Hack into the bank

Postby [OSX]-Luffy- on Mon, 18 Apr 2011 20:03:40 +0000

So, I'm sure you all know we have that hack into the bank page, cost 5 energy, you have 1/10 chance of succeeding etc. The problem I've found with it is that I have max IQ and this is my highest result from the page.
You're in, and you've transfered 138 into your PayPal account!
You log off, succesfully, without a guilt in the world.


For 65 more energy I could try hacking into the treasury at 85% and gain 700k rather than just 138. Or I could just hack someone on my hitlist, get some experience, more CD for me AND my gang and have a 100% chance of completion.

Point being, hacking into the bank is currently entirely useless, there is no motivation for users to want to try and complete the unique challenges, but I don't think the result from the completion is worth the effort into completing it. Is there a way that Hacking the bank could become more useful? Higher output of money/success rate?

I just wasted over 1000 energy on that, trying to get 22 hacks for my daily unique challenge <_<
Surely this could be made more profitable, like 20k if you succeed? or even make it have a similar % to daily hacks, that'd help a lot too!
I'm basically Myckaal 2.0. We've got the same basic features, only I'm faster and more handsome.

Wouldn't like .5% or 1% be better dwarf? Otherwise it would be too easy for that money imo

it would be 5% of the already 1/10 chance, but then it would make it worth it imo but 1% would probably be better than 5

What a crock of shit!!

You have a chance of 1/10 of a succesful hacking!
at a cost of:
You must have atleast 5.0 energy
You must have atleast 100 Credits

So you use 1 ec which cost ~$450k plus the additional $1k to do ten hacks for a return of at best maybe $200.

Therefore you want a 10% chance to get 450k just to break even.

Lets face it the bonuses for the unique challenges arent exciting... woot you got 60k or 500 webs. Big deal. For the energy just used - pointless.

Hacking the bank = another useless factor in this game at the current time.
Move along numpty!
