    [FORSAKEN MISSION]
    I think the biggest problem with two elites a week is that it takes away from my time to hit bases, to help my crew with draconian armadas, or to try and open reaver bases.  However, with the tokens BADLY needed by me to finish builds before the raid I see no alternative to grinding out for tech i don't need/want.

    Please help by reducing the amount of new content.  Most of the T4 prizes are junk.  In addition to my crafting idea why not reduce the amount of new content across the board?  Would give us more time to free play and experiment.  I'm thinking 1 (one) T4 prize for the 1st week after the raid.  Then a second T4 prize the week before the next raid.  That's two FM prizes per month.  The rest of the time tokens available for those that want them.  Grinders could get 4 bonus token prizes to help with ship building.  Non-grinders can have a whole week off from the mission to do whatever.  People behind could get multiple prizes per week to actually catch up.

    Also drop the raid prizes.  Hull, Weapon, Special.  That should be THREE (3) RAIDS.  If you did that, you'd have 4 top fleets per YEAR.  People who want to coin could build MULTIPLE versions of a fleet.  Those who are on the lighter side of coining get time to tweak their fleets the way they want.  The rest of us who coin little/none actually get to build the fleet and play with it.

    I think at this point in the game the crafting is opening a giant can of worms that wouldn't help the game. If it was implemented earlier in the game I may could see it helping but at this point I think it will turn into more a of problem than it's going to be worth.

    I stopped playing WC and Vega cause of crafting.   It will be terrible for the game if you follow that same model.   Please don't ruin it any further.

    Maybe a second shipyard or additional bays to build multiple ships.  These 20+ day builds and 5-15 day refits have a backlog at the shipyard for the next 6 months saying I don't get any new blueprints or new hulls during those 6 months

    Im sorry RedBear to attack your post, but it makes no sense. Nobody tells you that you have to do the forsaken mission twice and by you saying the prizes suck in t4 it shouldnt be a problem for you to stop doing it. If helping your crew is something you want to do, then do it. You dont have to take the new content if you dont want it.  If I misunderstood your post then I am sorry. I just see it as you not liking the forsaken mission and hate grinding because you like hitting bases.

    The crafting idea sounds horrible. Don't the Devs have their OWN ideas? Reading the forums for the other KIXEYE games has prevented me from even STARTING to play them, mainly due to things like this. Hopefully @CMDOOMROOSTER has seen some of THAT feedback.

    So glad I bought Black Ops 3 instead of coining my tiger fleet....this game is a joke now.
    If you could complain about anything it should be about black Ops 3, you pay 60 dollars for the same game they put out every year and just change the name. lets not even talk about the extra 60 dollars you are going to pay for in DLC maps that you already paid for in past COD games. talk about a joke.
    I didnt pay 60, used for $30, and a new set of weapons, zombie story, and game dynamic to batttle other players in keeps me happy year after year. I DO NOT need to buy new maps, new guns, or anything to enjoy it.

    NOTHING ever gets nerfed, tweaked, or jacked like in this game. 

    I have only bought a few maps over the years and regret only one of them (the dumb **** moon level for zombies).

    It is brilliant, it is a grind, but never feels like it. I went through all levels of prestige in COD MW (about one per month), then went to the first level of prestige in each title thereafter. Advance warfare took some getting used to, and I enjoyed prestiging 14 times. The only title I skipped was Ghosts, that was crap.
    Level 102, Collected all the hulls kix wants me to coin! Sectors travels...who cares play the game and don't whine when you get hit!

    To prove a point.  Some players say BP is the most expensive game out there.  The vid shows its not.

     Any further discussion on this topic needs to got there.

    The only point that that vid shows is one man's opinion and not a factual representation of how much each game cost per advancement, but I understand where you are coming from.  gilbert.reno said:

    And this point is completely dead on...most players can stand behind this observation 100% I think and I also believe that new base weapons/defenses should be addressed considering how much it is lacking with all the crazy fleets are on the water now.

