Virtual Gaming Factory: independent supplier

EXTRA CONTENT

Have you ever thought to add something in this game ? For example , to bring something new in the market . I just imagined , what else can be brought ...

The most important thing would be water . Water can be then used in production , stores and restaurants . What can be produced with water ?

- alcohol & juice

- food ( example bread )

- medical supplies ( example body cream with thermal water )

- perfume and many more.

New buildings will be then available . The swimming pools and balneoclimateric pools could be an positive impact on the market . Gyms can also sell water for the training people . Water can be found in different heights under the earth . Some countries have for example under 10m , other under 100m. In some countries can be found thermal water , in other fresh water or salty water . And this is how we come to the second new product , salt . Salt can be found in mines => new mine will be added , or water ( oceans for example ) and lakes , rivers . What can be produced with salt ?

- food ( example sausages )

- medical supplies ( cream for the skin )

- chemical industry ( cleaners )

Salt and water need to be supplied by INDEPENDENT SUPPLIERS .

Another section , that should be added could be tourism .

EXAMPLE : I want to visit the salt mine of X ( Player ) from Y ( country ) . People will need buses or trains to be transported , or taxi . Maybe they have their own car => if not , more cars will be bought , more money will be spent . The public or private transport will be a boom in the market . Maybe they want to fly with airplanes => Building airports . In vacations , they will need to live somewhere in a different country , for example Greece . People then will need to rent a room or simply buy a house . This can be an extra industry , construction . Example : building of flats , appartments , big houses , castles .

The last thing , that should be added are countries . Even after the Sri Lanka update , new players are populating the countries and space will be lower , day by day.

This countries may be very interesting :

- Italy ( population more than 60 million , ~20 big cities , wealth level : medium - high )

- Romania ( population more than 16 million , ~10 big cities , wealth level low - medium )

- Austria ( population more than 8 million , ~5 big cities , wealth level high )

- Sweden ( population more than 9 million , ~8 big cities , wealth level very high )

- Portugal ( population more than 10 million , ~9 big cities , wealth level high )

- India ( population more than 1,25 billion , ~13 huge cities , wealth level low )

This image is exactly today's topic ! The road to succes in this game is very difficult , as I told you in the last episodes . Smart investments are required and the most important thing , time . The competition is tough , depending on the amount of products offered by this game . In the overprices episodes , we understood that we can't make deals with many natural resources , but there are some resource types , offered by the INDEPENDENT SUPPLIER . The independent suppliers offer you an unlimited amount of products . Very good ! Thank you ! That means , the game is not done ! The secret in this game is to build products , that require less resources , a low production cost and a good buying price .

LET'S USE OUR BRAINS IN A CONSTRUCTIVE WAY

First of all , we need to check the accessible resources .

SERVER : MARY

So , you need to choose a production type .

Hmmm... clothes ? or no , a farm ? What should I choose ? Maybe I build a distillery ...

YOU NEED TO STUDY THE MARKET FIRST !!!

If 500 people are producing clothes in your country , you don't start the production right there . You need to analyse first .

More about market analyse : "Virtonomics Episode 3" .

In my opinion , a good start will be a production , that requires only 1 resource . There can be used more than 1 too , but they need to be cheap . Be very careful by choosing the production !

Example :

Farms . Farms are maybe the most important production in this game . The only production unit you need is grain .

Grain is very cheap and you can easily afford it . Now , here comes the interesting part . What kind of farm should you build ? Do you want to produce milk , wool , meat , eggs , leather ? Or you want just to raise animals and sell them ? Both ways are good investments , but you will need the animals to start your farm . And this is how people sell them :

CHICKEN

PIG

SHEEP

COW

Wow , "smart boys" everywhere . They hate competition so much , that they set an OVERPRICE on this animals . Look at the prices of cows , impossible . Maybe if they see this post , they will change it ...

So , now it's time to use our brains . Start a risky , very expensive business ? Or analyse the market more ?

We choose the second option . Let's see what more can we build with grain .

Hmm , the beer production looks interesting from all of this . But you can choose whatever you want to produce . Remember : You have not so many choices to make !

Ok , so this server isn't that friendly with grain . But can the other server change something ?

SERVER LIEN :

Let's take the same example with farms in LIEN .

Price of grain :

So the suppliers price is the same , interesting . But let's see the animals , maybe they have better prices per unit :

CHICKEN

PIG

SHEEP

COW

All the animals have good prices . You can easily start by raising them for mass production of milk , eggs , meat , wool or leather . From this point of view , you should start your farms in server LIEN . You have the eggs , meat , milk , wool and/or leather . What can you do with them ?

SHEPHERDS ( SHEEP )
