    Ya and the shop still sucks! I've been playing this game for almost a year and I have never seen an epic turbo yet.. I could go on for days how I hate that Rovio tortures us with this horrible system... But their loving it because the scum of the earth are spending 20000$ to get these stupid little items that are clearly impossible to get naturally through the game... Anyway I'll stop now.

    5 month of play (at least 5-6h/day) 400 Euros spent...
    waited 5 month for another epic teslashield...
    wait since 5 month for another epic grenade
    all is made for pay in this game.
    and cos you don't pay enough your infamy don't raise.

    we wait for update, things like this but no news of dev, no news of the future of battlebay...
    i think this game is just a good 3D motor useful for rovio, and a moneymaker. After rovio don't care of this game.

    At time of writing, 93%* of your customer base seem pretty unhappy with the shop system.
    Any chance you can look at this please?

    *208 vs 16 votes, granted not the entire player base, but ive seen worse sample sizes used in global advertising campaigns for cosmetics :)

    Not sure if they are going to have a look cuz this model seems fine for them who cares about what players feel about the system, they are playing anyway! I have stopped spending money for now just like Bunta and few others, I will spend again if i think its worth it :)

    I haven't spent a cent since updateageddon. This game is worth 5$ tops. Hard to believe there's people numb enough to spend 20000$. Proof a civil war is coming. No one should have that much money to waste on such a pile of crap

    In this range myself, the struggle is real. I'm facing off against people with multiple high-level Epic and Legendary items. I've still got two Uncommons and no Epics.

    Wow, that was a long time ago. I'm now at the "3.5K infamy wall"

    Not pictured - my extra pairs of Turbos, Sniper Cannons, and Shields that will take me to Tier V Rare gear for those items as well.

    I spent no real money on this game and still feel robbed. All weapon progress being based on RNG is just dumb to me and the fact thst the shop works the same way is even worse

    It's up to you guys to fight the fight with Rovio. However, I think it's a losing battle. This thread has existed longer than most people playing on here (existed prior than Global release) and Rovio clearly knows what they are doing (even though it may not be best for the success of the game).

    I'm already out the door and not coming back, I haven't even fired up the game in about a week and a half. I only visit the forum once a day (depending if I get replies) .

    The whole Pay to win, money grabbing practices, and random garbage items has already killed my will to play this game.

    Oh and to REQUOTE this as reference.

    The 10,000 Game metric no longer applies. You likely need 30,000 games to get what Porthos got in 10K from the old system. This is because I've already surpassed Porthos's number of games played before i quit, and he still had way more epics than I had(over double).

    It's a given that this current system has stretched out the timelines, and therefore made the costing for more expensive.

    20000 games played. 1 T5 epic.
    It's a very long road to have competitive gear when there are so many whales.