    [FORSAKEN MISSION]
    I think the biggest problem with two elites a week is that it takes away from my time to hit bases, to help my crew with draconian armadas, or to try and open reaver bases.  However, with the tokens BADLY needed by me to finish builds before the raid I see no alternative to grinding out for tech i don't need/want.

    Please help by reducing the amount of new content.  Most of the T4 prizes are junk.  In addition to my crafting idea why not reduce the amount of new content across the board?  Would give us more time to free play and experiment.  I'm thinking 1 (one) T4 prize for the 1st week after the raid.  Then a second T4 prize the week before the next raid.  That's two FM prizes per month.  The rest of the time tokens available for those that want them.  Grinders could get 4 bonus token prizes to help with ship building.  Non-grinders can have a whole week off from the mission to do whatever.  People behind could get multiple prizes per week to actually catch up.

    Also drop the raid prizes.  Hull, Weapon, Special.  That should be THREE (3) RAIDS.  If you did that, you'd have 4 top fleets per YEAR.  People who want to coin could build MULTIPLE versions of a fleet.  Those who are on the lighter side of coining get time to tweak their fleets the way they want.  The rest of us who coin little/none actually get to build the fleet and play with it.

    Sorry if it isn't more clear.  I hear people tell kixeye to give them a dry dock.  They aren't going to.  I'm proposing an alternative solution.    We want to slow down the power curve.  Fewer T4 prizes = more opportunity for build tokens.  Also means people who don't have the latest and greatest have a chance to catch up.  The reason I feel I have to do T4 twice a week is to have a chance at the few token opportunities I get now.  Wthout the tokens I'm unable to build new ships fast enough.  Without new ships I can't defeat raid targets and help my team.  Pretty simple from my perspective really.  I'm saying I like tokens MUCH BETTER than new tech/prizes.

    Yes this game as become a joke for years now cause they cant get their **** straight.  Crafting is a bad idea for the fact that thatll be more crap that no one needs and Kixeye will never get it right.  Hell the whole armada thing they have going is now a joke as well cause now they cause players to hit lower ones and they people that could hit maybe 1 or 2 60s cant now because they are practically impossible and 45s are the new 60s. So now i cant collect uranium because Kixeye wants to be fucktards and also with the long build times and refits im pretty much going to quit playing for the fact ive gotta wait so long for **** to build or refit. Yes i used cuss words in my post mods and im not goin to apoligize for it for the fact that yall suck on the big Kixeye tittie and expect everyone to actually pay attention to what yall say because most of the **** yall talk about is pretty much blowing smoke up someones ****. Well ive said my piece so im just waiting to hear that Kixeye finally closed its doors cause its pretty much dead already.....

    Although repair times have been lowered there is little effect for many players as the repairs are still many hours long.... I think it was a fundamental mistake to lower repair times across the board, if you consider that a coiner will always coin (and presumably can afford and be prepared to do so) that surely there should have been a major reduction in repair times (or at least a heavily weighted scale) for "obsolete" fleets, weapons, armour and tec as these items are what your base/new players are using. If you kept repair costs/times high on all new tec then those who want it and want to use it quickly will pay, thats what they want to do. It would have zero effect on them or any mid to long term player, or I suggest to your coining graph, if the older stuff were reduced to minutes for repairs/refits/builds as these items would have little to no impact on their fleets/bases nor would they be able to progress in the weekly/monthly features to the same extent, except they (the players with the old stuff) would be able to play more rather than play short and wait a day or two to repair

    Do you have to pay to make an account? Do you have to pay to play in terms of building ships, opening and collecting cargo etc? The answer is no, therefore it's a free to play game. 

    There is an awful lot of 'free to play' games on the market of all genres that are pretty much like Battle Pirates in the sense of, without any 'speed up tokens' the game will be slow going. It's a reason why I encourage people to stick to console gaming as a lot of console games are cheaper in the long run than games like this.

    Its all money always has been always will be, as i said in an earlier post i don't mind paying just give me VALUE for money a whole fleet should not cost around 300 pounds no way no how, that's not value it closer to extortion plain and simple.
