Re: Current state of the game

Ayyy I see my boy Jenoss makin a dank ass thread, wanted to make one but I thought the forum was dead already.

I totally agree, this type of repetitive ladder milks the fook out of you in order to be on a certain tier, I dont really give a damn about rankings tho. I aint spending hundreds of gems just to get a fkin *5 rune tix that prolly will give u fk all.

Not only that, this shit is way too repetitive, we've been having these kind of events for like what? 3 months? Since aaria or whatever girl knight.

And I spent way too much on this game already, I cant fkin leave the game, though I've seen a lot of whales dropped this game since like last month.

I even havent seen the people that raged on my first thread anymore since then on the forum.

>Wake up in the morning, open VF do dailies, log out

And I dont even bother playing VF again even when I can on that day.

This game might have a unique aura system, but if I see no change in the next 2 months, Im out, there are a ton of other games out there that deserves support.

Fkin devs need to fkin read this thread.

Where are those knights that always defended this game? "U go other game, same thing, some even no event, u dont like just quit"

WE HAVENT GOT ANYTHING NEW GAMEPLAY WISE, A LITTLE BIT NERFS AND FIXES BUT THAT'S IT GODDAMMIT.

Hello guys,

We hear your voices about the current drab event, and the dev team agree as well. We are just into our 3rd month of launch, hence we might make some unpopular decisions. But we will learn from collecting all your feedback!

About the future content we are preparing, other than upcoming Lunar New Year event where a new mechanic will be introduced, we are also confirming details for a developer post to showcase our upcoming roadmap/ new content currently being cooked up in the studio.

We have stuff planned until late this year, so do not worry, and we will share more information within a couple of weeks :)

IMO, you guys should post the teaser on Facebook too instead of only Instagram. That way more ppl will get the hype :D
as a player who don't use instagram, I agree :lol:

My dear HungryPanda,

It's not about what you've done. There's a reason why your "teasers" have escaped the views of your players.

They lack prominence, are not enticing and do nothing to push the current crop of players harder in the game. It's not that you haven't done these things, it's that they lack conviction and do not relate well to the current player pool. 

Edit:

Take for example your instagram posts: you have 900 followers, with about 1/3 actively following your content. 
However, your main teasers are all there on XIIBraves insta page. You show us pictures of ang baos, new heroes et al.
What about your 100k followers VF FB page? It doesn't make any sense at all.

How would you want us to communicate better? Any suggestion will do :)
It doesn't have to always be talking directly to the playerbase, it can be in other forms. Like a stream, live or not.
This is the best sample I can think of,
Warframe makes a weekly 1-hr long devstreams. They tease players of new upcoming contents and stuff that are WIP. This keeps the players engaged, hyped AND prepared thus keeping their interest for the game intact. It also serves as a warning for some things like major changes or upcoming nerfs.


Warframe has been successful for so long, I know it's a PC game and has a way different genre but it doesn't hurt to learn from them in certain ways.

To add on Mikan's comment, from the games I've played I like the teaser style of FFXIV's Letter from the Producer LIVE stream and their developer's blog.

I understand that events of valiant force require a lot of preparation, but many other gatcha games, have weekly update with new heroes.
Even if they don't have the massive event update (That usually is on every new month) having weekly update make the community more excited.

You have things to talk in the forum, on the social pages and intersting news over each week.


Right now the social pages (unofficial ones) has only gatcha screenshot of lucky or bad luck pools. That's all.
No one has to say anything about the game, because the topics like always burn out on the first 3 days, and on the end of them, well the events its pretty done and became just a repeat button farm "all the way". 

What makes people feel fresh about the game is constant updates, even if small ones.
Facebook page that share info about NEW feature
Facebook page that ask opinion of FUTURE feature
Facebook page that show some PREVIEW of future patch
Facebook page that show PREVIEW of next hero.

Video update everymonth that show devs talking about "what's next we are working on"


That's what people want, and we don't have.

Hi all,

When comparing us with studios with around 100 staff, we would like to highlight that with around 25 staff, we are doing our best we can to keep everyone updated and also to make new content for the game :)

We are aiming to eventually be able to do more as we grow, and definitely do what the other big studios are doing :)

That said, we will still continue with our daily posts, and also new info about the next updates whenever we can :)

Stay tuned for the Lunar New Year update details we will be sharing over the next week ;)

Well compared to IG, it's a bit late and no character teaser like the Upcoming CNY Ingame Costume posted on IG :X
