    We have had this identified as something to fix for quite a while.

    If it was about money like you are suggesting, there would be much better avenues for example removing Daily Rewards all together or not even give players a choice between stamina or energy, let the game decide as it once did before implementing a feature requested by players.

    So it will not affect me then Kendall. Because i only save up a weeks worth of daily rewards and collect them right before the arena starts for me. But still i believe a timer would be nice to put in for your players who play constantly so they are not penalized from players who just come in and then leave out within a matter of mins. So they can continue to keep there rewards building if they choose to.

    Ok....im confused then, on one hand you said that u stock pile it for the arena, than on the other you think u should be exempt because u play every day? What does it matter if u play every day if your still stock piling? Didnt u say that u stockpile for the arena so you dont have to use refills? So do u use refills when u play every day? If u do whats the diff in whether u use refills daily or during the arena? If your not using refills than u were doing exactly what Kano was trying to stop with this loophole closure. Taking advantage of a loophole less than others makes you no less guilty of it Thats kind of like saying ones less guilty of tax evasion because he only avoided paying 500 in taxes rather than 1000. In the end I highly doubt this loophole close will affect to many....by my math we are still allowed to amass a nice lil amount

    The example I speaking of earlier was in regards to a set minimum of XP received by an attacker regardless of how low the targets defense was . You had zero problem advocating that players were exploiting a loophole by keeping their defense at zero causing the attacker to get crappy XP

    And you were advocating highly against it like we're advocating against this.

    true. The one big diff though is that this update doesnt negatively affect how one built their account over months or years nearly in the way the other did. Stamina and energy can be refilled instantly and also still stockpiled to some extent. There is no such thing as skill point reallocation and righting the ship after an update like the other can take months or even years at the higher levels. Thats a huge diff.

    Stam takes awhile to build.

    Stamina: 807/7550 that didnt get there overnight.

    whats that got to do with the price of tea in china other than to prove my point? Any high amount of skill point allocation in any of the attributes doesnt happen over night.....so when the rules change and a high level player loses his entire strategy and is forced to change course it takes a very long time. This particular update means nothing in comparison , who care if they cant stockpile as much....all they gotta do is click refill and poof they're done....thats a far cry from months or years goofball...lol. I lost pretty much all interest in PC after that and Kano hasnt seen another dime from me there since. Hell at the rate i was climbing I would have been #1 there long ago and had spent a pretty penny doing so.....they lost out big on that one....but in the end it saved me a few bucks which makes me happy as the lack of competition and the theme nearly bored me to tears. Now PC is the slowest of the 4 ant has the least arena participants....glad I got out of that sink hole when I did....lol

    Sorry Polish i have to disagree with you. If your only logging in for seconds a day just to make sure you have locked in that daily reward and then log right back out yes you are taking advantage of it. However if your a daily player who plays more then an hour a day i would say or off and on all day accumulating more then an hour then it should not matter us hoarding our stamina. A lot of players who are hoarding it now are using it for arena. They are realizing these empty fight lists we are constantly having since so many are dropping out of the game only way to get into a newer fight list and compete is using the arena as a stepping stone. In arena we all know u can gain god knows how many levels if u have the stamina and a long battle arena that goes on for hours. And you get the drops which helps keep you somewhat balanced when leveling that fast so u can get into your next fight range and not get thumped. So this is my reasoning for it. Put a timer on the daily rewards for amount you have to play in a day to lock it in constantly until your ready to collect it. If you do not meet that min requirement then you lose out on them constantly building and have to start over again.

    o yea is that right pimp ...i dont think so you lost it when sng was hoping you would catch me and i said o no and went over 3000 levels on you in the mater of no time...but then again i have not put no money in the game for over 2 years now for the simple reason that kano cant keep up with me...so you can take your tea to china and drink it there ok...

    No need to be sy simply because we disagree. But the fact remains it was a loophole that was not intended and probably actually hurt Kano financially to some extent. Ive stockpiled a lil stamina myself from time to time but never more than a week and I u then used it immediately and went back to refills. The reason this update doesnt bother me is that I pretty much realized right away that they were still allowing a reasonable amount to be stockpiled....Ide say thats pretty fair when compared to other things.


    As far as the arena thing....that may be true in FB but it certainly doesnt hold true on Kanoplay/MS...with the addition of the attack slider the arenas are all but over in a couple hours and it only takes that long because we gotta wait out the Dstance. Only a handful of players get significant levels.

    Doesnt sound like u are going to be affected at all by latest update...glad to hear it.

    I hope not i will know in two weeks in our next arena. And start collecting a weeks worth before arena starts. Anyways you guys have fun with this thread. I made a suggestion hopefully developers will consider adding this feature with a time clock in order to stockpile them up by playing a certain amount a day. Nice chatting with you all again. Have a goodnight and take care.

    For crying out loud Ben....I wasnt trying to slam on you I was just stating the facts....I was leveling faster than anyone there had, was or is . SNG never helped me if anything they were more of a deterrent than anything, it was just me and JJ just like the other times we did it in VC. My whole point was just to point out how some updates that are meant to be beneficial work out differently than hoped or at the very least adversely affect other things. Your a great player Ben and deserving of your success....I never meant to imply other wise. Continued success!

    @Ben - what level / game do you play? Are you talking specifically about locations as keeping up?

    One of the big initiatives that we are going to look to tackle is extending certain features of the game with additional content and not necessarily pushing out new locations. Battle drops for VC/LCN/PC is the first feature that we are looking to extend beyond locations.

    I like hearing your looking to extend certain features.....so long as its done in a way that wont give lesser leveled or new players a head start aka an additional tools at an earlier stage. But I sure hope that u dont plan on stop putting out new locations altogether. Until locations catch up and surpass the highest of levels they will be still playing at a disadvantage.

    We already have battle drops...how do u extend on that? A better drop rate? The drop rate already sucks at the higher levels....my low level accounts in other games get tons more. Just last week I got only 3 battle drops in over 2k hits in my VC account. Or u talking about better drops?


    Im eager to have u go into a lil more detail about what u guys are thinking about
