Cut the price for buying food on your private market from 360 base to 120 base. It will basically never interfere with the food peak, because even a demo MBR or theo MBR won't get food cheap enough to resell from private to public. It would partly cap the food peak at about $70, because once food went above $70, MBRs with max military tech could make a tiny profit reselling food from private to public.

It would, however, make it easier for someone to play turns if the food market was completely empty, and would be less painful for those (especially those playing from their phone) who accidentally buy food off their private market. With more people playing the game on their phone these days, I think this change is needed.

It should be a fairly simple change to cut the private market food price. I can't imagine the coding for this change taking too long.

What was the determining factor for the price of food on the PM in the 1st place?

I assumed it was based on what they wanted the PM sell price to be, but while military all sells at 25% of purchase price (before altering factors like MB or mil tech), food is at a completely diff ratio.

No, I mean the $360 or whatever the base price is. How did they get to that? Or they just copy pasted a bad design from Earth 2025 and went with it?

Food is somewhat worthless.. there is such an abundance of it! Prices always bubble then pop.. in the end the private sell price is generally what determines your success. I think the private market sell price is WAY too high.

Too high? But no farmer won Primary ever since the price got lowered, and farmers struggle in Express and Tournament as well compared to casher/commie.

I know what you meant. I thought first they picked a base sell price of $29, and then calculated the base purchase price off that, to a certain ratio. :P

It's from Earth 2025 =D
