Increase Wages for In-Game Jobs to Improve Economic Balance and Roleplay Experience
Increase the payment for jobs, I'm assuming you're trying to fix the economy in the game, but it only makes doing anything 100x harder than it should have to be. Currently if you want to work as a civ, you can either make small 20 bucks for a lot of work at the donut place etc, or you can join target and make a few bucks depending on your rank/level, and while target used to be good, it is now one of the worst, not only have you changed the technology sale area to "fix" the npc spawning, they take longer to walk over to the register and now you get between 30-28 dollars per sale instead of what you should've been making with your rank, I'm corporate and as such I should be making 70 dollars but now I am doing less than half. It doesn't even make it worth leveling up as you will still be stuck with a pretty s***** payment for the time you have to put in, I have for the past weeks put in about 1-2 hours in game working at target every day and make about 20k a day pre-update as a corporate level employee, and that was okay, but with the medical bills that come with target, you can end up paying 20k for medical bills because some rando decided to shoot up target. You have then spent 2 hours for nothing whatsoever, and with the price increases you have done to the game, the guns cost quite a bit making it so you have to spend at least 30 minutes or more working which isn't available half the time, or just go without a gun and miss roleplaying action, instead of roleplaying you end up having to do a store simulator for multiple real life hours, like I get that you want to simulate a good economy but I'm not trying to come home from work, only to have to do 7 hours of work in a game so that I then can do some good rp, it just takes the fun out of everything, especially since more or less all jobs at target are currently broken, that's the only reason people chose to go to electronics and work because it's faster and actually works half the time, now nothing but electronics is working, and all doors to target are shut for some reason and not openable anymore, it just makes everything a much larger hassle than what it has to be. My suggestion is either you make employees at target earn more than what it is now, as well as increase the donut pay etc so it is actually worth it, or you decrease the prices of guns and cars again, because stuff is only getting more expensive and we are only getting less money for our time, like you don't have to simulate the current world economics in the game to make stuff realistic, but really, increase payment for jobs, if I have put many weeks, days and many hours into leveling up to corporate at target, let me be able to get an actual good wage, and on top of that, if you have maxed out your citizen rank, increase the pay from 4 dollars to maybe 20 dollars every 10 minutes, even though it would not do much as it is still very little, it would do a lot more than 4 dollars every 10 minutes. But seriously, INCREASE THE WAGES OR TASK PAYMENTS A LOT FOR TARGET AND OTHER JOBS, PLEASE I BEG YOU, we spend hours working in the game when we could be spending hours roleplaying and actually having fun in the game instead, I honestly beg you.
