Kordanor Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Hey there, I just realized that you get the full money back on decomissioning an aircraft, which is a big balancing issue with the first interceptors which you can just buy for 100k, and a the end of the month, you just sell most of them again to avoid paying the upkeep. Then after you got the results of the month, you just order them again. So there is absolutely no reason against filling your bases up with hangars, which just keep 6250$ upkeep and filling them with Interecptors. While this wont work in the later game due to the weakness of the early fighters it will give a significant push in the first couple of months. Where you can basically clear all the sky and gain additional income without big costs. Or you could say that for 90% uptime during a month you pay only 6% of the cost instead of paying 100% for 100% uptime.

Kordanor Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yep, that would be a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 You're correct, thanks. I'll reduce their sell price to 0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradford Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 It looks like you inadvertently reduced their purchase price to 0 as well in the latest update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legit1337 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Jets on the house, boys! I want 500 jets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solver Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Yeah, they can also be bought for 0 now. Which makes it far easier to immediately get extra air coverage on a 2nd base! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinHann Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 This sounds a little too easy maybe? Could get three bases up and running in no time without much ground combat effort this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Seems they use the same value for buy and sell. I'll get Giovanni to take a look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kordanor Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 If you do that in general, it would be necessary to get a lot more funding though. As replacing aircrafts in the past was quite cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Maybe their upkeep price could be added to the tally at the start of month rather than end so you pay the upkeep even if you decommission them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
