So I was thinking, why would people want to go TL and Omnicron (besides their specialized softwares) when their easier rev activation would just nuke them back down to starting like everyone else.

I propose that after a round reset, players get to keep a portion of the standing they've collected (the mega corps don't just forget about all their star employees with each reset, and players aren't going to lose their "skills" after the virus goes off).

Maybe like 5%?  Then, TL and Omnicron aligned players would receive a bonus to the amount of standing they carry over to each round, maybe 7.5% or something instead of 5% (balancing required on the carry-over, obviously) to give them a little extra reason to want to start revs.

That way, players don't lose -all- their work each reset (just most of it), and the players aligned with those who want to start rev will have some more incentive to do start it as it puts them at a slight advantage at the beginning of new rounds.

This would obviously also count for negative reps for the factions you aren't aligned to as well, although right now those negative reps don't do anything (I don't think...)

I joined Omnicron because I always wanted to be in it (Go America!)

It prevents you from chaging factions easily.

Well yeah, forgot about that... doesn't reset your negative when you switch does it  :laugh:
