    Event battles does give gold but due to a bug it's not shown in the results screen currently. This will be fixed very soon.

    Note that daily rewards are either not being given, or not being shown after the update.

    There is more consideration done to how you get stars other than straight DPS. Kills literally mean nothing, so the idea that you get kills doesn't neccesarily mean you contributed much to the overall kill. Your level, power/infamy, and total damage/heal are big contributors. So, while I see the gripe in the situation, I think there is more to it than you realize.

    Securing kills quickly, is actually super important, in the standard game, and especially in Death Match. Damage literally means nothing, if it doesn’t result in a kill.

    Shooters tend to be good at indiscriminate damage, but without someone there to secure kills, ships will often continue to float around on low health, causing trouble, or worse get healed up and make all the damage worthless.

    If I’m able to secure the first kill in a game, especially against the other teams’ Fixer, it gives my team a massive advantage for the rest of the game. That is much more valuable than some camper, lobbing mortars at a Defender, after his team has already died. Yet star rewards don’t reflect that.

    DESIGN ERRORS:

    1. Tesla shield already too powerful, powerup perk ruins play balance.
    2. ESTIMATED WAIT: 1 MIN
    3. Shrill high pitched sounds antagonize players with hearing problems and damages their hearing. Should have an off switch.
    4. Loud clicks and buzzes damage device speakers.
    5. Post-game bonuses lowered considerably.
    6. Deathmatch draws players away from guild play.
    7. New video advertisements play in a loop and never stop, burning batteries.
    8. Reduced XP for Captains favors noobs, brings incompetent players to higher ranks sooner.
    9. "Improved" graphics are more GPU-intensive, burning batteries faster.
    10. New map has too many obstacles, favoring randomly placed players nearest opponents.

    Shall I go on?

    I see what you are saying, but I disagree as to the amount of impact that kill has, and whether it would have been achieved by the same route. Given how the Devs feel (and not that it is 100% correct), it seems they give more credence to damage and damage per power/infamy on a scale, as opposed to kills.

    In terms of star rewards, kills are given no credence whatsoever (or if they are the amount is negligible). Which is why I’m saying they are being undervalued (moreso now than ever).

    Have you actually yet even seen those to make a judgement?

    What loud clicks and buzzes?

    We haven't changed rewards at all.

    Guild quests progress normally in event mode.

    Advertisements have nothing to do with the update or Rovio in general as they come from the networks.

    The effect of this change is completely insignificant on the higher level ranks.

    The graphical changes have zero impact on the GPU load of the game. We just made the art more pretty.

    Please go on, but why all the negativity? You are listing issues which are not even true. Wouldn't it be better to play the game and report issues that you actually face?
