1st_Wave Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I wonder if the players just noticed the battlepay and ran it without noting the taxes players were going to receive if Mother Russia wins this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rakosta_Kai Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Eh, The Rails need a legitimate bad guy. Unlike many, I don't see Eclipse as that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darksinger Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Eh, The Rails need a legitimate bad guy. Unlike many, I don't see Eclipse as that group. Well I just don't play the places they control, since they take too much tax. Of course that means that part of the game are practically unavailable, to me, due to them alone.

Warriorrogue Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Credit tax isn't a problem. Honestly. I dunno about you, but I don't like loosing 5K on some of the missions that eclipse owns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdei Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 where is all the crusaders for low to 0% taxes at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achromos Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 where is all the crusaders for low to 0% taxes at? Pluto? Anyone who cares for 0% tax cares for pluto because that is the best node for such things. Ironically enough they 'should' care about the other nodes but they don't.

Ironically enough they 'should' care about the other nodes but they don't. so their moral high ground of sprouting to fight for low to 0% taxes is all a facade then? So this node don't provide that high a credit return so it gets ignored. that sounds of greediness to me, help whats most benefit to me regardless what I say.

fatpig84 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Honestly even newbies know where the real credits lie. Ceres and Pluto. They just do their epic battlepay missions for lulz.Kinda like guys who don't run Eclipse rails and do Eclipse rail conflicts for their battle pay.

Dualstar Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Wait, the Russian guys actually set the tax to 40%? To my knowledge you cant change the tax until the conflict is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranial_Enigma Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 To my knowledge you cant change the tax until the conflict is over. To my knowledge I don't remember any DS having over 25% tax for every player so they must have changed it to 40% to get extra income once the fight is over. Base on the tribute change time they must have changed it 2 hours before the conflict happened, so now we will have a 40% tax for 3 days that is uncontestable.

DietEbolaCola Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 To my knowledge you cant change the tax until the conflict is over. Sorta. It cannot be change once someone challenges a rail, while the deployment / repair phase is underway. I believe it can be changed during the battle, however, if the 24 hour tax timer supports it.

I know where my allegiances are [to people who charge reasonable rates] but people at base are greedy shells and nothing but smoke and mirrors. Sure, a few of us really do care but I bet you that a majority does not and will not care in the slightest as long as certain nodes are left alone... look at what happened to eclipse when they even tried for a second to touch the one in pluto.

OniDax Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 It's time to take Malva away from MotherRussia. Yeah, we failed to defend WiK. We need an overwhelming force to support Snowy Owls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holdenagincourt Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) A lot of people do care about 0% nodes, not only the one on Pluto. At the same time, it's obvious that more people will care about defending Pluto for a variety of reasons. One of those reasons is Sechura's high credit payout. Obviously, in an environment of finite resources, given the choice between a free node on Pluto and a free node on Venus, people will prioritize Pluto ceteris paribus. Another reason is that it's owned by a clan that a lot of frequent players trust and are loyal to at this point. SoV has earned my trust and loyalty through their consistent behavior, posts here on the forums and messages in support of other 0% clans on their node. A final reason is that Sechura solves the collective action problem that all DS conflicts are subject to. Everyone knows to go to Sechura because they're mobilized through Reddit, Council chat, these forums and other places. A lot of players probably haven't played Malva as much as Sechura and people who have unlocked enough to reach Sechura are probably not going to be spending a lot of time in Malva. Just to point out the obvious--because some of the people in this thread seem to not have realized this--neither of the parties to Malva are offering a 0% rail. So this isn't even the issue it's purported to be. Anyway, it's the middle of a weekday in North America and late on a Friday night in Russia. That's another factor.
