It reminds me of some games I used to play on pc and consoles, RPGs start off as a wimp build up your weapons so there is a sense of achievement, increase levels and stats etc, this all takes time.
I can only see the gold spending as akin to finding a cheat that means you can go around and kill all the nasties with one hit, for me personally that would make it kind of boring, what's the challenge?
I personally choose not to spend real money on this game, but im not gonna criticise people who spend their own money on it, my personal preference is the time, strategy etc involved in developing your character, I would be very quickly bored if I got to the top with spending gold, but that's just me, we're all different
I don't know how anyone could describe battling in CC as a challenge. As if it's a "challenge" trading robs/attacks back and forth with a player with similar stats. No, the "challenge" is in raising your stats up enough to be stronger than everyone else. Gold is just a shortcut to doing that.It reminds me of some games I used to play on pc and consoles, RPGs start off as a wimp build up your weapons so there is a sense of achievement, increase levels and stats etc, this all takes time.

I still like pixels.
CC has always been a game of "who is willing to spend money (gold)". Their is no real challenge or strategy.
Need better atk/def... buy gold and buy the premier items to better your stats
Need better IPH... buy gold to get the best buildings and upgrade faster
Need more IP... buy gold and continue to pound the targets you can beat
Want to be Top 25-50... join a syndicate and show them you are willing to spend gold
Need more anything... buy gold
If Fight Club actually did something other than recruit members willing to spend a ton of real money to buy gold I would actually applaud their efforts. If they had a magic formula that allowed them to milk every IP out of each target that didn't involve simply buying gold at a ridiculous rate I would think they were doing something nobody else had thought of.
I'd love to see a breakdown of how much each Syndicate spent on gold related to what position they placed in the event. I'd imagine it would be very similar.
At the end of the day their is no strategy that doesn't involve gold. You cannot obtain the best items and high stats without buying and spending gold. Fight Club would never let a member in if they didn't buy gold. Any mention of "strategy" is comical. Any mention of "a challenge" is laughable. Facing a challenge... buy gold and it solves the problem.
Bluemoe
yada yada yada ... blah blah blah (in a theatrical voice)
This is so true. Truth hurts some folks. Spend real money, thats cool, but don't pretend like you have skills or strategy. It's like people in marathons that they have been catching taking taxis or other means of transportation. Yes you did finish, but you accomplished nothing.
Fight Club is awesome!
The Village People play second fiddle again.
of course, money grows on trees. who needs skills and brains to earn it
and oh yeahhh, i can see truth hurts .. a lot
Oh dear. Does that mean we need to get rid of our non gold players???
Durn it, that's a disappointment
Sad you can't see how silly that is. We are talking about the game. You connect it to real life. No separation for you. It's ok, it's a pity, but it's obvious you can't help it. You do what you have to do to fill the obvious void in your life. Can't fault you for that. I only hope this game makes your life better. Good luck and keep your head up, life will get better, but you have to live it. Real life, not pixels. When you are ready of course.

and what void are "you" filling by playing crimecity? you are playing this game and that's why you joined these forums too. the only difference is that some people spend real money, time, brain, energy earning pixels and you don't spend money but you do spend "more" time, brain and energy to earn the same pixels. so what different are you? keep hating and keep expecting the sun will shine for you some fine day, so you could also freely spend money on something that entertains you, chummy
The better question is what void is that Grim Reaper filling by acting superior to others on the internet, trying to troll others about the size of their disposable income.
everybody is filling some void in order to keep themselves happy out of their busy lives. the question is, what floats your boat? to me, if anything entertains me, i'll go any far to achieve that happiness and joy. critics don't bother me much but their hypocrisy is intolerable. when they themselves do things that are childish or inappropriate and tell others they shouldn't ... just makes me go whaaaaa daaaa faaaark
