Establishment, get your own piece of Bootleggers. Is0l4t3d

Another new update! No it isn’t ‘Armwresting’, nor the ‘find player’ update and neither the ‘suicide’ update. What update did I forgot? The Establishment feature, ofcourse! Indeed, Sabin has been very busy last few weeks. What is the new Establishment update? Let’s find out!

“Prices have returned to a normal level for unowned Establishments.” Sabin stated in his Game forum topic. Many Bootlegger players have spended over 30 million-bootlegger cash to gain a piece of land. Did they lose their investment, after this update? The answer is: No.
The Land prices of unowned lands (only!) have been decreased, so new (or just killed) players are now able to buy a piece of land for way less money as it used to be. A new player cannot spend 30 million at the start of his bootleggers career, so Sabin has decreased the prices of unowned land. A brand new piece of land has currently a value between $1,300,000 and $3,200,000.
Establishment looks much like the Federalbank. The Land value will raise 3% each day. How more landowners one state has, how more the value (in %) will raise.
If a landowner has been killed, their land will drop and the land value will be set at $1,300,000 till $3,200,000. Sabin is trying to avoid that pieces of land are getting to expensive again.
Why should you buy a piece of land instead of starting federal banking?
Land values will raise automatic by 3%. So it is very easy to make money at the long termed. The federal bank option doesn’t give 3% automatic each day , but you are able to withdraw money from the bank account when you are in need of cash. Both options give 3% extra, and both are a different way to mange your money.
Establishment got introduced this round at the end of September. More establishment features were promised. Otherwise three months have been passed, and still no further build features have been made. Owners are currently able to build garages at their lands. Those garages aren’t big money makers at all. Your cars do get protected against carthieves, but the daily income is about $1-$200 dollars. I advice not to buy a garage. If you want to keep your car protected against carthieves, Park your Duesenberg in one of you neighbour their garages. This is way cheaper then building a garage at the price of $500,000. Sabin is bringing a lot of new updates into the game. therefore I hope he doesn’t forget a new Establishment build feature.
Establishment update was it worth it?
In my opinion, yes! After being killed, I never would have bought land at those expensive prices. $30,000,000 which would have meant that I had to sell 300 points. Way too expensive for me. Currently, I am the proud owner of land in New York. Bought at the price of $2,000,000 and already got one million profit! Establishment is a great way to make some money! Get your own piece of bootleggers now! Be quick, New York has been sold out already.
