Why 1.8 is Bad :/

The change to the card Enhancement. Plain and simple. Cards are much much weaker when leveled up now...
I would really like to hear the reason behind this big change.
The only reason I can think of is to lessen the gap between new/non-paying players and high paying players. And if this is the reason, this is the wrong way about it. New players need a way to obtain cards and level them up easier. That is the answer. The answer is not making all upgraded cards weaker, you have screwed over your high paying customers. BIG TIME.
You have essentially made mine, and every other paying player's investment be worth HALF of what we initially bought in to. My $800+ is now worth less than $400 from these changes. I spent money because it was worth, to me, to get better cards and make them much stronger. Now the level 20, 30, 40 and 50 cards that I spent lots of money on are now almost not even worth leveling into!! The changes are too drastic. Level 50s are now weaker than level 25s in 1.6! HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO US? You guys have honestly pretty much scammed us. Here is essentially what has happened in the last few patches...
- Card max to level 40
- Card max to level 50
- Wait for Players to pay ALOT of money to get cards to level 30, 40, and 50
- Make these cards half as effective
This is pretty equivalent to a cable TV company charging $200 a month for their services then they say, "Sorry customer, you are now getting half the channels you payed for...and oh yea, new customers now pay $100 a month."
Do you realize what you have done?
I will say it again, new players need a way to obtain cards and get them leveled up easier. You cut Ruby prices down, great. STOP at that. There is NO NEED to make these Rubies half as effective now. None. All you have done is pissed off your high paying customers. And we are the ones financially supporting this game the most. Good job.
I am in the Chinese QQ chat for ECB. There are over 100 players in here. NOBODY is happy with the patch. NOBODY. Here are some direct quotes from high paying, long loyal players:
"it's time to quit this game"
"it's time to say goodbye"
"lvl 30 epic now too weak, have to change all my deck"
"This change strengthened the decision to abandon my ECB...I do not need to download new version."
"We should not pay anymore and watch this game disappear"
"Thirty and fifty no diffference...This broke the game"
"IF each update regard to knock down the old fun, then this game becomes not fun"
"Policymakers certainly do not play ECB"
"ECB should enlarge friends list if energy needed for coins bet"
"Strentheing efffect is so weak, so who would buy Redstone.."
These are word for word quotes from top players. Im not going to say who, but just look at tthe top of the Ladder and you can figure it out.
You guys have pulled the carpet from under our feet ECB!! You turn our invested money into crap. WE ARE NOT HAPPY.
You need to realize what you have done.
Good luck.
