Askora checking out

[Askora]

The time has come and gone that I should have stopped playing. It's finally reached the point where I have absolutely no desire to play. I'm trying to play through the end of the week and as of this moment have played nearly all my troopers since reset, but now is the time to seek a new trooper. A few have been with me for quite a while, a few for only a short time. Thank you all for the badges, the competition, the camaraderie here in the forums. It's been a pleasure.

It's no longer fun, and the long awaited BNW is an epic joke with the flurry of new and old bugs it's brought. Visually it's great and it does provide more of a challenge than the regular dungeon levels, but the bugs and the cost/reward ratio make it a failure. Don't get me wrong, even had BNW been great I'm still at a point where I'm ready to take a break. I started playing December of 2016 and have played every day religiously which is a lot of time to donate towards a game.

I'm not sacrificing my roster, so there will always be a chance I can come back but for now I just need time away to do things I enjoy. The direction of the game is also not one that I care to follow. There was a time that I believed in it, but with the current direction I'm appalled. It almost seems as though NF is doing their best to drive long time players away, it makes sense as new players won't know that the game was ever anything more than a money grab with no rewards.

You know why they won't tell you drop rates? Because of how horrible they are. A quick one for you, in BNW Fear Level 10 each drop (65% chance of 3, 35% chance of 2 and 15% chance of 4) you have a 3% chance for a chance of a talisman. From there it's still a 28% chance you only get gold and with 12 talismans in that group you have to be really lucky to build a set in any remotely reasonable amount of time. The thing you're most likely to get farming that level is 4 3* Red Runes per drop. For the time investment and the ironite investment that's pathetic. I've done the research and unless there is some other weighting factor those numbers are accurate. As a side note, it really is a 50/50 coin toss going into pvp and yes the defense gets a hefty buff on effects proc'ing.

Up the Irons!

Thanks for all the badges, and I get it. I've only been playing since April, and I'm starting to wonder how I'll keep up with 50 troopers a day and no SOT refill on level up, when I hit level 100.

Anyway, it was good to have a fellow Texan on the team and I'll keep you on for sure.

Damn man another trooper gone. You echoed a lot of complaints most of us have. Hate to see ya go but you gotta do whats best for you. Take care of yourself Brother.

have a good time aside the game askora, sad to see another forum member loses his interest, but well, most of us understand the issue. it takes them 1 year to release BNW and they did some real basic mistakes, that chases players away. hope this will be adresses asap, otherwise we will see many more of these posts.

best wishes man

Good job dev team, you're in the right way....we are losing all players

[Blacksteel]

See you Askora and hope all goes well for you, maybe see you back some day if all things align, thanks.
Devs your work was nice in concept and content, if a bit delayed, but, the character bugs, reward vs cost ratio which is kinda bad after the first run and all the freeze and crash make it suck, I recommend to be more careful in the future, good players are leaving.

Sorry to see you go :/

This is really disheartening to read. You have been the biggest proponent of patience with NF. You seem to have the best grasp of their business model. Your loss coupled with Mammy's is a tough one. This makes 5-6 senior members in the last few weeks. Apparently, NF feels that enough "new suckers" are joining that they can get by. I will not use really money again on this game. Thanks Nodding Frog.

Going to miss seeing you around here, Kevin. Best wishes brother, take care of your health and enjoy your life. If you wander back and want a Trooper (and if I'm still here), send me a request \m/
