Thats ridiculous from what ive seen naruto online is by far the most balanced game out of all browsing games that i have encountered so far and that comes from a f2p yes happened to me aswell but thats the point u pay to get rewarded. from my server 2-3 went jonin but i can still "compete" against them in fact i can win against them only against 2 people i cant at all because our power right now is just a big gap im 31k and they are 41k and 37k i think so please think it over u shouldnt quit for a pointless reason like this one lol..we are f2p for a reason also i have so many rare ninjas like sage jiraya,mei,sasuke playboy,iruka,gnw tenten and im 100% f2p i think thats really good and i bet many people are like me u just work hard until u achieve what u need and want

They have gone too far they have rigged everything in order to cheat players and make money compared to other versions..today i bought that voucher thing 3 times and got 10% each time..everything is rigged

sure it is the most balanced but that is the chinese version...this version is not...everything is overpriced and they don't care about their players

This is a p2w game, in fact all web browser game are p2w game. And the truth is in this game the only balance is the jounin medal.
I guess you're just new that's why you think jounin is op. It's not, if you can play a bit longer and you will see.

if u think the jonin medal is op... bye lol

it not that bad dude this :lol game is p2w game yes but this is the most enjoy able game u can find :lol

Jonin medal boost to power is negligible. The only thing that continuously secures a player stomping other people is they money they spend. The medal itself has good perks but its far from "OP". It honestly levels the playing field for the most part if anything. On my server there are a few 100% f2p players who can stomp medal users. Money isn't everything. If you spend your coupons right and grind for it there isn't anything that would stop you from being just as good. Realistically, the top people on your server will continuously drop money and you wont be able to compete with them anyways. And who knows they may up and quit. But I wouldn't ever quit a game because of a slight disadvantage.

This thread is so ridiculous that I am pretty sure it is b8 :L

Having over priced items sort of helps true ftps
What it hurts are the low/medium spenders, as they can't get much.
So it depends on who you ask.

The Jonin medal is mostly just an early server bonus when levels come fast as hell. Other than that it's literally just a time saver. Bonus exp from plot and elite instances is literally non-existent when they only give a few thousand exp. The bonus coins from survival are nice but not game breaking. The best parts about the Jonin medal are the fact that you get more stamina from the hot springs and that you can instantly complete dailies and instances with wait timers, stages and ninja exam. Other than that it really does nothing after like level 50 when it slows down a bit. If you really thing that people who bought jonin medal are beating you because of just that then you obviously don't understand the game at all.

Also, as people have said, it is a freemium game but it's definitely one of the more forgiving ones to F2P players because you rarely get every bonus all at once. Spending in Naruto Online usually means you are only getting one thing, stats or ninjas, not both. Also, 80% of the ninjas are, realistically, obtainable to all players, spenders just get them earlier.

If you go even a week in any other browser game though, you'll see a world of difference. What $100 does here and what it does over there is disgusting. If someone spends $100 in most other games they get a huge power spike, characters that are exclusive to paying players, which won't be defeated by any free player until months into the game, and they get VIP benefits. So would you rather play the game where players have to pick and choose carefully what they want unless they can spend thousands to get both or the game where you can become a god and get it all at once?

i disagree with that part where you can get "80% of the ninjas for free, spenders just get them earlier".Do you know how long it will take you to get sasuke susanoo as a f2p???over 1 year, and that math is based on getting all seal scrolls from everything and converting all cupons from all source into seal scrolls with 100 cp/seal...so yeah, a f2p will never see how itachi susanoo looks like, also 3rd hokage, ay, 1st hokage, pain tendo, 4th hokage, tsunade(hokage)(should i go on??) oh, and wait till we get jinch treasure, where you will get a rare every 200+ pulls, you'll be happy with 2 ninjas out of 15 possible....this will just get worse, now tell me again how are these realistically obtainable, if you can get 1 super rare/ year and you get a new treasure every 4-5 months...by the time you get sasuke susanoo everybody will have some other OP ninjas that literally pi*s on them...

