Re: Buying Duals for $$$
I have been using the 2 ppt and market turn for a mpddps for months, lol
as for this n ew update, sounds like its another one designed to make $$ as soon as it does not make enough $$ believe me it will just get deleted
this game was started with interest. now its just $$ and for all those who put $$ into this game will get screwed cos believe me they dont give a damn anymore, hence all the other kingdom games being created
just ready to take over where this one leaves

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
can't blame him for trying to make some money..
but personally... i would never put in an update like this.. not all that money for something that can be lost so easily.. it's begging for people to take a chance and spend their hard earned money on something they don't get to keep, and people will lay awake at night regretting it and cursing this game..
maybe if mark made the planets HARDER to steal in the last update instead of riddiculously EASY to steal, then he would without a doubt make a killing on an atempt to make money like this.

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
the first person to buy one and when it gets stolen will whine forever about how they want a refund because they put 50 bucks into a planet and it was stolen.
i think they opened up a pandora's box of whining the likes of which has never been seen in this game before.
should have just increased the chances of creating a dual. but then again that doesnt make him money now does it?

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
Lame, the blackmarket is killing the game by driving down the $$ price on resources to the point where massings are meaningless, this is another nail in the coffin.
Personally I would prefer all active players to pay a subscription fee and do away with the blackmarket and SS/USS all together.

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
Myself ..I wouldnt put another dollar into the game...why... admin abandons those that have supported the game dispite proof of a hacking ect...im only still playing because of an honest player who did return a bunch of my UU admin did nothing for me no planets nothing to make up for my losses so no matter how good a cash update may be he wont be getting a dime more of my money.

Actually, I think the backlash would have been less, and the need for merlins would have increased, I think this will be veiwed to negatively as it stands

Well you can't do away with it all together as to many cant pay $$ for various reasons, but I would offer to pay a small premium, but the customer servise will have to improve drasticly for that.

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
Thats the counter problem to this update, if someone buys UU etc, they can invest them so they are not stolen/destoryed, same with SS, but to buy a planet at $50 which some multi could take off you, espically now that planet defenses have been highly limited.
This update is just not going to work at all.
The only other way is to make it that these planets cannot be taken, in which case everyone will have 10 x duals from market, and thus its counter productive.
Admin should have made it that if you make a planet on the market that like 5% chance it will be a dual.

Deep within Noob Cave, you find a strange pool filled with a glowing blue liquid. You think back to what your mother told you about unfamiliar liquids found in caves.
You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
I dunno, i mean, if someone is going to invest $50 on something in this game, then surely they'd have the resources to either protect it very well, or be able to take it back, no matter what defense is on it.
With the being able to find your abandoned planet though, does that mean others can find it first? Or do you get a week before others can, cause that would make it more easily to hold on to?

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
A suggestion to all complaining. Go to the admin chats. I know all can not make it, but it is a very good bet that atleast a quarter of the people here complaining could have.
If even a fifth of the people here currently complaining had gone and voiced their discontent then this update would probably not be in. If you want to try and get it reversed attend the next chat or send a representative. But just complaining won't do anything.

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
I don't know why everyone is crying about this...there are plenty of people who spend money on the game...spend money every week to buy USS to protect their planets etc...now you can get duals for a price...big deal...if someone spends money and they lose something it's their fault...they can whine and complain...but when it comes down to it...they bought a planet thinking they could keep it and they were wrong...nothing wrong with admin trying to make more money from the game...

Re: Buying Duals for $$$
Is it really that hard to defend just 1 planet with mobile defence? Every tril provides around 100b defence. What defence becomes unmassable?

There isnt one.
and as stated, 1 can be held. Its the second one thats the problem.
Then you got missed PPT ends, or even getting autobanned, unbanned and planet stripped. To many bad things can happen.
