Whether or not they want to or realize it, they just did. They unleashed a new level of greed that only the top 2% or 1% of players can stomach.
Players of Game of War and Mobile Strike have hated and loved their Ponzi scheme addiction. Maxing accounts, or mid ranging as a trap. They always knew what was going on until the next update, then they figured it out.
What changed was Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy XV was the testing ground. This new crossover re-skinned GOW/MS copy introduced one new key component to drive in-app purchases. At least that is what MZ thought.
In FFXV you have no idea of what upgrade exists beyond the next one unless you look around at other players. No more published max limits, just all the players guessing. You have no idea what you get for jumping two levels, or how much it will cost.
So how do you introduce this into an established game? Apparently, MZ decided best to just do it without even notifying its own customer service people.
Over the past weekend confused and unaware veteran players where zeroed left and right by the super rich players who figured it out, and could afford to quickly buy past what everybody else thought was max. In fact, the current theory is there is not a max, only how much you spend.
In one weekend, they threw away some of their most valued customers. Customers that have spent tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years playing their free game.
Over the next week or so, I fully expect the isolated players, those playing in their own little kingdom bubble, to start feeling the sting.
Sorry friends I played with and value, this is not the beginning of an end, it IS the end 😦
The Game of War 
Very true, being or let’s say I was1.5 MTTTT player, after mz broke down the hero tree skill.
Add a extra hero to the game, after that they had the players hero tree skill reset, add 3 more building, forcing the players to buy the pack to have you unlock the building, I was furious, after I spend packs on Halloween and cyber Monday, people got 0 because mz reset the players hero tree skill. So now I stopped playing game of war, because I feel robbed. I have payed for the points for the hero tree skill. But to fill the rest of my research points out I have to unlock the new buildings, on top of it. Keep adding update. When you are that big of power it gets bored. Because no strong player can attack you. I have bin there. Had a taste. And I refuse to put more money into this game, and on top of it there only a hand full of players at the wonder, so playing with high tier troops cost a lot, costumer service is a joke. If you have a problem you might be talking to a wall. No. Good bye game of war. Mz wants to run there game to shit. So I saved my wallet 🖕mz

How is what MZ in game of war did legal? I am hoping for a class action lawsuits, ask Wells Fargo, it didn’t go well for them. Please! Someone needs to sue these criminals!
