next_version has a different rule set where you have to buyout the last 5 shares.

Just so you know, the AI doesn't have any preference for human targets (below Manager, it tries to avoid humans, in fact)

Are you playing on the next_version branch?

We'll look into it.

Check out the next_version branch if you want to see how it will work in Beta 9, which is sort of a hybrid where players have to buyout your last 5 shares at once. As for now, if you don't like this option, you can play without it.

Offworld Trading Company Beta 8 Change Log in Offworld Trading Company Offworld Forums

Mercy is for the weak. Crush your enemies -- and your friends! -- one share at a time with the new "No Buyout!" Mode in Offworld Trading Company Beta 8! The new "No Buyout" mode makes it so that rival corporations must buy out your shares one at a time instead of all at once. When your shares are out, you are eliminated from the game.

I'm not sure that's true - the point of this tournament is To see if winning strategies can emerge, and we've just started to mess around with the mode.

Hi all, we are hopeful to get Beta 8 out early next week, and I'd like to get a 4p tournament using the No Buyout rules started as soon as possible, so keep your eyes out for a sign-up thread on Monday (or possibly earlier). Would love to get games started on that Tuesday, so please be ready!

yeah, that's a weird situation. It looks sort of like his price is correct because he is basically a full owner of the other two players.

If anyone wants to try next-version, I can play sometime around 4:30 or 5:00 EST.

ouch!

Reply to No Buyout option in Offworld Trading Company Offworld Forums

If you can buyout your own shares one at a time, the game would basically never end. The old system got around this problem by forcing full buyoutS which could not be countered (even if you have a bunch of cash).

Reply to No Buyout option in Offworld Trading Company Offworld Forums

Thanks, really good feedback. The grieving problem is fixable by letting the AI fix a player's bad arrangements, which currently it's not doing under the subsidiary rules. The issue I'm concerned about is the issue of pushing out a leading player early by ganging up. I think I'll increase the stock boost you get from owning other people and also increase a player's stock price more as other players buy into them so that the first few shares are a lot more c

one piece of advice - if they are in D debt, they can't buy anything on the black market, so punish them for it. Try Scavenger perhaps?
