I've been wondering, why do prices get over 10x more expensive, when you switch to buy 10 at a time. I always just rapid click, to save money. I should be able to buy 10 at a time, without paying extra money!
They don't get more expensive! However - not all of the investments prices compound at the same rate. When you're clicked into x10 or x100, you're seeing the price being incremented differently for each investment. :)
LOTS more in store. In fact, since AdCap has received such insane support, we're in the clear to spend more time and resources improving it. So thanks for your continued support!

I can remember when I first started playing, I was so proud of myself when I got the bonus for 100 of everything (Oil Companies amiright), not to mention when i got my first few AIs. Never did the thought cross my mind that I could sacrifice 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 AIs without it even affecting me just for one purchase.
The game has pre-designed "dry patches" that take time to break through. Once you do though, you'll find that earning quadrillions of Angels suddenly becomes very rapid and fun again. So hang in there! I don't want players to feel they HAVE to buy anything - just if they want to.

fredowski: That's a great idea, starting a business is a risk. Me being a business major, I would love to see options to customize financial statements, accounting ledgers, selling of stock, dividends, production, R&D, marketing, H&R, etc. That would be so much fun hehe.

THANK YOU! For the x100 button. Every time I reset I was always worried my coworkers would realize I couldn't possibly be doing something work related when I was clicking away like a maniac.

I think we should have a chance to ruin ourselves. Perhaps let us borrow cash, accumulate debt, have sneaky lenders/credit bureaus, adjustable credit ratings. Let us borrow or sell businesses at a profit/loss to shore up cash and buy other things. Etc. Just thoughts.

Hello! I noticed that some of the names of the larger numbers are different than the names in the merriam-webster dictionary. What you call "quinquadecillion" they list as just quindecillion; what you call "sedecillion" they list as sexdecillion; and what you call "novendecillion" they list as novemdecillion. In the game the highest I've seen so far is vigintillion and that's about as high as they list. Here's my source: http://www.merriam-webster.com/table/dict/number.htm
Yes, we actually have some conflicting names with other sources as well. We grabbed those names off Wikipedia (I discovered), but we should have double checked other sources. We'll probably change them in the upcoming UI update, but that's still a ways off.

Hev devs, the media rebirth multiplier of 111x, while big, is still nothing in the long run. It'll only be at 1.2 quattuordec... when even shrimp is already over 7 quin per second. Unless there is more intended to fix this in the future it still leaves newspapers as virtually useless in their own right, maybe x10,000 would make them relevant? Im not trying to complain so much as recommend improvements. As always you guys rock and thanks for the great game!
Very good point! The x111 was meant as a surprise - something to make 1000 Newspapers special. But you're right, it doesn't put them on top, it just makes them helpful again. Maybe we'll look into an upgrade or achievement that makes them even better.

SUGGESTION: After you buy all new managers, you get the total Cash per Second below the current cash at the top.
Also, please add mouse scroll support.
Great game, with so many idle game poping out, yours manage to stay fresh and interesting after the first playtrought.
Thanks for the suggestion, and the support! We're pretty ecstatic over the support we're getting for the game, so we're committed to making it bigger and better. We couldn't do it without you guys (which is, like, extremely cliche to say, but I mean it with naive earnestness!)

Could a "function" be added, like, to scroll the upgrades with the scrolling wheel of the mouse? I think it would be a lot easier, or is just me that can't do it?

day 3. running low on food and water. have lost all sense of time, except for knowing that the oil rig bar is about 5 seconds. I probably have enough money to buy the solar system if only there was an option. This journal entry will be brief as i have to buy an upgrade now. i do hope to make it back to reality soon, if not i leave all my possessions, savings and progress in this game to my son. if i die, i do hope to become an angel investor.

@Henio99 (Aug-01): This information is already displayed under each item. When the speed becomes so fast that it is under 3 seconds it just says 'almost ready'. Anything over gives you the seconds left.
@cercul (Aug-01): This has been brough up many times by many people. That is how the game works, and it's intended. Later on things start swinging back, and mixing up a bit. Bear with it, you'll see.

Should have another tier of 'reset' so you can go back to the start of the game with no AI's but a new form - Deific Backers?

