I don't know why is everybody saying the game is dying and no one playing. I just logged in and 600+players online and 300+ in the chat. A month ago the numbers were the same. Maybe the older players stop playing( like me, I stopped because i lost motivation and not because of the new update, I stopped before.) but there is a lot of new players. And yes, this is not the best update the best version was the old old system with 150 levels. But the game is changing and I rememer after the big updates lot of the players are complaining about the changes. But the devs never turned back to the older version. So maybe it would be better if you just say your ideas, like the max weight should be 1200 and not just 1000, or different level boxes, lower weight lower matchmaking or other great ideas, I read some of Andy's ideas and they are great ideas. And about the cheating stuff.... its pathetic and ruining the game. One player is able to destroy a whole community. Congrat to that player, you mad a very good job. The game atmosphere was so great without you, but I think its already too late to repair.

pure, simple and sad truth

I am glad many people like the new update but to me it feels like a new game altogether i feel like it`s time for me to move on to another game because I have already squeezed all the goodness out of this one and the update didm`t improve the game at all.

Personally I like weight updates because it is need more strategical item settings.
I restarted this game few days ago.
