Using the elevator as much as you want is weird, but is also great. I feel so uncomfortable teleporting all over the place like a mad man and riding the elevator freely. How does this all work perfectly when it comes to OOO's profits? In fact, past players and new players will just grind 24/7 and win with ease. If they want CE (Now just Energy?) they will use their profits to make a happy market trade. (I think Energy prices dropped.) Knights can now simply stack up on crowns and Energy. An Orb can even be found in the clockworks. The only thing people will pay $ for now is probably for extras like Crimson Hammer Mission, so they can steal from the Serious Seerus without asking. The $5 you'd use to buy Energy is now used to buy worthless Alcohol. People will only pay money for missions or to separate an account from another. Everything looks sweet doesn't it Nick? Wait! You have Forge which is just there to annoy you. This forging stuff gets worst for higher star gear. There are benefits out of forging though, but those with Karma behind them fail miserably. Oh! CE and MY MIST merge to become one powerful form of energy. Don't be fools! That is CE in disguise! Let me put it this way...... When it comes to crafting a specific star item let's say those orbs are CE. 3 Advanced Orbs is 200 CE in disguise. In the past you could use regenerating mist to cut the CE cost in half. Now you pay full CE Cost with mist Gone! Get it? Now we use hard to get CE to open energy gates, wake up lazy Mecha bots, contribute to Krogmo's games for a prize, and charge up cool energy cannons. Plus, those gates containing treasure boxes are so tempting, but might have very little to offer.

I have proof here! Also.......... The 3 CE gates are in the same treasure vault.

They did this in treasure vault! At times Graveyards and Undead/Fiend Arenas are better!

Here are two different cannons I found in a Jelly Farm Battle Garden.

Sk is changing. Nick has evil things in mind. These are just signs. Things in life will never be easy. F2P depression WILL return.

Those have always been there.

@OP

Those have always been there, they've just been left in the dust by the removal of mist. Hopefully they'll be removed (lazy, terrible solution) or reworked to use something else of value. Like crowns. Or fire crystals.

@Warp-Master

I know, but with mist gone you waist a lot of energy that doesn't return unless bought/traded.

Also

Focus more on the new heating and crafting system. Think about mist being removed and everything! How will OOO profit like this? I bet they were making more money before! Nick will do something! He had a tough system set up before!

edit: limitless grinding is Yours!

I don't see how OOO is not profiting yet. If not better, OOO is making more buck than before.

What tipped you off?

Was it the Forge? Cause if it wasn't the Forge that tipped you off thinking that SK is going to get worse, then there is clearly something wrong with you.

Projections

Dropping mist from the game was a huge change and I am sure OOO did not do it without a lot of thought and statistics to back it up. Their projections must show that they will still be able to make a profit on the game or they never would have done it.

@Cirnothebaka

Well............. I might be wrong, but things are so good it feels like a dream!

Any past players here? I feel like I'm the only one.

I've been inactive for two years.

And now I'm waging war against the Forge menace.

@Cirnothebaka

I started playing in 2012. I've been inactive for about four months. When I came back in August everything was so different. It's like I forgot when I started playing :(

P.S. Maybe I've been inactive for 10 months because of school and trying to stay in the 80s and 90s.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

@Spinex
I started playing during...
THE BETA! XD

But I don't play that often so I still don't have all my fancy stufs that I want to get.

Fun fact: The fun fact I was about to give would have been derailing, so I won't talk about it.

Well, I find the forge ANNOYING, but not HORRID. I just wish you didn't have to fully level stuff all the stinkin' way to get it to be 5*. That's a pain! >_<

EDIT: Also, keep in mind that boxes are far far far far far far FAR more valuable now, because, in Elite mode, they usually contain rarities. In T3, getting 50 fire crystals through energy gates still costs much less than buying directly off the supply depot.

You still use the 3CE 3CR for danger rooms.
