Vote: What would we like to see removed from PG3D?

[...]

I thought it have this poll just to give the community the opportunity to display things we don't like about this game. The reason for this is that we have several threads here on suggestions for future updates with many great (and not so great) ideas, despite this however Rilisoft seems intent on pursuing updates to the game which are not requested and in fact opposed and which tend to unbalance the gameplay. Whether Rilisoft will implement many of our better ideas in the future is uncertain but I feel that there is only one clear reason why they would continue to pursue their own ideas, that is because they are unclear as to how the whole community feels about them and they may be unaware of the level of dissatisfaction (or love idk) for their self imposed additions to the game. The most contentious issues are related to armor/mechs/jet packs and the gem system, please let me know if there are other major areas of concerned I have missed. So please vote and show your stance, this way we will know whether Rilisoft is concerned about the opinions and desires of its community or is merely a self serving company, judging by their reactions to the concerns raised here. Thanks to everyone who votes. Feel free to comment below.

I would be so happy if ALL of these were removed.
Armor: Overrated. Too many people buy full ruby armor with real money (as well as ALL of the OP weapons) when they first begin, thinking it will help them win every game. And in most situations, it sadly does. This makes gameplay for others unbalanced because not everybody has armor/stong weapons to counter it. It's just another money-grabber so noobs can win.
Mechs/Turrets: Stupid and overrated. A gem-grabber that tricks noobs. These are able to defeat most players, but after the timer runs out and all remaining items run out, the noobs will buy more, wasting more gems unless they pay real money.
Gems: The one that started most of this madness. Nobody expected them, nobody wanted them, nobody needed them. They are too hard to get, and many of the stronger weapons cost a lot of them, forcing you to either wait a long time or pay real money ONCE AGAIN.

 

[Gatorrex]

I would say modify them.
Armor: since guns now are much stronger than last time, we should nerf them instead of removing them. You wil get 1 shot by almost every gun if you have no armor. The max armor now is 50. I would say nerf so that the max armor is 20.
Mech/turret: yes, remove them from the normal modes (team battle, deathmatch...) but add something like mech mode. Everyone spawn with a mech and when their mech dies, they die.
Gems: its either you remove them or add 1 win=1 gem

 

[ElectricShrew65]

In my opinion, these things should be removed.
- Crossbows and bows. Everybody hates them.
- all plasma weapons, since they're just horrible (except the plasma releaser)
- the shoot through wall feature
- dragon breath, since it is too OP
- FREAKING RUBY ARMOR
- the new coin system. Return the old coin system. Hey @RiliSoft, ya hearing this?
- dark mage wand
- FREAKING DATERS!!!!! Although it's a problem being fixed and the dater hater did have a positive effect on this problem.
- gems

 

[ThorneStroke]

JUST ALL OF THE GEMS AND ARMOR AND TURRET AND MECHS. I loved PG3D before 8.0.0. The game was balanced. Then 8.0.0 came out, and on the first day I liked it. Second day I liked it. Third day I felt like murdering this game. 9.0.0 came out. 1st day: It was, Eh?. 2nd day: I GIVE UP ON THIS GAAAAAME.
Story of my life.

Umm are you from 7.0.0 or something? Nobody uses bows and wands anymore because they are useless. I think dragons breath is underpowered because it does so little damage. Have you ever heard of a laser minigun and the new dater hater? Yeah, the laser minigun does like 10 damage per shot and the dater hater does 30, And they both shoot decently fast. Ruby armor? Yeah its quite op and you should get it even if you think it will be unfair to others. You will be fighting full ruby armor users every game when you get to higher levels. Im lv 26 and everyone i battle have at least crystal armor, and the only way to get kills is prototype. Too little coins? Go play time survival. I own eveything that cost coins and i have too many coins now. Daters? Just turn off the freakin chat and get free kills. I hardly see daters anyways because they are so easy to kill.

 

[€@$¥ kïłł]

I think most of the stuff people want removed is just cause they don't have it. Things like the ruby armor for example. But the diamonds, mechs, turrets, and invisibility just feel like rilesoft is grabbing for more money. That's one reason I like Gatorrex's idea about 1win=1gem.

 

[Feesh]

get
rid
of
the
flipping
GEMS!

This currency has ruined the game, turned it into P2W and potentially decreased Rillisoft's positive reputation. Armour, Turrets, Mechs and Invisibility potions need to be seriously dealt with, as these items require no skill whatsoever and are completely game-breaking if used simultaneously. Heck, if they brought all the old potions back to replace them then it'd be a lot more fun and balanced.

RS, sort this out, please.

Exactly how I feel. NO MORE GEMS!

