Movement Speed Items Revamp - Feedback

[verbal cargo]

So true many people, no spots in clans, no bots enz enz, even started paying back then after playing my first year for free

[sick tangle]

Rockets would not even be that bad if they just reverted the Jungle Shoes nerf

[verbal cargo]

Told him that also, he dont seem to understand

[kindred lance]

Now I only play when I can snipe my friends. Otherwise, it's boring.

[whole kelp]

No, they do not want to understand. There's a difference.

[west orbit]

It's has always been shoes, dat item has always carried Zooba Characters/items, and the overall fun experience imo

[honest idol]

[tardy snow]

that item carried the entire game

[modern hornet]

Yep. Things need to change. New strategies need to be developed and implemented with a more long-term oriented view.

[arctic goblet]

Aint nobody like this change and they should’ve known no one would.

[tardy snow]

+1

[arctic goblet]

I don’t see where this game is going

[tall canyon]

Superrrr slowww. Let’s do the math: squads, average load time for me to actually spawn in a game= 1 min. Average length of the match= 5min. Then getting your teammates to rdy up=1 min. Thats 7 minutes right there trying to do 1 squad match to gain let’s say 9 trophies… 60 minutes divided by 7 minutes = about 8.5 matches per hour (lol) and gaining 9 trophy per match X 8.5 = about 77 trophies per hour……..this is why the only game mode to play right now is solo. And I liked playing with friends, but the progression is absolutely horrible. I don’t hav 3+ hours to play everyday. How am I going to progress?? And this is if you win every game in squads…

[sick tangle]

solo sometimes takes up to 2 minutes just to still completely be filled with bots

[naive plover]

matches do not finish in a minute

[uneven stream]

And solo matches also be taking up to 5-6mins because of how long it takes to load in , It takes a usual 1 min and 30 seconds - 2mins to load in for me

[woven scroll]

Zooba please do something. The game is declining and fast

[lost solstice]

It was 2 times speed use your brain pls

[modern hornet]

bring back jungle to its original state, and nerf rockets + coffee to compensate to still achieve your desired speed changes

[woven scroll]

I agree not coffee tho

[lost solstice]

Coffee is fine stop crying

[modern hornet]

Other things need to get nerfed if jungle shoes gets reverted

Holy sandals should not give a speed boost at all. Should be base speed or slightly slower

Nerf everything already nerfed further, but keep jungle shoes the same (back to its original state)

[arctic goblet]

No one uses sandals so why not buff it?

[sick tangle]

Holy Sandals was not good before already, there was no reason to nerf it here

[tardy snow]

there was no reason to nerf jungle shoes either or any other movement item for that matter except rockets

absolutely no reason to remove duos and trios either

[latent mica]

At the end... We can conclude there was no reason of this update fr

[torn wave]

I'm shocked as to why this seemed necessary to change.

I assume the devs might want to introduce new speed mechanics for the game. However, changing the jungle shoes truly renders it more difficult for newer players to engage in proper fights once they reach the 1000 trophy mark on their character, thus... repeating the cycle for them hoping to get a new character sooner or to try new methods to hide away.

Considering this increases your base speed better, this might as well become a silver item now and have a new version of shoes come out to replace this.

[sick tangle]

I quit the game because of this update. Dear Developers please completely revert this Change.

[azure hare]

🤣

💯

[modern hornet]

I love 3 min+ battles. Those have the most back-and-forth fighting, defibs, heals. That's complex gameplay and fighting dynamics.

Not just bulldozing the other team trying to complete the whole match in 1 minute

[honest idol]

u aint the only one playing it ? not everyone likes it

[modern hornet]

If anything, consider the option of making health packs be 3/3. And putting jungle shoes back to original speed

Nerf coffee, rockets, holy sandals to the ground if you have to, but bring back jungle shoes to original speed

[sick tangle]

what have holy sandals done to you

[modern hornet]

they want to nerf speed items, so there needs to be give and compromise

[arctic goblet]

He uses it clearly

[sick tangle]

sandals barely give any speed

[modern hornet]

no reason why walking on water should be faster than land, etc

[woven scroll]

I agree with that

[woven scroll]

I agree but coffee

[woven scroll]

Ya 💯

[tardy snow]

for once i agree with you

[woven scroll]

💯. Let's just discuss what this is meant for

[tribal prawn]

Bro stop giving ideas

[azure hare]

🤣

[tall canyon]

Bring back jungle boots, duos and trios… leave the other nerfs. Then start fixing the bugs in this game and the major lag since update 5.0+. Thank you 🙏

[sick tangle]

100% agree with this

[modern hornet]

Bring jungle shoes back. Nerf these other speed items further if you need to.

