Thoughts on promotions

  1. With most, if not all Promos dating back to the Fiendish fangs, the winner is always in btb hte. In more recent ones like the most recent tribute jewel event, you can buy an unlimited amount of boxes for nobility. These events have became and always been a simple pay-to-win promotion. In that sense, it puts poor players like me at a disadvantage because i cant spare to purchase seals simply because of my budget, and I am not the only one. Many people in the KaW community are at this disadvantage because we arent paying for nobility to purchase golden lock-boxes or seals. Thereby preventing us to be at competitive level with the top players. I understand that hte is a way of rewarding a player and its clan of purchasing from ATA but that is not to its full fairness in the long run when it comes down to promos like this. There should be a promo where you have to do something other than hte to earn items, kinda like the banners, spread it across a couple different sizes of epic battles and require no type of real life purchases vital to being a top contender, this way, everyone has a chance at winning or at least being competitive:)
     
  2. Errrm, that's kind of how freemium games work. You can have fun all you want in them, but if you want to be the best, you need to drop some cash. If you give no rewards for spending money, then the funding for this game would stop, and you wouldn't be able to play this game at all. I'd rather keep it as it is than mess with the funders.
     
  3. Oh, woe is you.
     
  4. I haven't participated in recent promos, but i was in the earlier ones and you can do fairly well without spending money. Granted you may need the help of nice people or a nice clan maybe to be able to grab some hte or rotwb but it is possible to do good as long as you're quite active.
     
  5. I agree with narwhal
     
  6. Holy wall of text
     
  7. Support, I think a solution could be change drop rate of Seals during event, ie regular haunts etc

    3x drop rate or maybe 5x drop rate etc
     
  8. This is what I absolutely hate about all multiplayer games on the app store. There's absolutely ZERO multiplayer games worth playing that are free.. And by free I mean completely free... No gimmicks or anything..
     

  9. Generally the point of app development is profit. Even the free ones generate some form of profit for somebody.
     
  10. Well there are free games with micro transactions, but most free games have ads so app Devs end up making money somehow.
     
  11. Yes ATA needs to make a profit n they brought out HTE originally as a promo to promote growth,they then saw the potential and made it a permanent eb.The initial reason for HTE was growth but then ATA became greedy and tied it to everything.
    Prior to HTE ATA still made money and was constantly in the top ten in the app market but now look where KAW is,the constant promo's where only HTE running clans get to the top prize ' s has driven ppl away from the game.The gold inferno n aqua amounts are the benefits from HTE and that's the main point of the eb,rewards for promo's should be spread equally over all eb's and available to all playing styles equally.
     
  12. As I've been saying. The doesn't drop equipment so the devs feel bad for them poor players so they make events for them to get even more over powered equipment.

    Doh
     
  13. If you pay more for something its a better product 9:99 kettle for example or 49:99. Anyway make the best of what you have here and in real life. Cya
     
  14. Why do you bot understand that they want you to have to do hte to win.....that is where they make money. They do not care about you hitting free ebs and never will. So stop crying in forums and looking like an idiot.
     

  15. Aqua and inferno is the reward? What is this 2012?
     
  16. KAW was #1 App in 2012 where is it now and as far as aqua and inferno goes HTE drops are consistently higher than other ebs
