There are so many possibilities. It might be possible that certain people from the lower levels of staff have not done their job properly. What if suppose, those at the head would care but the thing is that they do not even know about what has been going and they think every thing is running smoothly because of the regular high revenue numbers, high users activity and so on? Users need do something to send those people at the head a message.

Or maybe some of those people think that they got us trapped like people got trapped in drugs? Maybe it is the case for some users here and that is why despite all the whinings, complaints and so on, they are slaves and still 'eating this ****'.

In any business, customer demand and satisfaction are very important and are usually taken seriously into consideration. Clearly, for the case here, something is fishy.

They are not forced up but firstly why are some of them there or were here when it will not be helpful or would not have been helpful nor used by most users. That is called wasting resources and only the devs know why they did such things, maybe for the sake of introducing new things and to fool their own company by making the people at the head think that they developed or introduced new things that users will want or will be pleased and that will increase the revenue of the company when in fact this has not been the case so many times? Many times users here were like,do those people working for Nordeus even play the game or know themselves how the game functions?

About the watching video for green packs thing, you cannot say that it is not forced. It is forced because this game can hardly be played competitively without green packs, and for new users with new accounts, farming red packs might be important too. Even the daily 2X training offer is forced because it requires absurbed amount of condition loss to boost the bonuses to 8-10 % without the 2X offer. Users have become like daily working bots (or working bees) for Nordeus; they complete offers in mass that bring them big revenue, but then what do they give in return in terms of their demands and satisfaction? My point is they are just making use of us to make money, and in response to that msg about wait for the next version.... it is just a repetitive scenario that has been happening every year since years, and it is like some people want us to keep waiting having false hopes but completing their offers for them make money. I myself I have seen and also been told many times like wait for the next version bla bla bla in the past.

At some point here in the past, maybe some got the impression or thought that maybe it is only about a few users or a small fraction of the whole community, that is the feedback from the forum here did not matter much (not much weight) but with time it seems that the matter is global as there have been so many complaints everywhere from different users for the same things, not only on the forum. So, clearly something is wrong with this company.

What else can be done, maybe many of us sign a petition saying that since months and years most of our feedback had no effect whatsoever on the changes that followed in the game and that we only got more annoyed upto to the point where some of us felt insulted because the devs brought more undesirable changes and did the complete opposite of what was asked as if they are blind and deaf, and send it to the people at the head of the company? Nothing much else options left for unsatisfied users apart from quitting this game and move on.
I have to ask if you have so disappointed in the company and the game. Why do you keep coming back and playing? It is the reason why they know their game is good.

With regards to out to make money. I think many people have mentioned before that every business wants to increase revenue and profits. It will never be enough. There should always be growth in revenue and profits.

From what I read, many have mentioned the game is non pay to win and some even say it is pay to lose. Lol. On top of that, look at the hall of fame and the number of successful managers. I dare say most do not spend a dime. And with that, if you can win every trophy every season just watching videos. I would say it is still possible to be competitive without watching videos. It will be about management. I will be creating a 2nd account and have no intention of watching videos so I will document this. We won't win all trophies but I still think 1 trophy a season is possible for players who do not watch videos.

I do not think they ignore everything that we want but what is requested sometimes only benefits certain segments of users. Like some might not want a more time consuming youth academy as they have to work and have families to spend time with. And many changes requested does not benefit the company bottom line as well. Like you mentioned, it has to beneficial to both users and company.

You mentioned that they implemented many useless things. I agree. But sometimes companies have to test the market.

As long as they do not corner us into spending like some games do. It will be difficult for you to organise a mass stop. And even so, you might not get what you want
