All of these terrible changes happened very suddenly too. Ending free to play events, introducing gotcha orbs, and all of the other stuff all started within the same week. Somebody hit the "cash out" button at Scopley.
Same. But while Battleworld was up, his ultimate was a godsend against OML bc before I got the whole Astral team, I struggled a lot using Pegasus in those specific nodes. ...and this is where my compliments end bc everything else about Batttleworld was ass
Two things that happened that made the game go down hill. Laying off experienced workers like most of the art team (most of the new models are bad) and hiring the new game director. He clearly was brought in with a mandate to boost profits. I was willing to shell out $80 a month because I saw value in the passes but now that they want $300+ a month I don't even spend the $80 anymore.
Interesting. We haven’t really heard anything about the new game director. I’ll have to look it into and see if I can also figure out when they started working.
@@mrstephen43084 I believe he started around spring of 2023. They had no one in that position for a while, and that was when the game was more player friendly. As soon as the new guy took over, they started to shift to this current model they are using.
@do you mean spring 2024? Spring 2023 was when good things started happening. Spring 2024 was when OML star gate happened followed by a lot of other infamous changes.
I did not log in today for the first in 18 months I've been playing. Stopped spending money when Captain Brexit came out and now I'm done completely. I can never keep up with the new teams and it sometimes takes me over an hour to do my daily attacks. No regrets, I enjoyed my time in the game however I feel at this point my time is best spent doing something constructive.
Once a year there's a big uproar against the game, triggering movements or boycotts. Scopely then pretend to care, changing some features to be more player friendly. Then back to greed and start over.
I really hate the way EVERY SINGLE HOBBY/FUN THING has change from people who love doing something doing it, making it good, and worrying about the money later. Now EVERYTHING is just: Do whatever s necessary to scam people to make as much money as possible.
Boy I feel this between this game and apex legends the 2 biggest things I spent money on for entertainment Value as a escape for a dad of 5 it's really sucked the happiness outta of meet
I agree, and it's not even like they're scraping the barrel trying to survive as a company. They're making hundreds of millions of dollars. Ridiculous to be scamming people to play a broken game.
Been playing since the beginning, log in every day, and I’m thinking about calling it quits. I’ve spent a lot of money, and will never spend again. Game not even fun anymore.
Effect of any corp layoff only shows up after a certain period of time. Content of last six months was the leftover of previous dev team. If new dev team can’t come up with quality content, we’ll continue to suffer in the months to come.

I wish these votes would get rid of the visible percentages and show the results after it ends. I feel like it coerces people into just voting for whoever is in the immediate lead when it starts since it makes their choice feel pointless...
How is a game that makes 100's of millions of dollars laying people off and cutting staff to the point where the game suffers. It just boggles the mind that so many things go wrong with MSF while being massively funded.
I still haven't forgotten how the diamond thing really irritated me. They could've released a new star color, and layered that on top of red's, instead they designed them to insulate krakens with previously maxed out toons - and all the future toons they could be relied on to min-max. Their business model is 'what do the krakens want?' (how can we extract more kraken money) and that is deleterious. They are sucking the life out of the community. Blizzard did the same thing after Wrath of the Lich King release. They only indexed with the handful of people that played the game 12+ hours a day, they made already difficult raids even harder, more complicated, et al. and casual people left. It was hard enough to find a guild and 25 teammates. There are a dozen game modes that I don't have the time to play all of and toon abilities are 1,000 word treatises on how full-time gamers/whales are going to wreck me. If you could 'get ahead' (or at least keep up?) by just buying a single 20-25USD monthly pass, they'd probably have enough more players that it would offset the difference of their current model: pandering to ""envoys"" (krakens) who spend 100s a month. Not to mention; Thor IW still goes invisible, Groot still floats in midair on revive, error codes: gray three, spider three, thunder two to name but a few, shops go blank and stop responding to touch, no attack animations in BW to glitch knull damage (I can still do it). P.S. They obviously don't care because the only change I've seen is better 'deals' in the webstore. It's a joke.
