Defense and resistance.

Hello everyone.

Regarding your concerns and questions of screenshots and redeemable items.We have mentioned this several times.. We have stopped showing redeemable items and we do not plan on bringing it back. It's been like this for months.

Also, I would like to ask everyone to * to the topic and not talk about other versions or what is happening there. If you wish to talk about it, feel free to visit their forum and discuss it there. But our forum should focus only on our version.

Have a nice day.

PS: I have mentioned it already but guess my comment got ignored. New clothing gives +def and res.

That is absolutely incorrect. The only reason why you should focus on our version and not on other versions is because the way how we implement updates, new features and how we release new ninjas might be completely different from other versions. We have our own team and German version for example has it own team.

I do not see any valid point in discussing their current update here on our forum (especially in event thread) if their team can't even see your opinions or messages. Plus, feedback about their version is not useful to us. But if you feel the need to talk about it, sure. Go ahead but make your own thread in general section. In this thread you should focus on our events.

I don't see anything pathetic about using screenshot of login screen from china version. It was supposed to demonstrate to you how Main characters look in new clothing. Since there was decision we are not getting loading screen for this clothing, there is also no way for us to show you or take screenshot with English logo.

It should work.

That is correct. We would really like our players to consider our version as our version aka English version and not just copy of Chinese version. But on the other hand, it is not possible. Chinese version is the main version or maybe you could also call it as mother version. So there is no way we could distance ourselfs from that version.

Again, just to clarify my comment. I believe this is forum for English version of the game. Therefore, most of the time and mainly our updates and in-game activities should be discussed here. You are welcome to check or discuss news from other versions (please do it in General section) but it is something that only you will do because no-one from the team will join this discussion. Reason is pretty simple - our moderators are not required to follow other versions but I am sure most of them do due to curiosity. I do know Germany is getting version 5.0 and now hold yourself, we will get version 5.0 as well. What a surprise, am I right? But I think that is not what you would like to hear. I think you would prefer to know when. BUT, that is a surprise.

As for the features that some of you claim may benefit players but we purposely skip - that is not correct. There are currently 2 (if I am not mistaken) features missing from version 3.0. We as team are aware of it, trust me, there really is no need to mention it every single time when new thread is available. It will not fasten the process. Then, there are few more features from current version (Skill experiment, Bond System and more Ninja Exams) that are missing but they will be added. They were not skipped, they were not delayed. Everything is going according to the plan. I understand that because Germany has it you think we should have it too. WRONG. Just because other versions have something we do not have (yet), does not mean it has to be added right away.

This is just my personal opinion - The only reason why I do not like our players following and watching updates from other versions so closely and waiting every single week to check if there is something new, is because it will make you to want it to be added to our version as well (right away, preferably on the same day as another version). That is absolutely okay. I understand you want to be able to enjoy such thing as well. But a lot of people refuse to take into consideration or do not realize release difference between versions. For example, Germany is few months older th*. And that means they get few things before us. I know, it *s but it has to be that way.

I hope this clears all confusion my comment made.

Have a nice day everyone.

I've never said that some features from 3.0 were not delayed. They were and some of you may remember our statements or conversation I had with you guys several weeks/months ago. They were delayed due to serious technical problems and it was not possible for us to add them on time. But later we did add new Group Summon.

What is not delayed are features that are part of 4.0 update. As for Kage Team Instance, it never was part of 3.0 nor 4.0 version.

Again. I would like to ask everyone to focus on the main topic (current event cycle).

Okay. Since you guys are refusing to follow main topic (current event cycle - and no, this does not include past or future updates of the game) I will be closing this thread in advance.

Our main idea behind keeping this thread open was to let our players discuss current event cycle or ask us something regarding new events if something is unclear to you (of course this does not include redeemable items or prices).

Just small note before I close this - Kage Team Instance was never announced nor mentioned in previews of new versions (version 3.0 and version 4.0). I don't know from where you got this information but I advise not to listen or believe everything people says. If you want to make sure just follow our official sites and all new additions and updates will be announced there. Like any other company, we do not share our plans or schedules for future updates for very simple reason - while it is true we have set schedule, this schedule can still be considered as flexible schedule because changes to it can be made anytime. I have tried to explain several times why there were some features from version 3.0 delayed. Now it is only up to developers to decide if and when it will be added. As for rumours of missing or delayed features for version 4.0. Again, it is false information. We have not delayed anything and we still plan to add few more features before updating our game to version 5.0. Just because someone said we were supposed to get it does not mean we were. Only small amount of people (not that our team is that big) know schedule and they are not allowed to share it with public (for a reason I have mentioned above). We are different version, we have different update process and it may look to you as really slow process. What you need to understand is that we are one of the youngest versions of the game and that is a fact we cannot change. There are versions that have features we do not have (% tactics), then there are features that are altered and different from other version (mood system, clothing system). Those are factors (and there is many of them) that management for each version must take into consideration.

At the end of the day, it is you who created this illusion of us purposely delaying or cancelling features and updates. I am not saying it is you (those who are replying to this thread) but there are players who like to toss numbers around like when Oprah was giving cars for free. "We are 2 years behind", "Germany got it last week so we will have to wait 2 months" .. my only questions is - How do you know? Answer is very simple - you don't. I know some of you consider those numbers as estimate time but let me tell you that there are players who are deadly serious about it and then they contact us with messages like "two months passed, where is that or that feature?". Then there are some comments that suggest to hire more people for our version to speed up the process of releasing new features. It is not problem in numbers but in time. You guys expect a lot of things in a very short amount of time. You think it is just about translations (which sometimes I do admit *s but that is something we are currently working on as well and believe it or not, it also consumes our time) but it is also about necessary changes and testing. You would like to have at least 3 features every month - not going to happen because it is not possible. I know this argument is old and overused but it is truth, whole truth and nothing but the truth - China had to wait more than you do to get anything, new updates, new ninjas etc. They also had to go trough this hard process of waiting. I know, waiting *s and it is not your problem that we need to do that, that, make those actions then check that - you do not care. All you want to do is enjoy the game and see regular updates. I get it and I don't blame you.

We are trying to update the game as fast as possible and give you the best experience as possible. Sometimes there are requests that we are not able to fulfil, unfortunately. Then there are also players who ask when we will release new feature and we literally released one last week (I could use oil system as example). It was like some players completely overlooked this feature. Was it something new? Yes. Was it new feature? Yes. We can't satisfy or add feature that everyone will like but we try.

I hope this answers some of your concerns and questions.
