I will keep playing and enjoy the update. even tho our hard work in the game for last few months means nothing for NG. ...BUT i WILL NOT spend any $$ for bundles nor Gears...ever...and The UPDATE better have 1000 free phones.
I told you be careful what you wish for. We ask for fixes to hero token dilution and NG heard us but they don't understand. Instead of fixing hero token dilution they saw it as an opportunity to make more money by adding more heroes and new traits so they can sell more fixes to the problems instead of fixing the problems with solutions that don't entail players spending money.
@xbamfx. I haven't bought any equipment either solely because of the obsolescence factor. I think NG is killing a revenue stream with them. Until they do something like allowing us to upgrade three or so times beyond the current three upgrades so they are worth the purchase or drop the prices considerably, I just don't see a value in them enough to purchase any.
New Missions & Heroes New Missions are always more than welcome. More Heroes only if they are useful (not like most of the existing ones).
New Traits for Survivors and Equipment
Survivor Traits • Revenge: could be useful in close maps (like Archive). Let’s give it a try • Ruthless: more power is always welcome • Punish: could be useful in close maps (like Archive). Let’s give it a try Equipment Traits • Ruthless: see above • Incendiary Bullets: Could be reason for a new strategy if dealing with massive amount of walker with high lvl. Let’s give it try (even I did not use that kind of strategy with that assault weapon so far because damage of them is much lower than riffles).
Council Level 21 • less healing time is always appreciated • more gas is always great • at least something to work on (if you don’t have a real life). Starting RSL for challenges will still be the same, so no need to worry to upgrade?! (Don’t know if I like it at the moment). • LVL 25 equip. = see above • Level 22 equip. in TG Shop or Challenge rewards are useful once you decided to upgrade your survivor to LVL 22, so no need to hurry. - Rare, Epic, and Legendary Gear Crates will guarantee level 22 equipment for players at camp level 63 = good point!
New Radio Call - Platinum! • guaranteed Heroes are good • Minimum 32 or more hero tokens are good • Epic and Legendary Survivors, and Epic [128] or Legendary [256] Hero Token results are possible with this call. • costs 25 radio phones = fits costs at all for calls (but I still think it’s to expensive)
Trade Goods Shop Hero Tokens Repeat Purchases You promised more ways to find hero token and with this you did it. Thanks. I’m sure I’ll use it time by time.
New Shop Interface Like Barney Stinson (HImym) always points out: new is always better.
Bugs and Improvements Always appreciated. But there are so many bugs still out there, which need to be fix (don’t mention them here because you know them from following the forum).
So, for the moment I sit back and see what will happen once the update is running. I will upgrade hospital and mission car for their benefit first and do not rush for the council upgrade. Since the cost for the last building upgrades were already ridiculous high I expect them to be about 8 mio supplies for car and hospital and 15 mio for council, training grounds and workshop.
I’m disappointed that it is still not possible to replay the story missions (even for low revenue). What about the rewards for the equip. scavenge missions? They still suck. Why not fix the AI? There is more the player base was hoping to be fixed which I don’t recall at the moment.
I have to admit that NG came up with some unexpected (at least for myself) points and I’m quite neutral to see how they will work in practice.
So... upgrading to level 21 if you play challenges still doesn't make any sense at all since starting RSL of 21 and 22 will be the same. You will want to move directly up to 22.
And I just got my level 24 gear ready but leveling up to level 21 is pointless now. So I wasted a ton of time on useless gear.
Are you sure you've really thought that through?

Morbid Survivors are looking for you! If you are looking for a new guild, PM me.
For me there is nothing anyone from NG can say that will convince me that the owners and investors of NG are not greedy. I feel sorry for the employees of NG because they have to start considering that the long term viability of NG is in serious jeopardy because as consumers you can only screw us over so many times before the negative sentiment turns into real monitory losses. If you bleed your customers too much which NG is doing there will be no customer left to bleed later.
Yeah, as if I'd want to set RSL+5 walkers on fire...
New survivor traits might be useful, but who is going to scrap their pinkies for that (or will want to upgrade a new set of survivors)? If we would get a sixth trait and get them on top of what we have, fine. Other than that it might be interesting for my 2nd account but for my main? Not so sure about that...