These past few days i found it hard to be excited to play the game.. i usually wake up early to do marvel strike chores (our reset is at 5am) but now i realized that iv been opening the game more late than usual almost near the next energy recharge with all my raid and event energy full :/ at this time i think the only reason im staying is cus of the alliance
Alliance, habit and sunk cost. The last one is real as a month 1 player. I know it's shit. I know it will not get better. I know walking away is the right thing to do. But having invested time 99% of days over nearly 7 years is hard to give up on. I console myself with the knowledge that I'm not giving them money or chasing the carrots they dangle.
I opened my wallet in the beginning of the year, first for a ftp player since launch. Now it feels like we've been slapped in the face and they ran off with the money. I've never been this close to dumping this mess, it's an addiction, just being honest. Gonna be tough, but I think it's for the best. Appreciate all the years of fantastic content!
I’ve been playing MSF for 3-4 years now, haven’t spent a dollar on the game and I am just now level 95 and so close to Super Skrull but I can’t build any good teams either because the character is locked behind a impossible scourge or I can’t get any gold and/or training materials then I see these people who started a year or less ago who are already unlocking Odin and it kinda makes me mad because I must have started at the worst time possible. Sorry for the rant but I’m just bummed out that I got the bottom of the barrel
I understand where you’re coming from. I’m a relatively new player, I started playing in June of this year so about 6 months now and I just completed my second run on DD7 so I now have a max Mephisto. I’m not F2P of course, I bought 2 of the time heists which boosted me from lvl 85 to 98 and I also started buying every pass about 3 months ago. So I’d say overall I’ve spent about $400 over the last 6 months. Some of the guys in my alliance have been playing for years and haven’t completed DD7 yet and they aren’t Completely F2P either. They spend minimal amounts of money on good deals/passes. I thought it was crazy how fast I was progressing through the game. It feels like I’ve been playing for years. The biggest boost was within these last 2 months. I got Skrull about a 1 1/12 months ago and got Mephisto less than a month later. I prioritized Red gear from the event stores and focused on only upgrading characters I needed for dark dimension. I also watch multiple TH-cam guides to help me progress more quickly. But even so, no matter how good I am at the game or how much time I invest it makes no sense that I have Mephisto and my alliance buddy’s don’t. Even though we’ve spent similar amounts of real money on the game. I’d understand if I played for a year or more , but I haven’t. Idk, I’m obviously grateful for the progression but I feel like loyalty and long term commitment should be more important and rewarded than new players joining. Idk.. sorry for the rant.
@@jaytonwilliams5805 No don't be sorry. I've heard that Scopely is rushing new players to the end of the game so buying offers makes sense and isn't rote like it is with the top alliances. But I've been playing the game for almost 5 years and I'm terribly close to getting a seven star Mephisto.
@ global nodes were the biggest bottleneck. I used orchis on my first run, then decided to bring up X-treme and alpha flight. My first run took me 2 weeks, my second run with the 3 teams took me 2 days. Alpha flight helps a lot tbh
@@jaytonwilliams5805Great insight and that's actually a good thing for the game. Not only does it show that scopely are thinking about new players but players who actually spend. This is important for any game I can't state how your other team members have done who've played longer but from experience they probably made too many mistakes with their roster. You followed guides and watched TH-cam videos to help you make good choices.
The sudden shift with the terrible orbs that give you the farmable characters instead of the featured for that week was where this really went off the rails. But going back further, remember when there was a pocket dimension with QS and Dh that people couldn’t get through? That was really the first time I stepped back and said “whoa! What is going on over there?”. It is one thing to have bugs, but to put out content in a game already very sparse in new content as a whole, that is unplayable for many and untested on launch, was extremely worrying.
0:27 What QA? They haven't had one major event without hiccup. The QA failure is the leadership hearing there's bugs but still push code to production.
I stopped playing over the Thanksgiving break, and haven't looked back since. After 3 years, I realized it was just the routine of logging on and going through the usual bland game modes that kept me playing. Hopefully another Marvel hero collector comes out some day that will be worth coming back to, but I don't think MSF will ever be that game.
