Reducing AFK - Increase Gamez Coins per half hour and add daily cap

Ive had like 3 new players ask me in the last few hours me why everyone is afk. Can we just quadruple the gamez coins per half hour and cap it to 6 hours a day? We would still get the same amount we already do, but wont need to be online an entire 24 hours daily for it anymore.

 

I personally think x4 shift to a 6hours cap its just too much. Its true that people afk to get gamezcoins but they also wait to play BG. Giving players the opportunity to gain the daily gamezcoins max rewards in just 6 hours will automatically reduce drastically the server population leading potentially to a big gap between players around the world (matchmaking wise).
I like your suggestion but i would personally make it softer. Talking about doubling the gamezcoins but gapping at 12hours instead of x4 to 6hours. But, to still give some sort of "credit" to players willing to keep playing more than that or just afk (because out of 100 ppl, 70-80 afk, but 20 still keep playing), ill add a 5-10 gamezcoins (regular-premium) rewards every 30 mins with no limits till the refresh of the 12 hours cap.
Doing so players would still get the opportunity to get max ammount of credits per day, yet still get a little reward to go further. Also considering that right now just a small % of people runs the game for 24 hours straight to get the max coins out of it. I'll suggest this different distribuition (which is more likely to work) to the other staff members

 

How many people do you think are actually playing more than 6 hours a day? I think it will only lower AFK population, and won't affect active population at all. Anyone who is playing isn't playing to get gamezcoins, because most of us will leave the game running AFK anyways if that's all we want. I mean, I'm happy with any improvement at all, so even 12 hour cap and just doubling the gamez coins rate will be a welcome change. The only reason I suggest 4 times instead of anything less is cause I dont think people should have to play 12 hours daily to legitimately earn the cap without having to AFK. Still, I think everyone would welcome a change to 12 hours over keeping it to 24 hours if that's what it takes to get the other staff members to agree. I think we will all appreciate you for suggesting it to the other staff and hopefully getting this changed.

 

The problem is you're talking like having the possibility to gain 1920 gamezcoins every 24 hours is granted. At this point just make it a daily reward, you log in and get 1920 gamezcoins and you re done for the day. Thats not the point. Again, theres no one running the game 24/7. So giving 1920 coins in 6 hours is basically boosting everyone income by a huge %. Doing what you ask will just get people to play for 6 hours (Or most likely just afk) and create a huge ammount of alt accounts to do the same thing. Thats absolutely busted. Will drastically change ingame economy and also people behaviour. Again, gaining 1920 coins every day isnt granted, yet mostly no one does run the game 24/7 to get that much.

 

I really don't want to talk about you guys. After benefiting, you've started to think and pay attention again. You keep making requests and suggestions to the GM, but the GM doesn't know what he's thinking. When you mention them, he just changes them. A server game setting is repeatedly changed, and the best setting was originally the best. Now it's been changed badly. The gaming experience used to be much better than it is now.

 

If you think ppl should be rewarded more for afking 24 hours then sure, by all means keep things the same, this is why we all joke around and call this server afkaion or a jumping game cause of all the ppl standing in place jumping for hours. While I do think turning it into just a daily login reward wouldnt be terrible, I don't see how it's the same as being rewarded for being logged in for 6 hours. I personally already leave the game open 24 hours just to get the gamezcoins so the only benefit for me is QoL, yet I will not be complaining if the people who cant leave the game running 24/7 get a "huge" income boost as you said it. They would still need to be logged in 6 hours, which.. is still a very long time. How many people actually play games for that long daily? People have jobs. It's a little sad if you think ppl should only be granted this kind of income if they leave the game running 24/7 like myself. The thing I do agree about is the alts, but I thought that was already regulated very strictly and that only one account can gain gamezcoins at a time per ip? I would hope this would stay the same to prevent people from abusing alt accounts. Either way, if 6 hours is off the table, I hope you guys still consider doing 12 hours. It will be an overall positive and well received change.
