Jamaica Cycle LTB - Upgrade Costs & Output

[ElMacho]

Please see below the walk through costs for upgrading and payouts.

Pretty decent building this time with any output bonuses at all should have a decent pay out. I also like the 12 hour cycle over 18 hour etc.

Finishing this gets you +1 Building upgrade!!!!!!!!!
Ground Unit - A:414,721 D: 254,183 (+1 Building Upgrade!!)



Costs below "should" be base costs with no building output bonuses.

Level	Cost	Output
1	100,000,000	750,000
2	167,000,000	1,500,000
3	280,000,000	2,625,000
4	467,600,000	4,125,000
5	780,891,667	6,000,000
6	1,304,090,000	8,250,000
7	2,177,830,000	10,875,000
8	3,636,975,000	13,875,000

10	12,147,498,333	22,500,000

Here's some great info from SSG I saw as well. It will really help you calculate your own info if you want to know your specifics.l

Here is all the information you will need for upgrade time, cost, units, xp

[VileDoom]

Awesome info! Tyvm

[Mahan]

Or Max al buildings +1 ? 11 instead of 10 ? Would be cool (stolen thought)

[Kossie]

Thnx for the info.

[Thumpr]

So....+1 building upgrade. Means two upgrades at once? Eek, hoshi desu!! Demo..$12 billion for level 10. I'd have to buy vaults of cash to get it...or...I could take the equivalent amount of cash and make a nice dent in my mortgage.

nice unit!

sadly EVERYONE that can get to 10 will have no use for it.. they most likely have +1 if not +2 and no building left to upgrade.

just next reward that fits right in line with a bunch of 1st place useless modifiers given out for a while. Like +1e, -5% health, yes gree us poor souls love them and can only keep on dreaming while the players that can go to 10 swear it's not a good defense modifier.

I have no dreams and will be happy to get to lvl6/7.. nice.

Agree. I will be able to upgrade my supply depot off cycle now. Gree needs to make this game more interesting by introducing trade offs. Right now it's about how much you spend. Since FL is the only event where you get one prize and not all the prizes up to your tier, introduce regen, energy, output, upgrades, etc., around the top 1000-4000 range. Naturally you don't make the slot available for 1000 teams, but for 5. Make top factions think about the trade off of getting another attack/defense unit versus these more desirable boosts. Of course, you miss out by a slot or few, you get stuck in a crappy prize range. Gives top teams something to think about, while giving lower teams all the incentive to go all out to fit in the tight space. If you don't make the game more interesting and bring in trade offs other than simple spending, the game will die of boredom. Now let me go and upgrade my command center that I had left at 3 all this time.

Calculations should have been fixed now

[IlliniFan1]

Not a very good output for the cost of upgrading the building.

[rushabhc]

the ones who can complete this building to lv10 they dont need any building upgrade.... that bonus is needed for small ppl....
once again i may say, GREE made a Sh*t

[Huj]

I'm surprised no one brought up the question of how the ****** is a rock a building? lol

The thing has to be the ugliest structure (this is not a building) In game.

[ckos2]

I can FINALLY have the +1 upgrade! I've been playing since the beginning, and have yet to own one.

There's many ways to play this game. Some people play for stats, others for IPH. Some people play every event, while others choose some, or even no events. And then there are those who can afford to play all and have all.

If you don't have it yet, be patient. Maybe one day you too will be rewarded for your playing style. I NEVER thought I would aquire this building.

There are many comments here that assume too much.

[Doc Rumpies]

Awesome, finally a great reward for taking a building to lvl10

[Spetsnaz]

Thanks for the info ElMacho.

[Rolinz]

@ElMacho: Thank you for putting out this info.

Why is it so hard for Gree to be making/posting these information in the forums instead of having to wait until one of our own players gathers the info somehow and post it for Gree. Is there a shortage of labor at Gree? Can't they afford to hire more employees to get the work done?

@IlliniFan1: I agree, very low output for the cost of the building and upgrades. But I suspect they did that because of the much desired boost reward for getting to level 10. After that, the building is not worth much for getting cash. The cost is very close to the same cost for the Zambezi LE Building, but with a much better output. I believe about 5 to 10 times more output, depending on your boosts.

@SSG: What calculations are trying to fix and who, Gree???
