We seriously need to start handing these out: Yup, whenever the first operation was, that was my last and final spend. ?fluffernutter? Pix. Oh, doing better than ever in the game too. Unless you like supporting liars, I suggest you consider signing up. The 500 club is recruiting all applicants. I can assure you that you will perform just fine in the game. I can also confidently say that you will enjoy PLAYING THE GAME more too. Agreed. I made it in at the end of December. Many offers tossed my way since. None seem good anymore. I play carefully (sometimes). It feels good to take out a red meta chaser in my, "underperforming Hover", or any other of my none-meta bots. Hover on. ?

Back down to 50. They made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Give me 1 trillion silver and 1 million gold for a dollar and I might consider it, even then with all i've given them I would be hesitant.

Pix has gotten enough of my money, think whatever you want about it, but frankly anything short of free is too expensive for what they're offering at this point, period.

This looked like a tasty deal if I wasn’t so adamant about the 500 club and didn’t already have a fenrir that’s level one and 99% likely to stay there at my current gold and silver income. They’re getting better which I joyfully take to mean pix is struggling at least a bit to make income targets. In all honesty I have the resources to be a crazy full on whale if I thought the meta would last longer than a week with their bs monetization model. Being as it’s never going to last long enough to bother spending the required money I’m done spending. No way I’ll spend to have a top hangar for such a tiny time frame. I spent for 2 years because I could afford it for entertainments sake. But my mistake was thinking that some day I’d have a top hangar I could rest on and just enjoy playing. That’s clearly not the case. What would I actually spend money on/for these days: Billion silver for $20 Premium for a year $20 Top meta bots or weapons mk1 level 12 $20. Only if offered on the day of release. Tired of being three months late to the party with an under leveled bot Maxed pilot with immediate choice of skills. $20 Change a maxed skill on a pilot $2 just to see if I like it better, experiment for fun. Maxed modules $5 So, they could make a couple hundred a year on me if their pricing wasn’t so insane. I actually would enjoy all the meta changes and the required changes in tactics if it didn’t realistically require $5000 a year and/or 100 hours a month grinding Rant over. Never gonna happen until they’re down to six active players FVK PIX

Finally joined! I had been spending 40-50 a month. I sent them a love letter explaining that I won't spend another dime until they fix the silver Nerf and quit their dishonest practices.

I sense you have a loooooonnnnngggggg wait for that stuff....... I sense you're right. I also sense they'll wait even longer to get my $$ ever again. I can play for free for a long time..... They lost 500$ a year in revenue in my case, just so they didn't have to give out as much of a virtual resource that doesn't cost them anything. This should be an MBA case study in how to NOT grow your bottom line.

I’m pretty sure only those wanting to continue being top players, or in top clans, won’t spend much....the cost of Platinum and amount needed to upgrade Titans is criminal.....I hope the top continues financing this game, as I’m fine playing in low Masters for the duration.

And we should appreciate that Pix has lifted the spending cap on them to better work the whale on whale action. Pretty much since Pilots, the power gap has been so large that increasing it further really doesn’t matter that much to the regular player. Do I care if the whale can kill me 10 times over vs. 50 times over? Nope. Bring on the $10k Titans! Edit - oops, almost forgot...

Also makes the winning that much more sweet when it happens. How's your alt/fun hanger strategy working out? Is it helping you enjoy the game more? Def more fun, once I got over not placing top spot all the time, lol. Highlights include: - Get to play a variety of bots. - Still climb in rank, just more slowly, so I’m not tanking with the weaker bots. - I’m able to compare many bots at level 9 before deciding if they are worth more investment. - The landslide defeats are over much more quickly. - The (rare) really good MM battles are that much more fun. Landing 10 au is a real accomplishment. - I don’t jack up MM when I duo with clan mates. I saw a well known Honor player high up there recently w a 12% win rate, yikes! MM in Champions League 2 just plain sucks. I guess this strategy is in a grey zone of active League management, but I’m well north of 7k cups and always go full out for the win.

Do you still switch to the heavy hitter hanger for your honor based tasks (top honor for kills/damage)?

Increasing the ceiling is okay if it brings benefits for the masses: reduced entry cost for out of meta equipment, increased minimum wage (silver/battle). I don’t see how the playerbase benefits from them being able to spend more? I guess we will have to wait for their honor based silver payouts.

Do you still switch to the heavy hitter hanger for your honor based tasks (top honor for kills/damage)? When I need to. I run the main hanger when squadding (most of the time, not always) and that’s usually puts a good dent in those tasks. And because I’m in lower Champions League (Champions League 20-ish), when I do run the big guns it makes short work of those tasks. And I might run 50 games at the end of the month to boost my stats for the all important “Whip it Out” month-end showcase thread, lol.

I’m not saying that there is any benefit for F2P, just that there isn’t any additional pain, lol. Well, except that maybe the landslide losses are over more quickly.

Rollo is Senior VP of 500 club marketing and public relations, he has free reign to speak for me. But when you come into the F2P revival tent and sign up for a buying Phildo support session, you must say, “hi, I’m so and so, and I’m a Phildo buying addict....” And it will go good from there

That plan sounds better day by day......