[tardy snow]

+1

[quasi bison]

Rockets is totally useless now, does they work at all? Maybe something went wrong in the update bcs they do no diffrence at all, not even on level 12.

And jungle shoes is so bad too and make strategy games useless.

The games are to slow and we can't put anything to speed it up. Buff jungle shoes and Rockets!

[woven scroll]

Just revert the change and nerf rockets by half. Games honestly not even interesting anymore gameplay is so slow and clunky like wtf please fix it as I do like this game but recently it's been horrible

[uneven stream]

Ikr, like they seriously don’t feel like they give a cooldown reduction or speed boost. Theres almost 0 strategy or skill to the game now.

[modern hornet]

Just nerf rockets down further by 3/4 and restore jungle shoes back to original

[uneven stream]

Rockets already give basically a 0% speed boost + cooldown reduction, nerfing it by 3/4 more will literally make the items useless lol

[modern hornet]

jungle shoes revert to previous, would boost it

[sick tangle]

rockets always relied on jungle shoes and because they are so bad now rockets are bad too

[keen sky]

Please bring back the old update for rockets please I hate this change for the rockets now

[tropic mountain]

Yes

And boots most importantly

[round elk]

Hilb thank you for opening the floor here!

Please consider the biggest issues being created lately as their risk for long term damage is increasingly clear…

• Reduced activity
• Losing more long time loyal players than ever
• Chaos in game with constant updates, changes, lag, etc
• Players don’t feel heard
• Inadequate communication from WL
• Too many changes at once
• Small teams removed again?Why? Temporary (I hope)?
• Trophy gains truly discourage team play, which hurts the clan & activity in a devastating way
• Rewards (therefore growth) are coming slower
• Please consider using a focus group of actual players before making changes
• It’s unethical to advertise & sell items under a certain guise, & then nerf them so significantly

I want nothing more than to see this game continue on & thrive. Please hear us and pass along our feedback so that can happen.

[last wren]

Agreed

[woven scroll]

100% I've not played as much as I used to as this new "balance patch" is terrible and the lack of communication from wildlife is annoying as we never know what's going on most of the time. For example duos and trios disappearing and due to this progression is even worse now. And same here I'd love for this game to thrive but zooba are making it increasingly difficult to help this game thrive!

[foggy saddle]

Mama bear said it! 💯

[wheat shale]

Agree

Look at the emojis, 83 thumbs down. Not a single thumbs up.

[azure hare]

💯

[uncut tusk]

💯

[keen dagger]

pls I am ruined without the buffs as soon as I get a good char it is nerfed to the ground

[keen sky]

One of worst update I would say I want the game to be fun and competitive tanks are very slow and not more powerful which makes the player hurt when it comes to their fav char so please bring back duos and trios and revamp the old rockets power and canister and pheromones in squad is needed please

[uneven stream]

Pheromone in squad is not needed unless you seriously can’t aim lol. They just need to revert the jungle shoes nerf and bring back duo trio

[modern hornet]

bring back jungle shoes and nerf rockets more to balance it

[sick tangle]

The Update made me quit the game honestly, if anything revert the jungle shoes change, I can settle with the rest

[uneven stream]

Same here

[tardy snow]

how do you suggest they should nerf rockets even further? i dont see any speed boost or cooldown reduction from rockets so other than the cool animation around the character, theyre basically useless now

[last wren]

Same

[winged lagoon]

Bro wants to kill rockets even more 💀,apart from that not evryone uses rockets is pratically useless and second if they nerf it further they schould remove it from unique tier

[tardy snow]

yeah and imagine rockets being an epic/gold item😭

[winged lagoon]

Ik😭

[modern hornet]

reduce rockets speed further down by 60%, and boost jungle shoes back up to original

[uneven stream]

If they nerfed rockets by 60% more, it would only give you a 0.000001% speed boost maxed out at lvl 12 😭

[quartz flume]

If they nerfed jungle shoes for the reason of: there should not be a scenario where you cant escape from someone. Then lets start with removing the pink consumable😂

[sick tangle]

isnt that like exactly the point of the pink consumable? Everyone uses it to run away lol

[sick tangle]

Rockets is only useless because jungle shoes are so bad, if they reverted the jungle shoes changes rockets would still be pretty strong

[quartz flume]

Yeah its really anyoing because no matter how much they mess up you can just escape

But no i meant that people who is chasing can use it

[winged lagoon]

Where did you keep your brain????

