Wild Pass: Splinterlands added a new additional fee to play in Wild, here is why I am thinking about quitting Splinterlands.

(edited)

Splinterlands hat jetzt noch eine zusätzliche Gebühr eingeführt, um Wild Battles spielen zu können.

Habe Tausende, Zehntausende Dollar für Wild-Karten und SPS ausgegeben, muss jetzt aber noch eine laufende Gebühr bezahlen, um mit den Karten überhaupt spielen zu dürfen?!

Der Wild Pass kostet mit Vouchern 0.90 USD, ist aber mit DEC und Credits noch ein bisschen teurer und ist nur eine Season (2 Wochen) gültig.

Um in Wild überhaupt spielen zu können, braucht man neben Karten auch noch gestakte SPS, um überhaupt Rewards zu bekommen, was eigentlich wie eine Gebühr wirkt. Und jetzt noch die zusätzliche Gebühr. Wild Pass.

Andererseits kann man den Wild Pass auch mit Vouchern erwerben, die man aber auch einmal zusammensparen muss.

Aber der eigentliche Grund, warum ich überlege, zu spielen aufzuhören ist, dass durch die Änderung Wild für mich unspielbar geworden ist.

Bin durch die vielen Änderungen mit Gold-Level-Karten in Champion gedrängt worden und wegen der Gebühr sind nur noch 4% der Player in Wild übrig. Damit kann ich praktisch keine Battles mehr in Diamond/Champion gewinnen, das Spiel macht so keinen Spaß mehr.

Schade, das könnte die eine Änderung zu viel sein, die das Game killt. Ohne einfache Bots und möglichst viele Player auf allen Levels funktioniert das Spiel nicht. Es sollte keine großen Hürden geben, um zu spielen und man sollte Player mit Wild-Karten nicht ständig benachteiligen und drängen Rebellion-Karten zu kaufen und in Modern spielen zu müssen.

Was sagt ihr zur neuen Gebühr, um in Wild überhaupt spielen zu können? Wozu soll man überhaupt noch Wild-Karten kaufen, wenn man diese kaum noch spielen kann?

Wild Pass, new additional fee to play Wild Ranked Battles in Splinterlands

Only 4% of players left in Wild?

Splinterlands has now introduced an additional fee to play Wild Battles.

I spent thousands, tens of thousands of dollars on Wild cards and SPS, but now have to pay an ongoing fee to even play with my cards?!

The Wild Pass costs 0.90 USD with vouchers, but is a bit more expensive with DEC and credits and is only valid for one season (2 weeks).

In order to be able to play in Wild, you need besides cards staked SPS to get rewards at all, which actually is like a fee. And now there's this additional fee. Wild Pass.

On the other hand, you can also buy the Wild Pass with vouchers, which you have to save up for.

But the real reason I'm thinking about quitting playing is that the change has made Wild unplayable for me.

I was forced into Champion by the many changes with gold level cards and because of the fee only 4% of the players are left in Wild. This means I can't win any more battles in Diamond/Champion, the game is no longer fun.

Too bad, this could be the one change too many that kills the game. Without simple bots and as many players as possible on all levels, the game doesn't work any more. There shouldn't be big barriers to play/enter and players with Wild cards shouldn't be constantly penalized and forced to buy Rebellion cards and play in Modern.

What do you think about the new fee to play in Wild? What's the point of buying Wild cards if you can hardly play them anymore?

I think it's good way to greatly reduce the oversupply of vouchers.

I hate the fee, all my best cards are for the wild part of the game. I don't have good summoners at a high level for the modern game. I also spent a lot of money on my wild cards. Most of the earlier players do have the wild cards, so they penalise the early adopters.

I thought rewards in Modern are higher anyways.

I hate this change. But I am not gonna quit because splinterlands posts earn me the most.Still it would be nice to receive more for my battle posts especially now when I have to pay a damn fee to even play the game...

I think that the constantly falling price of SPS is the response of the players to the financial policy of the game operator. The changes in the game are so frequent that it is necessary to play the game as a job. Or not play it at all.

Ich bin da inzwischen ganz lange raus, weil ich es nicht mehr spielen mochte, nachdem ich so gut wie nicht mehr gewonnen hatte. Da ist mir die Freude dran vergangen. Hätte ich damals mal meine Karten verkaufen sollen, da waren die 10-20 mal soviel wert. :(

Finde das Gameplay sollte so sein, dass man 80-90% der Battles gewinnt, unabhängig von den Karten, dann würde das Spiel wieder Spaß machen und bessere Karten / SPS sollten einfach nur die Rewards erhöhen.

0.00255774 BEE

Zumindest sollten es nicht 90% verlieren sein.

I hope Splinterlands rethinks the fee introduction decision. Like you said, it has the potential to kill the game. Well, I would say go ahead with your decision to quit if you have thought it through and through. You certainly can't be doing something that takes away more than what it gives.

Thanks for the update. Have a great day.

I still enjoy Splinterlands a lot, nothing will get me to quit.

But I completely understand everyone who is thinking of quitting.

0.00270445 BEE

i m thinking of quitting as well.
just simple maths
lets say that you are excellent and win 120 games with a payout of 1.6sps each time, this means 192sps per season. the current price is 0.0079. that is around 1.5usd.
fuck it... it's not worth my time. especially with the glint shop that gives you basically nothing (everything is soulbound and potions)
I m already searching for another game to give my attention. RIP splinterlands

ps. i love that they paid an expert to "kill" their game xD

Alles zu kompliziert geworden. Ich spiele schon seit längerem nicht mehr. Macht keinen Spass mehr und viele die noch da dabei sind lassen eh Bots laufen. 🤷🏼‍♂️🙁

Schade, dass nichts unternommen wird, um das Gameplay für echte Gamer zu verbessern.

So far I'm not really sure what to think of this change.
I definitely get your arguments and in general I'm also not a big fan.
However I think we need to wait and see how things play out for some time, because having way less accounts playing in wild also means more rewards (at least SPS) for the remaining players.

The change regarding the Rating inflation will take a few days as well. I also played a few seasons in wild some time ago and basically got to Diamond with mostly level 1 cards which did feel very weird to me. I then switched to modern and basically got the same rewards in Silver 3 as i did before in Diamond 2 (wild). I think something similar will happen in wild now. People will drop in Rating, but might actually receive a similar amount in rewards because of the smaller amount of players.

Have to see how it plays out, so far didnt notice more rewards per battle, GLINT rewards and multiplier rather going down.

Some of my friends are lamenting about the change
They seem not to like it

Hey @vikisecrets, here is a little bit of BEER from @thehockeyfan-at for you. Enjoy it!

Did you know that

0E-8 BEE

There's no sense in purchasing it if isn't easy to play them again

0E-8 BEE

It's a pity to deal with all these new fees just to play the game you enjoy. I hope they reconsider these changes soon though, so everyone can keep enjoying Splinterlands without these extra costs. Don't see why that should be added by all means

0E-8 BEE

I quitted this game the moment they launched the soulbound cards , i hated that because it killed the aspect NFT aspect of the game.

now they doing this is a money sucker...

0E-8 BEE

they did it for ban bots.it'll increase bonus because decreasing wild players as others said.and about win rating,when you down a few will match same wild players

0E-8 BEE

I moved back to modern league, but I do think that Wild will change from this. I don't think many bots will stay unless they are the ones that can compete. I see little value in just buying wild cards though.

0E-8 BEE

Ich finde es auch Mist. Ich habe es wirklich gemocht in Wild zu spielen, aber nun sind viele Karten quasi nicht mehr zu gebrauchen. Schade.
