xKostyan. You already suggested that (or similar). Important the CEO should not before to set the tax or can set it to 0 as Kostyan mentioned. Can the CEO actually see who of the corp members donated artifacts?
Issue came up in Corp chat among corpies. And general excuse was, everyone keeps forgetting to donate before logging off for the day or something along that line.
I am playing another F2P game atm and in clan page, every player can manually set their contribution. Makes it so much easier.
details on who has contributed how much so far and at what % rate can be quickly found etc. if a browser game could do it, so can Star Conflict right ?
Understandable. But Iridium is of no use right now (except I think changing the corp logo or something…). So there is not much reason to force/remind people to contribute other than seeing the players interest in the corporation. All the older corporation like NASA have Iridium from players that are no longer with the corp.
Still, I agree there should be an easier way to contribute and have it automatized. Maybe they can add it by the time it becomes more important.
A tax is great, because those pay in the most who get the most. So if you only play a couple of games a day your artifact reserves won’t get dried up because there is a mandatory automatic collecting mechanism. But as Kostyan said, T1 loot is worth 1 artifact sometimes, that would be mean to take.
Also, would be beautiful to have a use for this, we need some resource sinks so corpplay becomes even more important.
That’s because ‘tax’ is a fancy word for ‘theft’. Nobody agrees to having their property stolen.
More seriously, this could seriously backfire. Tax could push people away from Corps because they feel getting Mk IV gear is important, while those in Corps now get frustrated that their progression has been stunted. That means more time spent grinding lower tiers to get a surplus of Iridium to counteract the tax, which works against our collective goal of “more pilots in T4 / T5”.
And as I said, Corporate Iridium has no value now. Give it value and players will want to donate.

Thats the point. Right now, you play in a corp to play in sector conquest, and to have a general community. If you give iridium some value, something that benefits the whole corporation, people will accept taxes as well.

Give the Iridium some value and you don’t NEED taxes, that’s the point!
If I want access to a Wolfpack Hangar, I’ll sink Iridium into the Corp’s bank. However, if I decide that I really need a Mk IV module or two for my T5 lineup, I do NOT want my Corp stealing my Iridium.
If the CEO of a Corp really has such a big issue with his members being “selfish” with their Iridium, he can get off his arse and do the extra grinding off his own bat. Corps pushing to acquire communal stuff is one thing, but no Corp should be demanding more than their members are willing to give.

If the officers can keep track of everyone’s donations, maybe it would work. If not, it wouldn’t. Try to think in 100+ people corps.
