FBN Agents and Everything You Wanted to Know! Started by: Murdoc on Nov 26, '11 20:03

They're intended to make you pretty much the same amount of money as an NPM did. Or so I hear. I think the info/JB's etc etc are just added bonuses.

i recieved dl saying he tributed 12units and i sold 18,

does it go up a unit every hour

Report Post Tip

Hmmmm

Confused much?

The amount of units my CA seems to give me is kinda sporadic. For example, the first set was a respectable 9 units which then rose to 14 on the second and 16 on the third. However, coming to him today he has only provided me with 1 unit.

Not sure if i'm doing something wrong.

Report Post Tip

wait it out my guy kind of did the same thing only with 2 units and the more I waited the more it went up afterwards I think it went up to 10 but I sold it because I needed the cash right away.

I wonder if its best to wait it out before selling the units. Hopefully they don't disappear and they continue to stack up. I'll test my theory and let you guys know how it pans out.

I held onto mine until the time ran out and I didnt lose anything.

Mine has gone up by 2 units everyday.  Plus from time to time he grabs units from others and gives them to me.

Report Post Tip

Mine brings me warm cookies and milk, tucks me in at night and warms my toilet seat.  :) TOP THAT.

Based on my financial advisors calculations, it appears that this FBN agent will end up making about 5 million in a safe bet, it seems that hes been bringing in units more consistantly as of late and using those numbers thats what it breaks down to in a safe estimate.

Just thought I'd share this with the rest of the public so you can make your decision. Seems like the long hes alive the more units he brings in so keep that in mind also.

The longer you keep the units for, the more he makes for you. 2 days in a row, I logged in and sold straight from getting home from work. It gave me 16 units all 3 times. The 3rd day, I had to do some shopping so came online an hour later, it gave me 18 units. The 4th day, I came home from work and it was at 16. As I had nothing to do due to being on annual leave the next day, I let it continue going up, and it rose to 22, then 27 units. When I sold, it had around 4 hours to go before kicking out new units.

It seems the base level (ie what it originally kicks out) is variable, but it rises throughout the time. My guess, is that by the time 20 hours have gone by, the units will be the same, no matter if the base unit was 6 or 16. The idea is to keep hold of your units and let them grow!

Murdoc, I would like to see your stats that bought you to 5mil (if you dont mind). By my calculation so far, mine will make me crica 2.7-3 million, and that is with me always selling at over 8.5k. So considering you can get credits for circa 300k, 10 credits mean mine cost 10mil. So I am just about going to break even. Add in the free MIA kill at the end (worth 300k), essentially he will then make 3-3.3mil. A slight profit. But worth it for the free jail breaks!

Report Post Tip

figure that you start with 12 units on the first day increasing  by 2 units each day for 31 days that gives you a total of 1310 units all together (assuming it continues to grow by 2 units each day and doesn't hit a ceiling) 1310 x 4000 if selling at 8500 or more like you said produces a profit of 5,240,000, assuming he caps at 60 units he makes 1268 units altogether, selling that at 4k profit (8500 or better) translates to 5,072,000.

Now if he caps at a different number or increases in a different way then these numbers aren't quite accurate but you can see where the numbers come from.

Report Post Tip

I also forgot to add that my FBN randomly but not always picks up 3-9 units here and there and I get to sell those on top of what he makes in a day. So we will have to stay tuned to find out for sure the total but I haven't factored in to play the money made from those sales as of yet because I wasn't sure if those could be relied upon of if it had to do with some glitches in the introduction of the feature.

Report Post Tip

Must apologise Murdoc, I failed to notice that it rises by 2 each day.

Also, if you do not sell your units, it still produces the next batch, unlike the DFPs. That should encourage you to keep hold of them and only sell when it is 9k+

5. If your crew leader should pass due to untimely death, your agent remains with you as he is your personal agent. His home city won't change but he still remains yours to manipulate.

 

actually with superx's death today, mine became an mia instead of a ca.  so a bosses death means no more personal agent

Talk with HelpDesk or try to get a hold of admin, its not supposed to be that way I'm dealing with the same issue right now. I think it might have something to do with the new management feature but I can't be sure.

Report Post Tip

thanks have dropped a line to DeathKnight and hopefully wil be referred onto admins, 54 coke gone with it

Report Post Tip

helpdesk were unsure if this was an error or not when i mailed them, waiting confirmation

Report Post Tip

CAs should stay with you even if you switch crews.

There are a few kinks that we hope to have worked out ASAP. The kinks are caused by switching crews, or getting sponsorship revoked. We should have these fixed in the next day or so. In the mean time - your CA's are accumulating drugs, so when they are back you will have the proper amount sitting waiting for you.

True story thank you for your hard work!

Anyone get a double tribute yet? I got it twice now.
