Hydra has definitely been a mess. Instead of doing a simple fix to break the broken teams, (Corpulent being an excellent example of a simple fix), instead, they basically overtuned in a massive way, essentially having a negative effect on all players, instead of just fixing the broken teams.
The community has changed since they tried this in the past. If we get enough players they will feel an impact. Rallying the community is a great thing.
Gotta love it when people who've spent enough to buy a nice car start telling those of us who buy the monthly gems to stop spending. Drokk and Ash are clowns.
Do a video on how to get your live arena opponent to auto leave a fight before it stats. Just matched against you in live arena. Doing an early morning push about a dozen fights in. No lag, match against you and all of the sudden I auto leave match. It would make a handy guide to know how to get free wins like this.
He is 100% correct but the problem is, it won’t be universal for many to stop spending. The best thing to happen to Raid was King Arthur. Start losing player to that game and I can 100% guarantee there will be changes
Competition needs to last though. For a game to last and be a proper game, needs income=spenders. And the problem is that those who I've to a new game they don't go there to spend at all or enough! So...
I'd be onboard if it actually reduces the cost of playing, the paywall is expensive as fk. And it costs so much to change and level gear. This is daunting as a new player. I've started looking at vids now after the mistakes I've made because it costs so much to fix it.
Mega raids in minotaur, translate button in chat for my Spanish team mates,more options for red books, I get making it a challenge, but without paying it takes me 1 year to fully book a legendary champ is kinda gross. 1 vs 1 against my teammates. And I'm tired of being charged for armor I owned and worked long hours to get to be charged to use them.
THANK YOU COLDBREW!!!!!! finally someone who gets thats its a GAME and doing this is pointless the game is good its also a gacha game that needs to make money this game has listened to players more than most other games and studios am i saying there awesome no but they do listen and like coldbrew said they have a schedule they follow. so all these CCs that keep being negative and are wondering why there views are going down its bc all they do is cry they have taken watching vids on this game miserable which is why i dont sub to 99% of the OG CCs this is a game you can have fun in in many many different ways
Yes I think he's right it he's money 💰 And me I'm New 100 days in they changed hydra I. Now being new can't even get points no more I would like them to change it back or I might stop spending if some of the changes don't change but he's right
That I cannot understand. I am 117 days in the game, and my hydra scores are improving, every week. I'm getting 2nd novice chest on normal, regularly, my hydra teams are getting stronger, and I hope to beat normal soon. So, @anderson318s, why don't you build some of the hydra champs that you have on your roster? Then you could get those lucrative Mithrala shards weekly :-) My clan downs Hydra Normal weekly -- I hope you are in a clan that does that too ;-) I enjoy the game and I focus on things that are important to me to make progress. So yeah, play and have fun in these areas that you like most :-)
Since each boss in the game requires a specific hero, and getting them out of 800 heroes is almost impossible, very necessary free heroes to choose from as periodic f2p rewards 🤔. Plarium need to do this.
I just came from Drock's video and tbh it's the first one I couldn't finish. It's hard to sympathize with him choosing his +4 6 star marius and Galither who's spent more in a month than I have in 5 years telling me to not spend when I just want to be able to fight level 25 in the event dungeon and get a fraction of the gear he accumulated the last time the event was live. Just finished a bunch of masteries which is what alow spend player does while the whales spend gems and throw everything into sand devil and stage 10 fk.
He never told you to not spend? Nobody is, HE himself is not spending because he has pointed out directly to raids devs current underlying issues like the new hydra, no minotaur levels added etc. And they just dont care. This is his decision, not a single sentence included you
@Quickslvr_Gaming hes trying to start a movement and it's only Jan 3. I'm just saying I'm reserving judgement based on the events not some ideology. Hopefully you guys don't participate it makes my life easier.
@@jasonsaulters6027 just weird as hell that you would write that entire comment because he announced he wont be spending money because of the fact that the game is in a bad state
As i have spent a grand total of zero in 4 years playing, i suspect i can do dry january :) I generally prefer to watch ftp channel content as i can relate to it
I feel like we are really not respected as customers. But what else can you expect from a casino company being the owners. I am hoping for change when the new ownership takes over. I also feel like many things are being rushed out before that happens.
You know I've heard that thenmother company made casino/slot machines. But when I think about Raid, the more I think about it, the worst it gets. Casinos are typically classy. Adults go there, spend money , buy drinks and have a good time. The raid experience is nothing like a casino. You pay for the chance to gamble. You buy RNG, it's actually more like a Chucky Cheese, you have to buy tokens, then play games for tickets and then trade those in for prizes. There is no cover fee for a casino. In casinos you truly gamble with your money with no up front costs
He atleast does something about it, there are multiple content creators that spend as much if not more then he is and they arent doing anything about it
King Arthur has worse prices on some of their products, they have less heroes and the weapons are treated like heroes but you have to have the character first. The story is outstanding however the gold becomes the real wall because it is used for everything. You’re always short. In my experience and opinion it’s more of a problem than anything else in RAID. People don’t realize how bad it is because they are so pissed with Plarium. Give it time and pay attention then understand that the problems are very similar they are just covered with a different skin. I would rather have chase a variety of different characters than to push for a few then have to chase their weapons. If you can get a hero’s weapon before you get the hero then I stand corrected but you can’t use it until you get the hero first for sure. Let’s hope GODFORGE will correct the problems that those games have. I don’t plan to keep spending in RAID the way I have in the past, I will honestly spend only when I feel like it will make a difference to my account in a way that I want it to make or I just won’t spend.
