PH2 and map fragments

[corona88]

I personally invested a lot in explorers (have all 17 availables), and was upgrading them to bring back more mf (had 8 already done), so this change is not welcome for me. It was my main income (reselling mf's and good advs). I had made this choice of investment, but now I need to rethink it. The only 2 goods advs. now we can get are sftr and nords. Hope that BB will introduce new adv availables in the searches. I think we could expect a raise in Nords price, as less explorers will hunt for them. (hey BB, how about making Nords2 availables in searches )

Price only can drop because now surprise attack is cheaper than nords and much better.

Price mf will go up, will be lack of intermediate paper. Now everyone have a lot intermedia paper but after 1-2 month will be very hard buy intermedia paper.
Never be back to old price, but i remember time when mf was 7gc+

Cheaper mf is better for players who play adventure, if you want profit from mf play adventure

Inter paper is just made with HWL, I imagine plenty of others currently have a huge surplus of HWL and HWP that can easily get switched to Inter paper production. I don't see mf ever recovering above 3gc myself.

I do think BB should offer free book resets because they introduce one set of functionality and then introduce another set that makes the first set redundant with little warning. If they had said that they would make map frags producible one day, I would never have upgraded my explorers in the way that I did. They don't seem to have joined up thinking in their approach to the game, unless the whole thing was a deliberate attempt to force people to need to gem reset their science trees. Same with the new epic workyards, they are huge and will require lots of buildings to be knocked down. Getting all buildings to level 5 takes a lot of time, when you do reach that destination you find again the rug has been pulled out from under your feet. They should have made L6/L7 buildings available. They seem to be concentrating on trying to destroy the higher level players games whilst giving constant new advantages to newer players. Soon new players will be hitting level 50 in a month or two if they keep cheapening things the way they are doing. I invested books in adventure searches, luckily I saw the problem coming and sold all my reserves of Map frags before the price crashed but nothing I can do about the books without taking a hit.

If you play the game to an obsessive level you could manage 50 in 6 months or so, If you went premium from the start maybe 3 months but 1 month never going to happen.

My point was - first they introduced premium: +50% XP, then they introduce map frag production: mass producible Surprise Attack. If they keep introducing these sorts of changes it will end up that way. You used to have to fight for every resource to get the adventures to get the XP. Now it's increasingly getting handed on a plate.

prem made a huge difference, with the introduction of fairy tales and prem i did lvl 48-50 in 2 weeks. took me about 1 month to do lvl 47 with RB. 126k xp on CLT with prem and your making alot of coins at the same time. too easy i'd say and the cheap MF makes it easier for lower lvl's now. at least that has balanced the game a bit more. no point of later 40's being quicker than the rest