I'm at a real tough spot with this game, I came back a little over a year ago and I was liking how fast I could the catch up and was able to get Xtreme Xmen up to 7RS pretty quickly but after that is when everything went downhill really fast and it took me until Octover to finally have 7RS for all of Spider Society. make it make sense how one team I was able to max out quickly, and the other was just a slog. Also the raid store, hello? its been like 6 months since Pandapool has been in there, and there's a bunch of other toons that have no need to be in there anymore. I stopped spending money on this game because I'm starting to see this game just go into a death spiral for low spenders like myself and F2P to just having a swarm of Krakens keeping this game afloat, I feel like most marvel games whether its mobile or F2P(Like Rivals just releasing) is just a cash grab profiting off the popularity of Marvel and the MCU.
It honestly feels like they're trying to get the game to be run, developed and maintained by AI and a skeleton crew. Like they're trying to make it run on its own, be as cheap as possible and make as much as possible.
I think they might be using AI and then touching them up. All of the characters are in a completely different style Zoom in on Taskmaster's right side (with the sword) look at the chest plate and the arms. It's like they went in with a giant hard brush and blotched on top. Winter Soldier looks like he's made of copy/pasted elements on top of eachother
I was stupid enough to pay money on this game and have enjoyed it but with endless dark dimensions and additional upgrade requirements I am done never spending another dime.
I lost my streak having not logged in on Saturday because I just couldn’t be bothered. Logged in on Sunday did challenges and left again because I got bored. Such is the state of the game. I remember a time when I used to panic that I wouldn’t make it in time to claim my campaign energy. Now I practically force myself to log in
I started playing at the beginning of 2024 and I would probably have been considered a whale. Ended up in an alliance that was Top 100 in everything, worked (spent) my way to top 200 in the Odin race, and was sitting in the Top 100 in the SK trial before I gave up on my account. I just cannot stomach supporting a company that so clearly cares so little for the customers and customer satisfaction. Every decision felt like a short term money decision, not a long term move for the game. Great community of players that all deserve better from the company. Thanks for everything MG, always enjoyed your content.
Maybe guys like you realise one day, that your spending behaviour actually does also contribute HEAVILY towgamesthe downfall of many games (bot only mobile games). Companies with the goal to make money see your brainless spending behaviour and change game designs to milk you donkeys while ruining the game for you and all the low spenders and f2p players either way. Scopely did many wrong decisions and has the highest guilt of the current state. But boy you guys are part of the problem ffs
@ if nobody spends on the game then there is no game. Feel free to play how you want, blaming those who spend for the poor decisions of a game maker is completely misguided.
@@chrishuggins2131most of the player base is f2p or light spender. If they left, no whale would wanna play, as there are no 'scrubs' to be better than. Heavy whaling is what got us to this.
@@Zenkrypt without heavy whaling, the game would have been gone long ago. Taking your frustrations with the game out on the people keeping it alive doesn’t make sense. The vast majority of whales and dolphins feel the same way about the decisions being made with the game as F2P and light spenders. Thats why so many are leaving. A mobile game that has to also pay for a Disney owned IP stands no chance without spenders to compensate for everyone else to enjoy the game. It’s typically 5% of the player base paying for the other 95%. Personally, I was happy to spend what I could afford on the game to keep it rolling when it was still a game and not just chores.
There’s no way to get purple iso unless you want to spend £30 a time. What’s the point of logging in if you can’t earn the things you need to progress. Even the milestones that give iso need spending. Time to give in I think.
The game isn’t dying. But, the next 3 months aren’t going to be easy. Somehow, I still have a lot of reasons I like playing the game. But, I think a lot of ppl are going to think twice about spending money, if for no other reason than confidence in Scopely is pretty low. I think pulling bw was the right decision with the long term picture in mind. It’s probably going to cost Scopely a lot in the short term. Now they need to continue to make long term decisions (which I feel have been in too short of supply the last 4-5 months).
The game has been a complete mess for ages now. I have absolutely zero care about it anymore. I only still play out of habit and partly down to some decent pulls on some new toons. Definitely on the verge of deletion
I hate logging in, I just do it so my alliance doesn’t get upset tbh. I don’t want to let go because of sunk cost fallacy, but I’m really close to dropping it entirely
That intentional "mistake" They made with the monster 🐓 on yelena made me quit. I've had enough Im not playing a game that is now subliminal trying to derange us
New characters are great, but spread it out, with all these reworks and building up of the characters. Not enough resources. Scopely was more interested in taking our money, by putting so much product out there, players can’t keep up. It’s losing the fun, and feels more like a job. Games shouldn’t be this way. It’s greed over fun. 🤦♂️ That’s too bad. I’ll stick it out until it actually is finished, but that would suck cause that’s 6 years playing everyday straight. Over 2600 days never missed a day. I miss when it was owned by Foxnext.
