disable upgrades

[furqi]

exactly i stand by principle.

[rrrttttt]

I think, the game must be FAIR, players should have same amounts of upgrades/bonuses/boosts/cakes/bells, no matter have they paid cash or not

You can't spam them...it is only 3 attack/defense per game.

EDIT: I missed the "2" button. :/

EDIT2: Because I had only played a few small games, I didn't realize that you could get so many boosts. Although, does this feud really matter? Before there were boost disabled games, we managed fine didn't we? I think of it like this: normal family=happy. Normal family+hot tub=really happy. Just because someone takes away our hot tub doesn't mean we should be unhappy.

I'm gonna side with Robo on this one. We've managed before, so why can't we manage now? While I still hope Lopdo will have upgrades disabled for tournament play, we have to realize that this is what Lopdo feels is best for the game, so we're just going to have to trust his judgement. On the other hand, I do realize that us, the players, can and should give our side of the story; but once it stops being constructive and gets ragey, we need to realize that we're not helping and move on.

Sorry if I sound contradictory, but I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

yes i can see you have a valid point. But surely there must be other options, correct?

I don't care about other people doing better than me. I have plenty of my own upgrades.

What I care about is the option to play a REAL game, not some idiotic thing produced in a fit of greed.

Well said. I couldn't agree more. I stumbled across this game and can stumble across another game that can hold my attention. I am sorry, but this upgrade will make me just move on...and if had I stumbled across this post upgrade, I am sure it would have NEVER held my attention for the few months that I have played. I understand the financial issue, I am sure there are other ways to make these gains RATHER than obscure the fundemental basis of the game itself. Now you have a game that your current customer base is leaving and it is less attractive to new potential customers, it doesn't take a business degree to see the eventual end result. Just remember, there are thousands if not millions of alternatives for all of these players.

I honestly do not see where the problem lies with enable/disable upgrades. If someone wishes to explain it to me, please take my side of events into account: the fact that I paid for all upgrades/races (xcept dragon... skyrim/mw3/uncharted/etc come before dragon race... ) in order to mash others into the ground and the fact that everything I bought is close to useless on a map with <40 regions.

This whole commotion was just because Lopdo shouldn't have put a choice to disable upgrades in the first place.
People wouldn't be against it... Right now it is as if he "took a candy from a baby" and some of the babies are crying... no offense, but that's just like it is.

EDIT* Just noticed it was basically the same idea that Robomajor posted:

^The thing is, back then we didn't have boosts. Boosts changed. If there were no boosts, I would be happy with latest update.

I came to VW when disable upgrades switch was already there, i turned it on and never turned it off. Comparison to candy is incorrect - in a normal society people who take a candy from a baby gets punished.

Not really... but oh well
