New Game Data 01/03/2019

Any ideas what this was all about? Just a hot fix maybe?

Looks like tuning went into place. Rare soul costs have gone up and Pharaoh has the projected updates.

I'm glad I read the update yesterday. I would have lost a lot of souls. It only took 1000 button clicks. They should have gave a few days warning for people who weren't available to read the post.

This can't be real :mad:
Block me for a few days if you want but I need to say from the bottom of my heart [moderated comment]!
This was not even 24h after the preliminary information. We were discussing in the update thread and asking for some clear explanation and this is what we get? [moderated comment] Europeans coming home from work and bam here we take away your saved resources? This is unbelievable. When I saw the new data info I hoped for a claim all button but what you do is the exact opposite and you fool us loyal players without giving enough time to claim our souls? Wow, how desperate. Again you made a lot of new "friends" with this.

Blade I am in the same boat. I started questioning the fragments change and less than 24 hours they push a "new data" just to do that change? what happened to the "the new update will be pushed at 10AM CT"? like give us a change to claim our souls! Fuck this man, beyond upset I lost more than 50% of all my stored soul inventory. I usually pair with them, give them the benefit of the doubt but this time they deserved a big FU! shitty move indeed

[Blade]

I feel you... I planned to start claiming souls tonight or sometime during the weekend when I have time. Also I expected the update to come on a Wednesday as usual with the classic maintenance warning message. So I have about 1% hope that this went wrong as the update should just be prepared but not performed yet.
Come in guys, show us some respect and turn back the update or if not possible add the lost frags to our inventory!

[slauki]

well not a very classy move, i have to agree. msf has a smart inbox system where devs can inform all players about upcoming changes some time before they apply. this would be a good way to communicate with the entire playerbase and not just the few forum members.

this should have been communicated better, since there is no reason to unnecessary obset your players. also the legendary soul increase from 100 to 250 is very steep and so it the increase from the normal rare soul....

[Muzzleloader]

They could have started a new type of soul that the conversion wasnt nessessary. Then there wouldnt have been a loss of souls or time wasted in converting frags to souls.

[Stormseye]

I agree that the update was pushed without enough time for people to prepare but I have to ask why do so many people not turn their frags into souls immediately? Is there a benefit to having frags over souls? I always convert mine over the minute I get enough frags.

Because you can only have 49 stacks of souls and have no need to claim souls until a event requires it

Exactly! It is part of my strategy and inventory management to keep the soul inventory small, as you need those spaces for all those different types of souls. Recently this was even more important due to the souls that were rewards from different events. Also it is a good strategy to avoid yourself using more souls than you originally planned e.g. in an event.
E.g. I had only one legendary in the soul inventory after the last sac event, but close to 100 legendaries in form of frags in the inventory... or should I say 40 now? Oh man this is so disappointing.

I would love to hear a word from the devs about what happened here

[GrimDusk]

I haven't yet thought of a response to the fragment changes, but I will point out HS Eddie and The Clairvoyant both have new art!

[Stormseye]

Gotcha, makes sense. I guess I never had that many soul stacks before.

[Blade]

Really? You have never seen the error message for soul inventory overflow so that you need to sacrifice/sell characters (that you planned to keep) just because you were rewarded with some new soul types that need a new stack in the inventory? Because then I started to rethink my strategy...

[Blade]

if you are interested...in that situation the fragments button is grey as you cannot go there due to the overflow

[Purplepixii]

Don't hold your breath, the stupid, idiotic, thoughtless, money-grabbing team are probably rubbing their hands with glee.

Nice one Nodding Navigator Frogs (or whatever your name is this week) - well played /slowclap

[Ace]

Well said ;)
