Worst Patch in a long time

[Turbain]

Dravco..reading your comment on chasing the 3 kills to make First Class.. I have actually made a lot of friends with some big br players. Some of them after reaching max on honor will strip down and let u get your honor for kills you need for titles. Not all of them are unaware of the little guys ..
Always just ask , sometimes it works sometimes you will get laughed at . YET, it Never hurts to ask You might be surprised one may say yo little guy where are you met me here and get you some honor or kills in .

Toaster Lives Matter

Nah, I just got to find me some mood slime and Jackie Wilson, and it will get to dance once again.

The inn thing I have a problem with as well:

• Fourth, you have to make sure they are finished talking so you can get the rewards. There are times I would fast-click and then leave without it finishing, thus not getting the reward.

So with that, it will take me about 10-20 days (around such) before I can get a card upon leveling up if I slow down and made sure all finished talking.

When you press the gift button press on the guy you are talking to speed it up and you get the award instantnly

Really. I thought this patch was suppose to help players get better sylphs. Mine is just as weak as it always was. No improvement whatsoever. And I'm not spending my paycheck to make it better either. This patch stinks. Its a patch to help players who don't need any help.

One of my biggest irritations is that existing bugs/problems never going to be solved and that the main focus is to implement new features.

The Spirebug (you know, the one where all the bosses stay on the screen) is here for months and has it been fixed? No but for devotion you MUST do the friggin mpd each day. Like the developers just stick up their middlefinger and say "sc.rew you all, we do nothing for you".

And then there is the lag wich is getting worse with each patch. Some of it could be fixed by building a NASA-worthy PC but that is not the answer. Much of the lag is caused due to the location of the server. If i ping the server it takes 98 miliseconds and that isn't caused by my connection. So we are talking about 0.1 second of delay with each action we do (depending of your own location). You can see this lag when you are harvesting and feeding your animals in the farm.

These are problems we face every single day without any progress from the developers. But, we are "forced" to face them (spire, farm). But, is it ever going to be fixed? No, because the focus lies on spending more balens, cashing harder. Everytime new options to buy buffs in PvP-battles to gain ever more advantage over the free players. A wile ago i was thinking about stopping but there is another aspect of this game and that is the social part. After a long time of playing you make some friends.
So thanks to the issues i stopped spending money on the game (why spend money if the problems are not going to be fixed?) and stopped caring and put more time in the social aspect of the game.

R2, the ignorance of the developers costs money, if you want to make more money (like every buisiness does), fix the bloody problems.

Yes they don't fix the bugs because that cost them money. But really, if they did a good job of running this game, fixed bugs in a timely manner, listened to players better, then some people might be inclined to start spending again or spend more than what they are now.

The bugs is one reason I quit spending.

i only spend if theirs something worthwhile in the events but as it is they not getting a penny from balen events from me i will buy my vip and spirit con if its helpful still but that is useless cuz

1: warrior call is no good at knighthood mpds

2: world boss boss attack is useless as its 1 round and its dead in 2 mins

3: skill master kinda rubbish why refresh skill points wen u ave it set as u want in first place

4: monster radar kinda stinks now as maps are smaller and easier to find

maybe a change in spirit con features would be nice or ppl wont buy it

[Meikura001]

Diving into both Kabam and R2 Games servers, I can freely say:

1. I haven't seen the effects of Warrior Call because I probably got good enough to even notice.
2. Two Minutes? You lucky sod! Most I get is 30-45 seconds on either. Just good enough to give a peck on the cheek without any cuddling.
3. Agreed. One of the most things I had done when I start a unit is hold off on spending the skill points until I know exactly where I want them to go into. Most people just get all the skills. There aren't enough SPs for all of them, folks, so you will have to choose which ones you want to blow up mobs with.
4. Agreed again. Took me less than 15 minutes to "sweep" and kill all bosses; was working on titles, so when I get the titles, I will stop and only will help others instead. Also helps to get a certain "sweep" pattern going and paying attention to detail while doing it.

To this date, I have not spent one penny because, day in and day out, I would ask myself "why should I when there are problems that are not fixed?" Before Gamefly came out, I used to be a guy that bought a bad game because I thought it would be good in the first place; only to find out either: 1. it finishes fast without a replay value -or- 2. it wasn't what it was cracked up to be. This game is just like that. I liked it when it first came out because I can have gun toting badasses in the field, but got bored really quick as it didn't go anywhere (leveling or developing) without spending. I left for nearly a year to play another R2 game which I had some real life things to take care of that I also, kind of, quit that game.

