Thread: What price do you value a City Hall at?
Im the head Architect of TPE on the Sunrunner. Over the past week Ive been creating all of the compnents required for a City Hall. Im at the point where ive enough components to make 3 possibly 4 city halls.
This is due to the great team-work within out guild of harvesting the amount of resources required.
Ive made 3 just in-case of any critical errors on the actual day - but of course their wont be any!
So my question is what price do you think I could sell 1 city hall for? In my opinion there is more to them than a PA Hall and there aint goner be that many of them! but there will be a lot of people wanting them!
So I ask - what do we think is a good price to sell one for?

i was thinking 750K.......i hope that archtiects wil stick together on these new strcutures and not just charge pennies on the dollar...
Just keep in mind that people starting cities probably have MILLIONS and it isnt just one person but 5-6 forming these towns so they can pool there money...
I would REALLY REALLY like to get it up to between 1-2 million but i know some kid on the sgtreet will be selling them, for 50k
Yes, but the economy is such that people do have millions of credits. Weaponsmiths can buy themselves 4 holos without even thinking twice about it. No need to sell yourself completely short, others sure don't.
With that said, people are to use to taking a dump on architects when it comes time to build things. 500k seems about right to me for the city hall pricing. It is what people will pay, if they pay at all. Most cities will have an architect or two.
80k materials or so to make one of these... and if you crit fail thats 160k mateirals. so at 500k thats a little over 3 cr unit for all that work making 20 walls etc..
oo remembre they will prolly fix our crit fails this next patch...
Ho humm... 500k-750k seems fair to me.. but it will all boil down to supply and demand and I suspect demand will be limited to 40-50 cities per server with a couple of hundred architects trying to compete for the business... guess what is going to happen.
I think we should all agree to fix it around 1mil. Like all buildings these will not deteriorate and only a handfull will ever be ordered unless Sony decides to give us more planets to build on and consolodates a few servers (thats because the pop is not growing anymore).
I believe it would be a disservice for us not to place a high price on them.

yes we should not give away everyting we get new for nothing, 3cr per unit is way to less anyways.
750k-1mio seems fine
but i am sure we will see some undercutting idiots very fast. /sigh
ask a Dev 
1 mil to place a CITY? sounds like we are getting ripped off, but i will charge 700k for the city hall. cause no one is gonna buy one for 1 mill even though the structure itself, aside from the resources, is worth more. think about it, how happy would you be if you could buy a vegas for 1 million bucks?