Man look at me i'm a F2P with 47k power lvl83 and i still haven't use my power ups yet it will boost thousands if i did. Man if you're a F2P you should think wise think advance, my coupons all goes to lucky board. F2P needs only PATIENCE to become stronger, i can compete with P2W's in my server with 55k, 54k,52k depends in your setup and if you're higher initiative you have better chance. I'm rank 1 in survival rank 8 in power and rank 3 in breakthrough. So even a F2P like me gets the ranking right? Don't rush things cause you need to hard work. Got it? :D

And did you bother to count how many ninjas that you can get there are?

I'd say 80% might be a bit of an over estimate, but your 2 out 15 is an just a horrible underestimate.

Granted, it is possible that many of the ninjas that you can get easily are mostly not very useful, and doesn't include any of the super strong ones, but that doesn't affect he proportion of them out of the total ninja pool.

Personally, I have 80 ninjas, there are, according to the training tab, 34 that I don't have(I can see playboy sasuke etc on the list now despite not having frag, so I guess none are hidden now).
The 34 does include ninjas that I could get but choose not to, like chikushodo, and a few I have a very high frag count that no doubt are possible for players to get.
But in any case, I have 80 out of 114, which is 70%. It won't be very hard to get another 5% in a month or so, thou reaching 80%, even if they stop adding new ninjas in, might take half a year or so.
I'm ftp btw.

i understand your frustration man. pricing strategy is dumb to me, customer service is utter *. player experience is meh. At the end of the day i still love the game, just don't like the devs. Also you can play the game fully as a f2p but everything in the game is built around rank and power so it's hard to be f2p, still achievable though. Main drawback with f2p is u gotta be patient. what u can do in 3 months, a p2w will do in 30 minutes lol.

you're missing the point...i mean congrats on your 80% of the ninjas you got when the rest of 20% are the meta creators...Now you misunderstood me, my point was this:- even if you are a collector, you'll never get them all, and if you want to win you'll most likely need those ninjas, the fact that you can get 80% of them does not mean jack sh*t in the game, because no matter how you put it, you'll always lack the essentials

TBH f2p is still achievable to win against p2w.
I am also f2p. U really need to be patient and played smart very very early game. it took me a while to get hang of it, around level 30 when i started. Abuse events what f2p can participate best like lucky board and refinement.

It can be frustrating when u need a lot of seal scrolls to increase ninja pool, better team comps etc. I have about 25 5* ninjas and a few spamable like Kabuto to get seal/summon scrolls through refinement points. I believe that the best option other than GNW. I usually get 3000 points by 3-3.5 weeks. You roughly need 150 points a day.

I agreed with overpricing. I've been trying to save my coupons for Sailor Sakura 3.5-3.8k is just too much. i ended up spent it on lucky board whenever i see one. Highest I saved up was 2.7k -*- then I couldn't bother anymore.

In the end in fight most of time it comes down to your imitative and ninja's barrier. This post was last edited by Petrichor

So what the hell do you actually want then? You originally made the post to whine about medal. Then when people who have paid and have not paid but put in time both say it isn't game breaking you then turn and whine about not getting EVERY ninja. Then when we point out you can get a vast majority over time you whine about how those aren't the strongest ones and leave you out of the meta. It seems there is just no pleasing you. You, me and everyone else playing knew full and well coming into this game that it was a freemium game. That there is no way to compete for the number one spot without spending. However, many a player are still able to have fun and play at their own pace without complaining about so many different things. Top 20 or so is more reasonable and realistic but it sounds to me like you just can't handle not being able to keep up with those who are spending on every level.

Also, you clearly didn't even stop to think about what you were saying. I said that about 80% are obtainable by purely F2P means and, as someone else pointed out, their numbers came pretty * close. I never said you will get the best ninjas at the time by being F2P but you will still eventually get the majority of the ninjas in the game. You even said yourself that some of them could take you a year to get which, unless my grasp of the English language is somehow lacking, literally means you can earn them F2P over time. Which is exactly what I said.

Originally I didn't post to argue but it has become quite apparent that the real issue here is your patience and not balancing. Would I agree that F2P players are a bit behind in some opportunities? Yes, yes I would. However, they are by no means completely shut off from having a chance against low-moderate spenders, especially against someone who ONLY has the medal difference. If you play the game smart and use resources wisely then you set yourself up for a much better experience but then the real issue arises, which I think you as an individual would fail at, and that's being patient.

p2w with bad luck, but f2p with luck ;P
oh.. i forgot that im already buy monthly card:L
