Re: New patch for whales?

Thu Feb 02, 2017 6:04 pm

Take a look at all this options as a F2P and a P2W, A F2P can get to the stage where he has the perfect or near perfect gear and hero perhaps in a few months or a year maybe. a blue whale might perhaps just take a day or 2 to reach the same result.
well, the whale get what they pay for. whats the problem ? you expect people who pay to have same progress with people who F2P ?
They do benefit, but if there are no benefits, who would become whales and help the dev team to develop more content?
A veteran, well-developed in-app purchase game looks to level the playing field between small-time/f2p players and small-time whales such that only the colossal whales get the edge to rise above the rest, instead of amplifying the disparity between the f2p and the whale-wannabes with the edge provided by the valianite system.
Go to other "fairer" games? I came from games such as Summoners War and Seven Knights, they are not anything better.

Btw this game is not one of those "Veteran well-developed in-app purchase game". VF is still young and developing.  I dunno about you, but my newbie friends managed to progress through this game just fine. Some of them started playing 2 months after me and they managed to chase me all the way to Master tier at arena while clearing all trials during current event. Nobody complained about this patch. We also played several games such as Seven Knights, Brave Frontier and FF Brave Exvius. Boy, they got worse P2P aspect than VF :D

So i don't see any problem with P2P getting more than F2P, they deserved it.

Seen the load of generous gifts 7K has been dishing out? Those mega whales spent over ten thousand and committed thousands of hours to perfect those weapons, PVP weapons that needed grinding. Clearly, you still can't distinguish between strength arising from effort and that from pure cash.

There are so many ways to get good gears in VF. Yes, prestige is one way, there is still summoning, crafting and also heirloom items. The game is just starting out, why compare it with a game with 100 ppl developing it and several years-old  :lol:
