So just after I restarted from a new content update, my PVP's that were all 53.12k or 69.12 are now what they were pre ver 3.0.
The good news is I can get some short battles back in. A lot of opportunities, but a lot of unchallenging lower powered bases, too.
The bad news is no more constant 10K payouts. It looks like with mostly actual human accounts to choose from, I'll be back to the 4K average, and during a tempting global event, more like 2K payouts.
This will help out the lower powered players considerably, but send me back to the slow upgrade process.
I can hear the conversation;
CFO :"Do you know how many diamonds your stupid error has given away to these greedy #%*!
@& customers?"
Lead Programmer: "Just missed one line of code, I'm still trying to fix bugs from 4 months ago!"

At the Tier 10 Level, I'm not seeing any value in this over expensive defense and haven't upgraded at all. Someone steals a few diamonds, oh well, I'm not using them for much anyway until they fix this drone fiasco. :-) WHICH I can also live without.
Come to think about it, all I really want is a better heavy, which I haven't been able to upgrade for close to a month now, and go shoot something *** SMILES ***
Also has anyone started to notice a little "stutter" in the SHORT range battles? Maybe it's time for a better tablet.

The current video requirements, particularly with two drones shooting, are pretty high. Both my brand new iPad and my Kindle are seizing up on a lot of these missions.
Do you have root access? You'll need it to tweak the Nexus...
That would be nice to be able to enable and/or disable your support drone.
But I don't understand why you would disable it. I will never disable my support drone. You may have some bad experiences with it, but it had helped me numerous time during matches. I know that right now it is not powerful enough to take out anything. But it is good enough to show me where they are. It is good enough to keep them busy so I wouldn't get hit by a sniper. It is good enough to keep them busy long enough so I cold go under cover or shoot them.
The only thing I don't like and I don't understand is why Glu made them so powerful at 369K power level. It costs so much and takes so long to upgrade them to that level. But most important, with a maxed out drone at 369K, IT REALLY TAKES THE FUN OUT OF THE GAME. There's gotta be a better way and a reasonable way to protect our bases.
