That wasn't hostile, I was laughing at you. Lighten up.

What I want is a WL dot. That dot has a total cost to purchase. That price went down dramatically for me.

If you find a lot of value in the level 1 through level 64 experience, then I agree it is a different calculus, similar to Reddog's.

For me, it just got a hell of a lot cheaper. But I'm sure you'll convince me I'm wrong



edit: look at this way and you'll see- Previously I had to spend 33 boosts to get my level 74 dot. Now I will only need to spend 24 boosts + a little extra for the new Custom upgrades.
Cheaper by a ton.



Are you going to stop creating players? Because then I agree with you. But I also don't think you are going to stop.

Not if you look long term projected numbers... as a business guy I can say with all honesty that this may be the first time I agree with your business plan for longevity... I will leave those numbers to you guys, but given 6 months you will see the fruits of this labor imho

Oh for sure. If more people build dots, it'll turn that small loss into a gain. We're well aware of that.

While you guys are making changes go ahead and announce the reduction of WR costs as well. Maybe people will want to make them again...

Technically, the cost to create a wr did decrease.

I will likely build more players under this system. Because they are cheaper on a per-player basis (both in terms of money, and more importantly, in terms of time ).

Just because you think you are not paying for something, that does not make it true. But anyways...Take out the speed in the name, then add a turbo and awd to the 4 cylinder version and poof.

Here's what I am not paying for: 9 boosts per player.

lol taut

you crack me up dude

"Faster" player development is relative to what it was before...6 months of the new player development and THAT speed will feel fast to some and slow to others...just like the current speed does.

The fact that this is for some reason the gamewide change that is going to propel this game out of Beta is hilarious to me.

In all seriousness...Good job Catch. Pleased to hear these changes.

kinda like this cuz it does help some non boosters a little bit...not much but without boosting i think lvl 51 or 52 is now the max for a player. about 10 lvls higher than what a non booster would be at with the old system

5 season plateau? Jesus. Non-elite teams will never have a chance to reach the WL now.

Why should "Non-Elite" teams make it to the WL? Isn't that kind of the point of the WL? The best of the best?

You guys can't get quiet now.

I just got my popcorn and am awaiting more conflict......

On the whole this is a positive development for GLB.
