I know people say changes are coming in a few days, but I think it might be too little too late. I always end up fighting someone from the same 3-4 camps and I feel like the game is made up of maybe 10-15 different camps total with the rest just being the secondary camps of those same 10-15.

There isn't even half the amount of players that were here 2 months ago and I feel like there's less and less people playing everyday. Even the people from the main camps that used to never miss fights sometimes don't fight at all. There's also a big problem when it comes to getting fights regardless of the org. A lot of the time people won't accept 50 / 50 fights and the end result is that nobody ends up fighting at all.

I'm losing motivation to play. I get to the EFC, fight the same 3-4 camps ad nauseum and that's pretty much that. Rock scissors paper against the same guy you've fought 7 times already. Yawn.

Where have all the players went? Remember when shitloads of people used to always be on come 8pm to get there fights in? Now it's a barren wasteland. Maybe 3 people in the division at most. Seems like most people for some reason or another just don't care anymore.

I'm actually gulty of not fighting all of my fighters as much as I should have(30% sometimes every two months). If a good portion of the MMArmy veterans leave that just more power to the newer players/camps. I am not worried.

I think there are simply less feeder camps and more people downsizing. But people have been leaving as well. Part of it is that spring break had a bunch of people playing a lot.

At the same time, the forum community is growing because of the GPs and the upcoming upgrades so thats good.

Hopefully there'll be an upswing when the game is advertised again. I remember just logging in around an hour before the afternoon reset, playing the majority of guys for both my teams and then staying for a little after the reset and playing for the majority of my guys again. And that was without having to make a challenge.

But right now I'm having fun with Kumite.

Expect traffic to pick up over the course of the next month.

After the release of the upgrade we are going to be making an aggressive push to get new players.

The game mechanics, however, will stay pretty similar to the current set up (barring a fun addition... more on that later). It's important to remember that the game is still in its infancy as it has only been around for 3 months. It will constantly grow, and part of that will be the loss of most of the original players. That sucks, but it's the nature of online games.

Early on we pushed hard to get players. Lately, we backed off so that we could make adjustments to prepare for a larger group. Should be good times ahead.

Maybe if all your guys weren't such studs, they wouldn't be at the top, fighting the same guys all the time.

The noobs hang out in the small orgs. You're so good that you don't notice them. I blame you.
