ATA should be commended; their formula is simple and brilliant. I wish they would go public so I could buy shares. Some players will always need to be at the top of the game no matter what and they will spend a lot of $ to do so. In order stimulate continued sales and interest, ATA needs to continue to release new levels. Just as Apple needs to release new IPhone models or they wouldn't stay in business. Those same top players/spenders will spend what it takes upgrade immediately those levels are released. Same is true when a new model iPhone 6 is released. Some people have to get it immediately. When the big spenders have spent a ton to upgrade, ATA then lowers the cost for the new and upcoming players, allowing them to buy and achieve their next level. Same as the old iPhone 5 gets demoted to the 2nd tier cost. Others will pay to upgrade their phone from the lower IPhone 4, content with almost being at the top but not prepared to spend the massive amounts needed to do so. The same principle goes right the way down the ranks. With a place for everyone depending on how much they are willing to spend, even making it possible to play without spending anything. As long as players continue to upgrade they will be happy. There will always be a next level just as there will always be a new model IPhone. There will always be those that need to have the newest and the best and there will always be a lot of money to be made because of them. On behalf of ATA, thanks to all you VIPs out there that just have to be at the top. You are the difference between making a ATA a living and making ATA RICH!
@pimd I think the 50% more cash idea would have made more sense if it was done on the last week of the promo
Will never spend money on this game... @pimd it must suck because a majority of your big spenders are leaving the game?!