I agree and I don't. I can't remember a Thanksgiving that left ppl happy, and end of year has always felt more cash grabby than normal. But we have had more Game Quality issues than normal. But then typically they do give us something to look forward to, to tide us over the break. This is exceptionally bad though this year, and with MCoC, KA, PoE2....ppl have a lot of other gaming options right now. Lastly time the game was this bad the LotR game game out, and tons of ppl went there. Luckily for MSF, LotR was a bad game. Im still hoping for a road map, but my guess is, they'll still focus on Xavier, which we've had for nearly a year already, so that's not going to get much hype. They may announce a level cap increase pre break, that could be good for spending endgame players, giving them something to chase. But I think that will further alienate f2p and midgame players
I've been voting ghost I remember on my first run of msf I used her dd2 and I think dd3 her ult at one point was not bad with her health steal I remember early msf getting stuck behind multiple ghost ults
Let it end. They obviously dont care about the community or player base anymore, it is beyond obvious they are only here for profit and to run this game into the ground. I've one starred the game on iTunes and encourage you all to do the same until we see some significant positive changes. Otherwise, this game will fail - there are numerous problems that have gone unfixed. This is make or break time while many still leave.
I recently quit so take my opinion with a grain of salt but my suggestion is don't make the yellow stars earnable by lottery/leaderboards the leaderboards should give mats to upgrade shadow king/return some of people's investment and maybe red stars The dark dimension leaderboards are always about red stars so why are yellows being blocked from players who beat 100% max difficulty? It's like saying ooooh look you can unlock the new unit if you can do well enough in trials.... But you can't 7* them unless you're a top spender and efficiency goblin. Even then you might still not make top 500 and you've wasted your time effort and money to not get a guaranteed 7* at least with character packs you know how much you have to spend to get a 7*
Honestly thank you for the MCOC ad you did recently. Convinced me to hop back on and man. What a difference in the activities available to me. Day and night compared to MSF. First month player with MSf and man is everything just stale. Flat footed and just plain boring. I log in just to keep up with my alliance. Other than that I have nothing to do.
I think AI accusation is on to something. For months now that my local language version just seems like AI translated and now about 90% of the game after certain cut off time is incomprehensible (Probably around Nightstalkers that things are a mix bag and then its down hill after that). Had I not understand English, not sure how I'd be able to still play the game at this point. So, when I see the poll images, first thing that comes to mind is AI Generated. The style just lacks cohesion that its impossible for an actual art team to do, let alone that 'big package' there (never know it coz I don't check the large image). Seems like anything they can have the AI do, they just do it, and if the result looks passable at a glance, they don't care enough to check or do anything further.
The polls always have been fishy and i only vote for the "rewards" and I usually take the coolest design. BW needs a complete overhaul. Wouldn't surprise me to see it return in summer 25. RTA is useless. CC is useless and still has hackers in it with 5 Odina and sh*t. The graphics are still off very often. The ingame currency market is out of hand. Some much dead currencies, gear stocks hitting 9999 even for some red gear for me now. Playing the game now for almost 7 years. I have high concerns even making 9 because the game will die before I will quit lol.
RNG in SK trials seems off the scale. My roster is stronger than some CC guides I've seen clear 15 and I'm struggling too clear 14 with 30-40+ resets on some nodes. Losing the will to live.
Yeah I've been playing for years (85M TCP), but think i'm gonna quit end of year. F2P is too slow and grindy for me now, feels like a job meeting my alliance needs rather than a game at this point.
Great video man 👍 I've been voting for red guardian when it comes to the shadow king Trial I can't get past the node with all the sentinels and I'm a end game player
All of these terrible changes happened very suddenly too. Ending free to play events, introducing gotcha orbs, and all of the other stuff all started within the same week. Somebody hit the "cash out" button at Scopley.
Yelena is just happy to see us.
I can tell how often players are not logging in daily by how often they give us the streak tokens.

Yep just unlocked him and left him like that

Hopefully another Marvel hero collector comes out some day that will be worth coming back to, but I don't think MSF will ever be that game.
