    The whole "Top 125 out of 500 get a prize" is a flawed concept especially in this game with Hackers running rampant on on side and Kixeye screwing there own game in a desperate coin grab in the other.
    Have the prizes as an affordable quota and let the super coiners and hackers thrash it out for top points in a leader board. But you need to let us play the game. I built 2 fleets in toy box played for 5 mins and had 18 hours of repairs after that. Needless to say $2(that with 1/2 repair time) for 5 mins play time is not good.
    Who ever is making the marketing decisions for Kixeye is an ****. A little realism and common sense would go a long way to making this game good again.

    I would say that the FAT changes were an interesting concept. I got to mess around with some fleet ideas before devoted shipyard time to them. Otherwise, the entire FAT was what I would call a Heartbreak Ridge moment.

    What is a Heartbreak Ridge moment?  You'll know what I'm talking about if you're a fan of Clint Eastwood movies: https://youtu.be/nL6IWZhLdSM
    Yes, I'm back to playing this game. Someone shoot me.

    I was using 4 fleets. Longest repairing one was around 7hrs. The others were around 3-4.

    Wasent after "top" spot..just a hull and some fun. Finished 26th.

    I normally hate FAT. Loved this one. Adapting fleets was fun.

    Never spent a coin but I did open up 4 slots, in the end made a fleet which gave me roughly 2 hrs repair killing drones mostly came 31st and won 1 hull. was fun while it lasted but was ruined by scraping the insurance feature. Kix if your listening sort it out because I would never coin this format, this was a bad move.
