Post count: 759Reputation: 415Joined:People are complaining with their wallet. My team did 50 laps last race, this race we finished 25 and are taking rest of week off. Other chats you read about teams doing same thing. I see a lot of the teams that would normally go 100 laps stopping at 50 (or first). They are definitely losing money on this race and I’m sure there will be changes.

Post count: 588Reputation: 212Joined:Location: VenezuelaHi all . . . I do agree with what's been said so far and have to say my team was one of the teams going for the 100 laps. I believe a team race event should be focussed mainly on "team effort" as the first word describes itself and make quests more doable somehow in my opinion. Every team gets to choose and decide how far to race based on rewards , especially the ranked monster. For that I agree that next race we should have a more clearly and complete info about the monster so we all know what we're racing for and how much we're willing to spend for it. Regarding the current race, we decided to stop at lap 50 and not continue because of the heavy investment needed for each member in order to accomplish those 100 laps based on the demanding quests all the way through. We really didn't mind the special C, UC and R quests, they were doable . . . But the amount of gems hatching each one (UC and R) were kinda draining all our gems slowly and to wait a couple of hours to get 'em done wasn't an option if the goal is to race in spite of the extra days we were given

Also we talk about greed so much, some will do it because they see an easy win and if other teams see broken boycot promises they will break theirs.Now I really should change my name in OP

. Most mind numbing ridiculous event that has only encouraged all kinds of unscrupulous behaviour, now getting a hammering for an unreleased monster & SP/take two trying to recoup expenses to some of the good to great introductions in the game. Good job on war masters, with the exception of Thalassa, mad squid, good job on relics, good job in bug fixing especially koopigg
, but seriously, it means you're actually trying to fix all the bugs...& many other things, I can't remember now. Happy New Year, SP! Please continue with the bug fixing, still waiting on recently possessed

I'm here to tell you the rate of retirement has been on the rise, especially in the last six months. It's obvious to anyone trying to keep a team going at full capacity these days. Six months ago we were beating recruits away on a daily basis. Today, we struggle to maintain 30. Our team has not changed, nor has our ranking. And, we're not the only established team having these issues.

We did 50 as we always do, and financially I didn't see it as any worse than any other race if you consider the extra time we got to do the longer breeds/hatches. We hadn't ruled out 100 until word circulated about the ridiculous cost.
However, all that is irrelevant to my OP. This thread was intended to address lack of communication in situations where the benefit TO ALL to be more transparent greatly outweighs the desire to keep things shrouded in secrecy.

You cannot nerf an unreleased monster about whom there was no official info.
Bad communication is SP's fault, still racing in the dark is totally fault of the players.

I do agree with what @Ekto-Gamat said . . . miscommunication prior the race from SP, although it was already suggested that next race we get the option to test the monster just like we test a Warmaster whenever is released a new one so we can see and decide for ourselves whether if the monster is worth racing and spending for or not

Racing in the Dark
Post count: 119Reputation: 170Joined:Location: Philadelphia Eagles CountryFrom what I've heard, the monster was definitely nerfed from when we first learned about him. AND the reality of the ambiguous skill descriptions turned out to be the lesser of the possibilities. I won't say the monster's useless, but it doesn't come close to having the impact we once believed.
SP's continued silence leads me to believe the whole series of events was calculated. They knew the monster seen from early data-mining would turn heads, then the skill descriptions on the wiki would keep us on the hook through the race.
Now the question is, will they continue this practice or be a little more open in the future? My money's on the former. Come on SP, I'm begging here, prove me wrong.

If you’re not a spirit monster you have nothing to fear since this guy hits like a wet noodleThanks, that's a much fairer assessment than comparing him to Haymann.
Agreed, he probably is no Neobuki, Burotgor (who by the way, became mostly A class thanks to Elvira) or Gakora.
His use is more 'niche' than general, but really, Xiron is a magic spirit, the most used Nemesis, and will ALWAYS face this guy in magic and spirit wars.
I can also think of some nice ways to abuse his AOE guard down though.

Yup, everything won't feel like a scam if SP just provide the necessary info for the players.
For example is this Makugan going to be another monster whose cells will become untradeable? If so, I think it would change a lot of player's mind whether or not to spend gems or money to get her cells from chests and survival dungeon.
I certainly would not if it means I have to buy very overpriced gambling chests to rank her further in the future (like the recent Cain chests).

"Monster Information
We know how important it is to have as much information as possible about the Monsters we release.
For that end, we are thinking about new ways to show stats, traits and skills directly inside the game, even before the event starts.
This might take some time to be implemented in-game. In the meantime we commit to show reliable and detailed information about Race’s Monsters through our social channels (Update Section, Forum, Discord, Facebook)."Thank you, SP. When it comes to monster info, this is even more than I could have asked for. For now, @Marianne-van-Es's stat sheets are awesome as long as they're release early enough!
Now, follow it up with being more open where appropriate in the future, and I promise it'll make a difference.
