One major thing absent from this wipe was a sale to include an influx of new players. We are stuck with the same "megas" same names, same people, playing the same way. Combine it with the devs lack of being able to balance the game and deal with cheaters, it makes for a very stale game that most will tire of very quickly. We occasionally get new players that are excited to learn and experience only to find out it is not the experience they were hoping for. If that doesn't exhibit the need for big changes, I don't know what does.
The devs, need to get off their high horse, stop catering with these megas. Day 3 of the wipe we were fighting level 85 guys that had 2 crabs on the island. Sound BALANCED? FIX and Balance your game and new people will stick around! Who cares if you lose the megas! Thats a few hundred people at this point! Let less toxic balanced and competitive game play be the new course for atlas!
