No one actually plays like we the players do , they break things and leave them broken for months while they go about whatever the agenda of the week is at the time they refuse to go back and fix things before coming up with new broken junk then breaking things that never were broken before. This was an amazing game and ever since this group had been involved it's a complete pile of garbage I know my spending has stopped I was a 300 a week spender or 15k a year times the previous 3 years . Between people like me stopping spending and the bulk of the Asians market now eirw free 332 bases won't be long until you try to log in and can't because it doesn't exist anymore. Probably lost millions since space age release in total

 

[Manifesto]

Wow, 15k a year. Thanks for keeping this game alive as long as this. (truthfully, no sarcasm)
I couldn't imagine spending that on a game and its people like you that allow others to play for free. Appreciate it.

 

[Chadwicke]

Exactly Manifesto as long as 1/3 spend the game stays alive but when things you pay for don't work or example teir sales why would I spend 105$ on what I used to get for 50$? Half the crap I don't want so why do I have to buy it ? Would it not make more sense if I'm going to drop my weekly money on cards if there was something I wanted I would spend double the 105$ but because they try to rob me I give nothing instead this company is a guide for how not to run a application business no paying customer no application especially since the add video for free players doesn't work most arenta mad ad the "match making" application part of the how the video add is matched to the game and in turn the one who is sending the reward for time testing another game. Just adding a download to something else is all that is for . Then per view nexon gets paid and paid again if it is downloaded. Meanwhile the adds don't pay out ...so if I did this I would not want what was advertised so in turn I would stop downloading and nexom loses another income . But to be clear I didn't pay for a base to be killed in 60s , I didn't pay to be a review writer ,I didn't pay to be a game tester , I didn't pay to not have fun have total buyers remorse to the point if another game came our it it had nexon big huge on it I would not download it I would write a review instead warning people absolutely do not get whatever game it is go with a respectable game manufacturer like Electronic arts or besetha games absolutely not nexon big huge

Does that mean you have spent over 50 000 dollars on this game? Dang I would have spent it on private parties with elite models/escorts :/

If I were your wife I would have kicked you out!

everyone is free to spend its money the way he want even if I do not agree even if I was toni stark.
What I don't get it is: if you spend 1 cent or 10 mllion dollars what do you expect to get? it is a game, a way of doing business but it is a game. Would you expect it lasts forever? would you expect a ROI?
In my opinion if you spend 50k on this game you probably have billions, so why complaining ...buy NEXON!

Unfortunately, whales are NOT good for the game. As long as game makers use these exorbitant pricing structures to create pathways to the top for the whales there will be problems. The whole dynamic of the last couple of years has been devoted to creating new content for the whales. The existence of the whales, and their cooperation, caused this.

Game makers should focus on pricing mechanisms for the masses. Give me a great game that I can participate in fully for $5/month with a compelling reason to keep subscribing and watch it grow to millions of active paying members. Instead we get a game full of torturous build times, flashing marketing arrows, etc. and insidious pay2advance/ pay2win tendrils throughout. Every aspect of this game is designed to force you to pay more and more and more. The greed is off the charts and makes no sense until you remember it was made for the whales.

 

[Chadwicke]

Had those too lol

 

[Chadwicke]

Entertainment is the ROI and anything would last as long as there were people who would buy it

 

[Manifesto]

Black tiger
Remind me of the last time Nexon FORCED you to buy anything?
The whales are the ones enabling you to play for free.

 

[Manifesto]

Yes Chadwicke
Please buy Nexon then hire a team to recode the upgrade times to 1/2 what they are now.

 

[Chadwicke]

Upgrade should be 60% of what it is now just long enough to refill and a day so you have to plan for what you do as it is best to use all but 2 workers and do walls until it has a day and a half left then be full as they finally finish

 

[Uhuru]

Black tiger, you're absolutely right!
The existing model in the game sucks, it has no future. Game subscription is the only promising model who will not go to it that will not survive..

 

[albynos]

sorry Chad but I disagree. Investment is the action of investing money for profit and the key word is profit. Secondly this game will last until Nexon decides it has to end indipendently from who is buying and who is not. Let's say that at least your the most entitled to complain. In any case I'm be very curious to spot a 50k player base

 

[No Angel]

Are you single Chad? Can you buy me stuff since you don't spend in the game anymore?

 

[Manifesto]

albynos
I think Chad was talking about the investment of the players and you're talking about the investment for Nexon? Investing takes many forms, it's all about putting something into something else, not just money.
Yes, Nexon invests for profit but players invest for entertainment, as Chadwicke said.
If you're not playing this game for entertainment, what are you getting out of it?

 

[Manifesto]

Yes, that would be ideal.

 

[albynos]

I tell you what Manifesto, a player buys stuff to have a stronger account. Being said that he is not investing in entertainment, he is spending for entertainment that obviously it is not the same thing. As said I agree that anyone can spend his money the way he wants, but what I don't get is the purpose behind having a super upraded paid account; you upgrade your defences? good, it is useless as the game is attack oriented. you upgrade your army? good, it will be easier to defeat opponents, but it will not be funny anymore. You reduce construction timing? good and then you start complaining because Nexon does not upgrade the game? Do you understand my point?

 

[albynos]

I'm thinking that Chad message was just mentioned to scare Nexon as I don't think they have no regrets if the loose a 50k player

 

[Manifesto]

I'm not sure you understand your point.
You say spending money for entertainment is not the same as investing in entertainment. You make me laugh.
Moving on.
