I am honored the final unit is named after me - thank you to GREE... correction: GREE, if you're going to make an event more than 3 times worse than prior, please don't defame my good name to do it. I can only hope you forgot to attach a boost to a unit, perhaps upgrade 2 buildings at once or something, otherwise 4000 gold worth of energy is a poor buy, and nobody should do this.

Note, I will bold and identify if new requirements are discovered. These are unknown.

PRESTIGE MODE COMPLETE - LTQ EVENT COMPLETE


TOTALS FOR PRESTIGE MODE
Raw gains (a/d): 13,258/12,236
Bonus gains: n/a
Valor gain: 4,650
Gold spent: 3,260
Enery Used: 169,725
XP gained: 49,780

TOTALS FOR ENTIRE EVENT (both NORMAL and PRESTIGE MODE):
Raw gains (a/d): 18,385/16,410
Bonus gains: n/a
Valor gain: 7,000
Gold spent: 4,020
Enery Used: 248,128
XP gained: 63,159


Analysis to come tomorrow ... but vs Extreme Measures, this is:
- 3/4 the raw stats
- 1/8 the amount of valor
- no boosts/bonuses
- 2.5 times the energy requirement
- 2.5 times the gold
- 2.x times more xp gained
Approximately, it's 3.3 times worse than prior.

...and back to my original statement: WTF?!?!

well, as usual, nice devin!

for the "free birds", like me, get your hits in, set an alarm for ... in my case... 2.5 hours and see what comes your way.

maybe sneak a level or two in.

good luck. even with the +2 from last event, some of those levels are 10 hours +, so far! (only up to level 15 or so as it typed this)

but on the bright side, it's only 23 levels. :)

Anyone else having the problem of finishing a level and having to redo the level again?

I had one of the two-hit units that I had pre-staged one hit on, and after I took care of him, it still listed him as being an uncompleted goal

This has happened in past LTQ events to me, but when I went back to my base, the next # goal would be in my objectives. It wouldn't show that I received the money/valor/concrete/xp/unit, but it would be in my inventory. But this time I actually had to re-attack the one guy.

I remember after the first LTQ event we were all worried that LTQ events would result in huge stat inflation, I would like to think Gree listened and that is why we have comparatively weak units for the last couple of events.

this martha fokker event is getting harder; it is impossible to finish the normal mode without gold and there is no boost unit anymore. Perhaps you should go underground with this effort, Devin. Gree is tuning the event with your data!

Devin, start your own website and post the information there. :D

Devin
05-28-2013, 07:13 PM
This one is an absolute beast of an LTQ. An energy & gold monster. I hope it's worth it!! I'm scared at what the levels 24-29 will be. Lvl 23 was 11,000 energy already.

BigD@wg
05-28-2013, 07:15 PM
Thanks for walk-thru Devin. Another amazing job!

Plus you just saved me a bunch of time. Stopping at level 13 in normal mode. There is no point in me continuing to try and finish normal mode for a 5000ish stat increase.

GREE - If you want people to spend money on these events, you have to make it worthwhile. Without boost units, the event provides little to no incentive.

Current LTQ event = Gree FAIL

05-28-2013, 07:21 PM
WOW DEVIN that is insane, i sure hope there is something more for you than just ur own unit for this massive increase in the requirements. As everyone has said thanks for all you do, don't let a juvenile ruin it for you with the diarrhea of the thumbs that has been displayed on here today.

I would like to think there will be something really nice on level 27 or something? Guess u will find out but my fingers are crossed, I'd like a reason to add you to my inventory. Maybe they are planning on fixing the boosts from the last ltq which would give us +40% energy regen

05-28-2013, 07:25 PM

Shameful. that is the only word for this ltq. i feel at once elated and saddened for devin. recognition that he truly deserves has been given but to have your name attached to an event such as this is a travesty.

devin is owed collectively thousands upon thousands of dollars by all of us who now know to save our money and time. go for a walk. adopt a puppy. have a drink. but by all that is holy do not waste your time on this event. the xp gain alone is not worth it even if we were to ignore the outrageous gold requirements to finish.

a small and cynical part of me wonders if gree is trying to hitch a ride on devins broad shoulders, hoping that the overwhelming good will attached to his name will make us sympathetic to the event.

a thousand times thank you devin. you took a bullet for all of us.

Couldn't agree more...

To think that 2 LTQs ago, I got the shockwave blaster (5000/4200) for spending 600 gold...
Yet here... probably 180 energy refills to finish this for 4147/3210.

So it's 2 vaults to finish this one! It's ridiculously insane.
In fact, I think Gree will collect less in this LTQ than the others, because they made it too hard and people are not willing to spend the time doing it!

