I spend money and I said no.

buy the 5 invincible planets and set them to artifact and research production log in every few hours On average every 40k Artifact your bound to get a few ship bots and Rescued prisoners. (If you have a level 5 base or better put all your energy into that) or don't spend your energy at all. (But putting it into the base would be a better idea). Within a month you should have enough space for better Mods.

Unfortunatly spending all your GP on cargo and Engineers have left you at quite a disadvantage.

And yes I also spend money. Out of every 550GP i use 50 For leveling and the rest for Items. QSE's and Planet Fluxes. I even buy Planet structures to trade for KU CTP OR EM.

I SAY NO TO BUYING 2 RANK POINTS FOR 10GP.

would I buy it, Hell yes, Would I think its fair Hell no. Right now the cheapest you can get is 7 GP per rank point, (in purchasing Tesseract Containers) this would remove ALL sales in in other feild. (since things only go up in price from here) now say 2 Rank Points for 20 GP.....

If you make it cheaper this game will be ruled by players willing to spend $ and no more fun for none spending players.

There is a Ship-Bot (2deck space)for 24GP and keep it like that.


I do spend 50$ here and there and it is for energy refills.


This is a bad idea and i hope it never gets changed

this is why i may continue to play the game but will probably never spend money on this game again i have spent close to 600 dollars and all the freebie players are tearing me up and laughing about it

if you are willing to give away these shipbots and prisoners all day long dan you should be willing to sell them for an affordable price not 100dollars per 80 80 decks for alot of us is maybe 1 module why would i have bought 500 decks with the 600dollars i have spent when i was getting 5 rank points for 10gp your trying to run a business right well i am trying to have fun playing your game and i dont think its fair that i am losing so bad after all the money i have spent this should not be happening

in cosa a rank 287 had 3k decks that is 600levels in decks he is the freebie bot/prisoner pulling master i know but how am i supposed to compete i am rank 450 and have 1k

This is a business and i dont care even if i would have spent every level in decks which i have for the past 200 my ship would still suck compared to these guys that get it from pulling arts. by selling rank points or rescued prisoners you are not just accomadating me you are accomadating any new player who chooses to spend money on the game
i would take a look at how many shipbots you have sold and how many were new players with hardly and ap per hour
in the month since this post came out i pulled about 300decks from ap which i would have bought had they not been 1.20 apiece
this post has been up here a few months so i know you read it dan and i have pretty much surmised that you have ignored it

even if 10 people were willing to buy rank points that is still more money for you

and on a personal note i am very greatfull you lowered the price of quasis 8 dollars was a little to much 5 is a lot better

sell rescued prisoners one day you might look back and be like i am so glad i listened to that guy

this game is the best pvp npc game on facebook for its type you have made a great game

For a rank point, you can get 3 scientists, 2 helmsmen, or 1 deck. Look at the GP cost of ship-bots, android helmsmen, and android scientists. The cost is 10.5 GP/rank point if you buy scientists, 10.67 GP/rank point if you buy helmsmen, and 12 GP/rank point if you buy ship-bots. So buying 2 rank points for 10 GP would give you more than twice the points per buck spent. This is an excellent idea.

Early on, I thought hiring a lot of scientists would be a good idea. I later found out that decks would have been a lot better, since you can eventually get much more research from planets than from scientists hired with rank points. Also, You need a lot of deck space to install enough mods to make a great ship. As a result, I was severely low on decks and was constantly uninstalling energy and shield mods to make room for more weapons, then uninstalling weapons to put the energy and shields back on, which was getting very expensive for me.

So when I got several thousand dollars of extra money, I decided to get a lot of GP. I got enough terraformers and qse's to make my exotic and dyson. And I spent a lot of GP on ship-bots, which was a rip-off but made combat a lot easier for me. I realize now that there is a benefit to all the scientists I hired (other than research). It's raiding ability. Hiring scientists gives you more crew members per rank point than helmsmen or tac officers. In fact, when I had a 37% raiding bonus, I was able to raid players 200 ranks higher.
