I'd say even with a six figure income, this game is difficult to keep up with in terms of being activley participating in weekly rebates and new updates.
Perhaps irrelevant, the Chinese player ba
Many of the spenders over in China are living on parent's wealth (real estate, family businsses etc). There's a much larger population of players who can actually keep up with these sort of spending and not be drained out.
However here in NA, perhaps your team should review what sort of players are playing your game. People here are working class, many of those younger aged are still in school and typically working minumum wage jobs. You guys are really making these guys sell their organs and their soul to keep up with the updates. Frankly imho the game will not last long at the rate this is going. Spenders tap out eventually, we're all regular folks with a threshold limit on what's affordable what's not in the long run.
Making people pay $500 for not even half of a new ninja is just a big FU to the entire community. Perhaps you have people spending into these events. HOWEVER it is NOT a clear indication that this is the right approach to the NA version. Instead of those weekly surveys on event feedback perhaps you guys should run a poll on people's wage and disposable income. Sell your events ba

Oasis are like our governement. They increase price and hoping for more income, when they'll get more by lowering price so more people will spend
Maybe Oasis can add the Great Plates (with Shisui, hashirama and hanabi frags) event this week even for just 3 days just like the last time.
The only events this week that F2P like us benefit from are Sakura Flowers and the Activity Lucky bag which I think isn't really great at all.
So please bring back the Great Plates just like before and make us happy. :)
Thanks Oasis. :)
@Daiske my dreams got * away again when i saw Total Recharge only way to get him wtf?
A 25 frag pcs for a 500 spin in Lucky Sn@tch is expensive for a f2p, its a rip-off for his original price,
i find AG Konan way cheaper than him on the day it release.
And complete 80 frag cost 30k total ingot recharge is way to much....
Got Broken Dreams again zzzzzz
25 pcs for 500 spin in Lucky Sn@tch that all u get what rip-off)
Complete 80 frag cost 30k total ingot recharge are fking serioulys oasis...
I'm just f2p who saves alot, when Edo Hiruzen is just roughly around 12-18k coupons.
The odd part Angel God Konan is way cheaper on release
You recharge 30k you spend 25k on the wheel + 5k on naruto froggy and you get 80 fragments of hiruzen + 500 rewards from the wheel + 12300 coupons + fukurukumaru deal things, so yes costs way less than 18k ingots. It's just that to get him at that price you are compelled to recharge 30k.
Wow. You seriously just can't stop screwing f2p or low spenders in the ass can you? Worst events i ever saw and fuku 30k for literally nothing, no ninja just a couple of seal scrolls and useless garbage that maybeee will give you 200 power?
Naruto froggy 100 ingots for how they changed it is the best way after jonin medal and monthly fee to spend your ingots if you are low casher and is together with group purchase. There's no better event than this one for low cashers to spend ingots.

Just do like me and do not buy edo hiruzen now. This event is extremely good if you planned to recharge 30k ingots and to spend a 5-10k of them and is as much as good if you planned to recharge 500-2000 ingots and spend 100-800 of them. Is not good only if you care only about getting a full edo hiruzen asap, but is not even that bad considering you actually buy it for 12-15k ingots, it's just that goes together with other things.

What about all those players who were saving coupons for this event? I have group mates that had saved 20k coupons, as f2p players in prep for Edo Hiruzen over the past 6 months. It completely shafts them adding in the 30k recharge event. You say Hiruzen is only 12-15k, but that is pure ingots at that point, coupons become worthless. Gemany had him in Lucky Wheel, as a REDEEMABLE ninja for that 12-15k, which could be gotten completely with coupons. I understand this is week 1 of his release, and Oasis feels the need to make some money, but hopefully they pull the * out of their *s in the following weeks and put out a Lucky Wheel with Edo Hiruzen as a redeemable option for that 12-15k price tag. As for this week, massive disappointment on all fronts.

Maybe someone can justify spending $600 for one me
Back in 1.0 with those Hokages across the spending/recharge rebates were very similar, pretty much all you got out of a 30-40k recharge/spend was just 80 frags of a ninja.
All of those "big" spenders back then (in my server + merged server) quit eventually. Perhaps OAS business model is not to retain players, but instead cater to new players across new servers.
As for me, i'm enjoying this game as a free to play now. The endless spending drained me out, there's no end to it, but mostly when you have any issues with your spending, don't count on support to back you out and do the right thing. This is the main reason why i chose not to support this company ever again.

They will have him redeemable eventually. However, because of the whales that are willing to buy a 1st release of a new ninja, Oasis will continue with this strategy. I too saved enough coupons but I do understand you never spend on the ninja on the 1st release (most of the time). If you can wait for him to be affordable as a f2p, it goes along way in terms of being able to spend on other stuff.
I know right? Hey, did you know Witcher 3 GOTY version is on steam for $20? Comes with all the DLC too, and only $580 cheaper than Hiruzen. Hard decisions this week
Worst events in like forever. Literally NOTHING for F2P. Sakura flowers event? Don't make me laugh. It's the worst event currently in the game. Overpriced rewards and little to no point gain from the flowers. You should've at least thrown in Great Plates event so people would have something to do. You keep pushing all those new characters and completely forgot about the older ones. Bring back Kushina Habanero and Hinata Dreamworld fragments in events. And what about War Era Sannins and Orochimaru Akatsuki? They showed up once and disappeared. Either put more rewards available in events, put more events per week with different rewards or cycle the ninjas more evenly. And is Fukurokumaru outfit only available for coupons now? Why won't it show up in events? It's only ever being put in the Outlet Store.
You recharge 30k you spend 25k on the wheel + 5k on naruto froggy and you get 80 fragments of hiruzen + 500 rewards from the wheel + 12300 coupons + fukurukumaru deal things, so yes costs way less than 18k ingots. It's just that to get him at that price you are compelled to recharge 30k.
Sad part im f2p from the start i played, i dont have the means/afford to recharge Dx
So i rather wait next week if they put him in event spend coupon and redeem ( i have 30k coupon from months of saving )

This, so very much this. Frankly, it's downright insane to expect anyone to pay this kind of amount for 1 character on 1 game. China is doing it right, like I said. And I'd guarantee people get a lot more enjoyment out of it, and that's ultimately the point for players, isn't it? For those kinds of real money prices, people could go out and buy a console, or upgrade their PC, and possibly still have money for full games. I feel bad for players, overall, not just those of us who are F2P (or mostly F2P), but P2W too, because everybody is getting gouged at such costs.
You earn more long term by keeping costs low, and expanding and keeping userba