Kinda makes sense that every single offer is crazy expensive when everybody who works on the game lives out of the United States 🤦
That dude that started only a year ago spends a insane amount of money 😂😂
I'm at a real tough spot with this game, I came back a little over a year ago and I was liking how fast I could the catch up and was able to get Xtreme Xmen up to 7RS pretty quickly but after that is when everything went downhill really fast and it took me until Octover to finally have 7RS for all of Spider Society. make it make sense how one team I was able to max out quickly, and the other was just a slog. Also the raid store, hello? its been like 6 months since Pandapool has been in there, and there's a bunch of other toons that have no need to be in there anymore. I stopped spending money on this game because I'm starting to see this game just go into a death spiral for low spenders like myself and F2P to just having a swarm of Krakens keeping this game afloat, I feel like most marvel games whether its mobile or F2P(Like Rivals just releasing) is just a cash grab profiting off the popularity of Marvel and the MCU.
It honestly feels like they're trying to get the game to be run, developed and maintained by AI and a skeleton crew.
Like they're trying to make it run on its own, be as cheap as possible and make as much as possible.
I think they might be using AI and then touching them up.
All of the characters are in a completely different style
Zoom in on Taskmaster's right side (with the sword) look at the chest plate and the arms. It's like they went in with a giant hard brush and blotched on top.
Winter Soldier looks like he's made of copy/pasted elements on top of eachother
I was stupid enough to pay money on this game and have enjoyed it but with endless dark dimensions and additional upgrade requirements I am done never spending another dime.
Quit playing these things 4 years ago, was Galaxy of Heroes before MSF, can't believe they still exist.
I lost my streak having not logged in on Saturday because I just couldn’t be bothered. Logged in on Sunday did challenges and left again because I got bored. Such is the state of the game. I remember a time when I used to panic that I wouldn’t make it in time to claim my campaign energy. Now I practically force myself to log in
At this point I think this game is beyond the point of going back to what it once was
I started playing at the beginning of 2024 and I would probably have been considered a whale. Ended up in an alliance that was Top 100 in everything, worked (spent) my way to top 200 in the Odin race, and was sitting in the Top 100 in the SK trial before I gave up on my account. I just cannot stomach supporting a company that so clearly cares so little for the customers and customer satisfaction. Every decision felt like a short term money decision, not a long term move for the game. Great community of players that all deserve better from the company. Thanks for everything MG, always enjoyed your content.
Maybe guys like you realise one day, that your spending behaviour actually does also contribute HEAVILY towgamesthe downfall of many games (bot only mobile games). Companies with the goal to make money see your brainless spending behaviour and change game designs to milk you donkeys while ruining the game for you and all the low spenders and f2p players either way.
Scopely did many wrong decisions and has the highest guilt of the current state. But boy you guys are part of the problem ffs
@ if nobody spends on the game then there is no game. Feel free to play how you want, blaming those who spend for the poor decisions of a game maker is completely misguided.
@@Andrew-Lee91 at least he contributed something instead of being a freeloader. Wouldn't even be a game if there was nobody to finance it.
@@chrishuggins2131most of the player base is f2p or light spender. If they left, no whale would wanna play, as there are no 'scrubs' to be better than. Heavy whaling is what got us to this.
@@Zenkrypt without heavy whaling, the game would have been gone long ago. Taking your frustrations with the game out on the people keeping it alive doesn’t make sense. The vast majority of whales and dolphins feel the same way about the decisions being made with the game as F2P and light spenders. Thats why so many are leaving. A mobile game that has to also pay for a Disney owned IP stands no chance without spenders to compensate for everyone else to enjoy the game. It’s typically 5% of the player base paying for the other 95%. Personally, I was happy to spend what I could afford on the game to keep it rolling when it was still a game and not just chores.
Problem with shadow king isn't how hard it is, it's how long it takes. It's a balance between us the grind and time worth it?
There’s no way to get purple iso unless you want to spend £30 a time. What’s the point of logging in if you can’t earn the things you need to progress. Even the milestones that give iso need spending. Time to give in I think.
the diference between 1st and 5000th is not event 0.1%.. how can a decent chunk of the playerbase be within the top 0.1%
The game isn’t dying. But, the next 3 months aren’t going to be easy. Somehow, I still have a lot of reasons I like playing the game. But, I think a lot of ppl are going to think twice about spending money, if for no other reason than confidence in Scopely is pretty low.
