So I've been here for 2 months, and I think it's a great game. I'm a bit biased having grown up with all the different strategy games through the years though. I've noticed, however, that they try to charge an exorbant amount for any type of special package, and the price has been getting higher and higher to qualify for these free packages. The $5 for 250 was a great deal, but then it went downhill from there.
Lets start with their email "$4560 free cents!" In order to get that, you have to spend $3000 dollars. Who in their right mind is going to spend $3000 dollars in one sitting on a game? I'm going to throw this out there and wager a guess, anyone who is reading this thread did not spend $3000 to buy 30,000 coins and got 45,600 coins for free.
Now we've got "Spend $50 and get $18 free!" Again, way to much for my budget. I come from a long line of MMO's, and I'm used to paying $15 a month, and I WILL NOT go over that limit for a monthly subscription which, IMO, that's all cents equates to be. So I was fine with spending $30 every two months, and getting 6 packages a year. October happens to be the month I was to spend $30 to get 300 coins, and get my free package, so I click that little gift box to see what package I'm going to get, and apparently they have decided to do away with the packages you get for spending $30, so now I won't spend anything and they lose out on $30 and I will keep playing the game. So who loses out in this deal?
If I am misinformed, and they still have $30 packages and they just decided to place the information on them elsewhere, please anyone let me know where I might look. Until some sort of reasonable package comes along for $30 or less though, I won't be spending anything until then. IMO, Anything more than $30 is to much to spend for a subscription to a game. Otherwise, I'd just spend money going out to eat and watch movie every night.
