How about nerfing the computer players as well, some enemies like Mike and Pegasus keep insta-killing my team

I’m excited for the new chapter although I’m on chapter 46.
Yes, we pinpointed this system as one of the bigger contributors to the unhealthy stamina system. I apologize for the disappointment this caused; in our excitement to push forward new stamina gains and reach a more balanced state, we did overdo it a little bit in some cases. Finding the correct balance is never easy, so as we reviewed data after the overhaul, we saw that we had more work to be done!
Character quests will go through an update as well! We’re unsure at this time how often we’ll have Prize Walls given that approval times for costumes can be as volatile as new heroes (Disney is very strict with us!)
Yes, we’re still looking into more guild perks this year, however our immediate focus is hero balance!
Gold we hope to investigate soon as well!
Please be kind! We have just returned from the break, and we have yet to find a fix for the elite campaign bug. I apologize for the wait and the frustration, but we were out of the office the past 2 weeks so unfortunately there was no progress during that time period.

Happy New Year!
I am interested about the stamina changes. I had some shortage issues with stamina lately, so I am suprised that you are going in this direction.
When can we expect news for the next new character btw? I am quite excited to grind out someone new

Can we expect it to return to it’s ‘regular’ amount of appearance? It’s a good event and encourages diamond spend - without it, there’s really not much worth spending diamonds on in the game. Hopefully the new stamina balancing will allow it to come back?

I don’t have a definitive date yet, unfortunately! The new hero is also our immediate focus now that we’ve returned!
Yes, once we get all the changes out and reach a good balance, we hope to return stamina bonus buys back to its normal cadence! There is still a little bit of research and rebalance to be done for now.

This is me being kind
Is there anything you guys could do to help us with this bug until you fix it? Some people have been requesting the all elite raid button. That seems like a good idea
From what I understand, this means that you guys will increase the stamina cost 
that’s not good. And how about the lag? The lag in game is getting worse and worse with each cap raise… My game froze when I finished team trial and port

How about to lower the gold costs which is ridiculous? @TheGrillFather that’s something you know from a long time and you do nothing about it…

I hope Luz and Amity will be in this game!

Tbh more than this I would expect it to be the amount of stuff gotten in the deals.
Seeing deals with 200 cost refreshes and having a bonus before Christmas.
I’d say you just need to figure out how many cost refreshes you need to use to equalize a deal with stamina consumables.
Or… swap the stamina consumables with cost refreshes and diamonds forever. And people can choose whether they want to spend them right away, with bonus, after cap raise, …
It was just really unfortunate to set the trial refresh to 17.3M stamina since even with cost refreshes it was too much. And with deals too. Despite me knowing you have to get money to finance the future of the game somehow.
Btw, the game is down.

I’m just going to say this again as I know I have said this before @TheGrillFather …. Maybe instead of you guys pushing new ranks every month, make it every two months…. Give u guys more time to review bugs that seem to keep reappearing with next cap increases over and over again. Another day game is down as as a ftp missing out on energy collection that is needed.

We’re working on fixing this! Unfortunately Surge and War running at the same time is causing performance issues (old game things). I’m sorry for the frustration!

If that’s the cause… why not just make the timer for surge extend an hour? That way they both don’t end at the same time? I’m sure people will not fuss over an extra hour of surge .

That would be possibly a good way to do things. Personally it could even end 3h later - that would be another free stamina time for me.
Also - a question for you, TheGrillFather - I did notice that get more stamina buy are… rather high as you did say but also that free stamina is rather low. Any chance it could be changed later on when doing some changes? Cause rn it’s quite not worth even claiming the free stam.

at risk of sounding like a luddite, what about the game being old contributes to such performance issues? the code doesn’t ‘deteriorate’, functions that took 10ms on day 1 aren’t adding extra ms over time for no reason. If anything, the player hardware has gotten faster?

How much longer on this update, it still won’t let me play
For real?? I have 1,000.MM gold and all the skills maxed, I have no idea how to spend gold in contest… =/
I asked the same thing myself! To change the Surge time. However, if I remember correctly, there were other issues that popped up and we couldn’t settle on a good time. I’ll ask if we can revisit.
Because each interaction by players contribute to data getting sent back and forth; with increased numbers (such as more gold, more bits, more stamina, etc), cause performance issues because the sheer amount of data transfer is way more than when we had less heroes and less items or game modes, regardless of hardware improvement. Better hardware may mitigate some of these issues, but it does not help fully alleviate with the data transfer. (aka it’s more of the software issue and limitations of server size due to high costs)

Anyway one thing I did not mention @TheGrillFather.
I want to help a bit with Team Trials Refresh.
I may be convicted of doing that stamina high flow… cause I wanted to get 1.5M of every badge bit to see which are the most used.

Aka someone didn’t do a very good job with the crafting trees since Yellow+12. Since it caused duplicities which are now calling back and forth the server.
And to think I figured this out as far back as Yellow+16 cap, over 18 months ago… oof
