SEND FED2 A VALENTINE

by Hazed

It was Valentine's Day last week, when you are supposed to send the one you love a gift to show them just how much you love them. And if you love Fed2, you should send the game a valentine. But Fed2 doesn't want chocolates, or flowers, or great big ornate cards with hearts and glitter and lace on it. No, what Fed2 really, really wants so it knows how much you love it, is your money.

Yes, it's that time of the month when the bills roll in and have to be paid, so I ask you to buy some slithy toves to help fund the game's costs. Computer and network charges have to be paid, and if you love Fed2 enough to want it to keep going you have to cough up your dollars to pay the bills. In return you'll be able to exchange the slithy toves you buy for goods and services inside the game. Some of them are functional, such as the ever-popular navcomp upgrade that lets you zoom between planets in Sol, and the expensive but extremely useful premium price ticker that gives you a whole batch of prices in one go. Some are social, like the trading cards you can display or the ability to get married (or divorced if things don't work out). Some give you access to secret locations in the game, for example the keyring that allows you to use the executive washroom in the GA HQ.

Slithies cost $5 each and you can make one-off purchases of anything between 2 and 10, or you can take out a subscription to receive 4 slithies every month for the price of 3 - a 25% discount. You can do both those things from the slithy tove page.

Please buy some slithies this month to show just how much you love Fed2 and want it to be your valentine.
