I always count my last reward value in resources and multiply that by 12% to get the new amount of resources for a new reward.

 

 

Besides multiplying the reward value with 12% and pushing that much resources in the infest bank for next reward, how many sites are needed to break before breaking the final one to get the reward?

I am still waiting for the reply :/

I don't kill them, i try to bank with making multiple infest to 1 line

and then kill one

So last night after killing ALL of my offense infest I waited until server reset for new one which appeared BUT they arent respawning after killing them.  Winters you are a bold faced liar if you tell me nothing has been changed.  I now have 85+ million in resources stuck that I cant get back because of your shitty infest system.

Eish, that just sucks. Hope you squeeze something outta there soon!

Guys, how can I get Level 100 infest to pay.

First two time i hit it - it paid well.

Now I have hit it another 3 times with no pay out.

Bit unsure as what to do now to get bank to pay out.

You probably don't have enough resources banked...

It takes 111,777,000, according to the Wikipedia.

Even if you use only Exterminators, you still use 5,527,434.1 power, minimum.

The average level 100 takes a little over 3M power.

Found a more accurate method for determining bank value than the wiki.  value = 65.5*(level)^3.143 

So value for a level 100 is 126 mil.  And you want to load about 90% of the bank value when going for a payout (if you load the full value then there's no space to make a profit).

if the infest system hasn't changed then how much total resources will I need for a lvl 54?

Guys I am kind of confused with the whole thing... I am a noobie, and i just go kill the infestation and at times i get troops at times i do not, I am lvl 39 now so think way off the topic here.. but still would like to learn how and why do u do this loading thing .. 

Please need some advice as I do like the game and want to grow and do stuff like u all are .. have patience for a noobie .. :D

thanx a ton for who ever answers

I'll assume you've read the first post, by Maniakaal...

If not, go read it first... It should help.

In the case that you have, but don't understand it;

1. You need to lose troops in order to get troops.
2. More expensive troops help you get more troops.
3. Troop cost can be added by adding its Uranium, Titanium, and Credit costs together.
4. Troops lost add its cost to the bank, which totals all resources.
5. If the bank reaches an applicable number when beating an Infestation, you may get a reward.
6. The reward (In resources) is subtracted from the bank.

Note: With a possible change, this post may become useless, along with all the posts in this thread.

lol no shit sherlock

18.2 mil. 

cool ty bio.  now lol about a 12% per hike in resources for every lvl after that?

question 

 1:lets say my last won was 1mil so my bank now is zero but i need to fill it back to get next payout .. how much is that ? i mean like is it 1mil x12% or 1milx3% ?

because here i saw some folks said 12% but in my clan friends advised me 3%

2: if i won next payout 2mil ... is that mean i need to fill it with 2mil x?% + (my previous payout 1milx?% ) or i just need to count current payout which is 2mil x?%

It's not a recursive function, the % change decreases as you go up levels.  The difference in bank value between a level 10 and 11 is about 35%, while the difference between a level 98 and a level 99 is about 3%. 

Here's a chart I made (it's for stormfall but the numbers work here too). 

http://mattsstuff.net/bgloading.html

Keep in mind that you want to load about 85-90% of the max banking value in order to have the best chance of getting a profitable payout. 

Question. How would I know If I will get a payout?  I did like 4 infest no payouts. Since this update came out is anyone getting good payout's? In this infest bank you guys are talking about what is it?

You have to keep track of the resource value of troops you've lost since your last payout, that's your bank. I got a good payout 4 days ago, they haven't been good recently. 

Are elite and A forces the same in any way?

Yep, they have same resource value (although A mutants are more powerful and harder to get, so you're better off not trading them for regular troops in infests). 

@BiohazarD (31 May, 2015, 9:51 AM UTC):
Could it be that A-mutants include their Antigen cost as their only resource increase?

It would make sense... At most 200, for air it doesn't make a huge difference.

My infests have been acting so weird. I am on level 47 infests but I used to be able to force payouts at will. Now,

1. Even with my bank 1-2% past the threshold for the particular level, I don't get paybacks like the old days. I had my bank at over 4 million and I one-shotted a level 36 infest, which is right for the bank. However, I got no payout but a bank at like 5 million, so when I took out a level 33, I got a decent payout but a whole lotta resources. Sometimes this happens across multiple infests so I end up with a bank several million greater than the infest I am targeting.
2. Once I had my bank at like 7.1 million so I was going to kill a level 42 defensive infest. I sent 2 exterminators to a level 45 offensive infestation to load before the kill (they were supposed to die). However, I triggered a payout on the level 45 of like 370 BCs and a few interceptors. My bank was on negative 3 million.

Number 2: I checked with Biohazard and he said that the bank resets to zero if it goes overly negative, around the time of the daily server reset. Does anyone know how long the bank takes to reset, if at all?
