Congrats FTX! You've managed to piss off the entire game, including many top paying players!

I hope some competent people who know how to design and run a real game for players develops the spin-off of John Jairo Velasquez's Surviving Escobar before FTX get their hands into it. :eek:

NOBULL is seriously considering leaving this game, after this latest money-grabbing debacle, disguised as an "update."

Sign petitions! Go on gold strikes! Complain to apple and Google! Enough is enough!

Whatever players must do to reach the developers wallets, I can assure you that you will have the backing of the most prolific gold spending cartel in this game.

I've never seen the amount of good, high level players stopping this game, as I have in the last 24 hours.

Bravo FTX
Thanks for your feedback here @CRABNUTZ - you've always been a big contributor both in the game and on the forums. This response is to you, and the general concept behind this thread as well.

To touch on a few points that have come up in light of the last update:
  • We are reverting the Gold reward for Champ III back to 250 in light of player feedback. I made a thread about this yesterday.
  • We are looking for ways to bring the Skills that do not add to set bonuses back into line value wise - and we are open to ideas. Check out this thread to help us make this change right and players feel like their Skills are worthwhile.
Beyond this, the fact that the Skills are not working well as counter strategies to various tactics is news to me. What suggestions do you have?

What are the other main issues - both with this update, and in general?

You are allowed to protest on the forums - but using bad language is against the rules. I will warn and delete posts with bad language as I always have. Please follow the forum rules in this case as with all posts and threads. Thank you.

I know your addressing crabnutz in particular,but as you can see from the comments/posts on the forum the last few days no one wants these "skills" get rid of them all together
All that was needed to address the no deploy situation was to either raise the health of the finca or simply make it immune to missile/firebomb.Its not rocket science bud.

If the issue with the "old" and "new" Skills was made right, and the new Skills balanced out properly - do you not think they can add a new layer of strategy to the game? Even if Finca HP was adjusted, it seems like the roots of a great feature to me, even if it needs some work.

Chase this isn't about a mere 250Gold a week. This whole skills negates the talent that people have forked allot of money. the talent without skill is not effective any more as these skills give huge amount of health to not only finca but defences too.in turn that nerfed Diego and scorpion. Also it's much easier to missile finca as you see from the video in page 2.

Exactly,I've invested a load of money/gold on talents for my Diego's,scorpions & quicas to be competetive and with this update they won't be as effective.
Time for ftx to just get rid of the skills completely.
Talent fusing is expensive enough as it is.

Well for starters do the common sense and right thing and make the old skills work with any set bonus combination, people are already not happy feeling like it's basically starting over and spending gold just to get us to the same place we're at. It was wrong to release skills barely 3 weeks ago and have us buy them to just say well they're obsolete they won't work with the new set combination bonuses. People arent happy with the skills in general, but removing the specific set combination bonus icon on the top left may be a start on people being a little receptive, probably not still. There is only one reason to not do the above and that is because of pure greed, not business sense. You guys are running the game as if it's a casino like your owners who are actually a casino company. This is not a casino, do not rationalize it and tell yourselves it's okay to be unethical and that it's okay to take people's money because people do it all the time in casinos.

Not being rude here bro, but how about you do the math and tell me what it would cost to get 1 perfect set of skills.

1/160 chance for a specific 5/5 assuming equal probability, and we all know 5/5 doesn't roll nearly as often as 1/5 does.

You think we are gonna spend thousands of dollars on this garbage ? Think about it.

You guys are days away, at best, from losing basically your entire player base.

Cartels that hate each other are united together against FTX, and are all willing to leave the game for something else. I have my entire cartel ready to migrate to another game if this isn't addressed in a timely manner (read: not months from now).

This is serious, please treat it as such, before FTX sees a giant drop in their monthly earnings.
