Ok so currently you get ;
  • 2 tech for a $5 donation
  • 5 tech for a $10 donation
  • 10 tech for a $15 donation
  • 20 tech for a $20 donation
  • 2 tech for a store purchase


Should this be raised? Your only getting 100 NS for a $20 donation. (Obviously your NS goes up with the land and infra aswell). This seems a bit too low in my opinion.

Thoughts?

The donations should really be about helping admin keep the game alive not your personal gain.

Voted no

no.....it's worth the same amount of tech, doesn't matter if it doesn't gain as much NS anymore.

How many people donate monthly so that admin can keep the game running? Compared to those who donate to advance their nations over infra jumps etc?

ask around your alliance, how many of them make donations, and how much are those donations. estimate how many people make donations throughout all of the alliances, and calculate the money being generated monthly

I agree with this. While it's fair you get some benefit for donating, I don't think it should be raised any.

Tech is no longer worth as much money... People donate so people can get benifits to their nations while helping Admin out by Donating to keep the game running.

Out of my alliance, I sell donations when I have the cash. Not many in my alliance do donations, they will buy donations from others but that's it.

I will still donate to the game even if admin refuses to up the tech from it

As will I. I buy/sell donations on a regular basis.
Just a thought. However, I guess quite a lot of people dont want donations to be worth more.

The only reason I buy donations is the cheap infra. I've never cared about NS and never will, unless it starts having actual effects in the game. Right now (like pretty much always before...) tech is just for reducing infra upkeep, unless you have the great library. Instead of bloating their NS, which can easily be done by purchasing tanks, soldiers and CMs, people should just try to optimize their nations. I've always aimed for maximum incomes with as little NS as possible.

Complaining about not getting enough NS is silly, you should rather complain about the tech not giving as big boost (happiness, upkeep discounts, army effectiveness) as the infra you get for the donation.

I think this can be closed now. I quite happy with the tech level in donations due to the most recent changes involving tech.
