OK... I didn't notice this before...
It's only 25%? Seriously? It's been 50% every other time IIRC... I really try to be happy for the goodies but after the recent fun Pix has had with us... it's kind of insulting that this is the crumb they let drop to the floor for us mongrels to lick up. Even in their compensation/gifts their 「multiple bum-bums」 are all cinched and Grinched up.
FFS.

The event simply lowers upgrade costs by 25% for 3 days, nothing more nothing less. Including Mk2ing stuff. That might be important to some as well. Though, maybe less since the recent $1 mk2 binge. I wish it applied to pilot promotions.

Well, I feel like my rightous indignation needs room to breathe, so I am going to go with my admittedly flawed memory and say you are WRONG! (fair warning, I will continue to whine and moan even if you show proof... so don't bother. Hmph.)

Does upgrade rush stack with premium bonuses? The event simply lowers upgrade costs by 25% for 3 days, nothing more nothing less. Oh oh oh it's the COST that goes down. Thanks for the clarification, I was under the impression it reduced the upgrade times.

....70 mil needs to become 120 mil by Sunday night for Last Stand upgrades.

This is better than no reduction.
I’d say the important thing is not to have an upgrade running at all times but stockpiling silver for such occasions. You will get more bang for your currency. The other thing to consider is if you are not at the top of the food chain than pushing your upgrades constantly won’t make much difference as the MMer will take the benefit anyway and the same time will give you opportunity club at the same rate.

Why can't we just all get along and be able to discuss things like the good old days without someone getting all emotional and uppIty. Like seriously in the olden days when we had discussions and couldn't agree we went to war. PERIOD.

After more than a week only play my smurf account in Diamond, I have very limited interest in this kind of event.
In DL, playing become a pure entertainment, no more daily task to complete, target weapons/bots to upgrade, minimum Ag/Au/PC reserves etc. Yup, free from the hamster wheel.

Woo hoo, I just totally lucked out! Was sitting on 4600 Au and have enough silver to use this Upgrade Rush for maxing a Last Stand. Just needed a little more gold, so basically I was hoping for a 600Au deal to pop up in time. But I noticed I was almost at 1K keys for the BM Gold Chest. Turned on some key boosters, figuring there's no chance since I'd already won 1K Au from the chest the last spin. And blam! I hit the number again! 1000 Au from the Gold Chest right in the nick of time! Maxed Last Stand, here I come! Now I should find me a casino while the spell lasts...

I know a great free scratchies app you can download. I so totally want to see a "real" video of you losing your 「dookie」 because you just won a grand.

You need about 4700 Au to complete maxing it, but you only have to start the final upgrade stage to save - you pay at the beginning, not the end - so you’ll get it done.

Oh I needed the 5k gold in order to buy it first. I'm on Android so I should be able to get it upgraded just using ads. Thanks though!

Right like the delivery girl who drops all the food. "I won a grand and all it cost me was my job!" My reaction video could be my Ao Jun accidentally dropping into the river on Castle map or something. :-P

This should have started about 40 mins ago but hasn't started yet.
What a coincidence they too out skirmish so you cant farm for fast upgrades.

Their Facebook post clearly says 9am UTC which was 1.25 hours ago and still it hasn't started What the heck is going on with these guys? Lately it feels like everything is more slipshod and sloppy than normal.

It has started, it just doesn't show a text about discount. Try upgrading a premium module and see for yourself, its 30M.
Also as stated here, amazing coincidence that skirmish just happened to be bugged and had to be pulled this weekend...

Upgrade Overdrive for three days is sheit! Anything I want to save Ag on to level takes over 3 days for each item. I can use ads to speed the leveling by 4 hours but that's like 9 or more games for each item. I'm only saving 25% anyway. I might save 10~20M. They should make it 50% off Ag and time.

Not sure why ppl can be so sure when they are wrong.

Shows how memory can serve! These discounts have always been 25% of Ag. I use these weekends to do premium passive module upgrades which makes it easy to remember the discount. 40M to 30M per upgrade. This saves 50M over the entire upgrade levels.
Anything can be upgraded with the discount but premium passive modules cost the most relative to upgrade times so you can rush it with only 6 Ads. If the Ads stop, then clear cache in Android or reinstall app in iOS/iPad OS to start up the Ads again.
Should be no issue to get more Ads since we should be grinding hard to earn more Ag at the same time. I myself have had a Heavy Armor Kit sitting at level 1 for months and it will finally get some upgrade lovin'!

This morning I saw in the USA:
25% discount for Ag costs to upgrade No discount on the time it takes to upgrade (full Au price) 25% discount on the Au it takes to Mk2 something for the first time (375 Au)
I'm planning on upgrading stuff, then taking $a$few$months$off$. These bots will have to do!
See you all on the field of honor. :-)
