Can you explain what kind of preparations? I've not looked at the coding of the game or anything, but it sure seems to me like going into the shop and adding frags for a ninja (or even easier, replacing a ninja already there) would be way easier then adding events that need their on logo's, pictures, icons, currency (such as keys), random drop chance added to instance sweeps, yet another item that needs to be added to the store for the length of the event and so on... And then, you are adding ninja with frags in that limited shop/event. How does that take less preparations then simply adding/changing a ninja into the current shops?

If you guys are simply holding off (like most of us believe) so you can milk those ninja in events, I would respect you alot better if you simply came out and said that. Don't string us long like you guys are working on it, cause if you were, the shop update would take alot less work then the events you put up weekly, and even at that you put up more then one every week. My issue isn't the fact you don't have the update, its that you guys told us it would be "soon" over 2 months ago. If you guys really are working on it, explaining what is holding you up would go a long ways in calming alot of those waiting for they update we were told we would be getting "soon".

As for the events this week, it doesn't look bad. Most will depend on what the rewards are. So I would agree with those points that it would be great to have a picture of the rewards when you post the details as well. Thank you for the heads up though :)

To be fair, I'm simply asking for an explanation. Whether it is technical or not doesn't make a difference to me. I'm simply asking what "preparations" they are talking about, and gave a few of my reasons why Technical should not be one of those reasons.

I then went on to say that My issue isn't with the fact we don't have the update, as much as we are being strung along. We were told "soon" 2 months ago, and since they brought it up here that it was due to "preparations", I asked for more details. I even said that I would understand, and even respect them more then I do now if they were honest with the reason they are holding out, Even if it has to do with milking events. I understand they need to make money, I don't understand why they need to string people along and not just be honest with them.

As far as balance go, I don't understand what you mean. The shop update would make the game More balanced. It also all depends on who the ninja even are that will be added. Tendo, 1st Hokage, 100 Puppet Sasori, and other super rares are not going to be in the shop update. P2W will still be a thing. But this isn't worth talking about, because with out details, we can't talk about game balance.

Anyways, I'm going to stop here. I didn't mean to get into all this, but the fact someone addressed the shop update, but didn't give any answer that made sense made me call them out and ask for more details.

Hey, I just want to say Thanks for the info. I know you guys do alot trying to manage everything, but it is nice to get some kind of ETA, more so if you guys already have everything planed out.

So again, Thanks you. I'm off to get me a healer from this event now :P
