We are destroying this game

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by BeardedOyster, Sep 2, 2014.

  1. I've been in beta wars with people my stats who've announced at the start 'this is my first war, what do i do'. Added with those who join then do nothing, those who take dv from friends on the other side to be a cow and those who join just to get items and there's ok sense of wanting to win most of the time.

    Trying to organise an actual war is almost impossible. If you can actually find anyone willing to stop cat partying for a while, ata come out with their weekly hunt and mess it up
     
  2. ATA does these updates to increase their playerbase, thereby possibly increasing their overall revenue.

    Not everyone likes to play PvP with all the system or off-system wars so players think it's their choice to join one or not or they end up feeling victimized if they get strip/farmed.

    ATA forgot/chose not to increase their appeal to those players who love to tap that Fight button. Which is unfair and if this continues, would end with ATA losing market. And these are the players who are loyal to playing this game for n years.

    I am more of a party-player really. If I had joined this game back then I'd have quit soon enough. As Cow has said, most people just upgrade and build tb for the sake of having high base stats and tb itself. Others may view it as 'you did it for nothing'.

    These different viewpoints shouldn't be forced against other people especially when it's ATA itself that needs to do the changing to submit to the demands (or at least somehow satisfy) of the playerbase.
     
  3. I have an idea haha what if the game had events for hitting the battle list? And you got triple payout and stuff? That way your mixing partiers with battlers? Idk its just a thought i wanted to throw out there:)
     
  4. ATA should make a duplicate game, but without any parties, and call it War in my Dorm, and allow everyone who prefers war over parties to transfer their account. Then we can leave all the partiers here with their beloved cat cafe :D
     
  5. no one destroying this game
     
  6. I think this thread is well thought out. Ive always told my wifey, friends. Tuts play ur game so u dont ger bored. Now partiers hit partys alot enjoy just hittint cc n building that way. Others enjoy sfarming n the excitement that they feel while doin it. Others luv war n the suspense n nail biting excitement wen its a super close war. Its all part of the game.
    As for me i love all aspects of the game but i do get bored at times lol.
    For possible solutions for barcodes n farmers to once again enjoy pimd like they say they used to. Ata needs to equalize payouts across the board whether it be bl. Wars. And farmin (actives as well as inactives) ive seen good ideas such as items that increase war/farming payouts these items could even be drops from partys even rare drops. Making partys beneficial for farmers as much as for party faries. Also increasing war payout i think is super important. I luv war even betas are a challenge with inactives. But i hardly make money compared to cc.
    Anyways thats my story n im sticking to it lol
    that is all

  7. I really enjoy club wars they were amazing, but I think the issue is not devs doing something to change the game, I think the main issue is no club loyalty everyone is in it for themselves by running to a b2b cc club when they get a cat drop or buying a cat instead of using it in there hc.but cc and ppa have added to help us as a community by adding a mass amount of money to the game that we all loved but like a drug addict we abuse it. As a community the answer is to join a club you love and help your club grow and stop this bs of cc clubs that know one is ever loyal to the club. Most real clubs are not afraid to war and will do all party's. In my opinion bringing club loyalty back is the solution.

    Ps sorry for grammar and spelling
     
  8. I personally just wanna party. Not a big fan on wars. Wasn't here when it was all about the wars. Don't really understand the war part in this game since it's basically about college. If there are places out in the world that have college based on wars I would really like to know. College is about partying so I guess ata saw that as to why the made all the changes.
     
  9. I enjoy parties over farming and wars myself, simply because I've just never been fond of pvp. I understand why the hardcore farmers and War lovers are upset though, as their favorite way to play is becoming absolete. You can deny it all you want, but ata's attention to parties is slowly sucking all the fun out of pvp.

    The solution, in my opinion, so that everyone can play how they want is to 1) even out the money earned from each, and 2) allow players to opt out of pvp. What this would be is an option on your profile that disabled pvp. No one would be able to hit you, but you also couldn't hit anyone else. It would essentially put partiers in their own little bubble.

    If you put new players on a 3 day or so no pvp restriction, then they'd be eager to participate once time ran out and pvp centric players would have people to farm.
     
  10. Another boring thread omg
     
  11. I enjoyed reading all of these responses! Here's my two cents

    I'm a war lover but if you look at the ongoing wars I see two or three at the most it's depressing beta wars suck, you see so many high stat players not knowing how to report or even knowing how to buy pots, it's too easy to get strong from cc and personally I think wars should start paying more bc parties have been paying way more for too long

    Just because I like wars doesn't mean I like farming for no reason or anything of that nature. Wars bring clubs together it forces them to work together or just fail and about the no loyalty to club thing, whoever said that is exactly right, it plays a big part with the cat party issues

    I take it that I'm rambling so I'm gonna stop 
     
  12. Waiting for ata to respond...
     
  13. All I know is it's about time for ATA to shut the game down.
     
  14. They're not going to shut it down, they're making too much money.
     
  15. What are you basing that on Elle? 2 of their 4 main games just shut down. They seem to need to push us to buy more hypnocats faster than ever before. Those are signs of trouble.

    Then they are giving us recycled ideas. Catvengers was the exact same thing as the beach party weekend a MONTH ago. This hunt is exact same as the Easter egg hunt.

    Sounds like trouble in ATA land to me
