How does the stockpile advisor decide that you should upgrade attack with humvees or upgrade defense with bearcats? I've had it tell me to do both.

 
Nozama User

you have to make the decision, are you looking for more defense or more offense.

 
holymoly User

I mean that when you go to the stockpile, the script does some math and tells you what the best cost per point upgrade is.

Usually, the better offense is also equal or better defense, but in the case of vehicles, humvees are better on offense but worse for defense. The script has to choose whether to recommend an offense upgrade or a defense upgrade. In the past, it always recommended that I change my bearcats to humvees for better offense but today it recommended that I change my humvees to bearcats for better defense.

never rely on that junk i only look at my attack/ defense numbers, i never buy what it tells me to buy, thats waste of time and money

 
fart man User

for example it says that my airplanes are not used, but they are, and it says my yacht wasnt beinmg used but it was. its never correct except for when it tells you the unused items, thats helpful

 
fart man User

sometimes it tells me to buy crowbars lol

 
Chrisos User

Your airplanes are not being used nor is your yacht, these are the items that are being used in battle, not in the game generally.

patk: I have both humvees and bearcats for every one of my mob, as there is an advantage to using the humvees when attacking, and bearcats when defending.

When I was using the suggestions, I used the best overall suggestion, rather than the best attack or defense suggestion, as I was playing with balanced stats, I guess the players playing an attack game would use the atack suggestion, and vice versa.

FYI Chrisos, you automatically uses the most expensive item (in this case the Humvees rather than Bearcats) in both Attacking and Defending.

 
Chrisos User

Where did you get that information from?

 
Linc User

Live testing :))

 
Chrisos User

Ah... with you, you're talking about the best buy algorythm, not the fighting in the game right? Crossed wires. :)

 
Linc User

Nono I do mean fighting in game :S You could ask one of your friend to test it out with ya :D Find out if when he attacks you, you'll defend using bears or hums =)

 
Chrisos User

I wonder what the point of having attack and defend stats is, if the cost is the critical selection factor!

 
CryptoNight User

It is true ... the game does not determine "best" based upon individual attack/defense stats. If you have both Humvees and Bearcats for each of your mob, you are not using the Bearcats at all.

 
Linc User

I guess the devs doesn't like you of having the best of both world ;)

 
Chrisos User

Sounds about right...

It seems to me like the developer is deliberately running this game into the ground. No new development is taking place, or it is and there are no announcements.

I know he is being sued by his ex-employer, who claim he stole the idea from them or developed it while they were paying him to do something else, or something like that anyway. Maybe he is making the game worthless to they have nothing to take from him...

 
Chrisos User

Right I guess I'm going to sell all of my bearcats then... :)

 
Computer Killer User

Instead of selling all your bearcats, split the difference. I have a mob size of 1022 plus me. I have 511 bearcats, and 511 humvees, and 1 crown vic. The stats for attack and defense look great, its like having the best of both worlds. My upkeep isn't going through the roof, and I am winning about 70 to 75 percent of all my encounters.

 
fart man User

chrisos my yacht is being used maybe not for fighting but certainly for jobs. no argument there buddy. i think the script should be changed so that it does not say that those items are not being used when they are.

 
fart man User

chrisos the point of having defense/attack stats is to let you know if you are better at attacking or defense. what r u talkin about?

 
fart man User

if you have 500 people, and have 500 hum v, and have 500 bearcat, when you fight or get attacked it will only use the bearcats. sucks that it wont use the bearcats when u get attacked, and use the humv's when you are attacking.

 
fart man User

whoops it will only use the humv's**************