Having said that, they are making the gold spend vs reward more even between WD wars and LTQ as LTQ was much better before.

The end of prestige looks like a major rip off. After getting the prize for level 25/29 if would take 68,564 energy to get the last two units and finish.

That equals 1,380 gold to get the last two units. Better deal to buy four of the new LE sets.

Thank you Devin for all the work that you have put into all those walkthroughs. Normally I would just read your walkthroughs and not post anything since you were already receiving lots of thanks and appreciation. My whole faction mates always look forward to your walkthroughs because it is complete, concise, and well written. We were happy to see that you were being recognized by GREE when the event started and was actually looking forward to spending the $$$ needed to get the unit that was named after you.

As you proceeded to complete the walkthrough it was evident that GREE would require us to spend too much gold to get your unit. I was looking forward to your unit and want to thank you again for what you have done to ensure that most of us dont spend too much $$$$$$$ by your sacrifice in completing that walkthrough.

A praise to Devin from GREE in the beginning, became an insult to Devin in the end and that was my main motivation to register so I can actually post my opinion in support of Devin. If you dont post another walkthrough again, a lot of people will understand. Everyone has their own choice to maks regarding continuing this event, I chose to play along and spend 0$ in this event.

Thanks again Devin for now, and all the other walkthroughs that I never said thank you in a post.

.....Would have really wanted to have your unit though...... as appreciation to you I would have spent the additional $$$ but in your own words W T ****

It seams many don't like this event and the rewards it brings.

If you are a top player this event might be a lot better than many of the previous. Remember if you already are at level 250, leveling is no issue either.

The normal mode might give you 4 units with considerably better stats than your the last unit you bring to battle. While prestige will give you 8 units units with good stats, above the TR (283 attack). All at a price a lot lower than the box event units, for top 50.

With prepping and some patience you would get 12 units with raw stats in excess of 16k, if the TR is your last unit you will increase your raw stats by for about 3k of gold.

The math:
Normal mode:
414+711+1,029+1,993 = 4,147
Prestige mode:
4,147+2,102+2,040+1,550+1,070+697+432+324 = 12,362
Total:
16,509
Then your last units 12 TRs has to be subtracted, as they could be the replaced units.
12*283 = 3,396

Raw gains:
13,113

Gaining more than 4 stat point per gold bar spent.
The new LE sets would only give you approx 4/3 per gold bar spent.
This event is then more than 3 times better than buying the LE sets for some players out there.

Numbers never lie, all in all a good event for the strong ones, but not for the masses. One will have to pick ones battles.

After all this game is not just about spending :)

Tactical Officer Devin (infantry, 4147/3210) (no boosts)


I think I can safely sum up the sentiment here with 'WTF?!'


PRESTIGE MODE COMPLETE - LTQ EVENT COMPLETE


TOTALS FOR PRESTIGE MODE
Raw gains (a/d): 13,258/12,236
Bonus gains: n/a
Valor gain: 4,650
Gold spent: 3,260
Enery Used: 169,725
XP gained: 49,780

TOTALS FOR ENTIRE EVENT (both NORMAL and PRESTIGE MODE):
Raw gains (a/d): 18,385/16,410
Bonus gains: n/a
Valor gain: 7,000
Gold spent: 4,020
Enery Used: 248,128
XP gained: 63,159


Analysis to come tomorrow ... but vs Extreme Measures, this is:
- 3/4 the raw stats
- 1/8 the amount of valor
- no boosts/bonuses
- 2.5 times the energy requirement
- 2.5 times the gold
- 2.x times more xp gained
Approximately, it's 3.3 times worse than prior.

...and back to my original statement: WTF?!?!


I thought like many, again stupidly that GREE had seen the light and started to work with their key players, being creative and coming up with new ideas.

My team wanted an elite force of Devin's to join our fleet of Xians, our domian's and plaaf's, but a quarter of a million energy - someone must be losing the plot over there, as its a special add 10% and most will buy gold to complete and everyones happy, through a bonus in to cover the last ltq.

I am truly sorry that you have been treated like this buddy, I have instructed my whole team of 34 members to stop this ltq, it really is one thing after another, its constant disappointment.

Again thanks for your intel which allows us to make these choices, great work as normal.

As much as I don't care for the lowered units, lack of a boost and increase in price; it seems they have realized that they were making battles extinct by having event rewards that dwarfed battle rewards (top 3 excluded). I would say that the field has been leveled now for events and battles, at least this go around.

Still proud to have "Officer Devin" in my ranks !!!!

