This came up in my mind:
what if we can upgrade weapons or robots instantly simply by credit? I mean you can have upgraded thing right away, but your Ag/Au rewards from battles are automatically on hold until that credit is payed with those earns. And in addition to credit would be that you can't sell item before credit is zero.
edit: changed sentence: "Of course there has to be option to buy items normally as now." to right one: "Of course there has to be option to upgrade items normally as now."

apollo and War Child No, just upgrades can be buy with credit - no new weapons or bots. I was writing "option to buy" in OP but I was meaning "Of course there has to be option to upgrade items normally as now." My mistake !

Sounds pointless unless you're one of those people that play only 3 games a day.

OP wants to earn credit for upgrade times, while not actually upgrading anything. Sounds like something perfectly suited for someone who doesn't want to upgrade their weapons until they've earned enough of something else. Like, I want to keep my Mags lvl 9 while, "I'm working on my gold hanger."
Yeah, right buddy. We know what you want to do.

Actually I wasn't thinking that scenario and now my "idea" feels bad - so I will bury my original suggestion ! Case closed. |

When I saw this thread title, I was thinking "Yes, upgrades should be instant!"
I don't see the reason for having to wait so long for an upgrade. You already can only upgrade so fast based on how much silver you have to earn as the upgrade levels go up. Seems like just a blatant money grab to me.
Yes, I know, Pix has to make a profit, I get it.

They got that dough from pretty much saying "pay up or play mildly fun matches for two years"

While the whole silver rewards nerf/upgrade extension is a bit of a farce, the basic revenue model is better than requiring you to buy and spend resources to play matches. That would be horrible.
I'm not sure the revenue model is sustainable, however. I do know a few people that are addicted to premium, FWIW. I also do think the change is costing them one time gold sales. So I'd be curious if the change has increased or made revenue more sustainable or consistent.
