The new equipment is a slap in the face to those who started playing this game years ago. I started playing it because I wanted a game I could build up over time. Now with the last update that effort was useless. Losing to players with 800 million less than my attack over some boots ruined WD for me. My advice is to go back to old MW or use the equipment to add to stats, they have way too much effect on battle outcomes. Even rolling out the old LTB's made what we worked for useless. I say this as I wasn't able to buy some if them when they came out and it never bothered me I just upgraded and bought the ones I could. There is how more talk in my faction of people hating the game because of soldier equip. Most of us now are gold free and will not spend a dime on a sinking game. Gree has shot itself in both feet and have caused this game to sink all because they don't know how to listen to there customers and that shows you will not last much longer.