My biggest pet peeve would have to be the technological performance problems experienced while playing the game. This is the lag throughout the game, the sprites that remain during MPD, Sky Trail, and Spire runs, and the overuse of flashy and bouncing elements to name a few. If it isn't one of those, it would be the connection and loading problems that happen to me (sometimes in a while) that I would post my benchmark tests when making a bug report.

Had these issues been taken care of, I might have spent on all my accounts and R2/Kabam would see it as one expensive operation considering the pricing guide that is out. Each day, I watch the forums to see if there are going to be fixes, and the only fix I have seen are those that are not "important" (like that last one about the 0 balens thing; I wasn't aware of such nor did I had a dialogue box popped up of such ON BOTH SIDES!!).

I play this game for two reasons: 1. to help out the other players with their issues as much as I can -and- 2. to have fun with friends I had made.

[cyc2u]

All the issues in the game, bugs, cash-only patches, etc can only be blamed on the cashers. As long as R2 is pulling in profits, they are not going to go out of their way to fix squat. If all the cashers stopped, even for just a month so it affected R2s paycheck, then I guarantee you we will have a fixed game with minimal lag and one that is fair to all players. But the cashers cannot help themselves. The give R2 their money no matter how broken the game is. So they are the main problem.

[Meikura001]

You know, on year 1 of this game, I used to have those "cashers" call me a whiny little b*expletive* because I did not spend. At that time, I call them cheats and told them they have no skill or balls to do it without spending their money. In the end, I was told if I wanted to get anywhere in the world, I would have to spend as well.

Well, they were wrong as many years later, and after a hiatus I took to the other R2 game in which I eat spenders for breakfast and spit them out in PVP arenas, BGs, and tourneys, I have a very nice set of units that I can take home to momma (LOL). I look to the fools that foolishly spend on a broken game as mules (I could say jacka*expletives*es, but that would sound very harsh coming from me), and would laugh when things don't go their way. But after I have done that, I would understand that it's not a problem of them, but a problem for all the players as we're all stuck in the same hole.

Yes, the cashers "might" have something to do with some of the stuff, but the devs just simply do not care who's cashing and who's not when they release a shoddy game hoping to get more spending out of players. Should the players decide to band together and not spend, the only "excuse" available to them is the complete shutdown of the game with sorry note of "we regret to inform you....." (and I think you know where it goes from there). I've seen many games that are RPG based with no originality whatsoever...... just basically the same (BR, Gems, Colored level Eqs, etc.).

When this game goes down for good, it will be the day I hang up my guns and say good bye to online gaming. At least, I will say to myself that I have self control when it comes to "investing" in a product that does not give solid results.

[hildedan]

I love the New patch, it is amazing, and remember if you ask some big guys about help, most off the time they will help you. But remember if you one minutt is complaining about them cashing and the next minutt ask them for help they will remember you as a player they dont care to help. We who cash is supporting this game so we all can have a Nice game to play. So please stop complaining always about every new thing R2 is coming with is for cashers. You all would be able to get help in new dungeon if you behave nice and have some big friends. I am doing new dungeon every day in the week, so we can help all in the guild.

[R238423534]

There are 2 types of "complains" in here:

One is "complaining about cashing", which is criticism of the greed in this game.
This is known and by design of the game. Some think it's good. Some think it's bad.
Either way, the criticism is not geared towards players.
Since we still play the game, it's implicit that we still like the game and still accept its imperfections.
Such "complains" should be more precisely called "customer feedback" and it is intended for helping to improve the game.

The other is "complaining about cashers", which is more personal and could originate from either side.

As a former casher, I'd have to say, most of us did nothing mean to the free players and weaker players.
Some whiners are just jealous and psychopathetic.
Worse yet, most of those whiners have neither empathy nor mercy towards those who are equal or weaker than them.
If they were able to bully other players, they would, and they would blame it on the victims.
But when they met the ones stronger than them, they would play the victim, curse at the bigger ones, and give them a guilt trip.
That kind of person is always whining for their own (mental) reasons. They simply hate people. I don't think we should pay any attention to their complaints.

On the other hand, some cashers are indeed arrogant, rude and mean.
Such cashers possibly have some mental supremacy and want to "rule over" the rest of the game, but they have neglected that people would feel unhappy for being "ruled" in a game.
Unhappy people are unwilling and/or unable to make others happy, where "others" include the "rulers" themselves.
Th "rulers" bring no happiness to the game. That's why people don't like them and complain about them.
They are disliked for their bad behavior, not for their money or toon strength.
