More Ship Tokens

How about allowing us to use gems to change the max ship tokens allowed to go from 40 to 60 or 80 (or higher). That way people can take a few extra hours of not touching the game when they are busy or just to be able to build up an extra run while sleeping.

    Or how about just get rid of ship tokens period. I can play every single other lvl of the game as many times as i wish. Honestly i think it is just plain stupid when you put restrictions into a game like that. I usually delete any game that has a stupid "energy" limit for playing a lvl. Thx for spending money and downloading our game but wait you can only play it for 30 min at a time. Just stupid. If i want to play let me play. I have spent more than enough money on your game. A helluva lot more than i would have spent on a console game. So why are you limiting my playtime. The tower was both a nice step forward and a huge step backwards thx to pay to play.

    This isnt a console game, this is an online game aimed at progressively making a little bit of money with each update, you can pay your way to getting things quicker or you can be patient an take 5/6/7 times longer to get things, it dosent require any money to be spent. There not limiting your play, they allow you to play it 14 times a day, everyday. With the option for unlimited if you choose to... EVERY free game on the appstore HAS to accumulate revenue from somewhere otherwise there would be no game.

    obviously they need to make money but there are better ways to do it without limiting my gameplay time. Such as the bag slots, offerings, vanity items, pets, coins. I have personally spent over 500 dollars on this game. If you dont think thats enough money to get me unlimited access to the gameplay aspects of the game then there is just no talking sense to you. Plenty of free games out there make their money from aspects in the game that dont affect playtime. That was my point. Not that i think they should provide me with a game for free. Thats just stupid.

    You dont need slots, vanity items, pots, reaganta all those can be obtained from gameplay, (apart from slots which you dont need) so what have you spent 500 dollars on ? Your complainin. About spending all of that money but it was more than likely on items that you could have obtained through gameplays, 500 dollars is what, 26000 gems or so ?, thats 1300 runs on endless without the regain of ship tokens through time, tht could be upwards of 2000 goes on endless, but then again you probably spent your money on the things you didnt need to have .......

    Your completely missing the point kid. Nope didnt complain one time about the money i spent. I wanted to spend it. And it was spent on the items i listed as a good source of revenue for the game. NOT on being permitted to play a stage. This started as a conversation about tokens for tower and in effect gameplay time. Discussing an aspect of a game is not complaining about it. How else do you think things progress and improve. All ideas are not perfect out of the gate. Anyway this conversation is completely off topic now. Enjoy your complete ignorance and solidarity in your point of view. Think before you just troll a post in the future.

    Of course it would be a great idea to get rid of ship tokens completely. However it would make a mess of the survival tournament and would remove a source of income for the company making this an option I do not believe they would ever consider. I tried to offer an option that could be considered since it would make them money while at the same time giving us a good enough benefit to make us decide to spend our money. I would definitely pay to be able to go 6 or 8 hours without having to be on. Whether I get on or not who cares its just nice to know the option would be there.

    Personally, I'm happy with the current setup. Initially I thought and hoped the 40 tokens would be per character though, not over the three characters. IE, if the mage ran out of tokens you could log into the monk and have 40 more for him.

    It honestly should be 40 per hero

    Two different towers but only same amount of tokens, well that was just one more nail in the coffin for this game.

    40 tokens for TWO TOWERS and THREE CHARACTERS, and on top of that, 20 tickets to enter one tower.

    Well, looks like im gonna have to go find another game.

    I swear to god, Moloch talks out of his freaking ***. Easier to get godlies?

    Yeah, sure, man. Just bring out twenty grand and go buy gold offerings.

    Or better yet, just go buy a CAR or something that actually is not pixelated.

    Reducing the cost of tickets back down to 10 would nice, those with limited time can do more runs in the time they have. Plus the all day players will still get loads of runs so everyone is happy.

    10 tickets an endless run would halve Glu's profits.

    Rentoc makes a good point. I doubt Glu's revenue would be severely affected by not restricting tower play because people would then spend more on potions. Even bag slots so they wouldn't have to sell as much. Irregardless of your opinion I think we can all agree on 40 tickets shouldn't be shared by 3 toons. I highly doubt a survival tournament would be even more messed up than it already is with all the hacking in endless going on and atleast the people that would win would be because they grinned and not payed to win.

    i doubt that, this patch will hurt it more.

    40 tickets would be ok if we got 40 per character. there are so many ways to fix this and so many suggestions...glu listen up before its to late as it is getting close. All it would take at this point is the right game for a mass exodus. Many in my guild are saying they dont want to play and wont be around as much. I was happy that we finally got to 64 but now the talk is of what other games are out there. If things are not fixed soon I guarantee you will lose a huge player base.

    As a player that has only a couple of times a day to play, the 10 token entry would be better for me. 4 runs in one go would be a great help, good for me to split between the 2 towers or characters. At the speed people claim to be leaving this game a cost reduction could keep them here and balance the profit for Glu out in the long run. Plus let's face it less players, less profit. More players, more profit. Lower token costs might drop profit in the short term, but more players will increase profit in the long term.
