driving more people away? Its still a grind because there is 10 prestiges :L

    Galaxtic Keys are only P2W for A - O, after that they dont really matter, you pay 6usd for litterly nothing helpful half the time.

    Graph shows everything and it's litterly impossible at this point to get any more data from T,U,V and W.
