Currently tech is almost useless after a certain point and so is infra. Tech increases happiness until level 10. Tech affects economy if you have uranium until level 30. Tech affects purchases until level 100. (level 9 aircraft) Tech affects military effectiveness until level 300. After this it is completly useless.
At a point buying infra makes you lose money due to the ukeep costs being higher than the money from the new citizens you get. Not sure what this point is.

|
As a new feature I think it's better to start with a smaller discount and work up if necessary

make it .01%
That way, you don't hit that problem as quickly and the real benefit would go to the larger nations who are at the point where everything is useless. Let's face it, when you pay that mush in bills, 3% (300*.01%) is quite a bit.

This is quite a good suggestion, but maybe make the lowered cost per level be .03% or so, high enough to be meaningful but low enough to keep infra costs from being completely negated.

This is almost as good as an idea as that time I came up with the idea to have optional ads in game that when enabled give you more money. Wonder what happened to that... |
Are you being sarcastic, because that idea was added to the game...

Very good idea. This would definitely be a good thing. 0.01% through 0.05% should be good, in my opinion.

I was the no, and I was distracted by your sig and picked it by accident. <M>
Kidding, I voted yes, it makes sense that improved technology would lead to lower maintenance costs. IMPLEMENT THIS PLZ!
