Hey Matt
I do thoroughly enjoy the game and have noticed a dramatic increase in stability. As long as I don't use a Trooper that is. Iplayed several times in each world with my own allies and zero problems. 1st time with a Trooper; server connection error. I appreciate the hard work you all have done and are doing to correct the issues. I will suggest taking a page from Blizzard and at the very least preforming scheduled weekly server restarts to all out 6 hour maintenance days. That way everyone will know when not to even try to play. Just sayin.
You got it worse than me then, poor thing.Quote:

Thank You Matt for posting your thoughts. It is always great to see a dev posting in the forum,but I would also like to point out that please don't forget us over here in the non-founders forum. Some of us just did not have the extra money to shell out for the founders pack,wish I did but it is what it is at the moment.
Love the Game,Play all the Time and already can't wait for the next big update and fixes.
Thanks Gonzo for bringing this issue up and Matt_LOTB (the dev) for giving us a heads up on the coming re-balance.
Agreed on the RNG system being a punch to the throat. Part of the the reason I haven't spent any money yet in the game.
I've been auto-grinding ToD on Battlefield MAD for the past 3 days and half of the drops have either been one star trash or common souls, the next forty percent is talismans, runes, and XP shards-- the remaining 1/10 is evo shards with the majority either being 2* shards or rainbow (21 of those 3* shards so far). I've only gotten all my main characters up to 4* in the past 5 days and have acquired the needed shards to upgrade my Solider Eddie and Allied Soldier green to 5* in the last 2.
The next class is purple with 4 3* shards, then Blue with 2 and last Red with a single 3* shard.
I'm currently at level 54, 70% of hitting the next and have been playing for over 20 days.
While we're waiting for the RNG re-balance there's a couple of tweaks in the meantime that might be simpler to code that could be made (even if only temporary) as ANTI-FRUSTRATION features:
1.) No one * drops on KOTS MAD, and Battlefield MAD
2.) In the 3* unlock levels have dedicated color evo shard drops in addition to the random drops. (Red for AilK, Blue for KOTS, etc.)
Dang happened again! I was fighting the Beast on Madness and had him bent over my lap, pants at his ankles, and I was giving him a good spanking, when "BAM!" RESTART NOW FOR GAME UPDATE. Son of a mother!
Sorry about that.Quote:

Same here. The update appear right after I defeated the Beast. Sigh.
I, for one, don't agree with the 1* drops. they have their purpose and I'd rather they drop constantly than having to go to a crappy level and get crap rewards for the sake of having a chance at getting a 1* or 2* evo item. I think a reduction in the drop rate for that would be the best answer. an all-out drop to 0 chance of getting it doesn't seem like it will help in the long run.Quote:

In the meantime, i can evolve 3 red character at 5, i have plenty of red shards of all tipe. But NONE of yellow and blue, ugh... :( Same with rune, i can evolve red ones at ease, but for green and blue, i'm stuck at 4. Have you symphathy for red color? XD
