Merc prices
aForcefulThrust:
Are too damn high!!! 37k for EW merc? 30k for BG human merc that will get himself killed in 5 min? 83k for a strong mutant!?!?!?
Luckily I have a large bank account generating lots of intrest, but I feel very bad for any new player trying to use mercs. How is someone new to the game or someone that doesn't have the time to play this all day expected to get mercs, so they can play with the big boys too?
DarkOne:
the prices fluxuates, the more people by them, the higher the prices get...

This session started at begin of September. So everybody has tons of caps and play around with mercs. I think prices is ok.
Regarding new players - muties and ew mercs are not for them anyway. They may join gang that can provide with EVERYTHING.
Trokanis:
Yup maybe join a gang, hope they don't just take whatever you already have and leave you hanging. Or they're nice and do 'everything' for you taking any type of experience of gameplay pretty much out of it. The prices are honestly a bit high, because people who actually want to build up in game, aren't going to be as powerful as existing players. Why should they be punished any more than new players already are?
Doctor Eex:
Actually earning caps are much more easier than from begin of the session.
You can level up without being overcrowded, you can farm (doubt rich guys farm anymore), you can sell valuable stuff to players with good profit - 20k for BA!
So, it is Fallout. Prepare for future!

I don't know if there's such kind of gangs. Our gang don't take anything from our newcomers.
We give them descent builds, help to level up and provide gear, transport etc.
Playing mercs require much investment anyway. 85k*5 = 550k. Then you need to level up them, provide weapons, repairs, ammo. You need transport (hummer or highwayman)
And you can lose it at 1 TB encounter in a moment.
If you're poor, you can hire 5 niggas with hammers and farm geckos, brahmins or whatever :)
