After 4 years, without much pve content, without any kind of pvp content and promotions only to enrich to OOO SK confirmed that this bleeding to death.

The Guild The Jempire retired with almost all major and Aurum is in the same way, just because GVG players playing the lockdown is already so repetitive as the PVE

We are tired of sending suggestions and none of the years we have been asking the players to pvp are implemented.

Personally I am already looking for another game, if anyone want to join and provide any suggestions you all know my name, send a private message

erm...

SK doesn't orbit around LD.

Is this an early April fools joke?

Edit: you should play Hawken. That looks epic! A lot of PvP action there.

Well I doubt pve bothers you.

Well I doubt pve bothers you. You make such awesome pvp vids I watch them all. I think you just added it in to distract our attention from the real purpose of this thread. Basically add/improve on pvp only. Btw. Please don't go. The only really good ld matches come from your vids.

Edit: you ninja'd me. Nice XD. You must have V.HIGH ASI :)

Uh oh!

Jempire is less active and PvP hasn't changed! I guess Spiral Knights is dead!

And look! I'm only getting the same reward after farming FSC over and over and over and over and over and over again! Spiral Knights is dead!

I think it's just going to become a thing where every month, a bunch of people make SK is dead threads.

Spiral Knights isn't anywhere near dead. Just because you've gotten your money's worth in a game doesn't mean it's dead. Heck, I've gotten my money's worth but if I get bored of Spiral Knights I'll go do something else for a while and come back when I feel like it.

The game isn't dead because you're bored. If you get bored then do something else or silently leave rather than leave a big stink in your wake.

Whoop dee doo, you're leaving, congrats bro :)

Here we have another thread about some guy over the internet whom most of us don't know, telling us he's leaving an online video game, because he feels lack of content, importance, and voice to the devs of SK. We're all the same, there are thousands of us suggesting things every day and more than 99.9999999174% of them never get put in to the game, and there's nothing that you can do about it.

Also, SK is indeed NOT dead. We have the gunner update coming who knows when, we just had an event pass, the anniversary is soon approaching, and if the calendar is correct, the Kataclysm should return soon aswell. Suck it up and have patience with them, they're a small group of devs running a game that supports hundreds of thousands of players, you're one of them, and you're no different.

Thank you Darkcub for: trying to draw attention to yourself by posting your leaving thread here, clogging up the General Discussion nodes by +1, and bringing the total of pointless "I'm leaving SK" threads to 18,451.

Different people prefer different games

"Personally I am already looking for another game, if anyone want to join and provide any suggestions"

What genre interests you the most? I still play this, but I see you are looking for suggestions

Osu! account. Canozo, another lockdown player, transferred over. [Music game]
Elsword, a free to play anime-inspired game (recently announced character: Elsis. [Variety? game or cannot be put into a category (at least I don't know what it would be)].
Risk of rain, an indie title. Quite fun for a survival game. Difficulty increases the more you play so normal feels like hard after some time.

Keep in mind these are my recommendations. I would be interested to see what game you posters recommend.

Torchlight II and Garry's Mod is keeping me satisfied. Not exactly happy with the cash grabs lately, or the fact that my guild, the Jempire, sort of ditched SK and moved on to greener pastures.

No, your just ignorant. There is more to this game than PvP, and there is more to it staying alive than "me, Contri and Feller". It seems like you are to self-absorbed to see otherwise. Get over yourself.

"Suck it up and have patience with them, they're a small group of devs running a game that supports hundreds of thousands of players, you're one of them, and you're no different."

At this point, the number of active players is more like 5-7 thousand at the most...

I agree that OOO doesn't produce enough of the right kind of content. They either give us a load of accessories and costumes that are not useful for anything in the game, or they rehash annual events all the time...

For all the die-hard OOO fanboys, SK is a good game but the content is getting old and the playerbase is definitely not what it used to be...
/sad
/think OOO/Sega/whoever is responsible for lack of good updates is wasting the potential of SK

If your only excuse is that PvP/FSC is boring now that you've pretty much finished, remember that we have SLs and we're getting some new guns to play with soon.
Just make a new character, try something you wouldn't normally.

You can't really "delete" your account. You can delete your character, but I never heard of permanently removing your account. If there is a way, I would like to know because I have unused accounts.

EDIT: Canozo made a similar thread that stated what you have said here, only worded differently.

