Thread: Free Speed Up Issue!

    Default Free Speed Up Issue!

    I just want to get other peoples thoughts on the free speed up (under 5mins build times). I think it's great however the game only allows you that benefit if your current building project would have been under 5mins with construction level of '0' (i.e. I can build a level 3 iron mine in 2.5mins yet I don’t get the free upgrade). If feel that this is unfair for those who have spent the money (which is a lot) and time (194 hours from lvl 9 to 10) and I feel the game should check current build times regardless of construction level and award the free upgrade if your build time is truly 5mins or less. (Does that make sense?) Thanks!

    I think the way it is, is perfectly fine and fair to everyone.

    No one has an edge on anyone else. I think we should be happy there 'is' a speed up time for anything.

    I thoroughly disagree with you totally on your comment. Anyone who wants to dump the cash into this game has a MAJOR advantage over people who choose to play "Free Forever". Also this would be a game wide change and not giving anyone an advantage over another. I'm at a disadvantage now because I focused on construction, where as someone with lvl 10 archery could do massive damage to me. I feel you’re wrong on the advantage comment.

    Free upgrades (under 5 minutes) come from the base build times not from any decrease bonuses from heros or otherwise.

    IT works exactly as the mechanic was deinged as far as I can see. and it makes perfect sense.

    You can't research level 10 archery in less than five minutes, and can't speed it up for free.

    that want what he was saying. i belive what he was asking was if the wording on the free speed up says "under 5 min" then if your construction takes less then 5 min you should have the opt to speed it up for free. i happen to agree, i cant see the waste of a 15 min speed up scroll on 2 min of construction. if therefor the game does not recognise it will take me 30second to build something after i have invested time or money and time (buying coins to buy scripts to advantage myself) then i might be frustrated at the need to contine to baby sit my construction. i belive That the the crux of DrTarrs question. how hard is it for the game to recognize that under 5 min is under 5 min

    This. It doesn't say "If without your Construction you could do this under 5 minutes, you can speed up for free".

    If players invested their resources in Construction, the argument is that building more advanced structures under the free speed up should come along with that, because they focused their strategy on building things.

    AND STILL, free speeds-ups are based on on the BASE BUILD TIMES of structures.
