Farlight84 was my favourite mobile game, that i played often and heavily.
I loved the game for its atmosphere, its uniqueness, its skill-requirement. I was among the best 10% of players, and gladly supported FL financially. Then, the devs decided to change the game drastically, but i kept my loyalty through the hard times, that the developement, that removed passive skills and Jetpacks from the game, meant:
Two changes that i hated from the bottom of my heart, and that led to slow, unspectacular and slightly repetitive matches, while retaining all the other negatives: unbalanced weapons, and awful matchups, where players of all ranks were thrown together at random.
But, the core feeling remained, and i enjoyed the control, that i had over my hero...
With the latest patch, the downgrade continues, and Farlight84 reached a point, where i dont feel any intention to continue anymore.
Now, reviving dead team members is a lot easier, faster, and almost without limits. Until the endgame, killing or dying doesnt really matter anymore.
Additionaly, the game is now lagging badly, with the same settings, so that i am forced to use blurry textures.
And, if that wasnt bad enough, VIP-members, that purchased both subscriptions, receive bonus ranking-points now.
I can hardly express how disappointed i am from the direction the game has taken, from a superb battle-royal for a hardcore-audience, to a casual mainstream product, that the mobile world neither needed, nor wanted, and where scores and rankings really dont matter much anymore.
R.I.P. Farlight84...
