UP enhancement is De-enhancing

I have 3 up planets that i have invested major naq. in building up just the defenses alone i have 700billion in them plus the billions it took to get their production where it is. Now i have been reduced to a point where i get less than 21k a day UP from my planets, now producing less units than my own officer. Hell why even have up planets than anymore, even with 10 up planets why even build them up or even put defenses on them who would even want them anymore when it would just be cheaper to build up ur base production each time upon ascension. I think this idea needs to be thought thru a bit more. This is not just a "MINOR CHANGE" to the game just the opposite.

the change didn't affect me at all, because i worked on both at the same time.

before this update it only took 10 UP planets and about 28trill naq to get a 500k UP, that's way to easy.
Now its going to be harder, as it should be.
Also - theres about 3 other threads for this already...

i rather like this update, it makes it harder to get UP up, making it so you have to get your base UP up first before the planets, it makes since to me since it applies for attack, defence, ect.

28 trill?!??! How is that EVER easy?
You are also forgetting the fact that planets can be taken regardless of their defense since massing them is still allowed.

No even with 95mil army w/e it still takes ages. Unless you put 200bil odd defense on them tons of ppl can steal em.

Would appear so
It really is a simple problem to correct if your UP has been affected.

For a skilled and active farmer 28trill would take at the most, a month. Thats 1 month worth of hard work to get a UP of 500k a day, or 3.5mill a week. One month worth of work - and the next month would bring in 14mill uu effortlessly.
THAT, is way to easy.
Now its going to be much harder, as it should be.

for most of u with the attitude that it is a good enhancement oh lets see u have been playing how long 2yrs another a yr oh well huh u got ur army just where u want it basically u, with this have just locked all the smaller ppl from ever getting to ur level, so as u keep getting bigger and bigger we keep struggling to stay alive. not one have u have taken this from our perpective. Basically unless something is done, I am done you guys enjoy the game i think i will go buy a chess board and teach my kids how to play or i know maybe i will take up needlepoint for my money contributitions to this game and server just ended