For player with lvl 20 survivor I agree. But I have lvl 21's and for me it's reasonable to upgrade soon because the start RSL will remain but I will go further/easier with lvl22 (and of course lvl 25 equip.) .... at least that is the assuming theory.
@Shut_Up unfortunately all mobile games have a life cycle and this one has entered its death spiral because they all copy one another, problems and all. They will keep adding some stuff until the revenue gets closer to the costs. We the players hate it because we play it with friends and passion and see all of the unrealized potential and want it to last forever. Don't worry about NG, they have committed to their investors one or two new games a year starting in 2018. If NG is like other game companies, that means resources will get gradually sucked off this one and put on those because new game revenue tends to be better than mature game revenue. Hopefully NG breaks the mold as there is a huge amount of potential here but I won't hold my breath and will enjoy playing with my guild mates as long as possible before moving on to something else.
Rule 1 of business ethics, at least trying to approach transparency when dealing with your clients @Teeceezy . So glad the the new topic (first raised in 2016) about maxed supplies has been on your guy's list of issues to resolve. #disgraceful.
As for the new traits, will our current survivors have a chance to aquire them? If not, you have earned another casual player as far as I am concerned. I spent too much time getting to 3 pink to scrap them.
You guys did do some nice improvements as well though. However, given the current state of things I am going to pull back a bit. You earned another casual player just based on the traits unless you guys "pivot" otherwise.

Exactly what I meant. Having level 21 survivors is absolutely pointless (if you don't have them already, that is). With the same starting RSL for challenges, you can skip level 21. And even level 22s with level 24 gear should do better than level 21s with the same gear.
Only thing that might hold people back is XP and upgrading times so they will be forced to play with level 21s for a bit (unless they pay).
Or am I missing something here?

The platinum calls sound great but at 32 tokens for 25 phones, the return based on tokens per call is absolutely horrible. Granted, the average will rise based on leg and epic. If the drop rate for leg and epic is the same as 15 calls, you are looking at about 3 tokens per call which is better than the roughly 1.7 for 10 calls but not close to the 5+ for 15s. The guaranteed hero is nice but with no visibility on true rates for which heroes coming up and their rare/epic/leg percentages, not real interested in this, especially as you have all 20 heroes in the mix unlike the hero of the day tokens.
Now, if this had been a three week "special" event for 15 phones with each day a different hero, I know I would have a different opinion but in the current form just smells as a sucker bet to entice folks into purchasing phones.
Cool update.. but so far I've upgraded only 2 gear to lvl 24 and few survivors to lvl 21... and now we have another council lol.
Of course money spending players will be happy

I am glad someone is speaking to us on this issue because god knows if we wait on you guys the apocalypse may be over.

Not a problem, just contact AppStore/Google and say that the developers has changed the value of your purchase. In AppStore you can get help with purchases made in the last 90 days. Happy refund day
Survivor Traits • Revenge: could be useful in close maps (like Archive). Let’s give it a try
I think you might not be interpreting this trait correctly. Revenge is NOT the same as Retaliate. I think Revenge only activates when hit by a ranged attack (e.g., freeman or outpost defender), not when hit by a melee attack.

Since the last update it was clear that there are new council upgrades were coming in future updates.
New content is always great.
Add new heroes. Personally I don't like that.
Add new survivor traits. I really hate that. What's with our survivors? We put really much effort, time, maybe money on them - and now? It took nearly one year to get three characters to eight stars. Start from scratch?
New gear traits. I test it out. Not much of a problem like the survivor traits.
Bug fixes. Great.
I will give 2.6 a try, but I think the graveyard of departed players will grow.
I just purchased a couple of level 21 weapons in the last month and now NG you roll out level 22!
You usually don't do this so soon after an update.
Unless you provide an alternative to upgrade purchased gear I for one will not buy anymore.
Come on NG you can do better in this catagory.
