View Full Version : If Raid Boss health is more than doubled...

There's a graphic making the rounds in some GroupMe rooms that is very disturbing if it's real. Some troll may have had too much time on his or her hands, but the picture shows that this upcoming Raid Boss health will be more than doubled since last time. Level 100 health is over 20 billion. Level 95 health is over 17 billion. Level 90 is almost 15 billion. Level 85 is 12 billion. Like I said, this graphic could be completely made up, but this would mean that a Level 85 this time would be FOUR BILLION MORE health than the Level 100 last time. I would like to say to the powers that be, if this is true, you have completely erased the good things you have done this cycle. The nice LTB, eliminating accomplices, the good prizes during Street Assault, changing up the battle prizes and putting buildings in certain tiers...all of that will mean NOTHING if you have more than doubled the health in Raid Boss. When top 150 teams are struggling to take down a Level 70, the event is ruined. I sincerely hope this isn't true. However, if it is true, it's going to have a real negative impact on this game. You guys were doing so good. You've been taking a few steps forward. This would be a giant leap back.

RB has prizes for beginner, normal, and elite. Why does every syndacite feel they should finish all events for free. I'm glad they have finally raised health boss to complete elite. Kind of not elite if everyone can do it lol

Get ready for the free whiners to overwhelm board. Most top 250 plus will finish easy. Much fewer normal. Very few elite. Lots of jumping. Assuming there is a wrapper. Buy gold b4 event as you will need it. Is what it is.

Who completes raid boss for free? Teams that put the effort in should have a real chance of doing so (completing that is, not completing for free) that isn't merely dependant on spending thousands of dollars. If by "elite" you really mean "rich" just be honest and say it. ;)

Indeed mate. Everybody should not be able to complete every event. What's the point in that? As events are done, it should become harder to complete them, as players are getting stronger. Crime City goes on with or without some players. Happy gaming mate.

What do you presume the "elite" should be? When the boss health was 11b, T20's struggled to finish.

I'd like to know what syns you guys are in. The passive people who think only the uber rich should be able to finish RB are either one of those uber rich people who are on a Top 10 team, or you're in a Top 500 team. You don't get any of the great prizes as it is, so of course you don't care about them raising the health. If true, this negatively impacts everyone. The uber rich are going to have to spend more, and the Top 500 teams are gonna struggle to finish Normal. How is that fun? How does that make for an enjoyable game experience?

A strong team in the top 100-200 should be able to finish elite with a diligent effort. This rumor, if true, is exactly why this company continues to urinate on its customers. One step forward, two enormous leaps backward. Why is it so difficult for this group to find a balance between fun and angering their customers? Nice job monkeys.

That's the exact kind of counter intuitive mentality that has resulted in this game being where it is today.

No game ever should become more difficult based on how long you play or how much success you have. That is the same as saying the more experience you get the worse you become, or being successful will only increase difficulty levels to the point of being too challenging or too expensive to complete.

"Elite" should mean that new and inexperienced players won't likely finish unless they spend a lot of time or money. The more experienced veteran players who have been around long enough to know how to get the goals done are the "elites" who should be able to finish all the Raid Boss syndicate goals.

sounds fake to me , if they have raised rb it will probably be 10/11 b for lvl 100. The thing is with rb the ones that are willing to spend alot of gold on the event can do it gold free because of spending alot on other events. Then you got the middle gold range syn they will just use mainly jumpers and some gold if needed ,then you got your low /free syn they won't even bother on the bits that cost gold . I think the reason why they made the rb more easy was because when they kept raising it alot of syn just refused to spend gold on the event so i doubt they would raise it so high.

I see it coming... They did a Massive increase in MW just this past week. Boss 150 was 48 Billion. then they made it 108 Billion. So a little over a 100% increase. The bosses between (which matter the most) had anywhere from a 200-700% increase. Good times.... It will come here...

Given Gree's own statement that participation in epic boss events (in MW anyway) is on the low side, massively increasing the health seems counter-intuitive.