 

[Theope~FTW~]

i would like to get rid of gems or make a way to obtain them and of course armor and get your money back plus some Extra 100 coins for all the hours we spend upgrading our armor

yes, except that the crossbow is still very effective against low armour people. And yeah, the gem gear should be removed

 

[Gatorrex]

See rilisoft? Everyone likes my idea. 1 win=1 gem. Sorrynotsorry i spammed all your fb posts and forums since 7.0.4 about this (i think i got blocked from commenting in fb by doing this). Im not a developer, but im pretty damn sure that adding 1 win=1 gem is easier than adding killcams, 6 new weapons that cost gems, a bunch of maps and fixing the fast reload glitch. Yes i know you are going to make ways of getting gems in future updates but can you just like... hurry up a little? I dont mind a small update that adds only 1 win=1 gem.

Remove gems

1.No not everyone hates the bows! Look at Katniss Everdeens!
2.Omg that's not even a reason! Who cares if they're horrible! People still buy them!
3.Its a freaking laser! WTF do you expect?! For it to bounce off a wall?!
4.Dragons Breath? Get armor and improve yo skills! As OP as it is I don't see a complaint for the Freeze Ray along with it! Most people can survive this with even wooden armor (me in the past) with a Hellraiser!
5.Meh. I'm doing fine with the new coins system anyways
6.Just leave it be! I'm doing a "Mage" class play through right now! And it's not even that OP!
7.OMG!! Dude daters just give you free coins! Put it that way! Pretend that they are nice people lol!
8.Idk about gems

 

[Hayabusa]

Shut your traps and deal with the game. The game is different now and there's nothing you can ever do to change it. Even if the whole forums decides to vote yes, people outside the forums will still outnumber us by a ton. My suggestion, Deal with it! Your precious 7.0 days are over. Nothing you can ever do will change what they implemented. If you're ever tired of the new stuff being added, then feel free to delete the game. I, on the other hand adapt to what they throw at us. I already have my cash at the ready, if they decide to make this a completely Pay-to-Win, but for now, it's still enjoyable without paying for the game.
People with armor either payed for it or worked their butts off in matches to earn them. People used money to buy gems. The money they bought is cold hard cash either earned or asked their parents to buy it and they complied.
You people have no right to complain. You're all just consumers who got the game for free. You don't finance their development, the people who payed gems do.

 

[U.N. Owen]

I will play the game under these circumstances
1.1 Win=1 Gem
2.Nerf some weapons
3.Nerf Armor
4.Make Mechs take in more damage by explosive guns
5.More weapon attributes (Armor Piercing, Fire burning damage , Etc.
6.Remove Turrets (Too OP)
7.Old Boots and Capes
8. Creative Names
9. Variant Versions of maps (Such as a snowing version of the Pirates! map)
10. Cheap Cosmetics (Be a fancy idiot)

Why should we shut our traps? Do you wish for us to stop posting altogether? I think we should be able to express about how we feel about some stuff on PG3D in a professional manner(meaning no cussing in people's faces). I don't care if I don't pay for gems and 'finance' the game I can still put my thoughts on what I think about a few things in the game.Though it is true 7.3.0 days are over. And who says I have no right to complain? Yes some complaining is just useless and annoying but I do believe that some complaining isn't that bad. And also not to be mean or anything but who gave you the right to tell use to stop posting our thought about what we think about the game of something related to the game?

I'm glad that you have expressed your opinion but there's no need to criticise the opinion of others. The point of this vote isn't to reminisce about what we once had but more so to work out what the feeling of the community is about some of the ideas Rilisoft has put in on its own advice and is now working hard to remedy. For example, even though we may have differing opinions about the role of gems, I think most of us can agree that their needs to be some way to actually earn them. Basically it is about giving them feedback. In my opinion this is the best feedback we can possibly give them, Rilisoft of course don't have to listen to us but since they are claiming that they are, despite the fact that they have added many updates which haven't been requested, I thought I'd give them the opportunity to observe our response and then act as they please. The aim is to understand whether they actually care about opinions or if we are just wasting our efforts in giving them our ideas or expressing our concerns. My final point is that we are trying to improve the game, this will benefit all of us, so you shouldn't have any objection to that.

 

[Hayabusa]

You people lack the different views on the different kinds of people in the community(Not just in the forums). Everything RiliSoft does or makes to try to appease the people will fail and work. Not everyone has the same crappy mentality. Everyone will always criticize and rejoice the things they add. Imagine this now. RiliSoft removed the armor. The whole PG3D community will complain and spam RiliSofts Profile and Email. Considering majority of these users wear Ruby. Your all just asking for chaos. Most of you people only think what you want. Have you people even considered the reactions of others. No, you all throw your ideas, because you're the only one who thinks it's good. Sure some others will agree, but have you considered the others that disagree. No! Just because your idea has received positive comments, doesn't mean they'll always be praised by the community.

Once again I'd like to thank you for your opinion. I encourage people will all different points of view to make their points. However, you've made your point and I've responded as best as I can, so please don't keep repeating your comments unless there is something you forgot to say earlier. Just to be clear, this isn't a popularity contest and the 'winner' isn't necessarily the best choice or the right choice, I'm more looking at the trend of opinions, if you have voted, you will see what I mean and I'll comment on that when we get more votes. As far as I'm concerned I treat all opinions equally, I hope you can do the same.
