The Fun Factor Is finally Gone

Hello All! You are going to ask me, What do you mean, By the Fun factor has gone?

Well, That is , Has anyone Noticed that Now the Levels that Primarily Paid the Highest Crowns, Have Been Nerfed?

So , Now that all the Missions are finally done, and I have completed the so-called expansion, Now what?

Not to mention that I also found that My prized possession My Nitronome 5* CTR max is gone from my arsenal,

Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

Many of you would suggest to do Pvp, but Quite Honestly, Pvp has to be fair, Cause it it's not~ There are those that use bombs to spam your re-spawn Area, Thus Never giving you a fair chance to even leave your area.

So , Now I find a game that used to be fun to play, with hopes , Of all those promises of extra Big bosses and more weapons to add to your arsenal, all just a pipe dream
I feel that this game has run its course, and thus, Many players that have been here since it's inception, are leaving.

HIKARU~

It was broken, and took the fun factor out for low tier players.

"So , Now that all the Missions are finally done, and I have completed the so-called expansion, Now what?"
Same thing when you completed shadow lairs and was waiting for missions to come out.

"Not to mention that I also found that My prized possession My Nitronome 5* CTR max is gone from my arsenal"
You chose to give it away.

Players have been leaving games since games have been created. Cry me a river and say something new.

So.. Firestorm Citadel pays

So.. Firestorm Citadel pays the same for months and months. The payout gets buffed for a few weeks then set back to the way it was before. I don't see the problem here. Nobody would be complaining about the payout if they hadn't buffed it for a little bit.

I have no idea what happened to your Nitronome. It's possible you may have accidentally turned it into a prestige mission before the patch that added the extra checkbox to stop that from happening. If you're sure you didn't do that, try submitting a support request.

I feel for you, really, I do.

You must have some screwy views if your prized weapon is a Nitronome, CTR Max! or not.

I couldn't help but laugh at

I couldn't help but laugh at how much of a travesty of the English language the OP is. I don't really see any valid points in it either. However I'd be lying if I said I wasn't growing bored of Spiral Knights. Shadow Lairs are pretty much the only part of the game that I still find really fun. Everything else (other than the expansion mission, which I have not played nor do I ever plan to) is gradually becoming monotonous. I'll eventually reach a point in which the game has become so mundane that I quit altogether. Hopefully OOO will release some new free content that is as challenging (if not more) as the Shadow Lairs. On the other hand, if OOO continues to release new bosses and levels exclusively as pay-to-play content without releasing legitimate, new free content then I'll leave the game simply because I don't agree with what OOO is doing. I respect their right as a company to do whatever they want with their game, so I expect the same respect for my right to leave it.

"Now the Levels that

"Now the Levels that Primarily Paid the Highest Crowns, Have Been Nerfed?"
They nerfed them back to their original state. What's the problem?
The notion that when it involves money, it should simply be more, more, more is just ridiculous. It throws the economy out of balance with such a huge influx of crowns. We could almost get 2x the average crowns of a regular FSC run in a single KoA run. You can't tell me that's fair. It was a necessary move, and those who protest it fail to realize the big picture.

"Not to mention that I also found that My prized possession My Nitronome 5* CTR max is gone from my arsenal"
Should've checked that prestige mission before turning it in. The checkbox they added recently helps with this, but it was a well-known problem beforehand. You should have been more cautious.

"So , Now that all the Missions are finally done, and I have completed the so-called expansion, Now what?"
"Of all those promises of extra Big bosses and more weapons to add to your arsenal, all just a pipe dream"

So, you progressed through the game faster than the developers could add to it. Find me a game where this can't happen and I'll give you a cookie.

Best comment evar.

Seriously though OP, you look like you have Caps lock on in RuneScape or something.

There are plenty of ways to play LD well, and get out of your area even when people spam status bombs. In fact, you can shoot them with a gun from behind your base's barrier.

Not this time

Well, this time I can't say OP is right.

"Well, That is , Has anyone Noticed that Now the Levels that Primarily Paid the Highest Crowns, Have Been Nerfed?"
Yeah, so? It went back to where it had to, to the original levels of crowns.

"So , Now that all the Missions are finally done, and I have completed the so-called expansion, Now what?"
You play the game if you have fun with it. If you don't, don't play it. Nobody is pointing you a gun to play, we play games for fun. If you mean new content, wait for it, I am still waiting free content and the last one I got was Roarmulus Twins dungeon.

"Not to mention that I also found that My prized possession My Nitronome 5* CTR max is gone from my arsenal, Has anyone else experienced the same issue?"
Someone from my guild had a Shivermist missing when a Weapon Slot expired, do you mean this? Also, maybe it could have gone with a Prestige Mission if you didn't check which of your Nitronomes you gave, if you had multiples.

"Many of you would suggest to do Pvp, but Quite Honestly, Pvp has to be fair, Cause it it's not~ There are those that use bombs to spam your re-spawn Area, Thus Never giving you a fair chance to even leave your area."
I don't recommend PvP in this game, if by PvP you mean Lockdown. It needs a rework, and also I am not a PvP person, I play this game for its PvE. So, yeah, you do have a point here.

"So , Now I find a game that used to be fun to play, with hopes , Of all those promises of extra Big bosses and more weapons to add to your arsenal, all just a pipe dream I feel that this game has run its course, and thus, Many players that have been here since it's inception, are leaving."
No. You just don't find this game fun anymore due to personal reasons. I still find it fun, OOO is rebalancing equipment, looking for a way to give non-Steam players ways to trade the Expansion Missions, and do more of them as well as new Rank Missions and whatever else they have up their sleeves right now. Of course that we have had an "inception" with having "same levels we had until now in new levels", but now they can go deeper (*snicker*) as we reached Vanaduke in Rank Missions.

These months that now come of course will show if this game still can be healthy or is running out of steam (haha, sorry for that joke) but right now it seems to be patching those issues we had: rebalancing the economy and forgotten equipments. I expect the trade client and a PvP rebalancing soon, even if I don't care about the last one.

Conclusion: Take a break of this game if you need it, and come back fresh. I don't see anyone leaving.

If SK forums had sigs, I'd sig this. Second half made me rofl, from the stark contrast in picturing Arkus saying the two phrases.

I found a MMORPG that updates at least once a week, sometimes twice(Wed and Fri). If they happen to update twice a week with a lot of content, most players won't be able to progress faster than the updates for that period of time. Unless they don't sleep, which some of them don't.
So, do I get a cookie? *closeenough.jpg*

By that statement I meant a game that can release content faster than you can complete it in the long run, not something that can be completed in a relatively short time (especially if playing >4hrs/day) and then you hit the wall again. BUT, due to my lack of clarity...

@Tom-Awsm That first sentence was really awkward and poorly-written. Your English is below-average, as far as this forum goes. You really have no room to complain about others.

Anyways, some people are lucky enough to learn English at a young age, but for others it's not that easy.

There's nothing grammatically wrong with that sentence, although it did turn out a bit awkward because it had a hidden quote in it.

Also, please feel free to enlighten me on how my english is "below-average, as far as this forum goes".
