Turrets on sale? yeah right!

Recommended Posts

I was excited to see that my favorite turret won the votes and the upgrades are now on sale for 50% off because...

 

I've been trying to upgrade my Ricochet as best as I can with as many crystals as I can find, but its a slow processes and now I am to the point that each upgrade takes 5+ hours. So, the other day I decided to spend REAL money and purchase crystals.... My turrets are not ACTUALLY on sale! I'm very familiar with the prices of my upgrades and now when i try to upgrade, its full price! Full price to purchase upgrade, full price to speed up and sadly FULL TIME to upgrade. 

 

Also, since i am in complaint mode.... the purchases i did make with REAL money (not the transaction but rather inside the game) were useless! I bought a paint that is supposed to protect me from fire and ice and its almost as if i didn't buy anything at ALL!!! i saw ZERO performance increase! Why did i spend 9,000 crystals on a paint to protect me from fire and ice if it WONT PROTECT ME?!? even when i play lower rank tanks where I KNOW their tank is not as good as mine.....

 

I am a fan of the game and want to continue to play but it's starting to really feel futile.... Futile = bored. Bored = no more game play. No more game play = no more real money! :-)

 

Please advise.

Um, the sale is on improvements for M1, M2, and M3 Rico. Instead of micro-upgrading it's for players who wish to purchase M1/M2/M3 Ricochet. Also, paints don't always give you noticeable protection, but they do help.

Ok first of all you should know that upgrading your M0 or M1 Turret or hull is entirely worthless. It's only when you get to M2 that you should think about upgrading the turrets and hulls. I'm calling it worthless for the main reason being the M1  and M2 upgrades are available in smaller spans of xp making the MU totally worthless since it will be washed away when you get the next M.

 

Well every paint in this game has a certain weakness. if you take the paint "Zeus" (which is available in far latter stages of the game ) which costs a whopping 250000 crystals does have 50% protection against firebird but it lacks protection against long range weapons. I'm suggesting you to wait and explore a game a little bit more before start spending money in it. Once you have a general idea on what kind of a player you are, what kind of weapon you're good  with and in which map's you're good at  you will be able to easily decide the correct protection for yourself.

 

Hope it helped,

Regards,

OK. good tips... but don't i have to upgrade my M0 completely before i can get to the M1? or is it a Rank thing?

 

What kind of player am I? I am NOT a camper! I cant stand campers/camping (long range weapons like Shaft and Rail). its boring despite the high body count. I am a "Make it happen" kind of player. Capture the flag, I'm going for the flags! Control points, I'm gonna get as many as i can!! Death match isn't really were my fun comes from but it is where the crystals are and now that i bought the double XP pass, I have to fight DM to make use of it ;-( 

 

I understand that paints have their Pros and Cons (as with any thing - like cars... if you want fast off the line then you'll suffer in top speed and vice versa) but my paint just hasnt helped at all and its expensive to upgrade and TAKES FOREVER!!! my next fire protection upgrade is 2k crystals and will take 1D1H to upgrade ... that sucks! but o-well.

 

Thanks you for the responses!

The sale is on buying modifications (M0, M1, M2, M3) and not on MicroUpgrades (MUs).

There are no issues related to what you reported, the sale is going on as it was planned.