1. NOTHING you do in-game actually helps the game stay alive, maybe besides wasting your cr and ce mindlessly. I'm pretty sure if you left the commotion would die down really quickly, and no one would give a rat's (censored) about you leaving.
2. The developers do what they want, and you are the 1/10000 who has made this type of thread.
3. If you REALLY cared for the game, you would shut up, and wouldn't quit or complain about it.
Bottom line

You aren't helping anyone, graveyard this thread and go complain somewhere else.

if spiral knights is dead,

if spiral knights is dead, how come i still see like 50 people around haven like a gm is there? u need to stop looking in your social panel and get new friends. they are long gone. i still find spiral knights quite alive as it is before, sure there hasnt been a lot of action in PvP, but PvE is still there surprising us

The only thing that is

The only thing that is happening is a new era that's being ushered in for the game and community. The old era is the only thing that is dead. The major players of this era will pass and new ones will arise to take their place. That's the only thing that's happening, really. Out with the old, in with the new. It's the cycle of any society.

Darkcub leaves SK every 3-4

Darkcub leaves SK every 3-4 months....
But I agree with him that the players need more atention from OOO.
SK isn't dying, but it's in "free fall" (idk if this expresion is valid in english). OOO must hear the community. They can still make weird promos with ugly accesories and costumes but not with more than 80% chance to get an UV ticket.... They have to improve the PvP to make it funnier to all the players.
They should get better servers. They should balance some weapons (like shards, needles, troikas), it's so f****** easy! They just have to change the f****** stats! And they should do more good things that the comunity suggests every day instead of making more f****** reskins... Like Hades said, they are wasting the potential of the game

@Bandido/Darknub: A ver, escribe bien el post hdp, si haces tantas faltas no te te tomarán en serio estos mancos. Y deja de decir que te vas que lo dices cada *** día y no se lo cree nadie.

No, no, no. You're using the wrong word.

SK isn't dead, it's stagnant.

People still play and pay, but it's been a very long time since the last serious content update.

I refuse to count the temporary events, since those are effectively content trashbins, because the only event that has ever come back, and all of one time, was the Kataclysm.

It's telling that instead of actually using the designs in those events ever again, they're restricted to those events.

There are no Black Kats or Margrel anywhere, because that event isn't up. Curse is once again mostly irrelevant as a defensive stat, and Margrel is pretty much a wasted boss. No point in a super-secret boss if nobody can get to it..

There are no giant free-roam levels apart from Decon Zones, Charred Court, and Dry Dock (GitM), because Apocrea took a hike. Grasping Plateau was as free-roam as it gets.

There is no festive Mt. Doom to test your co-op and gear, because it isn't Christmas. Not even Shadow Lairs are on the same level of gear-walling bullet hell.

There are no Tortodrones roaming the Treasure Vaults and other areas as passive super-enemies, and have been shoehorned into a level where all you do is fight two at once with some extra enemies. They're nowhere close to what they could have been.

Even the creep cake event last anniversary added something entertaining; roam the level and kill the enemies to win. The only level like that is Charred Court..

It'd even be possible to do something like having an event based on the new additions while still keeping them around afterwards...

I'm gonna start copy-pasting this instead of rewriting it every time.

"They can still make weird promos with ugly accesories and costumes but not with more than 80% chance to get an UV ticket...."
"And they should do more good things that the comunity suggests every day instead of making more f****** reskins..."

So they can make more reskinned accessories, but cant make more reskinned accessories? Got it. OOO: Do everything the community suggests, including things that contradict themselves.

I like the (in-game) events and I can tell a bunch of work went into them (Apocrea, Grinchlin, Tortodrone)...

They were great content - unique, fun/difficult (even for an experienced player like myself) but it's unfortunately they've been temporary, meaning the 'base game' really hasn't changed much.

The only real solution to it would be to finally release some kind of 'permanent' update (arcade redux, t3 boss, or gunner update), but AFAIK, they're probably working on all 3 at the same time or something crazy, so we haven't seen any hint of huge progress on either of them :\

3. If you REALLY cared for the game, you would shut up, and wouldn't quit or complain about it.

Games that are complained about are almost in as good of a position as games that are loved. It shows that there are people passionate enough about the game to complain about it. However, games die when apathy (not the guild) takes over - because that's when the game is 'stagnant' enough to not care about and just put down/stop playing.

Why are all of you guys

Why are all of you guys hatin' on Darkcub? OOO doesn't care about the players, maybe they will after we all QUIT :/ Time and time again they ignore simple, thoughtful suggestions and neccessities, LD lobbies, GvG tournaments, ect.. Nice job OOO your killing a unique game by shutting your eyes and ears to the very players that spent the money and carried SK to where it is today; they brought in their friends and tried to solve these problems with their OWN time and assets, yet you acknowledge nothing!

^ because it makes so much sense for them to put so much focus on the side of the game that sees maybe 50-60 players online at once instead of the main section of the game?
