1 day 16h for 400 orkan pieces, 6 days for top level pieces, really. I took a break for a year and came back. Making these rediculously long wait times in the work shop is about to make me quit again.

That's exactly what I was going to say. Now I need like a week to complete only one Avenger, and I need three of them, and then level 'em up, which is totally unfair because I'm already getting paired with people that already has dose kind of equipments. I'm going to need to wait a month to play in same condition as my opponents and teammates? Really??

This is nuts. FIVE DAYS for 400 Falcon components? Up from 20 hours? It's ok for me, I have five solid hangers. But imagine just starting the game? "Maybe with 20 mil and a solid month of crafting and upgrading one of your bots will be average." Wicked smart strategy for growing your base, boys.

Well they tried long acquisition times and short upgrade and they failed. Then they tried shirt acquisition and they failed again. This mental 「going solo」 storm brought us to today, where they are trying to mix these two in a non full left rudder or full right way. So the acquisition time is going up and the upgrade time will probably go down with 4.3. They are learning the job. It is now evident they don't know how to manage games of this scale. I used to subscribe to the evil genious theory but it's simple and worse than that. You,me and all the rest are paying for their apprenticeships in this profession. We are here to fill their CV with bullets and their heads with know how. Enjoy what you can and that is that. Don't stress for their career progression. Stress about yours  |

You mean the 20-150 you get until you have to spend 10-40k tokens? |

Get the components from Royale. You mean the 20-150 you get until you have to spend 10-40k tokens? Yes, you have to spend your tokens to get real numbers of components. It should be relatively easy to save up 300k to 400k tokens in a week if you play a lot and are not in a real low league. That will get you a good start on what you're after. If you're only getting 20-150 components you're doing it wrong. |

If you're only getting 20-150 components you're doing it wrong. ???this Exactly when WS2 Time an Cost was announced i started bringing my comp count to 8k or more so i could use Royale to finish them off when i need. with Royale i can get at least 1500comp or a little more with 6flips for around 3000-4000k in tokens, i spin once a week with 2k in keyes mostly silver chest. i was able to get just about everything i've been wanting for awhile, so i'am just gonna use that extra wait time needed for comps now to finish upgrades. i can see how this screws all the newer player though. what they should do is make Workshop lvl Progression take off Acquistion time for comps. the higher the level the less time it takes to get those Comps. |

On newer equipment, sure, I understand why they increased the times. But on older stuff that was converted to components from gold and WSP, WHY!? A Rog, Carnage, orkan, Taran or whatever is not gunna show up in Royale. And the last time I got any of those from Black Market was never. I've gotten a few pinatas and a couple gary's. Oh yeah, my last key dump was 24 bronze spins and I got 3 Boas. Silver crates have been a total waste of my time.

Making these rediculously long wait times in the work shop is about to make me quit again. WS times increased due to one or more of the following reasons. Sort of this is what my take is in relation to the possible reason
a. Distribution cycle
1. Not enough of certain items are in the field
2. Make acquisition easier
3. Saturation of items reaches optimal level
4. Tighten up on acquisition
5. Back to point 1 after some time.
c. revenue optimisation
d. introduction of new features are practically always generous and are wound back soon after.

It's not a bad strategy, but I think it should complement and not replace. |

bayscout It should be relatively easy to save up 300k to 400k tokens in a week ... Whaaaaattt? please tell me how you do this? Play a lot and use honor boosters if you have them. I also have a lot of luck getting tokens out of bronze chests. |

I don't do boosters ... but even so I wouldn't get close to 100k in a week - I guess I don't play enough either  |

It's not a bad strategy, but I think it should complement and not replace. It's not exactly the same. Workshop will get you 2,400 components in the same time, but it will cost you 7.36 million Silver if you're trying for a bot like Mender. Royale obviously costs no silver and there is a "fair" chance you get lucky and get 5,000 or more components. |

It's the same answer as every question, to try and get you to buy more gold.

"Maybe with 20 mil and a solid month of crafting and upgrading one of your bots will be average." Wicked smart strategy for growing your base, boys. So with all the long wait times, building and upgrading, how is someone supposed to stay enguaged in this game? I start a build and an upgrade and then go away for 5-6 days until they are done. I grind out a few million silver in between upgrades and builds but mostly wait. How is this supposed to motivate me to play more??? I am really not getting these changes! |

And then you can't afford to take them past level 9 because the amount of Ag needed is ridiculously huge. Yup the new economy is great!Because of the excruciatingly painful upgrade times you can amass Ag.(never quite got that one) And you spend less Au,thus accumulating it!(another pearl of wisdom )Pix loves and cares about it's customers! |

Every time I read a thread like this, I get a little bit of that warm and fuzzy feeling you get, when your expectations come true, but it's none of your problem any more.

How exactly do they expect to get new players? I don't post much, but do read the forums a lot. The bottom line is pixonic wants to make as much $$$ as possible. That's fine, but they wont get a red cent from me. this game is no longer fun, and I see no reason to continue. Thanks pixonic!