@ALL - my first step in forum here
- do you know how to upload pics ?
Did a Visual Analysis of Devins stats,
So it's easy to find optimal point and where to stop.
@Devin you were right with previous Thief Quest..
Stopping at 31hero was optimum.

So can anyone explain to me what prestaging means?

It means the days before the event starts, to go through all the maps and complete all the multi hit targets to the point of having only one hit left. That way when the event begins all you have to do is hit each target once. A lot less energy needed during an event which has previously allowed player to go farther without gold. This event is the exception because prestaging had very little effect due to the increased number of targets.

Also, it only helps during normal mode. Once you hit prestige mode, you have to do all of them again and obviously you have already hit those targets and they are back to zero.

To be honest, I think this game would be significantly better without massive percentage bonuses handed out all the time or even at all but I could see a few grand prizes having 1% to 5% of some stat. When you deal with these huge bonuses it just makes the inflation worse. It seems like they are realizing that they can't just throw out a ton of easy to get bonuses now; but it's too late for that and they are going about it all wrong. Gree really doesn't seem to think about anything they do ahead of time.

The simple fact that they make events that can ONLY be finished by people spending a large amount of money is ridiculous. I am extremely surprised so many people still play their games. These games are not entertaining enough to be worth all the hassle. The customer support is bull****, the servers are terrible, the events are crappy, there is very little chance of moving up in the ranks without dumping copious amounts of real money, they can't even respond to their relatively inactive forums, don't even follow their own schedules, and yet so many people just sit through all of it and keep giving them money.

I've been thinking about quitting for a little while now; when I saw the LTQ prize named after Devin and blue posts about how they are trying to be more involved I thought I would stick around but this is ridiculous. This event is a complete waste of time and is completely disrespectful. Probably ruined Devin's vacation too. Well I am definitely quitting this game and hope some more of you will too.

I am honored the final unit is named after me - thank you to GREE... correction: GREE, if you're going to make an event more than 3 times worse than prior, please don't defame my good name to do it. I can only hope you forgot to attach a boost to a unit, perhaps upgrade 2 buildings at once or something, otherwise 4000 gold worth of energy is a poor buy, and nobody should do this.



Devin: You should have recieved the unit for free since it was named after you. Thank you Gree for forcing more players to play the game for free

During the whole event, here calculated with

Once you have completed all missions in "normal" mode, you'll get a new set of missions. It will say "Enemy Unknown Prestige (1/29)" or something to that effect.

Devin, First I'd like to say thank you for the awesome work you're doing for all of us!!

I cannot agree with you more about how bad Gree made this LTQ. It is just outragousely lame.
I was stupid enough to think that after the last LTQ messup with the non working duplicated bonus units, gree would make it up for everyone and make a better event. I was SO wrong! For this bizzare Thought of mine, right at the beggining of this LTQ I wasted 500 gold thinking that would get me some great units..... That was prior to checking your post. If I had checked it I wouldn't event go into this event at first place, let alone spending any gold on it. I am sure many others share this opinion.

Gree must compensate us all for this horrible event and especially you, however I've lost my faith in Gree so I can't imagine they would do anything.

I think I know why Gree decided to name the unit after you... because you're probably the only one who's gonna finish prestige mode.

After seeing how much Gold is needed to complete this I won't bother. This is ridiculous making the LTQ impossible to complete without massive amounts of gold. Whoever made this decision made a HUGE mistake. I will go as far as I can without spending 1 ingot. I am glad I played some of the ones before because now I could care less about this and I am sure I speak for the majority of the players. Not only did they kill the goose that laid the golden egg they annihilated it. In a way I am glad they did so now I won't waste so much time on this game and certainly not 1 cent of money.

I would need 1352 gold to finish this based on me using, on time, all of my energy earned during the next 108 hours of this event... I think my gold spending days are at an end. I unfortunately was running neck & neck with Devin during the standard mode and part of the prestige... Should have waited on his analysis before dropping a bar on this. GREE has spawned the birth if another free player.

This has become just another way for Gree to bump profits while allowing hackers with 99% regen get ahead of those honest players who spent massive amounts of gold to get the final unit. Cheers to devin for keeping us informed of the total greed of this company. There has to come a time when the customer is right and the company complies fully with the requests of their customers to rid the game of obvious hackers and do their due diligence to make sure that this rampant problem is brought under control. WTF Gree. When will you finally do the work we expect from you? I am in Canada where we are not lawsuit crazy but in this case a nice lawsuit might be the only way Funzio will actually listen. if you are dissatisfied with the company, contact your credit card companies and dispute the charges that this company has collected. Money talks with these guys and I personally am very tired of the lip service they spout on a regular basis. My advice to Gree.....DON'T SPEW IT, JUST DO IT.
