Dev's, how to get me to spend my $100

I’m nearing the end of my previous 100 dollar purchase of hero points, and need to stock up again. Except this time, I don’t want to. Its not that I don’t have the money to spend. Its not that other games are competing for my cash. Its that your game is no longer worth investing in.

I am a 4* transitioner. I’ve got most of my 3*’s covered at this point, and I’m slowly working on maxing them out with Iso. 3* farming was fun and worth the reward. Yet the 4* is just dull. Why?

You offer a 4* in pvp for hitting 1k points. Oh, and first place, which is just laughable. Compare this to the way 3*’s were earned. I could potentially get 3 3* covers back when there were as many 3* characters as there are 4* characters now. You offer 3 covers in PvE, but I’ve grown quite sick of that impossible grind for some time now, and refuse to play that incredibly poor gameplay part of your game.

As such, I am no longer excited by new 4*’s. I know I’ll be able to use it in what, 6 months? Half a year? And in that half a year how many more 4*’s will come out that I’ll never get to use? The rate of earning 4*’s is so slow, I no longer feel rewarded for the work I put in.

Tokens were not a fix to this. CP earning is glacial. Not only that, the tokens are at 1300, something I will NOT grind toward. If I had to guess, those pushing toward 1300 points aren’t spending money. Why would they? They get all the HP for winning, and they already have the best 4*’s. Me, I’ll spend to get some HP, and even slot some toward my 4*’s.

But devs, I have to see a better game. Though I’m not a whale, I part with money willingly, and I’ve loved your game…until now. You need at least one more thing to make me feel like investing money to play the 4* transition. Until then, it stays in my pocket. And if its not fixed within a month or two? I will go spend my money in other pastures.

    Going by my gamependium history, I'm averaging over 1 4* a day for the last 3 months. I can't control the covers I open, but I don't think I would call this a slow rate at all. In fact, I'm always short of ISO to level them up. If it was slow, I would then be swimming in ISO with nothing to level.

    I aim for top 10 in pve when a 4* is released, I beat less than half of the 4* DDQ, and I only aim for 1k in pvp. So the average rate can even go higher.

    Good for you Pongie. Do you spend money on the game? Also, one 4* a day? I suppose that means you also play PvE, something I do not find fun. If you'll notice, this was feedback from a player who does not enjoy the current 4* transition game. If it is fine for you, that's great. How many hours a day do you play the game? I would think at your rate, its quite Korean free to play, something I have never found fun in any game.

    But beyond these points, I'm simply a spending player giving feedback to the devs. If the 4* game is only dedicated to those who play hours a day, so be it. My time will be done here. Continue to have fun at your pace, its just not for me.

    20 new people who spend 5 bucks on roster slots >>> 1 person who spends 100 bucks.

    Move on with your life and reset your expectations of progress in this game.

    By the time the 4* transition is sped up sufficiently, most top PVP alliances will be running around with 8+ covered 5*s, taking the spots where 4*s are given out.
    You know, just like the people with covered 4*s are taking T100 away from 3* transitioners right now.

    Not yet, and I've been playing for 11 months now. Routine is normally an hour each way during my train ride to/from work. Then ranging from 1-4 hours at night depending if I have to grind pve, climb pvp or not. At the very least it's DDQ.

    Obviously I don't get a 4* cover everyday but that's the average. Eg. Over 90 4* covers over the last 90 days.
