  1. What's really neat about this is that it reminds of the old official Main Menu, stylistically. Really cool, though square menus are a bit more practical space wise.
  2. Guys, new FUN event! Let's all celebrate the funeral of queen elizabeth together!!!! FREE TOKENS TO CELEBRATE THE QUEEN! ...Yeah no, that doesn't seem like a good idea to me somehow. Go grief her IRL, we're not going to do funeral events.
  3. Hi Pilots, We've done a small server update to solve some recent issues with the game. Since KIN was causing an increasing amount of issues both server and client sided, we've removed KIN from all remaining accounts. Please report it if you still see it after re-opening the game. We've generally cleaned up the 'special' accounts, some accounts that had special features lost them as a result. Our apologies for any inconveniences related to this. We've further improved the payment system, making it more solid and much, much faster. This should solve the issue where it was taking excruciatingly long for a purchase to process, forcing one (or even multiple) relogs to get the tokens. Thanks for your patience with these problems and have a good week!
  4. Typing /tokens in the SM chat would give tokens every time. Now it just works occasionally.
  5. We're currently executing a precautionary backup of our data as the system is not running all backups correctly since the issues yesterday. We do not expect downtimes to come from this, but nevertheless some slowdown or small (<2 hours) down time could happen. We expect to solve the underlying issue either in about 15 hours or in about 40. This is expected to have no downtimes but could lead to one of up to 6 hours. Thanks for your patience!
  6. We rarely disband clans, but we reserve the right to do so in cases where it seems the clan has a high amount of bans compared to other clans. For top clans, we generally have the highest requirements. A top clan can have roughly *2* bans in a month period before getting a warning, if any further bans happen in the warning period, the clan will most likely be disbanded. This is up to the discretion of staff, depending on the severity of the offenses done, the history of the clan and the cooperation shown by the clan, in addition to considering other factors (such as general behavior in game). Thankfully cheating has been rare since the update solving "multitabs", but we expect leaders to remain vigilant.
  7. The server is currently down due an unknown infrastructure issue. We are looking into it with our partners. Please be patient as we look into a fix, thank you! Edit: We have managed to fix the issue and are planning steps to prevent it from re-occuring in the future. Thank you!
  8. Same, I do generally encourage refraining from rewards when possible - obviously it doesn't matter to Gato how many people join Marija and Pavka wanted to give participants something nice. I think almost 10% getting a benefit from a raffle is higher than you'd reasonably expect from a raffle, but that's me. I don't usually expect to win those... I hoped players would appreciate their attempt to give them something nice while still keeping it fun, but if more people feel the way you do, obviously they'll learn and the mistake won't be made again.
  9. Frankly if people start whinging about rewards instead of having fun, then indeed next one will have no rewards at all (if there is a next one). Just cut it out and enjoy, you knew what you would (and wouldn't get) up front, if you dont think the experience was worth it, so be it, don't join next time I think most people had fun and that's all that matters, right?
  10. Again, there’s a difference between criticism and just complaining based on non-fact. Mix boxes on *some* difficulties on *some* portals had a tiny (<1% is the highest I found) chance of dropping L-M’s, but most had none. They also didn’t drop every run on those. I did mention most People did farm normal a fair bit I am pretty sure - it had the highest rate of mix boxes. (Significantly higher than insane, for whatever reason). You can farm normal missions for epics just fine, or use base. I would not recommend a newb to spend tokens on getting epics from a portal, and without tokens more likely than not you wouldn’t get anything useful. I invite you to start a poll on returning the old portals - if it wins out I promise we’ll roll back the change to portal drops, I’d be more than happy to.
  11. Hi Pilots, First of all, best wishes for these holidays and I hope you are all spending a wonderful time with your families. Of course some of you don’t celebrate this holiday, but even then it’s always good to spend some time with your loved ones. Many of you have already discovered our portal. I hope you’re all managing to get the rewards for that between whatever else you have planned today. We’ve now also given out a nice Christmas box again, it’s similar to last years’ except we’ve made some very unlucky edge cases impossible, so even the unlucky ones will hopefully get something nice! You should get it in your notifications automatically - don’t worry, not everyone will get it at the same time and it can take up to 24 hours to deliver. You can also simply log onto the desktop version to get the reward, failing that. Merry christmas everyone and have fun!
  12. We’re open for legitimate criticism, just not for false implications or outright disinformation from a toxic angle, which happens a lot here. Simple fact is a fraction (<1% of runs for most of them on normal) of past boxes were fortune boxes, and said fortune boxes had, on the best ones of the last few years, a 2% L-M droprate on less items. It was abysmal and we’re not interested in being a platform for people to imply that the boxes which far exceed the drops you’d be able to get for free unless absurdly lucky are somehow similar to a generation of people who haven’t experienced the ‘fun’ of spending a day farming for some epics. Chances on regular old mix boxes was 0% on most portals - only epics as legendary, no L-M. So sure, think what you want, give fair criticism and think back of the good old days of memory where all was better. But similar to the “I miss when all myths were sold in shop” or the “legacy where everything was for free”, we have no intention to allow people to convince a bunch of newbies their rosy memories are fact and get entirely the wrong idea… I think that’s fair, this is our forum after all. You’re free to make your own for that
  13. Because we believe it’s more fun, interesting and less frustrating to complete these portals once and get a nice reward for it, than spend all day farming and more often than not ending up with only epics. If you’re here just to whinge about things, could you please do that somewhere else?
  14. There's no harm upgrading your base - the base is the most efficient way of progress either way and if it's disabled, you keep the upgrades if you click the enable button.
