Review (also on Itunes), FYI, add ur own reviews 2

Addictive, dont waste your time and money!

ALL Haypi games follow a bribe to win (B2W) concept with gamebreaking elements. I hope they ll learn to earn money with a different pricing strategy that offers them to make turnovers n revenues without breaking a games competitive game design n challenge. I ll then be happy to 'haypi' again (and pay too if pricing is structured reasonable;)!!!

I have been No1 in a server for some time just before server merges, playing over a year n countless hours, player lvl 38 and experience on other haypi games.

Pros:
* Single and team player modes
* Monsters and various items to collect
* wonderful designed monsters, moves ...
* chat and mail option
* Various language versions
* multiplatform/device option
* multiple accounts and servers

Contras:
*online force, no offline play
*not all monsters accessible and/or upgradeable w/o real $/€... purchases
*chat and other rules are not enforced, or just enforced occasionally if it fits personal objectives
*support is usually not replying, the support messaging system apart from ingame mail is a real bad design or badly designed
*different prices and offers cross different devices, countries, ...
*unrealistic prices, pay to win game
*e.g. good games used cost like 50-100 $|€, in this game thats a price for a better legendary monster or even more
*bad translations in language versions and description bugs in displaying, they dont get corrected even if reported
*in the long run bribed to win (B2W) is the dominating concept in the ranks
*real bad news politics n very limited and not creative or bad designed game events, e.g. "cooming soon" in a game activities tab for way over 1 year
*some minor bugs, illogics in lvl maps, ...
*changes often are (mostly) revenue driven n mostly tend to 'piss off' player comunity
*AI is often reacting stupidly
*and many more i cld say ... but wont now n here

'end itunes review'

Add on, too boring n repetitive


Bye to everyone that knows or knew me n cares :)!

i ll occasionally return to chat or check mail n see if some things ve/got changed ;)

if anyone has a game to recommend, true freemium or reasonable price no B2W games let me know via ingame mail on S604 or 605

Have Fun u all :)!
Yours FlinxX
S604 (49) , lvl 38 ....

In response to your cons:

- There are a lot of people that play this game because it's online. It's called an MMO, heard of it? The best games out there can be played online only. I don't see why this would be a con.

- It's called pay-2-play. Every game that wants to be succesful has pay-2-play options. No one forces you to buy Gold Coins right? Be grateful that you can get them without spending any money, there are plenty of games that don't even allow that.

- I semi-agree with this. However, telling people what is and what isn't acceptable usually solves the problem. Server Experts would be nice though, especially with the newly merged Servers.

- I second this too, altough they do reply every time, which I applause them for, the reports are usually blank.

- It's called money rate. Ever heard of it?

- Unrealistic prices? For who? No one forces you to pay. I've played games that would only get you somewhere if you paid about $1000.

- Bad translations, possibly, but it's an English phone game, do you expect them to have flawless translations? Even the largest MMOs have typo's.

- Pay-2-win is needed to win? Perhaps that's why it's called pay-2-win? Every game works like this...

- I agree with this one, we need more updates, or atleast more information about them.

- 'Minor bugs'. They're called minor for a reason, and most of them actually do get solved during Server Maintenances.

- Changes are driven to piss the community off? That sounds more like a personal opinion, because that makes no sense at all.

- I do agree the AI could use some upgrades, but I am also aware that coding an AI is extremely difficult. They follow certain rules, they don't actually think.
Finally back on track and ready to help you guys :D!



Have a question? Feel free to ask me!

hi thx for ur reply koen :)

i ll reply more detailed tomorrow (my saved edit just vanished lol)
but i look forward to continue an intellogent discussion on the matters up. I ve used the 'saved' playtime to conduct some research on their competitors, gaming and app development in general as well as had mine own thoughts n ideas along that track how to solve the gordic knot.

I know a game company needs turnovers, revenue and is trying to max ROI!! But my deep belief is that any company not investing enough in customer satisfaction will go down sooner or later. Maxing ROI is fine, but maxing customer satisfaction is very close connected even though there are some contradictive elements as well.

looking forward to proceed tomorrow
Have fun :)
