Personal Properties - Fry - 01-06-2008 Warning: This thread is extremely boring and serious In LVP 3.0, I think players should focus on having more properties, rather than having the best properties. This doesn't nescessarily mean that they'll all cost/generate the same amount. Ideally, there would be properties that cost a lot, and properties that don't cost very much, depending on where they are. For example, a casino would have relatively high cost/earnings, and a tourist shop would have relatively low cost/earnings. However, I believe that a main factor in cost/earning inflation of properties is popularity. One of the branches of popularity deals with the name. Many players on LVP have their own personal properties. Props with their name branded on them. Some of them are directly related to a player's name, which has something to do with the landmark near them. And that's fine. It's pretty funny, actually, and adds a sense of personality to the place. However, many properties have nothing to do with their namesakes. I believe that certain properties have inflated costs and earnings, for the sole purpose of making them popular. In my opinion, it's a propularity contest. Note to self: never use that word again What if LVP had no properties with names on them? How would it impact the purchase of particular properties? What effect would it have on players' self-esteem? Would it further assist balancing property purchases? I'd love to hear LVP's input on this, as it seems to me like a controversial topic. Just my two cents. Edit: I know I'm probably a minority, but I don't speak Dutch. So I'd appreciate it if you speak English in this thread Re: Personal Properties - Mike - 01-06-2008 I think the properties have gotten out of hand. Right now, there are about 250 (I think) properties around the map. With an avarage of 81 players throughout the day, there are about 3 per person. That may not sound like much, but consider that some people don't ever buy them, and some have up to 60 of them. Look at the bottom line ^^ Also: If my memory servers me correctly, we used to have a property system that inflated the price and earnings of a property as people bought them. Dunno where that went though. Re: Personal Properties - dab - 01-06-2008 Yes, your memory served you right.  The gangbase got crazy expensive. But I do remember earning like 1.2mil a minute just with the gangbase. Not to mention the taxi property. I really did like that system, though props got too expensive and got kind of ridicilous.
