@Teeceezy Survivor level 22 will be okay with everyone if NG give us an option to upgrade our purchased weapons only to lvl 24 to 25. Otherwise it will be a really really big money waste. Any one will not buy another weapon bundle. Because after another 6 months another update will come with lvl 23 survivors.
@teeceezy. Update notes are much better than 2.5 and other previous ones. Thank you for not being cryptic and forcing us to discover all of that after the update comes out,
As for the council upgrade, can't believe this is a surprise or shock to anyone. It was hinted at in the building menu along with the max upgrade statements on some structures. Factor in the tweaking to walker health/damage to allow for higher survivor progression, we have more grinds to go. At least we can spend cans on something now. Just because we can upgrade survivors, doesn't mean we have too. I probably won't bother until camp is done and have a decent set of gear for all my survivors.
Great to see a list of bug fixes but that is tempered with the list of issues with Freeman that aren't fixed, especially since NG keeps putting them in challenges knowing it is broke.
It would be great if you guys would at least give us some feedback on how you will address the hero tokens, if it's in the plans for 2.7 or what, since it wasn't in this one. You guys can't keep ignoring this issue that is the topic of many threads. The two hero token changes you mentioned feel like it is a start but there is more coming, especially since you said new "heroes" and not "hero" and we have only one empty slot currently.
This is honest criticism so dont roll your toxic buzzwards out if you cant stand the heat stay out the kitchen.
Nothing in this update benefits the player.
1) New Miissons and Heroes New story missions always welcome but more hero dilution yay!
2) Further traits dilution Theres already too many, and you add more so people get undesirable combinations and spend more to try and try again.
3) Council level 21 money grab, way way to soon like by 6 months-9 months just done so you can sell all the same stuff to us again.
4) radio call, 25 radios for a guranteed 32 hero err no, 15 call still best value and its only available for 2 weeks.
Totally poor return for the cost 15 calls still represent better value as for 5 radio more you can have two bites of the cherry. Again done to sell radio bundles and to be reeled out every now and then to do the same.
5) TG shop, well they just monetised it, well done.
6) Shop interface, you made selling us stuff prettier, why thank you.
This update does not have one player benefit other than new missions.
@Teeceezy Is there any reason as to why the platinum call is only active for two weeks? I think it is a great addition to the existing radio call options, but for 25 radio per platinum call, I don't see myself making much of them, as I have to collect a few radios!
@Teeceezy imo to enjoy new survivors traits you have to add a sixth trait to old survivors like when we got a 5th trait into a previous update...
"Always be yourself unless you can be a capybara. Then always be a capybara". --> Do you need a guild? ...send me a Private Message. My Recruiting den and my "Art Objects" in the Next Games Collection.

Stories don't increase their revenue. Simple logic answer. Increase survivor levels and others brings buckload of cash for them.
Platinum call is for 2 weeks after update release.

They need time to review whether or not this will:
1) sell more radio bundles.
2) have too great a payout and need to be nerfed.
Where is the so wanted and new capybara hero with gnawing trait??

@FortTorino Platinum call is not active just for 2 weeks. They will be active in 2 weeks after 2.6 release ;p It is not going to get pushed right away with the update. We will have to wait 2 weeks for the 4th radio call option
The updates notes clearly say
This call will be available for two weeks after the release of the Update.
So the platinum call will give more or less what the gold call should give (and gave in the past...) for just 25 phones? I guess this comes together with a gold call nerf...right?
And what about a raised phone drop rate? Did I miss it in the notes?
@Teeceezy Unless we get the ability to reroll survivor traits, there is no way I will invest anything else in this game. Personally I only have 1 survior of each class that i spend tokens on and the rest are saturated heros.
@Terminates that is not at all how it is worded in the announcement. It says "will be available FOR 2 weeks after the update".
If your info is correct, it should just say "will be available 2 weeks after the update".

> So, after rereading the update notes, I noticed I didn't see anything about a permanent solution to maxed supplies. Wasn't that supposed to be part of 2.6?
Maybe the permanent solutions is there. We will get a council update every two months from now on. Tomato problem fixed!
@paintbeast Oh youre right! Why would they mention that platinum call if it's only available for 2 weeks? Sounds more like an event to me

For those considering equipment purchases, look at the building menu at the tents that say "22". Expect this council upgrade update in 2.7 in 2 to 3 months. Only way NG will address equipment obsolescence is you guys stop buying them. Plan on more council upgrades every couple of months after 2.7. If you want it changed, just don't buy them. Continuing to buy them and then complaining about it will not change it, only a revenue drop will.
So @Teeceezy what NG is telling me at this point is this: It is silly to spend any more $$ on the game Survivors that i have paid real money to upgrade have no chance to to see these new traits If i go from being pay to play to free to play i might as well just start a new account
@Warlord I Haven't bought a single weapon bundle, I was tempted but didn't bite. I don't really see the point if 3 months later it's not the strongest available. I don't mind spending money on the game and have in the past I understand it's a business but there has to be some "bang for your buck" mentality present. I'll consider maybe phones in the future If the call is worth it or I'll just whither away and this game will die out like the many others I've played in the past.
This update is already sounding like hard work firstly they're basically forcing me give up my own personal end game of lvl 20's if I want to compete with my guild and just the thought of grinding the f*ck away to reach lvl 22 survivors and gear just demoralizes me. Adding more traits that aren't fantastic but aren't bad either, not to mention the platinum call (in my opinion one of the great things of the update other than bug fixes) but the drop rates of radios (now we know why they were dropped) are so low now it will take 2 full days of playing to get the extra 10 radios to do it. I think I'm at a crossroads with this game

Why no new story missions?

So your wrong or the update note is wrong.
And what about a raised phone drop rate? Did I miss it in the notes?
If your info is correct, it should just say "will be available 2 weeks after the update".
Probably making a video!
