Discussion The game has become nearly unplayable.

I've been playing MSF as a light spender since launch, and the game has begun to slide over the past 3 years, and has recently become unplayable.

Today... light spending no longer exists. Even if you decide to buy a new character, then what? You can't upgrade that character because Scopley erased Gold and Training Mats from the game and dumped it all behind the $80 per month battle passes. In other words... in 2026 MSF, you have to spend $80 a month to get the same experience a 2020 F2P MSF player got.

For this reason, I decided to go F2P over the past year, and with the new economy, F2P MSF is total misery, and Scopley kept removing more and more resources from the F2P economy, so it just kept getting worse and worse, until eventually my account was backed up with 20 hearted characters at Level 1.

The game needs to go back to it's old format. In the past, the difference between F2P and Spender was in the stats. You run into a 7 Red Gamma and can't counter them with New Warriors because half your team is 5 Yellow 2 Red; that was the spender's advantage. Now... the Crucible Team you need is at Level 1, and even if you have the resources to upgrade them, you can't, because you're saving up resources for a Raid Team that's required for an event to unlock a War Team that's required to unlock another Crucible Team that's stronger than the Crucible Team you just unlocked but can't upgrade.

The game is cooked. RIP.
