hmmm...not so crazy about new spy thingy

Well I was hoping that my spy level would be better with this newest update...and it seems like I lost a lot of power in covert on this one. So either this is a bug that needs fixing or this just really sucks. IT doens't seem to me to be very beneficial. What do you all think?

I hate it. I got 40K UU into spys. I dropped 3000 Ranks because of it. I cant afford to build up. It will take WAY too much UU to raise my covert to a usable level. I mean to raise my rank.
Im serious. I am in serious Covert trouble. I dropped 680 Ranks because of it.
And i am sure of one thing. This is helping bigger players more than smaller ones.

As long as everyone ends up roughly where they were, I'll be fine.

I concur...I too dropped massive covert and am now nolonger gaining G/R points either. However, i'd edit your post to remove your stats...last thing you need is a sabbing. :shock: :roll:

:shock: :shock: It alternates on the turn change until this all settles out. I keep bouncing up and diving down in rank. So Forum said that not everyone was updated at once. This will put the ranks in flux for some small time until everyone is updated....But I'm happy again...my rank came back up...[wipes sweat and tears off face]

It could be ok. But it's messing up things for me. I dropped 100 ranks and now I'm in trouble. Loosing G&R. Hope I can get back to my rank soon.

Lost 4000 percent of my covert :o , now I can see half my commander's stats. Can someone run me through the covert calculation? I never get the amount that's on my new covert power. For example:

Covert Level 16 (for easy root), 200 Covert spies, 200 Anti-covert spies, three covert tech upgrades, not replicator (no race bonus):

(((4 x 1.2) x 1.3) x 1.5) x 200) + 400 = 224680.576

Is that how you calculate it? 'Cause I'm not getting it.
