Does vip just get you extra silver & xp? Because I'm overloaded with silver already. Getting gold is the hard part. Gold is used for so much of the good stuff. I've already spent like $50 because I get sick of waiting to get enough.
Also..on the one upgrade slot. That needs to be addressed..if you buy more slots to have more robots in a game. Then it should unlock extra upgrade slots as well. This way you can at least upgrade each of your robots at least once a day with your earnings.

Premium only gives you a 50% boost your your level xp and the silver you earn per match. When you say 'loaded' with silver, how much do you have?

Like 5510352 now on silver. The weapons I want to get are either gold or workshop. I saved workshop to buy the fujin. Now I have to save for good weapons that cost workshop points. You can use silver to upgrade a bot or weapon. But heck it takes a day or more to complete an upgrade. Plus you can only do one bot/weapon upgrade at a time..it's a bit lame to wait that freaking long.

Yeah I'm at the point where my updates take 3 days or more. Pix wants you to spend $$$ to speed up the process. Been tpted a few times I admire. I've already spent about 100 bucks. I look at it this way. I've put in 100s of hours in a game I really enjoy. May as well help out the developer financially and myself with some premium bots and weaps.

You might not believe this, but 55M silver only gets 1 ECC Thunder to level 11 - it's not enough to get it level 12. 55M silver only gets 1 Tulumbas to level 12 and a second Tulumbas to level 9 --- that's it. You need easily 550-750M silver to reach level 12s on a competitive hangar. Pixonic has set it up that you can't make enough silver to feed upgrades continuously unless you play an inordinate amount of matches --- or you buy up Premium.

You'll need a billion or more diver to max your hangar. My upgrades cost about 30 mill per right now. Save that silver man it eventually becomes more valuable than gold

Right now you simply have enough silver for your current needs. Later on, you will need vast amounts of silver. Gold is something you'll desperately want for a while and then kind of just run out of things to buy. Workshop points are a bit like that too.

Premium at lower levels may not be ideal, if u aren't doing enuff damage yet to maximize. But as someone who has spent 100m silver just getting to level 9, I would recommend premium (if in your budget) as soon as u start banging at 400k+ damage. You WILL run out of silver at some point. Get it when u can.

Well I haven't got anything to level 10 yet. My bots are 3 through 7 so far in what I have. About the same on weapons. So for now silver isn't an issue..it's taking so darn long for a freaking upgrade it's almost a reason to get mad & not want to play lol.

My primary account, my silver has gone from a peak of 250m down to 170m now just getting my favored weapons to level 10. 10! The upgrades to 11 and 12 are much more expensive.

For me, I'll just wait for the long upgrade while I'm saving enough silver for the next upgrade, then another, then another until I reach level 12 weapons.

It is need for so so many games like this one. The companies know this and they make a lot of money off people being impatient. Learn the lesson. Wait,take it slow. You'll get to where you need to be in time. Just practice being patient.

Do not presume to tell me how to feel, behave, or what to do. This is how I look at things. Dont like it, too bad. You are free to disagree, and thats about it. Otherwise, "shut up and play". Practice not lecturing.

I am not making any demands on you at all.no where in there did I say "You must do... Or shall do... Or have to do...".
All I advocated was patience. If you find this advocation problematic, don't listen. It has no impact on me either way.

Actually the capital ship and tech 2 skills in Eve Online can measure two months to half a year. ps I was doing research on some carrier prints in optimized conditions and the completion to acceptable Masters League/pl levels was over a year.

VIP needs some kind of shot in the arm, especially once you reach Level 30 and the XP becomes well.. Useless. As it stands, yes, the extra silver is nice and can help upgrades along, but it feels lackluster for the price.
I really hope they re-evaluate it and consider either adding maybe a 25% Upgrade Rate boost, or another queue, or *something*. As it stands it will take months for players to get bots to full 9, 10, or beyond status. Which sucks, considering good players are eventually capped-out from skill by sheer numbers at the higher leagues. For people in the mid game, it would make a world of difference and might just incentive those people on the edge to go ahead and make that purchase.
Maybe they could do something for the F2P players, and implement a speed boost for WSP? Like, a one-off option akin to the Gold option we have now. Pay X Amount of WSP for a Y amount Boost to the research speed. As it stands, I mean I'm sitting on 30k that is doing jack all for me, but I'm only 8/8 with a few level 9 Weapons. I could really use a boost, and Gold is just too prohibitive (though I am using it whenever I have enough).

My other game of choice is Iron Force and it's exactly the same. They want you to spend money or gold to upgrade faster. If you want to do that then that is your prerogative. If not then patience is the name of the game. If you really looked at upgrades from one level to the next it isn't all that great or imo significant enough to spend money to speed them up.

Yeah..I'm a bit new to this kind of gaming. I enjoy playing online with real people vs the pc. I live in a area where there isn't much for Internet than cell phones or satellite. So being able to play this on my phone & iPad has been a blast. Just hooked me into spending money for lack of patience. I figured I'm supporting the developers at least. I'm done with buying stuff now. I'm happy with what little I have. Over time I can work towards getting all this other cool stuff people have.
Too bad you can't have a trail test of what you like to see if it's what your looking for or not. Or trade them with others.
