I would say hold on and see if they will fix it, they have fixed a lot of things.
Well they fixed the mining ATHs!
What slot machine is that? Regular days like today top maximum loot for mining is 1 or 2K ped maybe 5k ped if lucky and it can repeat this result for months. Months without seeing anything bigger than 5k. But then they dropped a 400K ped. Now that is a huge carrot to chase! To me it had the opposite effect because your slot machine Mindark, looks damn broken!
And you guys even dare to talk about volatility, haha so funny. What kind of volatility is that? You guys know how much a average player loss per hour? When i craft or hunt the minimum wage is 50 ped per hour and most of the times 100peds /hour. Now that is an expensive "game" don't you think? Plus in most cases it looks like a job and not like a game, just go mining unamped or craft sub 1ped items and then tell me how funny it was.
Sure this new CEO seems to being improving things, we even had 3 VUs in less than one week in contrast with one year (last year or maybe 2 years ago) when Christmas trees were still present in main cities and it was already March or even April.
This example of mask design downgrade is also another reason that makes me think they never played their game in full. Same with space vehicles. And so many other things.
To me the game started to die in 2012 when they though that would be a good idea to broke dreams and hopes to everyone with the introduce of loot caps on almost everything they called it
modified loot. lol Again so funny.
Does anything makes sense here at all? People pay thousands of dollars for Space vehicles and you still need to go pm them or use external game sites to travel around space? The old line at Twins would make so much more sense. Why not make a event like system for travels around space? Why cut the legs on makeup designers? Why can i loss 100peds per hour but i can't win 10k in one loot? But then you see a guy hitting 400k+ peds? Volatility? Please dont say that word never again. Have anyone of the dev team went to try a Sand King and get a All Time Low (~1500ped)? If you go with ok dps to loss 150-200 peds is super normal. In one loot event? For real?
The game was so much cheaper to play back in 2008 - 2012, sure some unL gear was super expensive. For example 5B's plates were tt+150 or something when i started. I remember buying one each month with my little monthly depo but back then the game was also FUN! Oh and we didn't even had missions back then but it was FUN to play! Seeing ppl hitting 8k drones/argos made me think that it could be me next time. Now with ~ lvl 75 BLP i feel like i have much less chances to recover my lost peds. Good loots now only seems to be possible immediately after my monthly depo then it closes again until the next depo. Well that if there will be a next depo ever again.
You guys think about all those side projects like the deep token that i never really understood the point of it and the compet that in reality looked like a game for children and many other projects. From where that money came from? From us players of course!!
The compet could have worked if we could use ingame pets and skill them there on the mobile but that was never possible!? Why? Why release the game if we could not use our ingame pets on the mobile game? And why the pets have such a weak buffs? Of course because you can buy boxes that loot rings with much more powerful buffs from webshop a.k.a. fresh money for them. Why you think that they removed boxes on Sweden? Their own country? Stay silent dont call the authorities here let us still taking care of our players money like we did in the past. WTF they even had Castles at some point. There was so much money that they started to buy and sell real states instead of focus on the game that has given them all they had.
I bet if they were a casino for real they would be investigated and closed by now that's why they banned the boxes in their own country.
They say find your niche but then they come and they change everything to the point you can't play it anymore. Greed greed and more greed is what i see here. Sorry I had to vent out all those things.
Have a good day everyone!
