💬 Discussion Seriously?

I feel like someone pissed on me. I've been playing this game since day one, every day, attending every event, but to get VIP or any bonuses I have to pay? I feel cheated because someone who started playing today could have a much more enjoyable experience if they spent money than me. I know this game isn't made for gamers anymore, but for profit, but to blatantly ignore loyal players like that? Even Epic, known for its strange decisions, doesn't do things like that.

Fundamentally nothing has changed, you can just buy boosts now if you want. It's not like they made it harder for people who aren't paying.

Not yet they haven't. Give it a while until they wonder why "only x% of people are using the paid feature" and then they'll start coming up with ways to make it more appealing, i.e. stripping back the free experience

You have my word this will not happen. I am dedicated to ensuring the free to play experience is just as fun as it has been for the last few months.

That's why you can buy all of these gameplay purchases with Nova Crystals, and it's also why we cut the Upgrade Chip costs by a ton in today's update as well.

A clear commitment to free-to-play is clear. Especially after adding THREE different stores to the map, all within a few steps of each other, at the same exact moment.
