I. The basic principles
1. The fine on amount of enterprises will be canceled. What will be important for the new system – is number of workers;
2. The system of qualification growth will be modified: every player will be able to improve qualification all the time, even on very high levels and without paying. Speed of qualification growth will change, depending on the current level, from very fast to very slow;
3. The whole system will become more predictable, and the company operation will become more stable.
4. There will be much less possibilities of unfair qualification growth;
5. There will be more correlations between various game factors. For example, correlation between employees qualification and equipment quality.
II. About clones
In the new conditions it won’t be that profitable to use clones. These are the basic reasons:
1. As result of fine cancellation (see item 1), there won’t be any need to create a clone for every branch;
2. The “Management” qualification will become more important, so the player will have to rise it for every clone, what is not as convenient as basic account development.
3. We suppose, that it will be more reasonable to invest time and power into one company. It means that one Manufacturer of 60th level will be better than two Manufacturers of 30th level.
III. Details
There is a lot of information concerning the stated-above innovations, so in this announcement we only can tell a couple of new things:
1. You will see the biggest changes in your Office work. For example, we’ll introduce requirements for equipment and employees qualification. Those offices? which are in charge of regions with plenty of high-tech enterprises, will have to correspond to this level;
2. A small wearing will reduce efficiency only after it reaches certain level, which depends on equipment quality;
3. Qualification growth will depend only on the fact of its functional usage, and not on player’s conventional rate of success. In other words, it will depend on player’s enterprises loading rate;
4. Parameters of qualification growth are not settled yet, however we count on possibility of natural growth up to the 50th level for half of real year (in the most ideal conditions).
