When we get up to the spy levels around 10, it becomes increasingly harder for the non supporters to gain higher levels.

So what about being able to buy things in incriments?

the spy lvl 10 is 3 million, what if you could contribute 100k the first time you log in, and it'll store the ammount you put towards it, then the next time you have money, you can put some more cash towards it and so on untl you've accumulated a total of 3 million naq.

cause it's damn near impossible for the lower level players and non supporters to accumulate the 6 million needed for level 11, and the 12 mil needed for level 12 is staggering...

[IcER]

I think that is what the bank is for When it gets higher you just have to be a bit more creative

[Lord Kaiti]

maybe, but my bank can only store about 2 mill at a time right now, and I just barely had enough from attacks to hit the 3 mil mark for the lvl 10 spy...

to get level 11 i'd need to have 4 mil naq out in the open and a max of 2.2 mil in my bank... i can't accumulate 4 mil and not have it taken from me... and rasing my bank so it can hold nearly 7 mil will take forever.

if your able to put forth small payments every so often, then it'll allow people to get spy levels much quicker.

maybe add interest to the thing, if you buy the whole thing at oncce and don't pay in installments, then no charge, but for every payment made over a certain price add interest or something... i donno, but getting the 6 mill naq required for lvl 11 will be horribly hard to do and I don't have money to sponsor with.

Give it some time. It only really gets hard after lv13. 24mil is slightly hard to get, but possible if you work hard for it. But 48mil is a problem...

The best solutions are to become a replicator and/or to increase your unit production very, very high. Increasing unit production may not seem to help short-term, but you'll increase your bank size and get more money per turn, so it does help Get it to at 100/day at the least, preferably way over 200/day...

Just so you know, I am not a supporter, and I am doing just fine

==================EDIT===================
Sorry, forgot about your suggestion.

As I said, getting the money isnt too hard, you just need patience. Allowing small contributions would make it easier, but it would take some fun out of the game. There would be no risk anymore, almost no chance you'll loose naq since you wont keep much out at all. So I dont like it in that respect.

Also, another tip, you can store money as weapon too, which has an unlimited storage space But it does have a higher cost... but it makes lv13 much easier to afford

BTW, I believe I had 1.5 mil bank space when I bought lv11, because I had put a lot of money into offensive weapons, then sold them all when I was ready to upgrade

Stacks of weapons can serve as a bank of sorts, only with a higher interest rate. The upside is it has no max.

well dont worry about it as untainable when i was wee and small i consider a million to be untainable now its itsnt anymore it sorta grows on ya. dont worry there are players out there that make half mil in a turn.

[myFriend]

with the wepons thing and using it as a bank do some math on them. thats all i am going to say and NO ONE ELSE SHOULD SAY ANY MORE

[NoDot]

there are players out there that make half mil in a turn.

WHAT!?!?!?

[I Replicate]

thats only about 15,000 soldiers... There are probably a few with that amount (approximately...)

Not too many

Well, I find that a lot.

[I Replicate]

lol so do I...

I was being slightly sarcastic, though I'm sure maybe Apophis or Fox are fairly close to that number, if not past it..

LOL at close.... enough said...

[Spykie]

Uhhhm I'm not yetting making half a million but close to it and it won't be more then 3000-3500 untrained to get half a million / turn

[I Replicate]

...we're talking about regular server, not quantum.

37.5*3500=131,250... not quite at half a million

so 500,000/37.5=13,333 if your a goauld...

I suggest to upgrade unit production as well as you can, after buy lvl what you want. Just train troops as spies when you're in lvl 12, because the price is high for lvl 13 and you will have the opportunity to train your untrained troops (unless 100/day) as spies...
That's my opinion...
I have lvl 11 and I train troops as spies but it's not my way who's the best!
Do like I said: upgrade unit prod as well as you can!