I think pulling bw was the right decision with the long term picture in mind. It’s probably going to cost Scopely a lot in the short term. Now they need to continue to make long term decisions (which I feel have been in too short of supply the last 4-5 months).
I quit about a year ago but still upvote you because you make good videos, and youre not a shill like certain others.
The four calling birds event started like 12hrs early. So that’s another hiccup.
The game has been a complete mess for ages now. I have absolutely zero care about it anymore. I only still play out of habit and partly down to some decent pulls on some new toons. Definitely on the verge of deletion
I hate logging in, I just do it so my alliance doesn’t get upset tbh. I don’t want to let go because of sunk cost fallacy, but I’m really close to dropping it entirely
Wallet is closed until they sincerely apologize, and give feasible/fair compensation
Well one of my favorite characters is Norman Osborn, so seeing as we got Red Goblin and my FAVORITE version of the guy Iron Patriot I was pretty happy
"a lot of people are able to" [spend a lot of money in one year] lmao
That intentional "mistake" They made with the monster 🐓 on yelena made me quit. I've had enough
Im not playing a game that is now subliminal trying to derange us
New characters are great, but spread it out, with all these reworks and building up of the characters. Not enough resources. Scopely was more interested in taking our money, by putting so much product out there, players can’t keep up. It’s losing the fun, and feels more like a job. Games shouldn’t be this way. It’s greed over fun. 🤦♂️ That’s too bad. I’ll stick it out until it actually is finished, but that would suck cause that’s 6 years playing everyday straight. Over 2600 days never missed a day. I miss when it was owned by Foxnext.
I agree and I don't. I can't remember a Thanksgiving that left ppl happy, and end of year has always felt more cash grabby than normal. But we have had more Game Quality issues than normal. But then typically they do give us something to look forward to, to tide us over the break.
This is exceptionally bad though this year, and with MCoC, KA, PoE2....ppl have a lot of other gaming options right now. Lastly time the game was this bad the LotR game game out, and tons of ppl went there. Luckily for MSF, LotR was a bad game.
Im still hoping for a road map, but my guess is, they'll still focus on Xavier, which we've had for nearly a year already, so that's not going to get much hype.
They may announce a level cap increase pre break, that could be good for spending endgame players, giving them something to chase. But I think that will further alienate f2p and midgame players
Seems really questionable that things will really turn around at this point.. just limping along until another game captures my interest
I quit playing a couple weeks ago. I really want to play again because it was a fun game, but Scopely has ruined it.
I've been voting ghost I remember on my first run of msf I used her dd2 and I think dd3 her ult at one point was not bad with her health steal I remember early msf getting stuck behind multiple ghost ults
What’s the point now in struggling for a bigger Shaodw King in max difficulty, given current events?
Let it end. They obviously dont care about the community or player base anymore, it is beyond obvious they are only here for profit and to run this game into the ground. I've one starred the game on iTunes and encourage you all to do the same until we see some significant positive changes. Otherwise, this game will fail - there are numerous problems that have gone unfixed. This is make or break time while many still leave.
I quit 2 weeks ago and I am glad to get my time back. I will not play another mobile game. They lost a light spender
I recently quit so take my opinion with a grain of salt but my suggestion is don't make the yellow stars earnable by lottery/leaderboards the leaderboards should give mats to upgrade shadow king/return some of people's investment and maybe red stars
The dark dimension leaderboards are always about red stars so why are yellows being blocked from players who beat 100% max difficulty?
It's like saying ooooh look you can unlock the new unit if you can do well enough in trials.... But you can't 7* them unless you're a top spender and efficiency goblin. Even then you might still not make top 500 and you've wasted your time effort and money to not get a guaranteed 7* at least with character packs you know how much you have to spend to get a 7*
Honestly thank you for the MCOC ad you did recently. Convinced me to hop back on and man. What a difference in the activities available to me. Day and night compared to MSF. First month player with MSf and man is everything just stale. Flat footed and just plain boring. I log in just to keep up with my alliance. Other than that I have nothing to do.
