Pix IS trying to help. Now you have extra time to earn enough Ag for the next upgrade. ?

F-ing BS  I can’t tell if this was planned or they just don’t know what they’re doing. Every month they change things around, there’s no consistency. Just throwing crap at the wall. And they have all the data, they knew the rate at which people make silver and what they could get in WS 2.0. They knew the impact on the ‘economy’, it was the big selling point: “most items 3 times faster to acquire”. So now we’re back to old acquisition times but with new economy upgrade times. And next month they’ll jank us around again and the month after that and month after that. It’s this incompetent headless chicken management style that’s killing the game. Maybe this is all part of their plan but I think they don’t know what they’re doing and scrambling to find something, anything, that might keep profits up. |

Called it! Glad I built 5 Avengers before this started; God knows it's the only cheap to get Heavy that's effective these days. On the downside, each one is still a ridiculous cost to upgrade.

While it's a terrible way to treat your customers it's not actually that bad imho.
You can still build 25% of an item in one go.
I'll still be building rigs faster than I can decently level them!

Maybe this is all part of their plan but I think they don’t know what they’re doing and scrambling to find something, anything, that might keep profits up. When WS2.0 was introduced i did say grab needed items asap because this wont last. These sort of things never last and get watered down. Planned as always. So now we doubled production time for better items to 35 days which is about half as fast as it used to be before WS2.0. And the new eco remained  the initial claim of three times faster is now 2 times faster. This change will affect people who can run lower leveled gear, like playing with different gear and those who need less than 35 days to level gear to a usable level. So low to mid leagues are hit the hardest. For those in higher leagues who put RM on the table this is just an incemental price rise. Pix has a real issue on their hands imo becuse all these P2W related mechanisms are not increasing revenue while downloads are half as much as they used to be. So the question is i suppose, how long can they maintain revenue levels while the user base is in decline. i cannot see how the current situation is sustainable if the P2W strategy remains and the userbase is declining. Something will have to give. |
