    Such a cringeworthy exchange.

    Long story short: 4* Prime is now just as rare as a 4* Powerglide from the same non-character crystal.

    Well it's nice of them to finally make it fair and equal.

    I doubt that government involvement in these games is far off. It's gambling. Australia had already addressed it. It's not solely this game but all mobile games anymore it seems. It's just disheartening to know, confirmed, that the "best" characters I was chasing always had a lower drop rate.

    I suppose it's good to know they are taking steps to make the game more fair. But still.

    And still we don't get our unicorns. The game knows too much.

    Hey guys. New to the forum but not to the game. So disappointed there are no 5* shards on offer this weekend after all the hype about the new line up

    Thanks. My top picks were Prowl or E1, but any of them other than Sludge were going to be great pulls, since I had none of them in 4*.

    Blaster is going to be a monster. I saw one 4* at like 54 or 55/10 and he was crazy. He and his minions were stomping on z11 if I recall.

    Definitely no complaints about pulling him. I should be able to get him to level 20 tonight (Lab is occupied for another few hours), and then I can toss him on a few teams during the LB and get him to 30 during the weekend.

    What's funny is most of players community especially high level players knew the odds weren't the same for each both. 5*batches especially were easy to tell when the results are shared across multiple alliances. It's actually big surprise Apes are admitting to this fact basically, after all the lies Apes told us about being equal and random. It's why player community hates SpaceApe, and they probably have the worst reputation among mobile game industry, hence their nickname "SpaceRape".

    Congrats to all who pulled the new 5*

    I understand that. I don't hate them, they are a company. I understand they have to make a profit and respect their final admission to unfair practices.

    I guess my complaint is no oversight. They can give details or provide false facts like EVERY mobile gaming company.

    I'm happy with them admitting the wrong doing. It's a step in the right direction and encourages me to make purchases again.

    And I take everything I read about what people get with a grain of salt. People who score big or lose big are the quickest to scream and be remembered which skews perception of the stats.

    Lol. The NFL is a game. Nike is a company based on games. Schools are often times chosen or celebrated for their sports / games.

    "Games" are a trillion dollars market in the US. I'm not saying people aren't it don't overreact, but to use that it's a game as a reason for them to calm down isn't a great argument imo lol.

    No hate. I'm not trying to start anything. Just playing devil's advocate.

    I mean, on the one hand, I can understand the idea of having rarer, "chase" characters. It incentivizes players to spend more dough on the game. It's... well, I won't call it "good" business, but it's certainly business. However, on the consumer side of things, I am SO happy they made this change.

    What are people thinking of the new Slash/Rippersnapper ability? I like the main idea of it, but I'm not a fan of the "random chance" stat. Just in general, I'm not a fan of having a "random chance" mechanic in the combat (or what have you) of games where that is part of the main gameplay.

    I think Slash’s ability will be extremely useful on a rush sqaud and in the new game mode. Definitely looking forward to having her 4* in my roster.

    I didn't get a chance to watch the stream... did they address the lack of transformation?