Great Game! Great responses from the developers! What more can I ask for especially since i have not had to pay a cent for it. Thanks for updating continuously. Thanks for putting so much effort into it! Cant wait to see what you guys will do next!
Keep Working in game development, You guys will make it big!!

As for the people complaining about the game. Why dont you demand your money back! Or Learn programming for a decade or so then make your own game!
Thanks for your kind words koolkrikes! We have big dreams for AdCap now - and it's because of the Kongregate community that we can actually strive for them. We'll do our best to keep the game fresh and interesting for as long as we have loyal Capitalists!

I have hit a wall, i have 5 quntillion AI and it seems like I just keep resetting with no chance to getting close to 900 newspapers. What am I doing wrong? I buy all my upgrades at the beginning, should I be saving the angel newspaper stands for later?
No no, you're doing great! at 5 quintillion AI, you should be in range of the 900 newspaper achievement. Are you purchasing ALL the AI upgrades you can afford? Even the extremely expensive ones can be worth it (like the Lemonus Surpemus) because lemonade stands are worth so much in the End Game. You are right at the last "dry spot" before you break easily into the 900s. Keep going!

Could you possibly add an AI earned counter next to the money earned counter. It seems like a safer place to view it then on the reset button. I have pushed reset by mistake and it has cost me some AI, not a huge deal, but it would be nice to make it easier not to make that mistake again. Thanks!!!
Oh man, the Angel UI is one of the biggest things that needs overhauled. It needs its own button (it's sort of buried right now) and we want to add more stuff that affects angels. So the answer is - yes! It'll take us a bit though, so hang in there.

i'm not sure if it's supposed to do this or not, but i had 200 of everything and oil was the cheapest and lemonade was the most expensive.

Hey, dev. For how long do you expect to improve game with new updates? I am not playing now andd just watching for updates, so I want to play a game from hard reset, when it'll be done.
Oh! Umm... We're going to keep adding, possibly weekly, for the foreseeable future (next 3-4 months?). We have some much larger features we want to implement, we're working on a mobile version, and we want to keep up with how passionate the Kong community is, so probably until we add something that makes everyone mad and they rage quit. We'll probably add a "win" button for people that would like resolution in their game experience someday.

Once reached 300, the cost of the stores are mirrored ...is is normal ? The newspaper cost more to upgrade that the oil company
It is indeed! And don't take the downvotes too seriously - this is a oft repeated question for our veteran Capitalists. It used to be asked once every 2.4 seconds!

Could you add a manager that enables you to see the Cash/Sec per $ of new investments, enabling you to see which investments are most cost effective?

I'd say that the description is false by now. This is no longer the third greatest capitalism game, but should at least be second by now!

4.808 Sextillion angels with 6.5 Sextillion due on reset after only 20 minutes after a reset.... Every upgrade purchased and still not even close to the max achievements...

Can we have a "total cash per second" upgrade so that we can easily see how much each business is contributing to our overall profit instead of having to manually add up the numbers. I'm so rich that I'm lazy
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@strutte that's because you keep your current angels, the number in the reset is what it's adding to your total. Once you spend them they are gone.

Being able to SELL businesses (for a reduced rate of course) would open a whole new avenue to explore! How about selling a few Angels while we are at it? I am also all for the good side (Angels), but like balance too - how about the option to invest in little devils also - giving different kinds of bonuses..... Great game - it keeps me coming back for more - 650 quadrillion angels and counting!

The upgrade list is starting to become truly unmanageable, could you please reorganize it? EG: each upgrade-type has one main-box with a mark-box for each possible purchase.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The upgrade list should automatically scroll down 1 piece when you buy an upgrade. That way you can click through the whole lot , pretty please ?
Thumbs up if you don't want to scroll the huge list with the tiny slider.

Who gave to me the lemonade stand in the first place? Won't she like to have a share of my success? It's like standing on the shoulder of giants.

If both computers have access to the internet you can upload it to pastebin.Then you just need the url for it.

I just want to thank you guys for the game and updates! I normally play other games but is not usual for me to see the developer answering questions and implementing suggestions like you guys do. :) So, thank you. :D
