Cash/resources/gold ratios

[Kong]

I am not sure if this is anywhere on here but think it may be very useful for players.

My question is what is cash /resource /gold ratios

like if i want to upgrade at the training camp what is 1 million in cash to gold

same with resources what is 1 million in wood in gold
1 million in stone
1 million in iron

 

[Kong]

I guess time also ...like I see for my training camp something will take 2d 15h and it will cost 506 gold so what is it per hour?

 

[Kong]

looks like 17 gold per hour

 

[Kong]

but if I use that math for the training camp 17 X 2d 15 hours it comes out to 1054 so what is the deal?

 

[Kong]

looks like 17 gold per hour

the math makes no sense. I based the 17 gold per hour off of a stone storage that has an hour left and it says 17 to complete. then I have my bunker with 1d 7 hours and it costs 312 to complete.

can someone make this make sense?

Kong, don't get what you are asking.. are you asking about the rss to gold ratio to justify if should spend gold to finish upgrades?

I don't understand narcos formula for gold ratio

Gold to complete building to speed it up.

Cash needed to start training camp because not enough cash.

Gold to finish training camp

What is 1 million wood worth in gold? What is 1 million stone worth in gold? What is 1 million of iron worth in gold?

Is there a formula ?

Had looked in this previously, and there is no clear answer as it varies from wood/stone/iron and also differs for time to completion (longer completion tasks has lower gold requirement by per rss).
The conclusion of a lot of members here (incl me) is... it is more economical in most cases to invest gold in a shield (clearing NPCs/gather rss generators) than to use gold outright to finish an upgrade. And it of course depends on how much gold it takes to complete upg with gold vs shield etc. In a lot of cases, shield is more economical as you climb the ladder.

It seems to me that Narcos is making this very random and charging whatever gold they want with no recourse. I think we should demand some ratio or math formula that people can make sure we all are not getting ripped off. This game starts costing alot of real world money in the higher rankings.

All the math I have tried has no logic

If you guys are with me keep this posting high so whoever needs to see this sees it so they make changes. And publicly tell us how they are formulating these things.

As you are new, FYI, Chase is the official FTX rep here. Good luck, I would say this is one of the lower priorities of existing issues here...

Thanks for that information

Its very high priority to me as I spend a ton of real world money on this game. I would like to know these answers as I might quit the game if I don't.
Real world money over a grand so keep me here or lose me. Its up to you Chase.

if you ever made database with relations (stone-gold, iron-gold...) there is no problem to generate formula from these information. I played with that months ago but it was so boring. I quit after 2-3 days. The fastest way to make nice and large enough database is to put online boards where everyone can input their ratio (for example: 1000iron-70gold, next one: 850iron-65gold...) and after maybe a week (if we were accurate) we can get excellent formula for any ratio.
Larger database = better formula

Come on man! There are people in here who have spent several thousand dollars ( I dare say $10k+) on this game and can't get answers to much more pressing issues. So please don't come in here throwing that around like your money is more important than anyone else's money. If you've truly spent that much money on this game, then you are much more committed to this game and I seriously doubt you'd quit playing over such a simple request. Now quitting over some of the gameplay issues and bugs in this game? That I would understand...

@Chase - FTX Games is really good. He answers everything he can and lets us know when he can't. Just give him some time if someone else can't answer it for you.

Really!!!!! money talks and if people who spend money say they spend money and FTX see's they might lose a paying customer or multiple customers they might respond. Whether you think it is important does not matter to me. I think it is important to understand how I am spending real world money on this game. If FTX doesn't care about me then I am gone.

I would think the person spending 10k should have some pull in getting their issues dealt with or atleast responded to that makes them stay and spend more money.
