Will Zion Survive?

Post by Kitchen »

Well mit you need to do something or give it away. I think with the lack of food, farms, houses, repair materials, ect... people cant make enough money. Since they cant make enough money they can't repair their stuff which then they lose their' stuff and it effects everyone else.

This would also be a great oppurtunity for a monoply which would really take the island out. I haven't had any transactions in about a week now. The only people that could survive for a short time is Me, Henk, Mopp. Yes without food and stuff it is a lot more fun but the new players can't survive. Your hopes of a long running, busy island is gone im afraid mit. Unless you take the nessesary action to fix this.

erm, well i don't know about everyone else but i'm making good amounts of money still :)
yes the islands dieing, but its alright i think theres a few things still making money, just steel can't make money cause theirs no mines, if someone makes a mine the bang, back in business.

just take the initiative. i think t was zar who once said something like "why do players always complain there not enough of this or that, when if they just go and make it they'd strike rich"

well use that information and get richer

Well, sorry. I lost all my buildings to decay and all my money to bugs. I'm out.

It's going to be hard though if I even want to think about getting rich.. I only have 150s on me and the only current way I can get money is my job and fishing. Fishing should at least be more productive. :P

even if you have no buildings or jobs, its still possible to collect unemployement and eventually build something
can do that even if every building on the island collapsed

its not like the players can die off from lack of food.
so of course the island will survive.

A tournament might be worthwhile, perhaps a "fighting with vehicles" one, if theres an option for determining the amount of deaths and kills...

Yes, Zion will survive. A functional ore mine is now in business again, right near one of the steel factories in Console. :)
