well i have at least had three replies so far from tim @ kixeye support - this seems to be a major problem for them and they are desperately trying to fix this bug........ and they do have a sense of humour ;o)
Both yous speak of certainty when i try and show more angles to what yous say.
If we reset, take different path cause lack of coins and find another bug. Kixeye win cause more bugs they fix the better, players win as a whole because its less for someone else to encounter, or even take advantage of. Thats the win win i hinted at on earlier post.
Like i said, many different paths to take, more travelled more found
BTW, i havent seen anyone higher of level than me getting reset, so i lose the most lol im 40k exp off lvl26 and when this upgrade finishes on storage to lvl7/8 i think i will prob hit 26. Considering mine been gone since Thursday night, yeah loads progress lost.
My personal angle is lack of decent feedback we getting, everything else is running as it should be for a closed beta. Accept the fact someone decided to launch an update on the friday before holiday weekend lol He would be off my Christmas card list for sure!
sounds like you are at my level; nearly 26. fleet of plasma torp exodus creaming vegas, installing polaron beams onto the other exodus that were pre-built.
yeah, it sux losing that edge. that's one thing i was enjoying was being ahead of the curve. having more advanced tec than the rest. i know of only a couple that were ahead (including raptor).
I know that we wont be able to regain our previous position and tec lead. we were just unlucky to get the bug. probably if we would have played less during the glitch time then there would have een less chance of our data becoming corrupted.
well to dans comment about relative to when we started. my only problem with this is that at this time when we were given coins i hope we get more because as i have stated in other posts that amount of gold wont even begin to get me to where i am. i would think a better solution is by how much xp u have. because someone who started and never played could get the same amount of coins as some one who has been playing the entire time. i personally think this way is better because it is more fair. because xp basically equals how much time u have spent in the game. the high the xp the more u have played. and u r more likely to get closer to the amount of coins u need to get back to where u were.
Exp is a good indicator, as its more relativce to the time you invested. But like i said im happy wth the comp now if i get 50 coins per 5 levels like everyone else.
@William i was the same, just on the curve slightly behind acid and red. But this time, i think i might do things alot different, stall out my level a bit more and dont waste time on junk things
I get install date makes sense, but xp maybe the most just way. But as many have said there is zero guarantee and any gold compensation is good. Just give yourself some room to improve. I know I'd do things way different and would be a bad to the bone level 10 if I started over.

Sorry that would be an exploit as I don't have an issue.

just a suggestion.
thx
I totally agree with this post. It seems silly to compensate someone who played a lot the same as a level 5 just because they started playing at the same time.
You will be compensated an amount relative to your install date.
I have to say that this is a bunch of crap. I had 30 Rancors, tons of Genesis and Longbows, Level 4 OP, 10 Defense Platforms at level 6 with Plasma Torps, Level 5 Miners of each kind and all the fixins on the way up there. I have the ability to check on my account several times throughout the day while working allowing me to technically play more than most. My reset compensation doesn't amount up to that. Couldn't use the technology that you guys got to sort it out more carefully without a reset? Or even use the same/similar formula you came up with the coin values for this to base it on total assets/time played?
Feedback? Gave plenty of that. Went outta my way to try and figure out a few things. Of course, there's little to no communication from Kixeye so for all I know I was throwing my info at a wall or if it was of any use except to give you my another ID to reset... Would be nice to know if that was of any use or if it was merely a pin dropping in a metal shop? Not like I have any inclination or incentive to try to refer anyone else to this game anyway.
It is not enough i was just short of 23 with 5 fleet of longbow 1 fleet of Rancor back to 40% with one fleet with 2 longbow the rest corvette i got 265 gold + 50 each 5 up i am now down to 2 gold lvl 17. I think i do not have the heart keep this going and i am in another planet and sector :-q

This is waht I'm sayn but get told I'm cryn lol. If they cannot fix an issue without resetting ppl what will be the future of this game be like??? something worse than BP.... If they are going to reset ppl oh well, but to say they are going to compensate us for time and then give us crums is another F'U from kixeye. We are putting in "OUR" time to test "THEIR" game and what do we get but a "F" with a side of "U" for our time and efforts and feedback...
Hell ya 08/30/2013 I finally became a UNICORN OVERLORD (It only took 2 years 6 months lmao)

um so some one can start right away play 1 hour and get lots of coins and some one can spend weeks playing it and only get a little thats kinda bull if you ask me
for me the fun of starting at the very start of the game is to test my strategy against my peers. see who has the best strategy. being knocked back a couple of weeks takes a bit of that element out of the game. its no longer a level playing field then. we're just tallying the coins required to catch up to where we were previously in the game, so we'll still be on a similar level as we were before. just to figure out what our progress would be worth in terms of coins.
Anyway, we will all have to wait and see how kixeye handles this and what "the effected users will be compensated in gold for their lost time" really means .
It takes even more strategy to beat your opponent from a disadvantage.
I was almost
at level 28, with the coins they gave me after the unwanted unnecessary
reset I can only make it to level 18. I would need 10 times the amount
of coins they gave me to get back to where I was.
I was reset last night and only been playing a couple of days and received 150 coins at start. I was at lvl 16 and had just started building longbows, now I am at lvl 18 with less tech than what I had but with higher building lvls. For me the reset worked out but like I said only played 2 or 3 days before I lost base and got 150 gold for it.
and yes i know it's beta and bug, glitch or reset is part of the risk to test beta. i was just hoping that because of it's beta they could give me back to my level with free gold (free for everybody in fact)
