Training Grounds Upgrades - Some Math
•
by Elongated Musket
I've seen people whine complain about thhese Training Grounds Upgrades.
So i decided to do some math.
As i see it, in the long run, the effect of these upgrades is less gold being drained from players by full training.
Yes, they do put a strain on your accounts when introduced, they do screw up the Monetary Market but that is a somewhat temporary effect.
Note(s):
- Since there is no Gold/cash returned, any calculations involving Return of investment, are futile im my opinion.
- Since you can recover gold & cash but you cannot recover strength, any calculations regarding the cost of the upgrades are also futile, (also in my opinion 🙂
).
- For upgrade costs i have taken the ones from Food/Weapon Companies (as reference).
Edit: Replaced Upgrade Costs with Incremental upgrade costs.

Assuming that they will follow your formula, i doubt that players will spend 420g for an upgrade.

They DID spend that much gold on upgrading factories, right ?
But, then again, upgrading all three Training Grounds = 1260 (from Q2-> Q6)
dude... the free traning ground was to be paid 28g to be updated... come on... all the rest is futile... IN MY OPINION
I don't get it

Upgrading all the TG to q5, 136.8 str/day , it`s like growing with that strength without buying gold from the MM(well almost ), BUT 1680g to get that ... In 3 months you get +12k strength 🙂 Pretty sure that the tanks will do that 😃
They need more ways to encourage gold buying, right ? 🙂
nice one
in the long run it ofc pays off, just the initial costs are syk high.
IMHO
Q3-Q4 100 gold
Q4-Q5 200 gold
Q5-Q6 400 gold
depending ofc on gold purchases in the next 2 months.
Actually, i think a secondary/long-term goal here *may* be adressing overproduction by "forcing" people to downgrade/sell their companies ...
As people donwgrade factories, raw companies will become practically absolete and therefore the only thing to do with them is dissolve ...
I don`t think the problem is with companies, rather with the RM companies. The price of the food/weapons is dictated by the price of the RM. My idea is that they want to make the gold more stronger, that`s why for the past weeks, there was always a promotion for something, thus with you cc, you couldn`t do sh*t. All that so you would start buying gold from them. They could have doubled the no. of frm/wrm needed for food/wep or adjust the price of RM companies( 8500cc, is less than 10g, but produ
...is less than 10g, but produces more). Note. My idea would be 30-40k cc Q4 RM. Instead they are bringing cc into the game, and extracting the gold from the game with all this promotions.
We`ll see if they do implement q4 TG 😃 wouldn`t mind to have the SS in 2.72 days 😃

Nice chart.
