yep, if you spend 50$ for something, your going to make sure its protected

right, so you are going to keep them on merlin at all times.. because that is the only way. there is no such thing as an unconcuerable planet anymore

Stupid update, does not help the game play at all.
Real reason behind this is to make more money. But then wouldn't we all want to make more money, so can't blame Jason for this.
What this update will cause:
Someone buys a dual for $50. Puts it on MPDSD, eventually it comes off MPDSD either because they forgot about it or they can't afford to keep psying for it. The planet gets stolen, then the owner complains and cries about it because they spent $$ on it.
*sigh*

well if people are thinking about spending 50$ for a dual they are not clever, i dont beleve that sgw will still be here with a lot of players in 1-2 years the way things are going now

Interesting update for sure, but i cant see it being used alot, like its been stated its going to have to stay on merlins all the time unless your gonna be putting a 10trill def onto it.
Will be interesting to see how this update pans out.

There IS a way to keep your planet protected every day. If you go on PPT twice a week, then that covers you for 4 days; then use your one Market Turn left to buy 3 days of Merlin Power, use it and then your done. 4 days PPT, 3 days Merlin - If I've worked that right then its protected 7 days a week, yes ?

and the few extra stats a dual planet adds are really worth not being able to play 4 days and spending your last market turn on merlins?
*Edit*
but in theory, yes. but is it worth it?

how would it be profitable?
if you cant play most of the week then the extra stats (attack, covert, defence) wont be of any use anyway ^^
oh well.
i respect your oppinion but personally i think its madness ^^

think about it, both UP and income help as much on PPT as they do off PPT.
Plus you could do a up/att or up/def, 1 stat helps on ppt, the other off ppt.

For the big and rich players imo. Well at least now anyone can buy a dual planet. But i'm guessing if anyone is lucky enough to steal one of those, he/she will be sat on till deletion, more alliance wars (= no problem, i'm more bothered with how this could lead to personal grudges if some ppl are unable to distance themselves from the game)
Anyways, this is speculation. We'll see what and how.
Also to bad no UP/UP or atk/atk planets xD
