Weekly Game Cash: The weekly game cash has now started, with the cash limit set at a juicy £157,500,000,000 game cash, for just 11 Bushtarion Credits (and you can always purchase less as suits your personal budget!). Head to your purchase page to take advantage. As always, thank you very much to all who support Bushtarion through purchases! :D

wasnt the game cash changed to be a percentage of the top's income/score or something? so in actual fact it is fairer now...?

I only vaguely remember, so it might not be a percentage...but im pretty sure it is automatically worked out as a result of the top 50 players (again it could be more/less)

Game Cash Purchasing:
Game cash purchasing should now automatically enable itself 1 week in to a new round. It should also automatically adjust the maximum purchase amount each week based on the valuations of the top 25% value ranked players.

The top 25% of all income.

The income is focused at the topso its probably only top 10 or so who acount for 25% of the games income

Of many other similar games, Bush is still one of the most playeble games even at top level without putting a single penny in. I tested some other games that couldn't be mastered without buying premium account and as i proudly represent my cheap country i abandoned them :lol:
If some have the money for it, even 40 BC's for a tril later in round then be my guest, it's a good boost for medium sized players, but usually the top ones get most from income.

Ok lets be honest. Game cash has been a joke for as long as i have been playing.
For amount of money put in you get next to nothing back.
I know people whom have bought all game cas possible and its just been ridiculous and i have honestly pitie them.
For decent player in decent alliance with decent acres you have got same cash without much effort at all that you have got with cash.
No im not fan of this game turning to a cash to win game. But i honestly think this is damn good way to get funds for Azzer to keep this game running.
And now i finally can say i dont think game cash is a joke anymore. It might not make you unvinsible or winner as its not its purpose. But now it will clearly benefit you as it should. Still without making those with money to be superheros.

I think its awesome!

i think game cash rocks. it keeps the game going. and only can get an amount relative to the score of the top guys. therefore you can't buy your way into the top. also once its spent you can then lose it by suiciding or doing something stupid, or slowly getting raped by some one of similar score. or getting bribed. It doesnt give you any power. just a tempory bit of fun. like going to the cinema or renting a movie.

your bored you like bushtarion your retired. your sufficiently rich to not have money worries. wouldnt you pay 11 quid just to see the incoming die horrifically. It'd make me laugh.
shame im just a poor student.

Aye it's marvelous, that last minute buy up with a few trill is fantastic. A few rounds back with a coupla days to go i bought GC and massed TLs and pwned my attackers so badly. I think loz_l remembers that BR :P

Either way, i happily traded that money for game cash. It was fantastic, it is a bit of temporary fun, and it helps support a game i like to play. It doesn't give you a massive advantage over any other player because it's not infinite, you can lose it through troops dying etc as pointed out above. Frown on me all you want for buying game cash, but really you're all just mad because i pwned you in a BR. So it cost me money, tough ****, i laughed my ass all the way to my job, all the way through my shift, made back the money i spent, and still had my troops when i got back. So suck it! Money doesn't equal skill in this game, so there's nothing wrong with gamecash imo. It's great, keep it coming!

tbh...buying game cash can give you a pretty big advantage if you buy the max amount

(not saying its an unfair advantage...)

i remember a few rounds back when i was in DW Gadfly spent the whole round buying the max amount of land available as soon as it came up...he was rank 40 for weeks with only 4k land cos he didnt even need the income off land really...

The problem with game cash at the moment is that you can't really buy it last tick to royally screw your attacker anymore =/ What's the use of spending £20 to "pwn" him when he'll be getting like 50% of his troops back? :(

your get loads more for your money. Injury rate prolongues the affect of the cash boost also whereas previously you could spend 40 quid for cash and die overnight whereas now you get half or more of it back.

I totally disagree with game cash in some ways and agree in others.
It gives unfair advantage to ppl with lots of rl money to spend, but it does gives admin money to keep game running and motivate developement of our favourite game so its not all bad.

i was thinking about this the other day and i think you're missing a key part. Many of the 'top' players of this game put in a *lot* of time and effort to do as well as they can in this game. Well, i've put a lot of time and effort into my job in real life, to acquire money, to help pay for some BCs (in a fairly limited kind of way) so i don't see that as unfair, but simply as a different kind of hard work. Some work hard at the game, i work hard at my job ;). It's no more giving an advantage than it is to have someone who is contactable and someone isn't, or someone who can be online 10+ hours a day. In fact, i'd say Game cash is less useful than contactability and activity, as even with injuries it's still pretty much a fire/forget weapon. Unless you're like me, and mass the hell out of NLDs with it ;)
