They were not crying about anything, just giving an example. Also stated “over 10k”, which is same as in your example. The point was, I believe, to make a complaint about ridiculous stamina cost in general.
I´d like to remark on these particular words again. And it´s not just PerBlue in this case but…
Everytime you ask for a change in something and the devs send a message like that it´s essentially equal to the “No. We won´t do that. It hurts our business model.” said in a mega non-chalant way.
I have the impression of some of the words giving a sense of false hope. But I understand, if Polaris and the devs said it straight right away, then:
A) half of the players (at least) won´t be there anymore
B) the other half might leave or go F2P since they know even the best feedback will be shutted by that phrase, even if not said, easily visible.
Business model works, but business as a whole might or might not. Let´s see what happens when it starts to crumble.
Anyway, I decided to give a “F2P” insight of upgrading some characters from R11 to R12.
I had 70 Get More Stamina refreshes and 10,962 diamonds. Spent 20 of them and I am now at 462 diamonds.
You know how many heroes I got from R11 to R12? THREE. Tell me @Polaris was that even meaningful expenditure of 10,500 diamonds to upgrade the rank of three heroes?
And, just to add more fuel into this, I activated double drops. It won´t be even two heroes without them.
What does this say? Get More Stamina has a terrible withstand value on the current rank cap.
Nothing but a small request, please buff Maui.
Nothing but a small request, if you buff Maui, please make enemies in PvE unequipped with disks. Thanks!
Kahuna you have to stop.
@Polaris, if this is true then can we get an official statement rather than taking a player’s word for it?
If this is true, it is shocking! We really need a statement!
I believe that they might be a vendor for generic info that we give such as DHBM account history but I don’t believe that they would genuinely sell private information, but who knows.
Never say never…
That is not part of the game Terms of Use. Please do not post false information on the forums.
Okay. Thank you for the statement. Don’t blame us, how could we know…
Well Facebook, Facebook messenger, Facebook watch, line, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Skype and many other mobile apps including games out there sell everything from your phone.
Pictures
Phone calls including the actual conversation
Text messages
Email
Contacts
Passwords typed anywhere, app, browser, phone it self
Usernames, see password
Basically anything you do or have on your phone these apps own and can sell on to anyone paying.
Most famous is the phone calls you get from companies who wanna sell you stuff or those scams about insurance or your pc they buy those numbers from those apps.
But ads that follows you from phone to phone or pc is another way they sell you out.
But it doesn’t change the fact that they own the copy right to everything on your phone after you installed and use them.
Now if these apps clearly can do these things and the law allows this there nothing that would stop pb from doing the same. So far I haven’t found them to be doing this if I did would the app be uninstalled, the apps mentioned above are not allowed on my phone or if I have people over who use them are they not allowed on my wi-fi as they also steal wi-fi password and what devices is connected to your LAN and their address.
So don’t worry if what this guy says ever become true I would post here before deleting and never come back, right now am I still fighting pb in regards to their lack of security that allows other people full access to your account.
I don’t think Polaris was blaming us. It was more just a statement warning us against future misinformation.
It was on perblue official website…(not the game)
“Games terms of use goes to detail about everything and clears it out”
But thanks for conforming that this game doesn’t do that
So @Polaris thank you for addressing the concerns
And sorry for making a fuss about it
I have never seen the amount of players leave the game like they have the last 6 months.
Server 1 is getting small. Our 1% in contest is half of server 2. Who knows how bad on other servers.
Might need a game wide boycott. But doubt everyone have it in them to commit
As a f2p player (who is also VIP 10) on server 9, I look at the health of the server by how well I rank powerwise. The higher I rank, the worse the server is doing.
Back when the server was doing so poorly that it had to merge with three other servers, I was in the top 700 (I was ranked six hundred and something). After the merge, I was back down into the 2000s, maybe even 2100s. But now, I’m back up to the top 900 (I’m ranked like 885 I think right now).
So it’s pretty clear to me that things are not going well for the server. And of course, we all have anecdotal evidence of people quitting the game like crazy.
Crazy thing for F2p!
Monthly We F2P Get around 60k-70k stamina and one badge costs 10k -14k! So My whole month work and hardship is just for 5 badges…How cool
