Potential members should know, Pow provides freshly squeezed organic potato juice at the induction ceremony for all new members.

it's quite awful, as you might expect, but it's the thought that counts.

[Make Daily Task Reward 5 tokens each double Missions]

I don't even think the missions need to be twice as hard.

finish 3 campaign missions for 6k gold... what is that? who needs that? even low level players aren't inticed by 6k gold.

5 tokens, and thats an incentive. thats a mission -> reward scenario. right now you have mission -> couple pennies in small change.

knowwhat'msayin?

if it weren't for the 10 tokens for completing all missions, I don't think I'd ever bother to do any of them. even now I sometimes don't lmaoo.

[Does the premium box give YOU better loots than premium packs?]

No, it's purely superstition.

on the otherhand, packs provide a small discount.

so in the long term, you'll be better off buying packs for the simple reason you get more item drops with the same amount of tokens  (on a large scale).

The change are a lot, specially the new forum and special offers really payoff.

And yes the offers are overpriced, same as always.

But I still can't find difference other of it, or maybe other of it remain the same.

 

 

the offers are the same as before lmao. new forum is kinda.. I mean even if it was a significant improvement on the last forum, its not going to make a diffence to the huge problems in game which have existed for years now.

the balance changes were nice, in fairness. BUT the major issues with the way TS handled the game have still not been adressed. and as far as I can tell... they're not going to be. I mean feel free Gato team, if you're reading this, enlighten me with your vision for change and I'd love to hear it. but the team went silent after about a month? same communication issues as with TS.

I really hope the big vision with which they aquired supermechs was not simply to slap a couple of balance changes onto the sinking ship and ride the "new management" hype-wave as far as it would take them just to squeeze an extra couple of years out of it. However, I haven't really been given much, if any, reason to believe otherwise.

idk, man. I warned people to measure their expectations foir the Gato revolution... and yet I still find myself disapointed none the less.

[Quick Question]

What exactly has changed since gato took over from TS?

same old overpriced token packages

same old crappy drop rates

same old gap between the have-its and have-nots with no legit free method to progress past a certain barrier

as far as I can tell, the only difference is the name of the company showing up on spender’s bank statements.

am I wrong?

Hey, Misfit!

Oof! It didn’t occur to me that Abomination is obsolete now...

Lol! Leave it to Tacticsoft to make money from obsolete items. 

I bought it without a second thought because of how coveted it was in the past.

Since I only got one Shadow Wolf from a sale, this Abomination will still be a welcome addition to my inventory.

I mean it isn’t total crap by any means (I still use it lol), but the shadow yeeter is usually better where possible due to its ability to escape corner traps better, and the prevelance if heat axe mechs makes this a very decent trait. So abom just doesn’t shine in the way it used to
 

Abom is still a godsend for me since I like making heat pushers and I don’t have the wolf or 3+ magmas lol. Also with my drone, a smart opponent can make it very awkward for me to use my burning shower and also fire my drone in a way they couldn’t if I had recoil, but usually Aboms 3 uses makes it unnecessary anyway lol.

have fun with it

bruh I aint talking about that thing. thats the one with "retreat".

I'm talking about this slippery bad azz SOB right here:

 

this is what I use in arena right now. its pretty nice, it smashes most phys mechs 9 times out of ten and handles heat and energy "OK", but it struggles with getting outmaneuvered due to the lack of recoil:

if I had "shadow wolf" this build would run much smoother, especially against Heat (ESPECIALLY especially those sword and hammers... grrr *shakes fist*):

but I'm happy to atleast get abom since despite having spent a LOT in the past I only have 2 magmas lol

I can finally get an Abomination!

it was kinda made obsolete by the 2-4 heat recoil thing (no, I will not learn the goofy names)

I use abom now, but if I had the recoil thing I'd use that instead without a second thought.

[Small Chance of a Premium Box in “Boss” Missions]

Hey friendos,

I remember one of the features of the very early days of reloaded which made me very excited for its direction was the small chance of getting a legendary and a guaranteed epic. Finally, a free to play game which ACTUALLY lived up to the title. You could pay some money to get yourself going faster and easier, or, if you put the work in, you had the potential to achieve just as much for free.

well, it’s been several years. It’s truly dead now.

 

BUT

 

I think a nice compromise would be that one in every 50-100 boxes in boss missions (big boy, mad boy, etc.) have a free premium box.

this isn’t going to make spending obsolete by any means. Premium boxes are more likely to drop an epic. And when they drop a leggy chances are it’s non premium. And even if it’s premium, there’s a good chance it’s not the one you wanted.

yet, this would still provide a nice boost to free players and a decent incentive to get grinding.

