About an average Global on IOS. Everybody waiting for a…
I am following up on the Drone issue now.
The reason that CW opponents are more difficult than standard PVP bots is related to the Clan Level and PC level upgrades. Right now my clan, Elites, is at Level 46, which means that Clan members have an 11…
And suddenly, without a New Content Update, 20M+ vaults are back. The Opponents are still much tougher than before, but at least I am getting rewarded for my efforts.
The "Upgrade" also involves 80 new Drone levels which will take the drone to 96.64B. There are a bunch of new Drone weaps which max out at 96.64B as well, but they are programmed upside down, so that upgrading Drone weaps actually weakens them. Cle…
My Vaults since the IOS "upgrade" are running 18 to 25 Diamonds, only a fraction of the 125 Diamonds it costs to Find Target. Even worse, most PVPs require a Medkit to complete.
This "upgrade" is a total disaster. The Vault run 18 to 25 Diamonds, only a fraction of the 125 Diamond cost to find an opponent. The Drone Weapons are programmed upside down, so that upgrades actually weaken the weapon. Clan Wars time changes are t…

I have just completed my Tier 28 upgrade, so it is freebies for me into the …
So far nothing looks different on the new Tier. Opponents are slightly harder, but not much. No increase in Vaults, though I am finding an occasional 17M+ Vault.
Two quick items: Players who got the Alligator Sniper parts in the recent VIP cannot upgrade it and the IOS server is down since 1 AM.
Also my takes in PVP were dropping but I am still getting an occasional opponent in the 15.8 M range.
We may be able to detect a useable pattern in the new VIP schedule:
July 14 7000 Gold 27.5 Sniper
5750 Gold 27.0 Tesla
July 18 7000 Gold 27.5 Assault
5750 Gold 27.0 Heavy
July 21 7000 Gold 27.5 Tesla
5750 Gold …
In the end CKS is entertainment and costs to play must be justified by the enjoyment you get by playing the game, not by the virtual assets (Weapons, drone and Base) that you acquire. At the rate of 3200 Gold for $100 buy-in, a PVP battle costs 21 c…
I am with you. The combination of shortened Tier upgrade cycles and the elimination of the Sweet Spot make the game more expensive. However, CW competition and playing the Tower are essentially free. For the modest budget or no budget player, CKS of…
The now apparently deceased "Sweet Spot" Super has served us well for a long time and I will miss it. RIP. However, from the limited sample of the last two VIPs, buying in to two VIPs will give 4 excellent weapons. The Maelstrom MK II Tesla from the…
Scorpion, you are right on with this one. I wish you weren't, but I am afraid you are.
It looks like the cost of playing CKS with state of the art weapons using VIP Buy-ins just went from $200/month to $900/month.
I don't have a clue what Glu will do, of course, but let me share with you what I hope Glu is doing:
As you know, the GLobal/new Tier/SuperVIP ccyles have been linked quite closely and have been released more or less at the same time every four wee…
Interesting developments in the VIPs. The link between IOS and Android VIPs appears to have been abandoned by Glu.
The IOS SuperVIP did not require a buy in to unlock. The 7K weapon was open to view from the start, and the weapons are pretty good:
