Just uninstalled and am leaving a 12m GP account for dead. I don't care any more. It's the principle that bothers me the most about this update. You could buy a new AAA PC game each month for the money you need to drop on this **** mobile game to remain somewhat up to date.
I was already tired of the gear grind, of the shard grind, of the hours spent every day just completing this and that and every other **** thing under the sun. And now we're all locked behind a double paywall... This is a mobile game, the servers just store data, they don't need to instance lobbies running physics engines for hundreds of players to face off in real time. If the investors are more important than the players then so be it, lets see what revenue you get from said investors once the player base dries up and the whales no longer have dolphins to prey on.