 

thoughts?

be patient with Alex dudes... he'll get around to you when the time is good and ready.

also yeah... I think TS is pretty much an abandoned company lol. they sold off all their assets to the first entrepeneur who offeredf to take them, so I think it's pretty much been a "grab what you can from the office, sell your stock now, and gtfo" situation.

you might aswell send tech support requests into the void if you're emailing TS...

[Fix your services and back my money]

Did you buy with PayPal? It happened to me a couple months ago I bought 7 quid worth for a deal or something like that. It didn’t show up for a few hours and I even messaged Alex because I was concerned. He told me PayPal is kinda sketch and it can take a while. Lo an behold about 5 hours after purchasing they finally showed up.

also: Alex also said he can’t refund or supply tokens manually while a transaction is “processing” because the tokens could still show up late (as in my instance)

Yes.

[“Open Max” Button for Item Boxes in Inventory]

So, it’s not a secret. The quality of life functionality in this game is garbage. It’s much more clunky and awkward to do practically anything than it needs to be, for no other reason than laziness from the past developer team.

But guess what!
what? 
the old team is dead, long live the team

so one of many suggestions which I might make, depending on how responsive the new team is, is this:

why do we have to open boxes one by one in our inventory when we already know from silver boxes that this game CAN open multiple at once? Why isn’t there a button which will just open as many boxes as it can with the inventory space available?

That text bold enough for ya? That inventory pic getting you all hot and bothered yet? Think about it. Let me know. I’ll be waiting. So why don’t you just slide into my poll, and while you’re here say anything, anything at all or this topic will be buried under flex thread posts in the forum index x

[Red Pill Me on Base - Will I get more free premiums?]

I think I’ve come to a decision.

ultimately I think “it depends” is the best answer. If I were relatively new and still advancing I think the base would just stifle and prolong my progress.

however, being that I already have progressed as far as the nasty rap progression allows and have stagnated due to simply not having the new premiums - bass is my only alternative to massive spending if I want to move forward. Really the only limiting factor for me at the moment is a lack of new kit so I’m not overly concerned with being in a rough patch which would totally stall progression since my progression has already reached a natural end anyway.

I’m not going to expect miracles - but I also think long-term this is simply all that’s “left” for me to do besides fighting arena with the same old crap I already got lmao. I can do that anyway as I wait for my base to mature.

 

thanks everyone for your input

That thing is so OP lmaoo

[Red Pill Me on Base - Will I get more free premiums?]

My current thinking to avoid this long “rough period” before the base reaches full potential is to stockpile silver boxes and about 20mil gold before starting. But on the other hand doing so basically means just prolonging the time it will take to get the base feature fully optimised.

I’m also hearing that while base does give some free premiums it’s not exactly a full alternative to spending and that I should measure my expectations for what will come out of it even when fully optimised.

one thing is still drawing me to it however, and that’s the increased automation of the game which comes through base. I think everyone agrees that this game is far far too heavy on the grind component. I don’t like having to remember to play campaign missions, and spend an hour clicking monotonously when I have enough saved to upgrade. So the gold mines which basically give me the gold automatically, and the kit production which saves time on box opening click click click, are actually just as attractive to me as the potential for a slow but constant drip of potential legendaries.

what are some base enabled players thoughts on the automation component? Do you find yourself having to spend less time click click clicking or am is this just wishful thinking?

I spent a while investigating the drop rates. It costs over 3 million per legendary.

This is because for a "chance of legendary" card, it costs over 300k. The drop rates for these are 10%. On an old hacked account when I was getting rid of tokens and fooding everything that gave me an advantage, I opened 300 as a test. I got 30 legendaries.

Obviously you cant get legendaries from sliver boxes, but I think it might be cheaper to fuse an epic up to legendary than to buy a legendary from base. And its best not to ignore the time it takes. I skipped 100 card's production times during this test, it cost over 5600 tokens per skip. I cant remember how long, but its a very long time.

Consider the cost of upgrading the base to level 20 too. You also have to upgrade the factories, so time is a massive factor there too.

You can produce kits with base, but they are "chance of rare" and are level 1

the time is definitely worth considering.

do you happen to recall how much gold and time it took to max out the base? I know you said you can't remember the exact time it took, but do you know a rough ball-park figure on a legendary card? I had a snoop around youtube but most videos are just opening cards anmd boxes which already finished and dont mention how long it actually took.

Ah yes you can reduce the factory upgrade times. In arena shop

For card is cost reduce and times.

Hi, thanks for your input.

do you know offhand what the cost and time is for a legendary card once the arena shop and base are max level? and how long did it take you roughly to reach full base?

sorry if this sounds like an interrogation lol. just trying to help myself and others make an informed and unbiased decision on whether to enable.

thanks
