Any ideas. WE all know its dying. Long term agents still enjoy it, yet, its getting to costly to keep going. I see no new blood coming into the game. Its now 38 seasons since Beta, so I would guess they have recovered their developmental costs. What to do? DO nothing and continue to see it die a slow death. You know they won't rewrite any part of the game since it would cause them to incur needless expense on their part. Does anyone here play GLB2, if so is it any better then before? I never like GLB2.
It would seem some of the only options would be to get creative with flex point purchasing, free dots, which hasn't worked well and dot creation.
1. cut package cost of flex points in half or double the current flex points received. Making the game cheaper to play.
2. after option 1 is done, advertise this in all the social media outlets they have a presence in. Call it a rebirth or whatever just get the word out. We need new blood. If they get more points for less maybe some will stick around longer.
3. offer free temporary dots that live for only 480 days based on the size of the Flex package purchased. Added value benefit.
4. Add a Custom option on position archtypes were the agent chooses his gold star and blue star attributes. Give agents true control of their dot creating.
5. Reduce the cost to create a dot, to buy his CE, lower BT requirements for AE and return 100% of BT if you sell your AE( like if you make an upgrade mistake and want to rebuild it).
6. Give agents some thing for each season they have stayed in the game and active dots they currently have. Like 10 flex points for every season you were active in and 50 flex point per active dot at the end of the season. An add value option to become a long term agent and reward dot builders. Wouldn't count on your free dots.
What else can be done besides lower cost, giving some added value benefits and marketing these changes.
What other ideas are out there to help get more agents into this game again. Short of offering them some free sex, drugs and whatever other vice they like.
