MotherAfrica Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 6-12-2008- Events have been turned back on in the game. Some of the existing events have been updated and new events have been added. There is now a 10% chance of getting an event for your nation both when collecting taxes and when paying bills. Whoo hoo!

hahne59 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) I don't know how I feel about this. It would suck to get a bad event while saving up for your 365anni, but there are also positive events. Let's see how this plays out. EDIT: First!

Lord Sharpe Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Good stuff. Events are a great way to add excitement to the duller times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compstomper Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Ten percent chance! Maybe I will actually get them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArgonV Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 I really hope I at least get one good event this time around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oktavia Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Wouldn't it be 20% chance a day if you collect and pay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoman Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 What are these "events"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedestro Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Nope. Part of the fun is finding out on your own. Just out of curiosity, have you added any "new types" of events that were suggested before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Verteidiger Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Wouldn't it be 20% chance a day if you collect and pay? Yes. What are these "events"? They're... avents. Things that happen that effect your nation positively or negatively. Btw admin, if you already have an event, is the event (heh, PUN!) of you getting another still 10 percent or is the chance lowered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugexe Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Wouldn't it be 20% chance a day if you collect and pay? If you had 10 10% chances to get an event, you would still not be guarenteed to get one. You still only have a 10% chance per day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gebiv Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 yes...two 1 in 10 chances = 2 in 20 (or 1 in 10) Actually, 19/100 chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivion590 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Gebiv is correct; you have a 0.9 * 0.9 chance (0.81) of no event, a 2 * 0.9 * 0.1 chance (0.18) of one event, and a 0.1 * 0.1 chance (0.01) of two events. Assuming they are independent, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they are independent, of course. You have a straight 10% chance of getting an event each day. The probability of getting an event each day is 18%, but that doesn't mean anything concrete.

Oblivion590 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 There is now a 10% chance of getting an event for your nation both when collecting taxes and when paying bills. Just because most people only pay bills on most days doesn't mean that people never collect taxes and pay bills on the same day, sir. Also, I believe you meant 19%.

Demoman Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Stop calculating. What does it matter if it happens 18% or 10%??? If it happens => it happens. If not => then not. I think the chance is 50%: 50% for happening and the rest 50% for not-happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naamah Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) Oh boy. I anticipate a bunch of negative events. Even ones with mixed effects probably have a net loss. Seems like most of the updates for this game either hurt my nation, or provide worders for people that have over ten thousand infra. "Oh noes, too much money in the game" ETA: This is the only game I have ever played where I actually dread updates.

"Oh noes, too much money in the game"ETA: This is the only game I have ever played where I actually dread updates. Most of the new events are thinking events. You have to option to sacrafice happiness for an income boost and vice versa or a little population for a land boost and vice versa, etc... Counting all the events in the game they are 48% negative 52% positive. BTW, the +15% citizen event has been removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naamah Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 fair enough, apology for being grumpy. Too much talking in IRC makes one paranoid I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta1212 Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 BTW, the +15% citizen event has been removed. That was such an over powered event. I'd gain 2.5 mil a day and nearly 20k citizens if I got it these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
