See this is the problem with a full RCE system...
What you're saying is pretty right.
In fact, you're basically describing the 2.0.
The problem isn't so much where the game is, if you don't take into account where it comes from.
I mean, the game in its current state may seems normal for someone who started recently, right after the 2.0 or not long before, and of course taking into account the time he spent on it.
For someone who started long before, but only played a few weekends here and there, the change will not have the same impact as for someone who invested a lot of time.
The first thing I regret is that MA didn't clearly describe the change.
The only thing they said about it was some time after 2.0.
something like "players who cycled xx PED, enjoyed a 97% return".
Now we have to interpret that...
"Enjoyed a 97% return" basically means that from now on, we'll have to be very happy with 97%, because that's the best we can get.
Because that's what it is.
It's an average, so we could say some get 50% and some 147%?
But the facts show that's not true.
I know a lot of people who lose a lot and very quickly, but I'm still waiting for the only person who will tell me that they win a lot and very quickly (playing).
Just check the returns of all the people you know, and you will see that they are all the same.
Because returns are flat as fuck, exactly how I said in OP.
And besides, the major problem is that you can still lose extravagant amounts of money very quickly while playing.
And if at the same time you can't win, then there's something really wrong here...
It's just maths...
We still get very bad returns, close to 50% sometimes.
So I'm just wondering where are the 150% returns (or at least 147%).
Logically, positive returns should be almost inversely proportional to negative returns, and should happen just as often.
But the way it actually works is very far from that.
Just to take myself as an example, for almost 3 years with this avatar, I've been playing a lot, almost every day, several hours.
And over 30 months, I've had 29 negative months and 1 positive month.
So for me, basically there is something wrong in the way this change was made, without clearly explaining the reality of it.
