The current fight system is deeply flawed, rediculously scewed in favour of vets who have punched thousands of codes.

Whilst I fully respect those who achieved such large mobs, it is unrealistic to expect new players to get anywhere close to these behemoths.

This in turn, results in a poorer retention rate that could otherwise be achieved.

And, as more and more big spenders put down their tommies, this leaves the game financially vulnerable.

If there was a new combat system where mob was a smaller factor, more players would be retained and are likely to invest modest sums of cash to play.

I am all for keeping players around but the question is what is considered small and also fair in general.
3k mob player who has been around for 2 months what should he or she have as an advantage or disadvantage over players 20times larger that have been playing for 2-3 years

What about a 10k player in for 6 months

Or a 20k player in for a year?

Keep in mind the game is played differently by many players. Some love to just fight and be in Vs others just hop or just plant while traveling.

I certainly don't have the answers but I would be curious how you change the game for 5k, 10k 20k mob players.

I understand the issue, but I've never seen a suggestion that would work.

My bias is pretty obvious, having punched codes for over 3 years now. You also have to consider the players that have spent thousands of dollars on hench.

My fault? 😂 Of course I punched codes. When I started playing, mob basically didn't affect range.
