=== Prestige Purchasing Efficiency === | |||
* Black Chicken Studios does use a "pay more, get more" model for Prestige. | |||

* As of the game's launch in February 2023, there are approximately 141 Belles in game. To have dock space for all these Belles costs 4,990 Prestige (10 buys) and leaves one with 9 empty berths. The smallest amount of Prestige a player can purchase (rather than going for the largest package) is 3,200 + 1,200 + 550 + 260 (leaving the player 220), costing $84.96. (This also has the side effect of increasing the player's inventory by 750 slots.) | * As of the game's launch in February 2023, there are approximately 141 Belles in game.

* Slots | * Slots not marked as auto-unlocking at an HQ level must be purchased. The minimum amount of Prestige for this is 499 + 499 (two repair berths) + 499 + 499 + 499 (three R&D/ production) + 599 (orange enhanced R&D/production) = 3,094. Simply buying the 3,200 Prestige package is the most cost-effective way to obtain this even though it leaves the player with extra Prestige ($49.99). The minimum purchase would be 1,200 + 1,200 + 550 + 260 or 3,210. That's $54.96, slightly more than the 3,200 package. | ||
=== Monthly Membership === | |||
* This refers exclusively to the LON Commissioner Membership which offers time-reduction benefits of 25% increase in beneficial stats gained (e.g. relationship points, experience) and 25% decrease in time taken (e.g. R&D, repair). | |||
* The package is 1,000 Prestige for 30 days. | |||
* Due to the "buy more, get more per dollar" model above, the most "efficient" way to maintain the membership is buying the largest package. | |||
* This works out to $14.28 per month if Prestige is used solely on the membership. Whether such is worth it remains up to the player--this page is purely to provide information. | |||
* If the player instead opts for the $19.99 package of 1,200 Prestige every thirty days, by the fifth month one will have banked enough extra Prestige if not used on anything else to obtain another month. The cost with this method is $16.66. | |||
