UPDATE The Great Dorm Tower Update

After Halloween? Genuinely eat 💩

 

I think ata up to something fishy, rollout of dorm update now going into end of October, from.past years during BF weekend new dorms and mates roll out. I love surprises but give a hint🤣

 

Lmao bro be fr no mames. Yall just messed up admit it that yall estimated the time wrong. Makes no sense it will be done by Halloween? Sure people can update but now people are losing tutors and etc. Cause they aren’t gonna be making the same amount of money as players that got the update. Sure we can update but for people on the old system it’s more than the current one. We will have to use hella dns and etc just to open more dorms and upgrade 🧍

 

Ban me or whatever idgaf atp, what the actual hell? Y’all really don’t give a flying 💩 about your player base, don’t you? The entire ATA Team can go rot in hell with the Cheeto man🇺🇸. ATP, y’all are doing this on purpose cause ain’t no way you don’t know what’s going on in game, tuts getting stolen left and right, some are even making tuts super OP that people can’t even hire back.
Hope both sides of your pillows are warm 🤡

 

Why do y think we can't math? How u can think we believe it would be the same for us if we don't have the update? THE PLUNDER IS TOTAL DIFFERENT BETWEEN A 50MCS AND A 300MCS PLAYER.

And I don't think u will keep saved how many hits we will do during ata weekend and refund us all the plunder is missing once we will get the refund.

As a developer myself if I release a thing like u are doing I would fire immediately.
I mean especially now that we can have the help of ai, it's kinda unbelievable what is happening.

 

Being told that I may be receiving my update another month from now that gives other players another month to take advantage of the update makes me want to quit this game for the simple fact of how horribly this is handled. You guys are taking the fun out of this game.

Should’ve never announced, should’ve released it to some “beta testers” or yourself and you certainly shouldn’t have released it to a single player until the entire player base receives it. Unless there’s something paying for the wait it’s unfair to go so long without it.

Why would anyone blow money on a game that is giving other players the opportunity to make more this weekend because of their updated dorm towe? While some of us is still utilizing the old outdated plunder that’s giving alt. 🏃🏽 🚪

 

We really gonna receive GTA VI before The Great Dorm Tower Update 😪

 

If beta testing was properly done, why are we still seeing delays of up to 3 months? Beta testing should cover players across different stats, account ages, progression levels and playstyles. If the sample isn’t sufficient, add more testers.

Once UAT is actually stable, roll it out over a week or two—not months of rollout, followed by delays.

Right now, this feels less like a controlled rollout and more like players are being used as the testers.

Might as well not do any beta testing 😂

 

I truly hope that players who have not received the update actually boycott the game and stop spending until the update is rolled out for everyone.

I cannot stress enough how much of a slap in the face it is to have developers pump out as many exploitive cash grabs as they can for ATA day while also apparently having no competent people working on an update YOU announced in July.

“Just keep upgrading like normal and you have a chance to get an edge when the update comes…, maybe sometime in your life, lol!!!” Or whatever. Yeah let me upgrade when an upgrade costs several T, provides no significant stat increase. Oh wait let me open a dorm for several T as well so I can put in the most bottom tier dormmate and again experience no significant stat increase. OHHHH… wait… I actually can’t do that because my tuts grew 3x their sizes and I would really love to keep them so I can get my max plunder but I can’t because some new player who started around the time you announced the update is already above my stats.

Clearly the opinions of your player base does not matter to you, but our money does. We are nothing but dollar signs to you. You continue to disrespect us and spit in our faces. If this wasn’t some obscure App Store game, then your treatment of your player base would be gathering so much attention. ✌🏼

 

I also do not care if I’m beating a dead horse by repeating how dissatisfied I am over and over on this thread. These are the messages that you should reference in your time capsule for next year. This is the criticism that you should ACTUALLY look into in a prompt and effective manner.

I don’t want to see a Walgreens receipt post about how great the game is next year. I want to see results and a developer team that cares about the player base. Like someone said above, if this was my job and I had this poorly of a response, I would be let go immediately.

It just doesn’t make sense for the team behind this to risk the dissatisfaction of their biggest players, most of which have played for years and are the highest spenders. And to also put them at a handicap for the foreseeable future because let’s be honest, you’ll make more excuses and it won’t be done by Halloween. Is this just an excuse to get us to spend more money to try to compete with new accounts? It’s starting to feel like that.

 

I would like to agree with the person who said it feels like WE are being used to test this update.

Why did you have BETA testers when it seems it didn’t matter anyways?

I’ve had that question ever since the first delay happened. I understand not everything will be perfect and there is going to be hiccups. But this update seems to be nothing but hiccups,

BETA testers, I would think, typically help you gauge what type of problems and/or good things come from an update before you release it to everyone, yes?

They volunteer their time to tell you what is good and what needs improvement, right? If so, I’m glad I didn’t volunteer myself to be a BETA tester atp even tho I thought about it bc I would feel insulted and like my time/input was wasted and ignored.

Did you even listen to the ppl who volunteered? Did you have enough testers? Perhaps more time should have gone into testing and THEN the update should have been announced after most of the obvious bugs were throughly worked out?

I’m genuinely confused by the devs’ decisions here and why instead of releasing a competent update over the course of a week or two, they went…this route.

 

You know usually when u work in the IT field you should also have a testing team that you pay. I understand make beta tester between players as well cause we can test it using another pov (a developer shouldn't never test his own work alone) but, on the other side, they should also have someone testing the technical part. I have the feeling they updated manually for each beta tester their dorm and now the autoupdate for everyone is giving troubles/bugs cause it wasn't really tested

 

Wow, yall actually managed to make the balance even worse than before, for an extended period, and promote unfair advantages for some players.

I will not be participating in this promo event. I know some may believe that some rewards are better than none, but I can not support the blatant unfair advantage by giving you money for this.

 

This is not what i expect from a game that's been around for over a decade.

 

Y'all really don't understand how pissed off people are at this situation, clearly. If you think telling us "your ata day gains won't go to waste" Oh, but our dns and time will. Players who have played for longer and struggled with the current terrible (reward wise) dorm tower, who have spent over those years. Will have a disadvantage against someone who got the update and tripled their stats. I suspect y'all are aware of that and don't want to do anything about it because you expect to make more money from pre update players buying dns. What a terrible disrespectful response, thanks again for nothing ata. ❤️
