..that no one mentioned the 1200 min reduction for the Supply Drops. Press the speed up button and you pick up the silver.
This is really good but wonder what Pix is up to. They never do anything out of the kindness of their little hearts. Any ideas what is going on?
What comes to my mind is:
• There is not enough silver in the economy so they are distributing more. Could be temporary too.
• The value of silver is about to drop (maybe because of the intro of platinum)
• They are nerfing the mk2 monetisation mechanism which again sort of raises the question what are they transitioning us onto and the obvious place to look is titans.
• Ads revenue is good and they are just encouraging us to watch more ads
• All of the above

New currency for upgrading titans when they come out.

They priced content value last year. A long time passed, and they added a lot more content that requires gold. They could have reduced silver costs after that, shifting the revenue source from silver to gold purchase, making silver more accessible as they just introduced gold sinkholes.
The trick of the magician, while you watch one of their hands (reduced silver costs, hurray!) they do the trick with the other (new ways of progression that moves the goal posts further). My main issue with Pixonic is that they don't even care to try to trick me like a good magician. They instantly reveal me the trick and they hand me out two slaps for not being entertained by their non trick.
So no, sadly, I don't think they will devalue silver. I was thinking about this possibility since pilots, but a summer and an autumn passes, and still no change. They don't even want to fool us, because they know they can get away with anything as long as their numbers are positive.

No, i think you have it backwards. You can only use the ads once or twice on the SD. Used to be 5 ads, which is enough to get 1 extra SD per day without any tricks.
They added new event tasks that require watching ads to get it. Even if your whale, you'll need to watch ads.
So with the latest changes, most players will be watching the same number of ads per day. 4 + 1 = 5.
The events used to be a good way to get gear or sell the junk for heaps of silver. Inky used to sell for ~14M, correct me if i'm wrong. Much more than the 4-5M that whole bots sell for. Now they just give lots of crack. Another currency.
They had the Arena which is great for players like me. But that would be a selfish look at the game. I didn't steal the AU from lesser players, because that's what it is. Pixo profits either way, and the more players played it the less AU is in the system. So no, i don't consider them being generous in giving out silver or AU. Crack yes, but i think they want more crack addicts, get addicted, then they will take it away and jack up the prices. ALmost everyone is trigger happy with the crack pipe now, even for friendly fire. So they have everyone trained like little ?female dog?es.
Even if you consider they are generous with the silver and you use the reinstall trick, a max hanger requires 5B in silver. I didn't do the math, but it's hella lot. I'm earning less silver per battle than i did 3 years ago. I've been keeping track of my AU, it's been at the same rate for years now, about 100 AU per day.
Personally my hanger is in a pretty good spot, i've been able to keep within a stone throw's distance from the whales and have enough impact in those games. Hover is one of the few bots that is strong because High Ground is OP. See my thread with the same title. But this isn't about me, and the economy is too messed up. These events don't help low champs with 9/9 hanger "catch" up as i've shown, and they might as well rename champ tier to seal clubber's league because that's what it is. Whale gets 3M, low champs get 309-600K dmg. That's the same type of scores during the seal clubbing era, 600K and 30-60K.

You can reset the limit (please don’t reinstall) and play all ads to this. For me this has more than doubled my Ag intake since I usually make less Ag in battle than from 1 supply drop.
It’s all virtual, Pix isn’t really out anything, I think it’s just part of their ‘tinkering’ to find what will get people playing the most.

You could make more than a dozen competent hangars at that rate. IDK, in low champs I still eek out 1.5M games with my lv8 gear. The other day I cracked 2 milly in TDM (I never play TDM)

For low champs and below one supply drop box is most likely more than the average Ag awarded provided the player is not on premium or boosters. The 300-600 damage per battle probably equates to <250K Ag and a low champ will pull out 500K from the box. Lucky I am not running any upgrades atm. How many games the average player turns over is a valid point. Agree with champs tier being seal clubbing league. Its like the LPQ of old with the level 30 guys being removed.

Equalizing resource payouts so all one has to do is play. No big winners or losers in terms of resources awarded (especially when the 50% win loss is considered). More you play the more you get.

If I do it more than once, can I get banned?

I just noticed it over the weekend and like it. As everyone knows the silver requirements are ridiculous and it hurts the game base. I think that's why the Operations have so many resources. Even for the $15 or whatever it is, it's the best deal in the game if you play enough.