I think AI accusation is on to something. For months now that my local language version just seems like AI translated and now about 90% of the game after certain cut off time is incomprehensible (Probably around Nightstalkers that things are a mix bag and then its down hill after that). Had I not understand English, not sure how I'd be able to still play the game at this point.
So, when I see the poll images, first thing that comes to mind is AI Generated. The style just lacks cohesion that its impossible for an actual art team to do, let alone that 'big package' there (never know it coz I don't check the large image). Seems like anything they can have the AI do, they just do it, and if the result looks passable at a glance, they don't care enough to check or do anything further.
The astral team/SK isn't worth grinding max difficulty.
The polls always have been fishy and i only vote for the "rewards" and I usually take the coolest design.
BW needs a complete overhaul. Wouldn't surprise me to see it return in summer 25.
RTA is useless. CC is useless and still has hackers in it with 5 Odina and sh*t.
The graphics are still off very often.
The ingame currency market is out of hand. Some much dead currencies, gear stocks hitting 9999 even for some red gear for me now.
Playing the game now for almost 7 years. I have high concerns even making 9 because the game will die before I will quit lol.
Welcome to the true maintenance mode
They cranked frustration marketing to 11 and it destoyed the fan base
That was clearly a flute
RNG in SK trials seems off the scale. My roster is stronger than some CC guides I've seen clear 15 and I'm struggling too clear 14 with 30-40+ resets on some nodes. Losing the will to live.
It's all about Marvel Rivals now.
i had 15 ppl in my alliance...high spenders...didnt even do an attack on Knull this weekend
Hahaha 😂😅😂😅😂 Hilarious how easy you fixed Yelena! "Holy Moly" Hahahaha seriously though. Why would Yelena ever look that way? Ever?
Yeah I've been playing for years (85M TCP), but think i'm gonna quit end of year. F2P is too slow and grindy for me now, feels like a job meeting my alliance needs rather than a game at this point.
What happened with Professor X? I thought he was supposed to be the big character for 2024.
Yolena is packing a little extra
I was voting for Yelena but I had not looked at the whole photo. YIKES!!!!!!
A one-year player has mephisto and Odin already?!?
We'll lose people to Marvel Rivals...
I used to buy the passes but I have stopped spending. Game just isn’t fun anymore.
can't wait till they announce the game is ending so people can stop shilling for it like dorky
Way to much to upgrade , to many heroes, to many levels
I’m sure they’ll drop cmdr level 105 over the break to sleep us busy. 😢
What’s the point of even having a bigger SK? No BW, he’s slow, pretty mid, astral sucks outside of BW….
Great video man 👍 I've been voting for red guardian when it comes to the shadow king Trial I can't get past the node with all the sentinels and I'm a end game player
On max difficulty, my score is 1568 lower than the rank #1 and I'm in the 5200s
lol you could always come back to swgoh for about 70 Bucks you can get really close to Jabba
Lmao Yelena is bulging
Yelana Bulgeova
Update the stores
I haven't played in 2 months 😢 I miss it, but then again, I don't
The real disappointment is DD7 node 3 🙄
Scopely improved and then started killing the game with the shitty character releases.
Oh yeah, big time, it was a really crappy move. Are we getting compensation? Like dang, scopely come on, do better.
I’d love if they took a break and let me catch up FTP. 😂
lol they’ve never gone into their break with the game in a good plar
Still this game exists? You shall better play star rail or zenless zone zero or genshin if you wanna get constant updates and responsible studio
They will end this game soon just like they did TWD RTS not long ago. Smh
COME BACK TO SWGOH!!!!!!
This... I just wish I didn't lose my old swgoh account.
@@michaelc1839Trust me you don't 😂
I'm voting for Yelena from now on
At this point I hope the game just dies.
Because no matter what they do it will always be a timesuck waste. They will always depend on the addict Krakens to survive.
I still enjoy the game and choose to continue to play.
You could not play In you feel like that and let the people that play get on
You would miss it and all the complainers would too. There's no Marvel game like this out there.
You can just stop playing the game if you don't enjoy it anymore. What's the purpose of hoping the game to die?
Upgrade pls remove battleworld remove the new filter.
Why don't people play something else then? Raid isnt better than this nor is any other game atm imo
