Unbelievable devs, u take away our beloved games, FC and GaW, and make us join KaW or PIMD, then u bring out a new game, you devs are greedy. Look they started losing money on GaW and FC, but FC hadn't had a update in 2-3 years, update the game and u might see a statistical rise in profit, ATA already made their money back from FC and GaW so they shut us down. Then spend their time on a new app called "Perfect Drift" more like "Faggot Drive", it's typical greedy devs. And to top it all off the put it only on android because that's what smartphone brand makes the most money for them, I wish I was making as much money as devs but I swear they are the most corrupt developers of any game (besides a few which I know drug dealers created to make money for drugs) but other than those, this is starting to look a bit shady, and 1 last thing, bribery, stooping low hey devs, mightn't be ur best decision yet.
"update the game and you might see a statistical rise in profit"; That is why the founders of ATA are multi-millionaires in an extremely successful business, and you will remain a child struggling to even comprehend that. I feel like I'm repeating myself by explaining to children that ATA is a business, and the apps they provide are free(mium). Don't they teach simple business to kiddies these days
^ doesn't make sence, sure they are successful but are stupid enough to not update the app even though it would make profit
^ how so? It gets more people to buy things that will boost them during times, such as when they brought out the update and promo for HTE they made a 27% profit rise
And how much resources did that cost? And how much larger is the active player base in kaw than fc and gaw. You act like the developers just willy nilly deleted two of their applications without any thought. I'm not even gonna bother with you anymore. You're just too thick to understand.
A company is not a small family business that is looking just to gain a decent revenue for the family. A company must make profit to grow more and for shareholders revenue. If a company have a business where there's no growing potential will close it and will look for other potential businesses. Simple economics. Is that simple. Even if is not losing money on it a smart company will close a non-growing business.
Dude, shut the **** up and move on. It won't be the last game you play that goes to hell, so you might as well get used to it.
Lol thanks! There's so many reasoning to justify ATA's move. ATA's competitors are Kabam and Storm8. Guess what!? Both of them have racing games. You can't compete if you have less products than your competitors. Moreover games like this works as a fishing tool too. For example I like racing games too. And before this i was playing the racing game of one of ATA's competitors. And of course I was curious to try their MMORPG games aswell. Didn't found them appealing enough to make me stay and to quit KaW. But others might have different tastes than I do.
Ok to get a few things pointed down. FC/GAW did not have enough players to keep the games going, the developers tried everything to keep those two games going but sadly it was costing them more to keep them running as ads then what they were getting along with the amount of players they had within the games. They did not have enough players to keep the game more enjoyable, including myself the game was lacking players both on GAW and FC. This is the reason the lack of updates those Two games were receiving, if the community has jumped by least 50% within those two games they would of have a chance. So as every developer I have seen on different apps, ATA, are trying new apps, new games on different platforms, to grow their business so they can make the updates more enjoyable and playable for their community. Remember guys placing games as ads for other games and websites is not cheap to do so, along with amount of players those games need as well. I hope I have pin pointed some details for you guys, remember the developers are listening into you're feedback all the time, studying their players along trying new games for their company.
ATA's apps have all been extremely innovative, first on the market like CoC, it's what makes them as successful as they are. Ironically, gaw and fc which had the least innovation failed.
Exactly Benny. Even with Perfect Drift. Many are saying "oh! Its rip off", or "oh! There are so many other much better racing games!". But none of them have a social aspect (one of the features that made ATA such a successful company in the market) as PD has. Also Perfect Drift brings PvP in racing games at a new level. In other racing games if you lose...well **** happen. You can try it one more time. But in Perfect Drift you race for what is called "turfs". Turfs that bring regular income to buy parts for the cars or to improve driving skills. Lose them and your progress is affected. Win and take the turf from your opponents and their progress in game is affected. No other game has such an innovative PvP aspect.
The devs cant MAKE you do anything. That would be terribly uncanadian. HOW DARE YOU MAKE MORE GAMES AND STUFF! SHAME! (Grabs a pitchfork and a torch) You kids sure are convinced you have all the answers. Those games did get updates, so, to say they didn't is misinformation. The reason that the updates stopped after a while is that, after the last few updates were released, the game didn't remain profitable,so, as a courtesy to you, the player, they let the games run in their own anyway, whilst avoiding throwing money Into a losing product. Its a radical concept for kids to try and grasp, but, that's how business works. ATA was generous with you, and you now nerd rage against them. Businesses don't cut off viable income streams, so your statement is a non sequitur. Yep. All business owners are very greedy. I will discuss having ATA become a non profit Orginization. Oh,my the way, would YOU be interested in pouring countless hours into a job, and then not getting any pay for it? I'm just wondering if you hate YOUR money as much as you hate ATAs money. Mmmmm...... Yea....... Ok. I will see if I can get the next game they create to have its inaugural launch on a black berry. Would that make you happy? Then ATA would have both no money and no players. BRILLIANT! STUPID GREEDY PLAYER!!!!!!!!!!! GREEEEEEEEDY!!!!!! So, devs closed down unprofitable games after the updates didn't generate the necessary revenue to keep them afloat. They then went on to try something new and different, and launch it on a highly successful platform with massive exposure. Yep. DEFINATLY shady. Just a shade above drug dealing, if you ask me.
ATA is making a minimum of 20 thousand dollars a day rough estimate of course. If that's a small buisness then there doing great. This thread is pointless don't complain about the money the devs are or aren't making. Just Kaw on like the rest of us the choice to spend money is tots no one is forcing you to nob/Crystal or buy pro packs
