Hello, I run this game on steam, but sadly the log-in for the main site does not support it. I wanted to make a nice long statement and possibly get some feedback on it. Spiral Knights- A very fun game, Addictive, play-for-hours and an all around good MMO. But don't you guys think a least good chunk of content can be added to this game? From where I stand I see this game having very powerful potential. 'More' is what everyone is saying on this game when I ask them "What would you guys love to see out of this game in the future"- and yes in due time MORE updates will come indeed- but the game has been out for a good while now and I'm wondering "Hmmmm, after this long they're just adding new mobs?, And just adding a new Bomber-man style PVP?"(Which I love) but don't you masses of this game think it could be more than that? Socialize the game more is what I personally like to see. Not a whole lot of people talk in this game and I would imagine it's just the fact that there are only two things to do; Clockwork, Blast Network. Now look at a game like World of Warcraft ( I KNOW for a fact already that I will get flamed for this and I really don't care, but it's facts handed down for ones to see) Look how they're amassing players by the day; PvP, World PvP, Battlegrounds where you actually hit someone else with your sword, Professions, events. Take all of this into consideration, I know people don't want to see this on a Spiral Knight Forum but some kind of example needs to come from somewhere . Before I get into anything else- Energy is what I'd like to talk on next. The system is O.K if you had bought a $2.50=750CE pack the beginning of the game ( I started off with the starter pack) The chilling effect here is when you actually run out. Everyone needs to take breaks yes, but have you seen hardcore gamers? They don't care at all, They want to play (consecutively). I love the slash 10 to 5 energy for cost thought on every other weekend sure, but it should be permanent... We shouldn't be paying 10 energy just to be running into a group that doesn't know what to do even with a tutorial in the beginning and yes we can solo and occasionally do guild runs and all that talk but seriously, don't you guys think it's more fun with a group? Cause I sure do. Energy for me was a PITA and that's why it drove me to even buy the energy pack in the first place. Being placed with other groups that don't know what they're doing.... Not blocking... Not trying to attack.. Going AFK... Disconnecting.. It's all havoc at tier 1 for some- And it shouldn't be that way at all. The unbind and bind should just go away. Not only from my situation from not even being told to go to Spiral Knights Wiki from the jump there can be atleast another good 10000 players that have had the same issue. Went with the default gear and now look where they're at. Slow attacks... They want to do more damage and have faster attack speed and or just defenses from elemental. But their energy was wasted... from a lack of a tutorial from the beginning of the game. Spiral Knights Wiki players a large roll in the game as a 25% of it for players to understand what they want to do once they reach the 5 star mark. That wasn't told to us though at the launch of game. From the website sure but not from inside the game, heck even a little robot from the start where you actually do the tutorial or even at the end of if-Shoot even the start,Middle and the end there should be a little robot saying " Once you leave this tutorial Knight, make sure to check out the Spiral Knights wiki on the homepage to understand what you want to do in the game more" Y'know? Because the unbind for 5 stars is just a cluster junk for the person that didn't know...4000CE? I mean jesus...
I have a azure guardian set and a royal jelly set and 4 other 5 star weapons and 5 star shield- didn't take too long but it was accomplished. Which leads me to heat, I can't say so much on the topic of heat- I want to say that it's perfectly fine but.... I don't think i'm at that point yet. Only reason is because it just takes one long time to actually level the 4 star to level 10 to upgrade it to 5 star and then the 5 stars need to be leveled to 10 just to get the full benefits and it's just like Oh my lord! Blast Network, Very fun I give it a 4/5 only reason for that score is because of the AFK players. AFK means they're not there 3 rings.lol. I know I sound like an jack-a for saying that but they should be kicked in the first minute of just sitting there... Doing nothing. I can't wait to see the next player versus player option you guys will bring. Now to a real suggestion. In battle there should be a energy bar ( Not the Mist or CE energy) but energy where the players can dodge and sway from attacks by I.E. Double push W and the way you're facing with your mouse and move forward in a quick dodge motion and avoid an attack- because in times I find myself surrounded in arenas way just to easily surrounded by bots that can shock you and freeze you at the same time. And No one likes that at all and when your shield goes down there should be an option to avoid attacks in a better manner. I mean the lay out of these game is a dungeon crawler/ MMO and it feels good having those 2 together makes for some fun action but the energy cuts out on being the dungeon crawlers I remember me and friends staying up late on games running dungeons all night would be fun times and we never had to worry about some kind of system keeping us down accept for bosses and or just powerful monsters we were not ready for. And in replacement for the energy on the clockworks there should just be more powerful monsters and way more powerful and smart bosses? I mean this is a genius idea each level is easy once you have a group that knows what they're doing so they'll just be farming the instances no problem and getting out in an hour or so. But if you were to add more powerful monsters and WAY more bosses and Mini bosses that are not just a trojan knight and a annoying beasts, that would make the game gain way more supporters and way more players. Don't get me wrong the game is great but the graphics are already appealing to kids more than adults and if the gameplay is to live up to kids standards to? That is another section in my suggestion I know that will get flamed but it's ideas people. Leaving me with my last comment. I know there will be more to come in small packaged updates as we've been getting already but add more to the game BIGGER updates y'know? Content that would be like a whole nother Expansion to the game. I leave with that hopefully I receive more people that feel and understand where I'm coming from than people that will just troll me 'til death and cause anger..... Conana

I also left out each weapon should have base damage on enemies than a weapon that does grey damage because of the type we're going against. Some will do blue damage on enemies some will do grey. And then some weapons will do yellow/oranged kind of damage which is what really matters when it comes down it. I don't want to attack with my Divine avenger and do grey damage when it's already slow as it is. but the Leviathan has base damage (blue damage) against any type of mob on the game. and that's what I am saying every weapon should have it's on variety of benefit but let them all do base damage on enemies please.

And new environments I.E sewers, not just in the sky? More than clockwork's norm. Actual dungeons, Catch the drift? I just want to see new places other than what we have here now.
