  • monetization96 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the prevalence of microtransactions and the perception of a "pay-to-win" model. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards without being forced to do so, others criticize the game for becoming increasingly reliant on in-app purchases and advertising, leading to a feeling of imbalance and dissatisfaction. Overall, players note that while the game can be enjoyable without spending money, significant advantages often require financial investment.

    • β€œThe game is still fun even with microtransactions.”
    • β€œPersonally, I like the game; it's addicting, fun to play with friends, and it doesn't shove in-game purchases at you. It's really easy to build up weapon levels and money without buying them. I recommend this to anybody who wants a long-term game. 5 out of 5.”
    • β€œNo ads that you are forced to watch, and it's super fun!”
    • β€œOh, and the monetization is horrendous, but that's also classic mobile game...”

  • stability73 mentions

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of glitches, freezes, and matchmaking issues that disrupt gameplay.

    • β€œUpdate after update introducing new features and game modes that don’t work properly, while major glitches go unresolved.”
    • β€œI spend money on pearls but it freezes after purchase, takes my payment, then gives me nothing.”
  • story52 mentions

    The game's story aspect is criticized for lacking depth and structure, with many players expressing a desire for a more engaging campaign or story mode featuring missions and character development. While the multiplayer and guild quests are appreciated, the overwhelming focus on casual quests and the lengthy matchmaking process detracts from the overall experience, leaving players frustrated with the current quest system and its impact on gameplay. Overall, there is a strong call for improvements to the narrative elements and quest mechanics to enhance player engagement.

    • β€œAn enjoyable game for both the free player and the spender, nice graphics, good storyline.”
    • β€œJust one suggestion, try to add more weapons and it would have been great if the game had a short campaign missions; more precisely a story type missions with chapters.”
    • β€œMaybe a campaign with quests and more ships and abilities.”
    • β€œThe latest version of the game doesn't allow you to play regular missions at all... instead, it forces you to play casual ones... it takes ages to get into a match... very boring to keep waiting for such a long time for the matches.”
    • β€œIt is awesome but there is no story mode.”
    • β€œAfter the update, quests became obnoxious: 'your favorite weapon'?!?”
  • optimization46 mentions

    The game's optimization has received mixed feedback, with some players experiencing smooth performance on newer devices like the iPhone X, while others report significant lag and display issues on devices such as the Galaxy S10+ and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max. Many users are calling for improvements to better support older devices and enhance overall performance, particularly in terms of graphics and network connectivity. Despite these concerns, some players still find the game enjoyable and well-optimized for their devices.

    • β€œIt's optimized, rich with content, it's not linear in terms of building your ship the way you want.”
    • β€œFor its size, it runs smoothly, and is overall one of the most fun mobile games I've ever played. 10/10 would recommend.”
    • β€œA little optimization will make this a lot better!”
    • β€œEverything about this game is well made, but the only problem is that please make the game more optimized for older devices.”
    • β€œLeft side of the screen is just black, 3% of the screen is missing... average performance on a new Galaxy S10+ Android phone, lagging a lot when playing... on iPhone X, it runs nice and smooth, no problem at all... I do not believe this is a processor issue as the S10+ has a better benchmark than the iPhone X. Come on, please do something... thanks.”
    • β€œWhen I try to play with mobile network data, the game is not loading. I am using a Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, and it's frustrating that the game does not work on mobile data and only works on Wi-Fi. All other apps are working smoothly like YouTube and Instagram. Fix this; I am not able to play because of this, and it's affecting my guild performance.”

    • β€œThis game and music is mind blowing.”
    • β€œWhen I was young, the game was perfect, but now I don't know what's wrong with the sound. It seems as if it's repeating the same 0.1 part of the music theme about three times, and both at the same time. Fix that, please.”
    • β€œIf you are reading this, then there is a problem at the start of the game. The music plays, but after some time, it stops, and when the loading is done, it exits on its own. I keep entering, and the same happens. Please, if you can fix this, then I will give a 5-star rating.”
    • β€œThe sound is distorted. I have to play it while turning off music and sound in the settings.”
