This issue was brought up back in December 2014, if you want to see the first 'admission' to buying energy with game cash. The last time it was discussed was on page 6 with the "Over 8500 AP in less than a day?????" thread.
The issue with a 2nd round of league play to complete weapons is that there are always better weapons to buy through the store. Glu has to provide better and better weapons because that's what drives more PVP play (a.k.a. the money maker). I think…
I also forgot how much the cash upgrades were, with a rough guestimate of 5 million, so it sounds like I was off by a few million. Thank you for the reminder, as I only have 6 million saved and so it looks like I'll need to double that for the next…
This seems to be typical throughout the game if you rely on collecting diamonds, and the frequency of 'negative net gain' increases when a new weapons come out (weekly); when a new tier comes out you can usually gain more diamonds by signing on to t…
Finding another target doesn't guarantee a 'better target'; There is a bidding war for the best target depending on who is not signed on. I haven't noticed a pattern between how many diamonds you hold and who you get matched up with PVP.
Have you noticed if the amount of gold videos decreases based on the amount of gold you have saved? I haven't really put that much time in to figure if there is any correlation between gold saved versus opportunity for free gold or if I just grow m…
There are way too many factors that advertisers consider to make decisions of when and where to show commercials. Advertising placement is constantly changed/modified/updated/moved, etc...
VP is the key factor for matching, but there is still a bidding war for the lowest defense + most diamonds within the matrix of PVP matching. The other thing to consider is that the dedicated 'free' players are all on the same cycle of when they ca…
100VP, 50 wins, in 24 hours for the 50 gold milestone can be a bit tough (almost 17 hours of 'hourly attention' to the game) and winning usually takes at least 60-70 wins. Mathematically you can only gain 72 wins in 24 hours for free; that isn't mu…
3 'free energy' credits is equal to 20 gold, so how many free energy credits did you end up using? As for the lack of sleep while trying to play every hour; 7110AP is the max if you played every hour, 3 times per hour, for 96 hours; without losing …
I think it has to do with your VP score. Would you say that you've been paying 125 diamonds per match for the last 25 matches? Did the amount of diamonds per PVP match increase after you reached a 400 VP score?
The game is 'freemium'....free to download....free to play....12 hours/day to keep up...13-20 hours/day to be competitive....or 6 hours/day, with a bunch of money, for a chance to win....sounds on par. Maybe one day we'll see a GLUU sponsored Visa …
Thanks Handles, I think everyone knows the unlikelyhood of a bonus based on our skill, without a GLU profit bonus, but you know we'll always try. What if we could select an option to spend 5 gold per match to be eligible for a potential 10 gold bon…
LOL, it's like the start of a paper on global economics; see video games CAN be educational. It would be pretty cool if I had a diamond production factory in real life. ;) Infomercials, here I come! 100% QZ diamondoids 10 hour sale. All day!
Living on the west coast, I would gladly accept your offer to end the tournaments 3 hours earlier. 9pm is just fine with me. I actually wouldn't mind if they shifted it by 6 hours earlier.
So far we have the "black void" a.k.a. "jailbreak" a.k.a. "PVP running to Hades" a.k.a. even the virtual avatars are getting tired of conquering the same bases over and over...
As try_again mentioned, you're looking for the Kraken AK-200 and Longshot 50, both with 1440 max power and available for cash. They become available for cash after completing campaign section "Russia".
After you complete the 1st campaign section "…
Sounds like a "Blood and Glory: Immortals" game reference; maybe the update messages got their wires crossed, or it was just a really weird advertisement. ???
I do like the idea, but you still have to give incentive for a maxed out tier 9 player attacking a tier 1 player. I'm thinking there should be a visual 'bar' on the energy counter to show you how close you are to losing the bonus. So a tier 1 play…
Not sure who/what that is referring to, but are you saying CKS will have a base tier 11?
BTW - People who use diamonds for base upgrades are already finding 512,000 diamonds completely out of range because you can only collect about 100,000 diamond…
iOS has a few guys on the leader board competing...11 hours in...4 players above 5K AP with #1 at over 6K AP.
I definitely will not be one of those competing for prizes....just on to the next 512K diamonds.
It IS about that time, but I think there will be a tier 10 base and tier 9 campaign release, to wrap things up in May. CKS just doesn't have the scenery, and subject matter, to relive the Deer Hunter legacy. Unlike Dino and CKS 6 month plan, I thi…
Have you actually lost/won 15,000 diamonds at one time? I'm trying to figure out what the maximum is. So far it looks like 14,500 is the maximum, whether they have 250,000 diamonds or 512,000 diamonds.
It would make the most sense if the amount of diamonds for PVP matching was based on your base's diamond production, but my guess is that it's attached to your VP score, like the player matching.
Here are a few questions, and maybe the answers, for you:
Where did you download the game from?
When did you start playing?
What campaign level are you up to?
What is your base defense rating, most powerful short/long range weapons ratings, and curr…
So in the iOS (Apple devices) group, with a 2510 AP score, only placed me at #2040, which means I didn't win any parts. Places 1100-1900 got 5 parts. All I was trying to figure out is how many people played in the tournament, which is about 41,000…
@StageofHistory - Not sure whether PVP is cross platform, but I do understand your logic from what we 'see' and/or don't see. Speaking of platforms, I still think there are more Android users than iOS users, but iOS users aren't broken up into diff…
Slightly off of the thread topic; I purposely stopped playing the Global event after reaching the 104 win streak, score of 2510(Silver League), and placed #2040 on iOS.
Did anyone stop playing the global event after reaching 8500 AP? What place di…
