This update is long over due, it should have been done with the other planets way back when.
Its here, its not going anywhere - so stop complaining and adapt to it. Some of you could actually take advantage of this if you calmed down and looked it all over.

i got mad, i thought it over, i raised my raw UP.
i dont care. if anyone thinks this will stop slow down or deter people from owning a UP planet they are sorely mistaken. even with the higher cost of ascension i can still afford to raise my raw UP and get the benefits of my planets.
all this did was make me spend a hair more naq that i can easily make back by selling some UU later on. its an investment, nothing more. just like putting all that naq into your UP planet is an investment.
while i think it sucks the way it was done i will agree with those who like the update on one thing, it should have been this way from the start just like the covert attack and defense planets. of course i also believe income planets should also should be made to fall in line and follow the 50% rule.

Preferably to somrthing like do you like the update yes or no.
Just because peopel were too cocky to increase theri raw up which is actuly cheaper than a planets up and needs no defending and now need to.
actually before this update it was easier and MUCH cheaper to invest in UP planets.
as i said in another thread, it would only take 28trill to get a 500k up from up planets(before the update).
Now, people would have to get a much higher raw UP to be able to do that. which is more expensive and makes the game more challanging.

nothing wrong with challenging...i like it. i saw the challenge and beat it. not much of a challenge. and for those of us who have gotten where we want to be whether its LG+1 or ancient god or whatever....it wont matter to them to raise their UP to get the max out of their planets. once i get to where i want to be i wont hesitate to drop a trillion and more on my RAW UP regardless of the update.
yeah its challenging but its not a challenge that cant be beat. the more i think about the less it bothers me.

1trill isnt that much. thats what, a 25-30k UP? try spending 50trill and getting a 250k raw, then i'll be impressed.

once i get to where i want to be i wont have a limit to the naq i spend on my UP, both raw and otherwise.
though this is a good opportunity for people to go looking for officers, an easy way to raise your UP.
it will also make UP planets less desirable to a lot of players.

The Normalcy Bias
The normalcy bias refers to an extreme mental state people enter when facing a disaster. It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of the government to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred that it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.
Are you suffering from normalcy bias?

doenst officers raise your total not ur raw so it wouldnt be affected?
its a great update..people who spend too much on planets (that can be taken no matter the def)...should lose out cuz working on raw is much better in the long run as no ticked off enemy can nab it from you and rob you of those trillions ;

No its still just as biased. They cant like it and have to raise their UP or not like it but dont need to raise their UP.
Personally I see no problem. raw up is much cheaper and unlike investing into 10planet u just need to buy a bit of raw up. Its much less than all those planets.
20k up on each one ok that costs trillions, 40k raw up cost what 700bil I believe.
Seriously some of you are lazy buggers you just want everything to be so simple...
