Idea: New tech for economy based players in multiplayer.

This tech, after research, would show you the real time credit/sec, metal/sec, and crystal/sec of your allies.

After another upgrade it would show you these stats for opponents with scout vessels in a world colonized by an opponent.  Only that opponents  information would be displayed, so it would behoove the smart economy player to ensure that they have a guage on the opposing player's economy by maintaining scouts on all opponents.

Im juts wondering... Does speculation works in this game? I mean, like buying a LOT of metal only to make its price increase and hurt your enemy´s economy who wanted to buy some metal : p

I would say that rarely it can slow an opponent down.  If you have a bigger economy to be able to do this you likely will win anyways :)

Yup! Thats for sure :grin:

 

But, what if we talk about 2 players whose economy is pretty similar? the first who buys it faster than the other will make the price to boom up!

 

Would be curious to test it in a future though.
