So I like what the devs have done here except.... Does this mean we'll get half the refund if we tear down hf buildings? I believe refund amounts are based on last upgrade price, not total building investment. I've been contemplating changing up some hf buildings. Looks like I should've done it last week.
Alright guys, your buildings should be swapped and you should be able to purchase, upgrade, and raze again. Appreciate your patience there. Refund amounts are based on the total cost of the building, including previous upgrades. Because the total cost to upgrade is the same, you will see now difference here.
Any chance of a similar system for lands? Obviously we wouldn't be able to use them until fully paid but i wouldn't mind investing in land upgrades with broken up payments.
100% agree - with hoarfrost buildings max costing 150bill per upgrade, the trillion for the final HF is hardly comparable. Splitting in half payments or anything would be a huge plus
I personally think land should be harder to get than buildings. This solution works great for the buildings but you can't really do it with lands as you would just have half an unusable land which wouldn't be right in my opinion. To get the lands I guess you should just take the risk leaving gold out or bank.
Land already is harder to get than buildings Kezzer, with lands costing up to and greater than a trillion they are hard to achieve. In order to allow extra chance to EE war as well as osw, it makes sense that lands also have a similar progression (and I concede that a half land is an inelegant system). Maybe a deposit could be possible and you can add gold to the land over a period of time until the correct amount is "donated". This wouldn't be banking as you couldn't sell the land once you put any money into it. Just with the max one-off price of a building on HF now being 150bill, having a trillion land (purely the example I'm using because it's my next land...) it seems disproportionate. Just my opinion though
Has nothing to do with harder. The prices are to the point where I have to choose to either war or save for lands. I spend but I'm not a big enough spender to throw away what it would cost to bank and still get lands.
