Denied [All Main Servers Suggestion] Increase town size max area

In Game Name:

What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:

All Main Servers​

Short title for your suggestion:

Increase town size max area​

What are you suggesting:

When placing a town, change the max size from 200x200 to 250x250​

Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:

Going to be honest, dramatically increasing the price for towns has me, a town builder, very sad and upset. If we aren’t going to decrease the rank/town prices due to the economy, then the next logical thing is to give them more benefits. Changing the max area you can create a protected town to 250x250 (just 250 extra protected flat area) would dampen the absurd town prices these days and maybe salvage the already dying town builders of ECC.​

Other information:

Initially was going to suggest 300x300 being the max, but 250x250 is significant enough.​

Plugin or custom addition:

One suggestion per form:

I Understand.​

 

If you have a better idea, suggest it. People can still make 200x200 towns if they so choose, but when the second town is a little over 1mil & additional towns after 7 are 3mil a piece, towns should be buffed a bit. Yes, people use them for shops & farms, but efficient people build them higher & not farther (most shops I've seen are usually 1-2 towns big already). The ones who really need the additional towns are those who like to build

 

3mil for a town after #7 might not seem that bad for 15-20% of the active playerbase (being generous with that amount), but for those who don't want to partake in p2w will really struggle w/o magic tools. I'm confident players won't rent out their magic tools to newer players/those without specific features. I'm not saying that we should lower rankup prices, but just make it where there is a little more benefit.

I say this as one of the few remaining dedicated builders of ECC & someone who has donated thousands to ECC. In all honesty, ECC has a bit of an identity problem now that the economy has tanked; although we are an economy server, we really aren't anything else besides that. Building & town creations was usually our secondary (which was what made me stay tbh). If a new player were to join ECC (one that is more or less a builder), I'm sure they'd be overwhelmed & quickly give up if they don't go the route of p2w. Making it where players can have a little more land for the rankup seems like a good compromise for the overwhelming prices for new players.

And for the decreasing land, not only do we have MN, but maybe (if it is possible with our hardware) we can possibly extend the worldboarders by 5k in each direction.

Bottom line, economy is still fucked, and a change is necessary rn, but there has to be some compromise that won't screw it up more without fucking over newer players

 

Except the rate of current max tools versus magic tools is astronomical compared to old max tools and star tools. I'm not suggesting lowering the rankup prices, but just give towns a smaller boost. Increased rankups distanced the newer players even more, so a slight increase in town max size might give some incentive