As always, these decisions are driven by bean counters. Such people should never ever be allowed to run a business.

That makes no sense. The object of the game is to become stronger in order to make events a bit easier to complete each time (not necessarily for free). Gree just reduce it to a Sisyphean task by awarding prizes that should help the player then snatching it back by making the events a bit harder the next time around.

Object of the game is to build a stronger character. The amount of gold usage should create a gap from those that choose not to use gold. If a team can't finish an elite part of the event it shouldn't be looked upon as something negative or a flaw. All team events have been way too easy lately. Either way the game goes on.

The mindset of the "elite" 1%ers is to dominate whatever sphere they happen to be operating in - it matters not whether that's in business or a silly phone game. That's why some of them will spend any amount so not to have a splash of red on their news that tells them they ain't in control. It's rather sad.

Where did you get this? There is no way gree is going to ruin raid boss, people aren't likely to spend money on it either way. The only thing they would try to be doing is to get more gold out of select players. They don't care if teams who used to finish free don't finish anymore they just want people to buy more gold in the end.

Weasel I couldn't Agree with you more. I understand if you are a veteran player and managed to get some respectable amount of game stats you should have an easier time finishing this. but making every event a gold grab even if you have managed to accumulate stats, its ridiculous. We didn't triple our stats since last raid boss. this is not even to account for growth this is their desperate way to try and get more gold sales. they don't realize that most top 250 teams have light gold players that will spend a little bit of gold to help just finish an event, but will not spend a vault each time. also, right now what GREE needs is to try and hold on to all players they got, not get rid of the few that they got now.

You don't have to believe whats in a chat room, go into the summon screen and look at the boss health yourself. The chat room chart is correct, 20 bil health for a lvl 100. Lvl 75 has the same health as a 100 from last rb.

If this game is all about taw, how about they just pay gree directly for new content? Clementine can we get them a price chart for their own event ?

02-16-2015, 12:17 PM

I'm puzzled why any corporation would act in the manner Gree is behaving. Alienating a large group of players is not how you stay in business, if that is indeed what you want to do with Crime City. Why not make the game challenging to the largest group of players to build goodwill and enlarge the gold spending population? The big spenders will spend regardless of event. That is true in every game. The middling player is who needs to be targeted and brought into the spending-fold. This is because that is by far the largest group, size-wise, of the gaming population. Gree does the opposite of enlarging its gold spending population and I'm uncertain why. Not a single ounce of goodwill is expended to the masses that are not in TAW, SAS, or any of the other multi-vault per player per event syndicates.

It's a shame that GREE raised the bosses to level's that make it almost impossible for the average free/low gold spending teams/player's to finish even the normal level goal in this event. I could see/understand raising points by 2 level's under the point's formula to make it more difficult, but 5-6 level's which is what it looks like to me, is idiotic to do all at once. Incremental increases as needed if to many team's finish elite because it's too easy is part of the game.

So there must be something they are banking on.

Could it be that they determined that around 600 people are driving their revenue so they only need to focus on that 600.
Thus, make the events difficult enough that these individuals who are already primed to spend get a chance to spend.

The rest be damned.

It's felt like that for a while, but with this Raid Boss, it's a little more obvious. This is GREE's middle finger to 90% of the players. All I know is, they pretty pray to every God and Goddess they can think of that the 10% never turns their back on the game. That's a small basket to put all your eggs into.

So u go around locking threads tonight but u do not wish to comment on how you where wrong on the raid boss health chart floating around before it started....

You shared your opinion before it started and now that it is started u know longer wish to share it with us

Why ?

I said "most" things in those chat rooms are false. I did assume that the RB health would increase this cycle as it usually does, but definitely not to this extent. I predict the top 10, 20, and maybe some of the top 30 will only finish sadly ;/

Get ready for the free whiners to overwhelm board. Most top 250 plus will finish easy. Much fewer normal. Very few elite. Lots of jumping. Assuming there is a wrapper. Buy gold b4 event as you will need it. Is what it is.

I suspect you are a gree employee venting to the masses.
