Improve Gambling odds: more rewards = more cash
Bers,
I find that on average... to take a level 1 art to level 13 requires at least 15000E. So to do this for 3 items is 45000E. This is too high.
I will ask again...
***PLEASE*** if your goal is to get people to spend more then increase the _frequency_ (how many times they get rewards associated with cash) in how cashers are rewarded.
TO THE POINT:
Increase the probability/chances of an art being improved. Maybe... as the art gets higher in level, it is easier to increase (example: 1 in 6 tries it will improve, out of 1 in 3).
I spend at least $200US a month.. .and that is a LOW MONTH. I'd like to continue this game if you at least do something about better odds with gambling.

Gambling have been out there for almost a month and we've been tweaking it when it was introduced. At this moment I think it is pretty ballanced and we are not considering changes, sorry.

no need to apologize: i will take money and move on in Dec
thank you for the response.
i will use up the rest of my arts in inventory and move on no later than december. this means i will not be spending any money after the december time frame if nothing major happens.
HOWEVER, if you do increase those odds in gambling or do more to offer users greater play and rewards... you may see those usage numbers grow and your retention rate increase. the max usage i see is of 390 users at the same time. out of 100 players it is my guess that 20% are 18 or older and maybe out of 100 players only 10 spend cash a month.
i consider myself a serious gamer but i don't know of any game that requires more than $50 a month to play at a competitive level. as i said, i spend hundreds a month and would gladly stay in gunrox and spend more and more money... but that is if ther are changes.
as i increase in rank there appears to be fewer and fewer players. it's difficult to rapidly grow through the ranks and even harder (more expensive) to improve art weapons.

I appreciate you supporting this game with cash, but in order to keep balance we must keep gambling expensive to give non-cash players more chances to compete.

non-cash players better odds of winning
higher usage = greater access through low barriers
[meaning, more people will play if things are easy to attain and remain competitive]
example: i believe a reason why counterstrike is so popular and used in the millions is because of simplicity in game play (like gunrox) _BUT_ two other and probably more important reasons:
1. people all enter on same skill level
-- gunrox has wide gaps in skills: lvl 1-50
2. weapons and ammo are offered freely (well, depends on setting whether allotted cash is high, low, or none at all)
**improving** the availability of types of weapons and ammo, or the ability to upgrade items, would surely get more people to spend more frequently.
recommendations:
--- reduce amounts for reset
======================
-- more people may reset more frequently as they mature through the ranks
-- they will do it because 1) choose build that fits their style of play, and 2) they may want to try new builds, or simpy to 3) improve upon their curren build.
--- increase chances of higher art (at least to level 6)
========================================
-- there are always going to be more people without money (or less of it) than people with lots of money
-- the idea here is to get them to spend _KNOWING_ they have a great chance of upgrading their art to at least level 6.
-- if i had little money and i know it may not return good in gamble, i would save it for ammo, armor, or other little things.
-- but if i know that 3-5 spins almost guarantee to upgrade low level art, i would take the chance of using hard earned coins or actual cash
just my thoughts.

Like I said we don't have plans for decreasing gambling costs. If we will, we will notify you via news section.
