If its replacing it, then I think its pretty good. If its yet another cost I think its a little much Post Extras:       mattbuck Eeyore Reged: 02/13/04 Posts: 3285 Loc: Nottingham, UK Re: [Neveron 2012, un-official poll] The New Training Experience (NTE) ...

Expert training would be like 100 mill. -------------------- Harbingers of Chaos COME WAR WITH US!!

Any empire that wants to have money for anything else will have a gunnery 5-8 army. There is another joke: Any empire who is not war ready becouse of gunnery and wants to go to war will need about 3 and a half month for training any 8/8 unit to something around 2-4.

[Re: buc]       #164038 - 02/13/12 08:18 PM (24.17.137.174) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   Its worse than just cost. They don't actually do crap all for your skills. Best setting under old system would actually improve your empire. You might even get - gun. Under this new system with logarythmic difficulty to skill down, you have a brainiac gunner if he gets 4 gun. I've been running "extremely high" training setting in a small testing empire and I have had my units skilling up from 5 gun to 6, with the only skilldowns being 8 to 7 gun. So even at extgremely high my army seems to be balancing out at a 6 gun average. Its just like everything else... the basic underlying idea has merit, but the implementation is horrid. -------------------- HoC Gaming - Come war with us!

[Re: dieaready]       #164043 - 02/14/12 01:09 AM (109.246.128.150) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   I have to admit Katrar that I noticed the same. Had a soldier drop for 4 to 3 gun in my lev 3 (veh gunner) only for the next set to reveal that the original 3 veh gunner I had in another tank skilled up to 4. That was the best of it. So far the majority of skill downs are on low skill, and the skill ups have hit the decent gunned units. Now, I do think we need to wait maybe 2-4 weeks for the system to balance out - remember that as it hasn't run before there will be no block on what skills up and what doesnt due to time. So in short we need more time to assess this. Also I think now we will see empires saving for a "training phase", turning their training up for a week or 2, then down to a manageable level again.
