Spiral Knights is great game. Perhaps, maybe one of the most enjoyable games I have played in my life. The base is great; I love how it plays, I love the look, I love a lot of the aspects of this game.

However, this game needs to content. One of the major causes for lack of players, in my eyes, is that there is nothing to do after a certain point. It needs more events. It needs more levels. It needs better rewards. Hopefully this will be seen and takin in to consideration.

I myself have noticed that I am not playing as much as before, and it is simply because of the fact that I literally can't do anything but re run a previous level. Anyway, thats just my thought.

Anyone else have thoughts/ideas?

Go to this thread for your answers. Long story short, new content won't come up any time soon.

ideas?

Let me redirect you over to the suggestions subforum, where we're coming up with new thoughts and ideas on stuff all the time.

New things to do would be wonderful, but they can't simply be made by snapping your fingers. There's the creative process (brainstorming, drafting, creating, etc), the creation process (coding, art creation, animations), the testing process (bug testing, balancing, performance), and then the release stage (pushing the update out, observing how it's received, tweaking things as needed, squash unseen bugs). Each step along the way can take days, weeks, months even, and each part is very important.

Additionally, various kinds of content is released over time. The Iron Guildhall update was "a content update". The Golden Slime Casino was "a content update". They may not be new arcade levels, lockdown levels, balancing acts, etc, but they are indeed content updates, they just may not be applicable to certain players. This sorta thing can lead to people feeling like there's never new content being added despite it being right in front of them.

Honestly, I think the arcade needs a larger draw to it. Right now it's often overlooked. Personally, I think making minerals be able to be deposited into elevators to make them cycle faster would be cool, and perhaps adding the anti-mineral for the next level's theme would completely randomize the next depth, disregarding level theme. I know I'd play a completely random arcade gate, it'd be pretty fun.

Add another one to the pile

There have been a lot of threads pretty much saying this same exact thing. Literally everyone knows that there needs to be new content and Grey Havens (Cronus) has already confirmed them to be working on stuff.
