Compound Interest for GP

WARNING WALL OF TEXT :
What if the higher rank you got the more GP you earned? Say at the Butter bar, the amount of GP you earn per match goes up 10%. Now obviously because Z8 needs an incentive before they will even look at the idea, as I said, the only way you can get interest on your GP, is if you are higher rank. The more you play, the more interest, and more GP. The more you play, the more you become addicted and give Z8 your money, seems like a win win to me :). I understand that this would probably ( who am I kidding, definitely) give rise to more farmers who would then farm vast amounts of GP.


Solution and rebuttal: First of all, most farmers are already addicted to this game and have kick ass accounts with lots of ZP weapons, so it's not like they would stop spending money. In fact they would probably spend even more money trying to win the GP weapons. Think about it, the more they will play, the higher chance they have of winning those weapons, and they will become addicted to spinning crates( even more addicted at least), and keep on throwing their money at you Z8. They won't be satisfied with winning the GP crate guns, they will want more(remember they are addicted). Second of all, you could put a GP cap on how much money you can earn per day for each rank, lets say, at like 100,000 GP per day you must be either a silver major, or a general. A marshall could be earning as much as 150K a day? These are all options and how strict Z8 will be with the GP cap is a mystery. I think personally, I would like it so at the very least, a captain rank could earn 20,000 GP per day, or like 700 to 1000 GP per match. He11, I would even accept 10,000 a day.


Statistics and Math stuff:
Now if you look at it, 700 to 1000 GP per match is only about a 100%-120% increase,IF you can earn 350 GP per match on a good day. let's say that once you hit First lieutenant 1 you can start to increase your GP. Let' see how much GP you can earn at Captain if at every rank you had a 6.25% increase in your GP rates. 16 ranks later, starting at the First Lieutenant 1 and finishing at Captain 1, you have a 100 percent increase. Here's another example, starting at First Lieutenant 1, finishing at Major 1, you can earn 875 GP per match or a 150% increase from what you were earning at first lieutenant 1. Playing 30 matches a day earning 875 GP per match means that at Major 1 you can earn 26250 GP per day if 30,00 is your cap limit and you only play 30 matches and earn 875 GP per match, each match. Another example at Brigadier General 1, 48 ranks later, 48x6.25=300, you have a 300% increase in GP, meaning that earning 350 GP a match at First Lieutenant 1 now leaves you with 1050 per match and 31,500 GP per day, if you play 30 matches. As you can see for a whole lot of ranks, thats not a huge increase in GP from when you were a Major 1. So, I think that at that rank you should get like 100% bonus along with your 300% for ranking up to Brigadier General 1, so now its 400% leaving you with the following: 350 per match x 4= 1400, 30 matches a dayx1400 equals 42,000 GP. That sounds reasonable to me, especially considering how much time they've put in to ranking up. If this idea actually takes off, I will create another thread with an 0fficial table detailing the increases in your GP, and just how much you can earn per day, starting at First Lieutenant 1 going to Marshall.
