Yep, they do that. It's annoying.

To answer your non-suggestion with a simple number that is not a suggestion:

I could have put probably like 5% of the suggestions forum on here. Why would you put an "other, specify" section when that's what the whole forum is for in the first place?

EDIT: lol, I put one of your threads in there. :3

I'm not old enough to vote :(

1. Bomber Update. I'm just gonna say it. Bombers are lame without UVs or Weapon Slots.
5. Forum Improvement. It's easier to Google search a Forum Topic then to use Forum Search. SK Logic.
6. Lockdown Changes. No skill in having God UVs.
8. Blast Network. Who still plays that, constantly?
11. Other. Weapon balance. make least used weapons useful.

-3- Im a swordsman at heart :3
-4-
-5-
-10- but i already know this will never happen, had a forum discussion with someone else on one of my other topics why this would not work with the scaling system in SK

options 2 and 9 are already happening, so i don't see why you have to put them up here.

It's gotta be...

1: Bomber Update; Bombs are far too weak for the trouble you have to go through. Too reliant on CTR to be considered useful in comparison to other weapon types that provide instant results.

2: Gunner Update; I'm a gunner at heart, so of course I'd love to see more guns or changes to their limited arsenal variety. Blitz is blatantly overpowered, Alchemers are the only good weapons, and everything else is just pretty pathetic, even Polaris (which is either overpowered or dumb, possibly both).

3: Sword Update; I started off with swords so it'd be neat to see more of course. Brandishes are blatantly overpowered, DA, WRH, Flourish, and BTB are okay, GF is in an odd spot, other swords are lacking or bad.

6: LD Changes; Lockdown is fun, but even a genius can tell it's biased towards those with better gear. Polaris and WRH are overpowered crutches. Too many weapons and armors are useless. New folk are too easily turned off. Class weakness are too easily negated. Leavers aren't penalized heavily enough. You shouldn't be allowed to equip lesser starred gears in T3 matches; people with a 4* armor set and at least one 4* weapon should be allowed to queue in T3; not 4* helmet, 3* armor, and and a 3* sword and you're good to go, no, absolutely not. Teams need to be divided based on some sort of LD performance score to prevent one sided stack matches. AT is cheating and the option should be removed for LD matches. Could use a better matchmaking system and private settings.

9: New Arcade Redux: Flat out boring these days. The only thing you go down here to do these days is to make crowns, which are lacking there as well compared to missions. I sure hope for it to be fun to do again.

11: Other: Gaining furniture in the clockworks, more lore, more enemies, armor rebalances, more costumes, cleaner loadout interface, and costume shields (though was it said costume shields couldn't work?).

6 - Lockdown changes.

Just create a 3rd queuing option for UV-less Lockdown (in addition to regular Random lockdown and Guild lockdown). It would be less intimidating for 4 star players to join, since they are completely outclassed by 5 star users.

But I know it will never happen, so at minimum I'd just like to see more Lockdown maps. :/

(Why don't we have a Royal Jelly Palace themed map yet? We have one for each boss, more or less. That, and an Unknown Passage themed lockdown map, complete with unkillable turrets and stun pads, would be really cool.)

But overall, some focus on changing how the server syncs data between players would be helpful--there are many instances where people are hitting from tiles away or I am reacting quickly enough to evade an attack locally but not quickly enough on the server side, apparently. Something to optimize everyone's gameplay for a smoother experience.

1 and 11: Level creation

1 and 11: Level creation tool.

Also, isn't 12 kind of a dumb option to include?

1: I've never bombed in the game but I do feel the diehard bombers have been neglected.
3: I'm a diehard swordsman and I'm plain bored of the relatively limited options.
4: I'm still waiting on a simple room that has a frikin pet food alchemy machine! We should also be able to mod the flooring block by block in all areas of the hall.
5: It shouldn't take more than a second or two to complete my search for a thread title.
6: I'm a diehard long-time LD player. I wish there were more maps, and an "Extended Version" that had maps with 7 CPs and more players, plus a much longer playtime and is more expensive but more rewarding (I'll actually be making a thread specifically about that at some point).
10: Well, it'd be an incredibly hard thing to do (like it would never happen), but I personally would like to see 6* and 7* gear to get.
11: I would enjoy a new Danger Mission or two (I have ideas about that) and a new Expansion (can be bought with ce or $ obviously)
My two cents.

Additionally, a level creation method would be wonderful. Showing OOO images from Spy doesn't accomplish much because they have to make it and program it still. If they offered players that sort of tool (Maybe an unlockable at an upper rank, like 7-1 or something), they could get new content level-wise at a blinding rate, with no expense beyond creating the tool and managing it. That's been my dream for 16 months now.

Thanks for the votes everyone.

@Klipik - Ok, maybe you took the "specify" party literally. xD

@Khamsin - Good point. I removed option 12.

7, 10 and 11

That 11 are:
- make bash effects, lenght, speed and duration dependent on shield;
- refill emergency revive by overhealing;
- join pieces of same minerals to make them bigger;
- pressing 1, 2 or 3 in safe zone will effect in hugging, stroking or scratching etc. your sprite.
And yes, I'm forcing through my dead thread.