They are greedy they are trying to hard to sell us, I just had a pack pop up today 9.99 for a pack 5 fragments for Belz the Reckoner 😂, so now they selling you packs you don’t need because I already have 100 frags just haven’t pulled him until a fusion or cvc if I need it but really probably trade him for maud he didn’t seem that good 😂
@ they sure can that’s what casino gambling is all about. It’s addition. They want the champs no matter what cost. Yes they will complain but they can’t help continuing. Raid was originally bought buy a Casino company.
@@ArieusblackRSL I don’t spend on this game anymore and when I did it was very little. Some people have money to burn others it’s the dopamine hit I would assume. Addition is just that whatever it is they just can’t control themselves to not do it regardless of the outcome. I saw a comment awhile ago and someone said he spent so much on this game his life was ruined. Lost everything.
As a player playing for a year, love the game but I'm frustrated with the tag team arena.. don't see a way to progress to bronze iv for ramantu mission.. made it to 3 once and then dropped. Doesnt seem like there is a reason. And hydra is a total disappointment. And i don't buy shards way to much rng and pulling legendary and getting a worthless Champion is ridiculous. Can't imagine if it was a useless mythical.
It’s not that big of deal. These videos are a waste of time. BP is a CC/ whale with a $100k account. He will spend because he competes with a top clan. This is a waste of time. Even if he doesn’t spend in January, they will get his money in February or march.
He is NOT rallying the community. Just letting HIS viewers know what's going on with him and his complaints. He voices similar concerns on his live streams. If you don't agree/like his views dont watch. Very simple.
Yeah exactly, some of these guys are just not listening to what he is saying. HE is not spending money, he didnt call up people to stop spending at all
Every person who plays a game spends or doesn't spend money as they see fit. Every person who plays a game thinks they have all the answers to make the game "perfect". Almost no player who plays a game has any idea how the inner workings go in the business side or the coding side. Every player who plays a game wants new content and wants things fixed then also complain when things are released too soon and don't work right. Boycott all you want it makes you look dumb and accomplish nothing. I am pretty happy to see how the game has improved over the years. I'm spending more then ever.
I really hope after control go to this Swedish company will have better changes. Swedish are famous grinder gamers and definitely will not like state of the game as it is.
@@toddmiller2812 I have my own business. They still pay what the average person pays for resources in the game. It helps lower the person taxable income in the from of a deduction. It’s not free money. The shorten version of it.
@@toddmiller2812 yes he can file it as a business expense (as an operational cost) but he is not getting 100% refund for the spending. You're acting like it only costs him 10% what it costs you for the same resources and that's just categorically false. Tax write-offs do not mean free or heavily reduced cost. If that was the case every business would succeed in America.
5 month low spender. I’ve stopped all spending and if they don’t do massive changes I’m out. Game is trash now. Especially since other games are better out there. KA is showing us at least how raid should be. I mean the market not upgrading to your level is just ridiculous. All other games like this level up as you progress. But Raid nope, bunch of greedy ass F’s
Drock endorses the biggest problem in the game by constantly attacking polymorph - he wants toxicity in arena with this garbage crowd control meta to be unstoppable. CCs do better and address this - I'm sick of people pointing to CCs to tell me, a high end arena player, that I don't know what is going on because of a content creator
Lol "i am done spending for at least January!!! Man some of these guys are so desperate for attention. Drop goes on a rant about his addiction problems and his drug dealer not conceding to his demands. Sounds like a desperate cry for attention to justify how much you've spent droc...
No spenders = No free to play! No sending = no new content = the end of RAID. The developers will just switch to the next money making game and the everyone will be pissed because it wasn’t as good as RAID Shadow Legends. Then they will blame everyone else but themselves! I want a healthy RAID because it has helped me with my PTSD from the military. No game is going to be perfect so you have to pick one that best suits you!
Games that are as profitable as Raid will basically never just vanish suddenly. If everybody stopped spending, they would first try to get their playerbase spending again before giving up and leaving all the potential profits behind.

Yes and once Godforge comes out more people are going to be flocking.
@ competition is GOOD!
King arthur is pretty trash though.
Been playing it casual feels totally under cooked
@ a game that has plenty to do is trash.. Imagine that.. Crazy part is this is just the base game and it has more than a game that’s been out 5 years
Competition needs to last though.
For a game to last and be a proper game, needs income=spenders.
And the problem is that those who I've to a new game they don't go there to spend at all or enough! So...
Nothing will change, spenders will spend & gamblers will gamble. Good luck with the movement though.
Raidflation is a real thing
is the first time I agree with you in the entire time playing 100%
It's Drock, not D-Rock 😂
I'd be onboard if it actually reduces the cost of playing, the paywall is expensive as fk. And it costs so much to change and level gear. This is daunting as a new player. I've started looking at vids now after the mistakes I've made because it costs so much to fix it.
Drock just doesn’t like losing in arena. When he loses it’s a problem in the game. He has PDS. Polymorph derangement syndrome.
People like you shouldnt be allowed on the internet, he is making a positive impact & you type this out for what? 😂
I paid $40 for He-Man. I'm not spending that type of money again anytime soon.
