Damn, I didn't get a chance to get the last new ones...smh. Didn't realize they were limited editions.

I guess I better act faster this time.

Or the same size as a robotics facility (the ground unit building).
I knew saving my money instead of replacing my dead biowarfare troops was smart! I mean, how perfect is this?

That takes too much effort... I'm trying to upgrade my composites and other boost buildings, and I'm trying to unlock some of those cool new units. I'll work on it eventually.

I just thought we had time. I knew anniversary building was limited so I worked hard to get two quickly.. I had no clue artic rig was limited or I would have saved for it. Why can't they slap a limited sign on it like the limited editions. So very annoyed.

Wow, I literally just began building my 2nd AMR 3 hours ago. I didn't realize they would discontinue them so quickly after BFG.

I know the Anniversary Center was a limited time offer. But have they removed the Arctic Oil Rig from the strore as well? I cant tell, because I have two of them built. Maybe Gree should add a red "limited edition" strip at the corner like they already do with units and sets.

My LLP never got a rig and yes it is gone. There definitely should be something in game that says they are "limited time only".

Everyone who is able to get these new ones better act fast. If it follows the same trend they will be gone in two weeks when battle for Egypt is over.

I kind of hope some event comes up in the future where they bring back all the old buildings. I might be able to save up for this one since I know the timeframe, but I didn't get to buy an Anniversary Center or Arctic Mining Rig.

I think we get the drill now... Expect a limited time cash building for each new WD event. Less time to get both now, so I doubt many people will get 1 let alone 2.

I agree wholeheartedly. It's stupid things like this that make me frustrated with the game. I even started making space on my base for the other buildings, only to see they are gone. How hard is it to program a "limited" sign into the code?

I won100M thanks to daily scratchers on February 11. I didn't know there was a new building available (arctic mining rig) so I've spent the money on expansion and sea units.
After I noticed the mining rig in the store I sent a ticket to Gree with the request to cancel the purchases because I really wanted to buy the mining rig.
I'm still waiting on a reply from Gree but in the meantime the rig is gone!!!!!

Let's hope they will reply in time and see if I can get the villa.

Don't be surprised if they reject ur request. Just imagine if they get into the business of giving out do-overs. They r already swamped with tickets to fix glitches, hand out units, make game improvements, etc.

The worst part about this is, if it is going to be gone after the next faction war, we really only have 15 days to save up enough money to buy it. There is no way at my level that I can hang on to that amount of cash during the faction war itself.

These buildings are great, it is a shame though that they are time limited. So far I have been lucky and and managed to save up without getting raided.

2nd Dan, You have to have 10 posts to start a thread. Looks like you have 11 now, so if you sign out and back in you may be able to start a thread.

I found that once I had the ability to start a thread, you will notice that you don't have to type "dog" in the question when posting a reply.

02-20-2013, 01:29 PM
Think i should be able just to get them both on the last day.
I think the only buildings worth having now are oil rigs, nanos and refineries. The new ones really take away the purpose of having many other buildings. Stat inflation is good for the people that can afford it.

I have no idea why anyone would think the AMR would be in store after BfG. There was an obvious theme to the past several weeks (arctic), and that was bound to change...

Anyway,

I don't think it is a shame, at all. I think it's great to have challenges, such as these limited edition buildings, that everyone can partake in. Say you get attacked and lose $5 million. Isn't there a cap or something on how much you can be attacked in a day? Like, after attacking a player x amt of times, it says, "player can't fight"? This allows my attacks & raids more purpose, and, too, I have initiative to complete more valor missions.

It actually quite simple to get these buildings...it just requires you losing a bit of sleep. i've managed to get AMR and Villa in less than 24 hours. And I only had 16k defense when I got the AMR, but I did sell 50 million worth of buildings. For the Villa, I managed to get to 107 million before selling a few buildings to make the difference...didn't get attacked once. But even if you do get attacked once, it gives you another two hours to safely get the money because you can't be attacked again.

How? I overvaulted all the way to 50 million and was on track to getting the building in another 24 hours, then I got attacked by some guy and lost 15 million. Another guy took almost 10 million and I spent the rest of my money on defense units. Bought a composites factory too and my defense is from 31,000 to 35,000. The same guy still is attacking me. I think I may be in his newsfeed somehow.

You can hit "refresh" for the rival list till your target reappears. Doesn't take long.

You can also ask the person to give you a break. I've multi-attacked over-vaulted players, and will continue to do so to the same players, unless they politely ask me if they can have a chance to save.

I've been saving up for one of the gucci buildings since they introduced them... though I'm glad I didn't get the last one... I think this one is much better...

I'm level 29 with 90 million on hand :(

I hope I can get this stupid building...

stephen2013

Yes, it'll disappear after the Raid on Egypt is over, which is about 12 days.
Also, what is your IPH? Since you already have 90 million saved up, you
should easily be able to grab the last 30 million or so.

dam, i should check the forums and store more often. Just started upgrading my AC to lvl 3 a few days ago. I have 44m saved so I should be able to get x2 of this building without too much worry. raking in 17.2m every 2 days from just 2 artic rigs is nice(:

With an IPH of 1,584,135 and an AC about to finishing upgrading to lvl 3, how long do you think it will take to save up if I check only 3 times a day?

BSG123
03-02-2013, 07:38 PM
The majority of players with limited edition buildings aren't in the "can afford" bracket, if you're measuring IPH. They are hunters and they take money from others at a faster rate than the "can afford" person can save.

errrr...all of the limited buildings i have are earned from my base......
I tend to get robbed at around the 70-80m mark...once i have been robbed once.....i start selling my other buildings.
I usually start doing this the minute i have been hit.

i had to sell both of my oil rigs for my last villa...level 5 and 6 rigs off memory...or 6 and 7....forgot...

Anyone knows the upgrade costs/times for these buildings?

ImperialTheme
03-12-2013, 01:45 PM
It's my opinion that these buildings have drastically changed the game. My two anniversary buildings, two arctic mining rigs and two Alexandria Villas account for more than half of my 1.2 million iph. Not that at I'm complaining; it certainly makes it easier to collect large amounts of cash all at once and therefore give higher upgrades to buildings like the oil rigs and nanotech facilities. But the new vault limits are certainly a result of the large cash output from these "superbuildings". Tough to get them though, until one passes the plateau of making more money in a day than rivals can raid. I usually have to sell a lot of my more expensive money buildings in order to purchase them. Barely made it to two villas before the event was over.

Clownius
03-12-2013, 02:55 PM
Im one of the many raiders that own these buildings. With the new higher level vaults im now relying more on IPH than raiding for each one. People just dont overvault like they used too sadly :(

Wonder what they will have for us for China?

The difference between me and you is... I DIDNT sell anything, nor did I have to either.

Never had to even think about it before and I doubt I have to in the future.

whatever works for you I guess. now all you have to do is rebuy everything, TWICE.
