My report this morning was along the same lines. I however asked several questions I don't expect answers to. This battle as it is really a disappointment, other then the toon's being targeted (that are in need of tu unites) it's as boring as it can get. One point I did make is this battle is so easy I would let my daughter go in without supervision, and I won't allow that with VP. It requires no skill other than dodging golf balls or ceo if your the target.
After Law was released I continued to play even though that was a disappointment. It was the friends I made in the game that kept me playing. I'm sure I may continue to play even if they don't change it, but not anything like I have in the last 4+ years. I've already noticed since the testing started that I prefer to go sink Skip's ship on POTC then sign into Toontown Test.
Now stock options are impossible to get leaving very few able to CEO at scheduled runs. I have two toons needing another part or two, can't finish those either. With only 4 toons suited one that needs golf courses to refill options, sooner or later even I won't be able to go back. We know they took over a week between updates, the more bug reports filed doesn't seem to help. All of our comments on how to improve the final battle were ignored, but again they asked us our opinions?
I attended 2007 Toonfest, the Dev's seemed so excited about upcoming releases, I can hardly believe they find this one exciting. Sure they mentioned Boss HQ wasn't the last one, but with what they are giving us, if not for the awesome friends we've made over the years I can see even more long time testers/players leaving. Wouldn't you think they figured out by now it's the adults that play for hours, pay for more then one account is what makes them money? If my daughter didn't ask me for help with tasks when she couldn't read, I wouldn't have gotten hooked, and up til we went to last years toonfest, she had lost interest long ago. So the more than $1000.00 I paid over several years was for an adult playing not a child. That was one point I made to them. Nicole now has loads of friends that play, but parents won't pay so they are stuck in TTC unless they are sneaky enough to ask for help?
The CFO is still the best release they made, sheesh any testers been in River to CFO lately? ROFL, we have and let me tell you it's still like going with randoms when it was first released. That battle requires skill, both in craning and stomping, something most randoms don't have. It can be comical if you have a sense of humor and a good friend that goes out Sunday nights and can be talked into anything after getting home
I have 3 Law Keys on open, a lot of those runs were done in River, that one doesn't require much skill as I only had to bail maybe 2 times through 3 keys. We really need everyone to send bug reports, with those comments on how to improve the Boss battle, or were going to be stuck with what were testing, although that is still a pretty good chance anyways, at least we tried to give them idea's before they release it to the open server and lose many more long time players. Then maybe they'll listen in the future. I've already talked with Nicole about transferring toons to one account, that means deleting many double key toons I've left retired since they got their cash keys, not to mention the retired maxed toons on test.