We better just put it in common class item at this point

Tho we need rockets and jungle speed back

[arctic goblet]

Now we’re talking but imo rockets not even an issue

[modern hornet]

If you guys want jungle shoes back to original, then the other speed items need to get nerfed further

[foggy saddle]

Then they shouldn’t even be a unique item if they gonna nerf them

[woven scroll]

Use this chat for it's intended Use instead of being off topic!

[winged lagoon]

Now that im thinking your so right... too right , i mean tight ,right? Its so bright that i might off the searchlight,surely ill keep it out of your sight. Tell me is it all right? Or today will be tommorrow good night?

[last wren]

U good?

[uncut tusk]

It’s much less pleasant to play the game with these changes. Bring it back to the way it was.

[uncut tusk]

A great point. They were so sneaky with that too. Just ended up leaving it in the game… Back then it used to be temporary. I mean, is it so hard to give a heads up or something?

[quartz flume]

💯

[uncut tusk]

It’s also pretty discouraging to spend money on items when they keep getting devalued over time. Even when the game tries to fix one thing, it often ends up breaking or nerfing something else. Pheromones can now only be used in solos, Muscles were changed so you lose stacks if you get knocked, Rockets don’t work the way they used to, and now this—it’s a pattern. It doesn’t make sense to keep pushing item sales in the shop if those same items are just going to be weakened later. It makes players hesitate to spend at all. Who’s gonna keep funding the game? lol

[foggy saddle]

I think Fr they want the game to die. Nothing else makes sense

[tardy snow]

they probably do, otherwise they would care about what their entire playerbase wants (except that one person who thinks these updates are good for the "long term life" of the game💀)

[foggy saddle]

Fr. I mean by this time the revert should have taken place, and new update has already been out.. the reverting should have been there.. oh well.

[foggy saddle]

That one person 💀

[tardy snow]

instead of reverting them they just made sht worse😭

[tardy snow]

im definitely not referring to anybody

[foggy saddle]

🤣 yh nevermind . I hope Zooba listens to the majority .. only hope is left. I miss the boots

[winged lagoon]

They nerfed so much about phero (radius ,stun time , charge ) it ain't worth to buy now ,rockets the only thing that make ppl fast with jungle got nerfed to the ground muscles ain't to noticeble tho

[uneven stream]

Muscles aren’t noticeable?? 💀 I have 1 shotted so many players with them , at lvl 5-6 not rlly but higher than that, they are amazing

[winged lagoon]

I mean the nerf

[uneven stream]

They weren’t nerfed

[winged lagoon]

Or bug fixed bcs when you got killed in team it dint reset before

[uneven stream]

Oh I get you know. I thought you meant that muscles weren’t good 👍 sorry for misunderstanding

[winged lagoon]

Np

[tropic mountain]

Are they actually interested in reversing the update or is this not going to be considered

[uneven stream]

Probably won’t be considered but maybe they can give us a good surprise for the first time

[uncut tusk]

I would truly hope they reverse it because I’ve seen quite a few people quit or stop playing over it 😭

[tropic mountain]

Yeah we can always hope

[stoic rune]

[modern hornet]

I have noticed that random squads are playing a lot more strategically now. Random teammates are not chasing all over the map anymore, and in general they are sticking together more.

Seems like they've learned that you can't venture away from the group and take on enemies and expect to get resurrected.

In addition, I have played in many squad games now, where teammates will work together and put up wooden walls around dead enemy bodies. Preventing enemy teammates from dashing in to defib. This is all smart play that should have been part of team play since the beginning

I am looking forward to the next generation, of smarter, more tactical players as they advance through the ranks

[modern hornet]

Random example (from the past) to illustrate what i mean. Walling up a dead body, and pushing back enemies (larries) from moving in to defib their teammate

[modern hornet]

Random teammates are now doing this type of play now, which is awesome. Lots more strategy and tactics in this new slower format, there are pros and cons

I am hoping that as this new generation of players upgrade, eventually there will be more skillfull high level matches. And not just "chase and bash scramble" slop .
