ok kix this is my point of view from a "end game player " for 6 / 7 yrs bp took over from xbox on my gaming fun , for 5 yrs i had weekly vodka driven rampages , i used to flip sometimes at what you implemented but soon got over it , i used to pull ppl into the game , i used to help them develop and spent exactly zero mins on xbox ! Even the damm scourge raid i enjoyed !
you have turned a very addictive game and very enjoyable game even with its ups and downs ! into one constant chore to even log on ! i used to come home from work eat while i was playing , drink while i was playing and play when i should be sleeping :-/ even when i spent 1200 gold in a night i used to enjoy it !
current game
I dont rush back from work , i dont spend 7 or 8 hrs hitting bases , i don't check my base at work , i don't recommend ppl to play , i dont rampage for hours and when i log on the first thought is " what have kix screwed up today "
That must tell you something !
playing for fun , not for a 2nd job !

i used to get a reply within a matter of hrs every time , now if im lucky enough not to get a so called expert who couldnt tell a bow to astern of a ship never mind a game ! i am lucky to get a reply within a week !
i send a ticket before a post on the forums of a glitch with a target or event i now get a reply of " issue has been fixed one , 2 maybe 3 days later or maybe a week no compensation no nothing ! not even a sorry
everything gets old after a while.

I'm sure there are other games out there that provide a similar experience, but I really don't feel like starting over somewhere at Level 1. It's a shame to leave behind years of work, plus the satisfaction of (mostly) understanding a massively complex game.
I play to stay moderately active, hanging around to see what they do with the HTML5 version. Things in this version are nerfed stupidly fast, don't see any point to pushing to get new stuff when it'll be obsolete in less than a month. I'm not optimistic the HTML5 version will be an about-face from this debacle, but one never knows.
But what I do know is that they've killed any fun factor this version of the game used to have.
Meaning kix did a great job. U still playing and whining. Most ppl already quit.. Lmao
and we had a lot of fun. Now all my mates have dropped off and I am not far behind them.
Putting up with Kixeyes lack of communication and straight out lies has got to much for me
I am amazed at how much people are not allowed to have an opinion on here. I have been here since the game began practically. I play for a while, and quit. Then for some stupid reason, come back. I like the game... I used to love the game... But... It has become too much of a chore to keep up and the cost to do so has significantly increased. The last raid series and this one are the best Kixeye has produced in a long time.
Wish the mods would remove the troll posts like they’re supposed to : (. Dude had a valid point and it resonates entirely with me I’m in the same boat. Borts post is not cool. Condescending fan boy attitude.
the 4 hour dock repair that only started from when you logged in was how it worked for years.
pvp repairs were over a day. if you failed a base attack as a non-coiner, you literally had to wait over a day to try again. as a coiner you paid 48 coins.
build times were 20 days for a single ship for a long time, with no tokens available. even a seawolf was hitting 10 days. these days as an example last month i built 6 ships.
even ships moved at 1/5th of the speed they move at now.
if the game was still like all that, it would have died years ago.
