    And where’s the buff for defenders??? They got the most HP but still no one uses it for the top 50 players. They can’t compete on the top

    I'm hoping this was just a comment without much planning. To only offer a boat in a single week long event, and then never have a plan to offer again in the future (all while launching another boat), is quite comical.

    • Battery drain issues
    • Unregistered shots on nitroing enemies
    • Target aiming (that's a whole chapter)
    • Firebomb damage area bug (that's where you should have started fixing the item )
    • Shop refresh notification at the wrong time
    Just from my head.

    Issues that have appeared SINCE the release of 4.0:

    1) Game lag that is unrelated to internet. Many of us have reported a new game lag that has never been seen before.

    2) Fire bomb damage affecting ships outside of the blast radius. This may be due to lag, I'm not sure.

    3) Boats literally teleporting around the map. Especially in Wayward Pains.

    4) Damage not registering on targets. Many have experienced this one.

    5) Invisible ships. I'm sure you've heard this one from the mods but just putting out there.

    6) App crashing. This may me a device specific issue but nevertheless adding it as I've noticed a few people mention this.

    I have reported a few issues where items such as nitro and tesla shield are seen in the Battle Bay home screen ship graphic. I have added them to the Toobers #suggestions discord group as I was told to do so by Warhawk.

    There are definitely a couple more I've missed but these are the main bugs/issues.

    Oh goodness, and one of the worst ones I forgot to mention is a bug with the target lock.

    Since the update it is locking and unlocking randomly and when trying to lock on a target closest to the centre of the screen it often spins my ship and lock on unrelated targets behind/to the side of me.

    I am disgusted at the state of the interceptor tokens at moment to put it simply.

    I am slightly short of the amount needed to get to interceptor and been on long term sick can not afford to buy any but the total greed of this company results in people like me or people on low incomes with children no way of enoying large parts of the game. Just goes to show profits come before the players and in the long term if enough f2p players quit over this kind off issue the game will fail as wont be enough players left to keep the paying players happy. Seen enough games fail this way before.

    Both of you say that, but only the interceptor looks kind of appealing at the moment. The reaper is a neutered healer with a yellow slot.

    Ship piece should be generic and able to be used on all new boats. Making the ship pieces separate between 'interceptor' and 'reaper', etc. is a BAD MOVE.

    Consider this feedback from the majority if not all players. We want a way to level the new ships without $$$. If the only way to level the new ships is with hundreds of dollars you will start to see a lot of players completely skip these events becuase for them the new ship will just be a trophy and not actually usable in the bay.

    Personally having a release where $$ or grinding to unlock the ship and get a head start is perfectly acceptable and a good practice. After the new release and a couple of weeks go by players need a way to unlock the boat and level it up with in game currency not a credit card. If you only allow money to level a ship you are making a pay to play game instead of a FTP game where you can pay to get ahead.

    Speeder has been a super volatile ship for a while. Now, I'm no pushover with the speeder. In a close fight, there's very few people who can consistently take me down, something that is true even post-4.0. However, I get the feeling that I'm dancing on the edge of a knife, every time I get into a battle. Nothing feels "light" anymore. What with the huge damage boost, there's no room for a knifefighting speeder with selfheal.

    Nor is there room for an enforcer with a single TS. TS, at the rate that it's being nerfed, is heading to a point where double TS will be the only possible way to play it.

    Devs. Please consider the fact that double bubble is not the biggest problem in the yellow department. @Miika, with your stats, I think you must have seen a big drop in double bubble enfos post-3.2. I don't know if the stats reflect it, but I have seen it. I see less of those guys these days. Now, it's not the token TS nerf that did it. I speak from experience, as an ex-DB user, it was the agi change that did it. It was simply so much more fun knifing with the enforcer, compared to being hyper conservative with DB.

    If you want to see less DB users on the Bay, if you wish to reduce its dominance, you have to make more twoslot yellow items. You have to make the other existing twoslot more viable. I think you'll see a big change in the metagame in a good way;)

    I hope you reconsider, because this basically means:
    For all premium ships: Don't bother unless you plan to invest some serious money.

    Let them destroy it too... Whats the problem if bubble get destroyed like frost. They are damaging yellows because they want us to use new ship by buying it with money.
    Anyways thanks to these nerfs which helped me to quit money spending in android games.

    I would be ok with $ or grind through an event for ship parts if you have a plan to let us upgrade the ships later. Say after a month from the release of a new ship convert that ship over to gold. Then there's a bonus for those who spend $ or who grind it out followed by a chance for everyone else to join in later. But to say there isn't some sort of plan for future upgrades outside of only spending $ is insane and kind of insulting.

    I want to see the dev and game designers to grind their reaper and inceptors to L.50 like normal people.
