Still need to know;

The person in City Hall that creates the supergroup has a couple of options I'm not sure about;

1. Pay Rent
2. Change Influence to Presitge

Not sure on the exact wordings of those and I've not clicked them incase it does something irreversible.

My questions:

How much is rent for a small base gonna cost? Does it tell me before it takes off the prestige?

and

Can I convert my Influence to Prestige? Surely it can't be 1 for 1. Does it give you any options such as how much you want to convert?

Thanks for any answers to the above questions.

My SG has a small 4 room base (Entrance, Workshop, Control and Power) but is still short of a Mainframe and a Basic Generator. Cost of those is gonna be around 375,000 prestige and its taken me a week of getting Prestige to reach around 30,000.

Also, is salvage carrying capped at 9 pieces of each salvage?

[/ QUOTE ]If you have rent to pay, it says "Your base rent <amount> was due on <date and time>" whenever you log on.

[/ QUOTE ]1 million to 2000 IIRC.

Hmm... Just wondered about the salvage because I've had 9 Arachnos guns for ages now and in a mission earlier, it said Salvage gained Arachnos gun, but my salvage stayed at 9.

As for the 1,000,000 inf for 2,000 prestige.
You serious that's the figure?

On missions at the moment, I get 1000 inf and 275 prestige for completion.
1,000,000 : 2,000 (500:1) is rather a harsh ratio compared to 1000: 275 (close to 4:1)

Ah well, guess its gonna take me about 9 more months to get a basic generator and mainframe. :-(

Yeah, but it stops people from grabbing their 50's with OOOODLES of influence and making an instant-uber base right off the bat. I know Laustin has over 30million influence.

yeah, but it's still stupid system, because to accually get the good stuff for the bases you have to gain lots of badges, and then collect lots of salvageto make these one off things that then cost massive amounts. this means that it always going to take a while for people to accually make an "uber base" though again i think they where mostly thinking of the US when they did this system, not here.

Yeah, a SG with alot of 50's would be able to make a kick [censored] base instantly if the conversion rate was better.
