Universal Basic Income
Universal Basic Income (UBI) is a social welfare policy enacted on the ASEAN Motor Club server. It gives player a regular payment periodically (e.g. a few times per hour), and the pay depends on the activity as well as the player's driving level.
Benefits
Mayor Freeman’s proposal highlights several key advantages of implementing this UBI system:
- Injecting Economic Liquidity: By putting more purchasing power directly into players’ hands, we expect to see a more vibrant in-game economy. This means:
- Increased trade and demand for goods and services.
- More bustling markets and more opportunities for delivery jobs.
- Overall economic stimulation across Motor Town.
- Improving Player Retention and Reducing the ‘Grind’: This foundational income aims to make Motor Town more welcoming, especially for new players.
- It lowers the barrier to entry, ensuring everyone can acquire essential goods.
- Players are freed from constant money-making, allowing them to:
- Experiment with vehicle tuning.
- Explore the diverse landscapes of Jeju and Oji islands.
- Participate more actively in community events and races.
- Incentivizing Active Engagement: The tiered system directly rewards active participation, designed to:
- Boost average session lengths and the frequency of meaningful play.
- Foster a more vibrant Motor Town, full of spontaneous interactions and a lively community atmosphere.
- Reinforce fairness, ensuring participation isn’t solely limited by the ability to dedicate vast hours to wealth generation.
Funding
The UBI is funded through donations and Vanity Vehicle sales into the Treasury.
