So okay, yes, a beginning player is advised that he/she should produce highest quality goods as possible without detracting from 100% efficiency. Presumably then, installing tech license or purchasing tech license and adjusting salaries and equipment qualities to max out (but not exceed) the player's Qualification levels in Management and Production is the way to proceed.
A beginning player, however, is initially given only $1 million virtual cash to start with, along with starting qualifications Q1 across the board. Should one choose the Uncle's Gift which is specialized on production,then a temporary +1 boost to production quality is given to the starting player.
In addition, it is mentioned that one should produce goods with quality at least equal to the realm average, or else one would only be able to achieve slower growth. However, the later in the game that a player starts, the higher the realm average is, thus condemning late-start players to ever slower production growth relative to that experienced by earlier starting players. So producing at realm average quality is completely out of reach for newer players, and remains so for ever-increasing time durations.
That seems most unfair, somehow. And extremely frustrating.
Also, where does one find what the realm average is - is that info posted somewhere? |
