Some people get so caught up in their daily PSU schedule that they forget to go to the Casino and get their daily silver coin. So I thought of an idea that may work:

Instead of having to go to the Casino and getting your daily coin, a silver coin is automatically put in your coin storage every day. Personally I would like this idea. How do you feel about this?

ya, I like this,and also have the option to gamble in your room, like a virtual slot or roullete from your room console. And you should be able to install and play PSO on your home console too. Maybe thats a bit much but hey...

Its a good idea, the problem though would be inflation of the casino economics. It would make everything cost more to purchase from the shop, or everything at the shops would become worthless. If they lowered the daily amount that you received that would solve it, or raise the price of items it would do it as well. But getting 1s everyday without doing anything else I think would cause more problems than it would fix...

not really becasue you would get one every day if you remember to go to the casino, not everyone is on every day or remebers but alot do, it wouldn't affect much.

psst....I think he meant 1 bronze coin per day and not 1 silver coin per day....

no he says silver, right there in the second line, but I think he means you can only get one, you can't get an automatic one then go to the casino o pick up the one you would usually get, it all just goes to casino storage.

Sounds good to me. I forget to pick mine up all the time. I'd have so much silver by now if I didn't.

That's right, only one per day even with the automatic storage system.

Maybe if you login that day or something. Not if you don't log in at all, otherwise people would leave for a month and come back with 30 silver from doing absolutely nothing.

I think that's a good compromise. :yes:

the whole idea behind going to pick up your coin is that youll be tempted to gamble it. its casino basics. if you cant spend 1 minute to go get it, youre just lazy! :-)

Agreed. Also, the game is so easy at this point with increased PA leveling and increased experience from MAG that if this trend continues pretty soon your character will auto-run White Beast when you are unable to play.

I just leave one of my chars in the casino and log in with them once a day. Not too much hassle.

This is exactly my point. Everyone would have so much silver that all the items would be worthless basically.

they don't want to reward players for not playing. the whole point is to keep people signing in. as for saving it everyday it's a matter of dicipline.

Yes, obvious plan of Sonic Team. But considering the massive failures they have delivered...i think this automatic casino coin system should be in the game.

I think its a good idea... Inflation and item value wouldnt be too much of a problem because if u take a close look... just how many items in the casino at this point in time are even sellable??? Most of them u cant sell anyway *shrugs*

hmm i have an idea. it would only be for moatoob missions but on s and s2 missions they could add another item in for getting an s rank. say a doll based on the casino girls which when you get lets say every 5 or 10 you can trade them in for a silver coin. and like pa frags they can be traded or sold. this would icnrease maotoob missions, and somewhat fix the stupidity of the 1 silver a day casino thing.

The items are not sellable or tradeable, they have zero value to begin with aside from personal value.

you're just making yourself much lazier...with that idea.

i only know of 2 sellable/tradeable items from the casino, the clothing set and the parts set.

Good idea, but I really don't mind taking 2 mins to run to Moatoob and grab my coin.

If you want it, then go to the casino. If you forgot it, then too bad. Deal with it.

the game is too hard, they need to make it easier, jk.
Sometimes I am just too lazy, or bored. No really the only reason I don't go to the casino everyday is because it has nothing I want. They should update the casino with useful stuff, not random weapons with no value. If they upadte what the casino has to offer with useful stuff, and maybe some new games, I see no reason for anyone not going to gamble. It is not that people are lazy, but that they lack motivation.

That'd be nice, then I wouldn't have to miss out on the week ofcoins I couldn't grab while I was out of town. :wacko:

Some people simply dont know about the casino though, Might help gain awareness.

ive thought of this also, as im sure many have. inflation would definitely be a problem, so instead of an automatic silver everyday no matter what, what if there was just a three-ish day grace period or something?

that way, if you forget your coin one day, you can log in the next day and get 2 coins... but if you forget your coin and the next time you go to the casino is a week from then, you'll have 3 coins, not 7

to me, that seems to be the most fair... it will keep people going to the casino often, award the dedicated players with extra coins (keeping better control of inflation), but not causing problems and frustration with players trying to find time every day to get to the casino... (and when you miss the timer by 2 minutes lol)

btw, sry if this was already said... i pulled a noob trick and only read the first 5ish posts :/

Inflation? How can you inflate something that can't be exchanged? :|

lol well i guess i never thought of it that way :P

but as goldbrease mentioned, the clothing and cast parts are sellable/tradeable... and who knows what else will eventually be put in the casino that is S/T-able...

i have no clue how much value those things have as far as meseta goes, i didnt even know they were S/T-able... but one item is enough to actually concern coin/meseta exchange rates or whatever

i dont think some people are understanding the OP on this. they're not saying you'd get EXTRA coins. just the coins of the day that you would normally get if you went to the casino and got them for that day. all they're saying is the casino will automatically put that ONE coin you'd normally get in your coin box instead of you having to go there yourself and get it for that day. that wouldn't change anything at all except make sure you always get your coin for that day.

i like this idea but i dont think they need to change it. i know there are some people who have work and other daily activities and can't get their coin for the day. but on the other hand i can't see how taking 5 minutes of your day to just log on and get your coins is too hard so i think the system itself should just stay how it is, if they change it to an auto system then thats cool too.

and the clothes/parts only take about 1 week of saveing up silver to buy so there not realy worth that much.

I'm sure many understand that point. What others are saying is you (not you personally) should not be rewarded for being lazy and forgetful. If people don't want to get onto the game, they should not get a coin. People who want casino items either play in the casino to get the item or save up to get the item by going to the casino daily.

If you don't get your coin personally, there's no reason for you to be awarded it. It's just a part of the game that you choose not to play. It's like saying "well I know if I did one mission a day, I would get meseta, but what about days I don't have time to play missions? I want that meseta handed to me whether I play the mission or not. Oh, but I only want the meseta from that one mission I would have run anyway if I had extra time." or saying "I do one Valley of Carnage C a day to level my PM's battle stat, but today I forgot to run VoC C. I think ST should give my PM that battle stat even if I forget to run the mission, because I would have run it if I had remembered/had the time."

I like the idea, specially for people that can't get on the game to get thier's not because they are lazy or anything else but what about the ones that have things they want there and do try to go everyday to get thier coin but then run into problems (like server not letting u on) so you miss out.
