So, I realize that changes to flex point pricing is on the "never going to happen list" but I'm sure that zero support, zero updates and bare minimum admin presence was also likely on that list at one time. My point being, is if that the product is outdated and no longer supported, why is flex being sold at full price? And why is it so freaking expensive? The only reason I paid for this initially was that the game, back in season 17, was updated on a normal basis and I had friends playing. What incentive is there now to spend $10 on 1200 flex points? I realize you may have other projects, but damn, who doesn't like MORE MONEY?

I LOVE GLB1 AND SUPPORT IT. I DON'T LOVE MIGHTY BRAWLERS BUT PLAY IT AND HAVE DROPPED A LITTLE FLEX ON IT TO HELP SUPPORT WG.
WHY DON'T YOU LOVE GLB1?

I just feel that it's at a point where this is a legit question. The price of flex is steep, especially with a dwindling player base and no new people coming in. I mean, honestly, how many more people (other than me) would automatically buy more flex if they went to half of what they cost now? How many more players would you create?
I play some other games that are "free" with in game purchases, and very few require the money that it takes to field more than a few players here.

Be honest then. How long is this game staying for? I've seen this happen multiple times with many other games. What does WG have left in the tank? Is this just an accepted inevitable event, or is there some last ditch effort to be done? I just don't want to login one day and poof, there went everything.

all games get updated, the only time it stops is when they are pushing a newer product (GLB2)

They all want us to just play just GLB2, but they don't wanna drive anyone away by forcing you to do it, so they stop updating it

GLB is not a child. You have a great first one, then a disappointing second. In the digital world, post-birth abortion is still possible. Even the layout looks better on the first. Honestly, had GLB2 came before 1, I wouldn't have played at all.

Since you didn't accept I'm thinking you didn't see the GM invite I sent ya. Make sure to check your alerts.

When the tipping point is reached the end will come swift. Right now, WG makes enough money to pay for their operations and still show, at the very least, a small amount of profit. Once the cost of the business exceeds the income it makes, the show is over. While WG doesn't like to divulge it's customer numbers we can extrapolate some just from common knowledge. The number of new users in THIS GAME is not exceeding the number of users leaving. Plus, many are subsisting on massive flex purchases from some time back and not buying new flex now. What I don't know, and couldn't tell you, is if the number of new users in GLB2 and MB is growing significantly enough to offset the losses that I believe GLB1 to be causing at this time. I suspect it is but I also suspect it's not a significant growth... the eco system here is fragile IMO.

Half off flex, current players buy more. Put out some sort of android app to get it to that market, same for IOS. Stupid games make a fortune there. It's football. FOOTBALL. How much money is shelled out for fantasy football? Yeah, part of that market should be you.
