Sorry for my poor English, hope some one can help correct my grammar mistake.
We made a very big change on THBBB store system, now we will able to make more characters and more skins easily without add too many DLCs.
We have asked and listened to players from many communities about this update, most players are happy and support our change. Thanks for your support.
But some players, especially those not in Chinese community, or those haven't play THBBB for a long time, may feel not comfortable with this change. Some are because they don't fully understand what we will do, so we would like to explain about it here again.
Step1: in the previous updates
-Player's minions and minions' level has been return to equivalent coins.
-Old coins has been change to new coins, with some extra reward.
3 old coin equals 1 new coin.
-Minions' level was deleted.
Step2: will happen in 2 weeks
-DLC character pack will be removed from Steam store.
-Players bought DLCs will get all DLC characters directly in the new Store.
-Players bought DLCs will get 360 stars, equals 150% of DLC price.
Step3：will happen on late December or early January
-THBBB will become free! hope this will get more new players.
--Players already bought THBBB will get 900 stars, equals 250% of game price
About skin DLCs
-DLC skin pack will be removed from steam store.
-People with DLC Skins will get all DLC Skins directly in the new Store.
-DLC skin can be bought in new store with same price.
================================================
We are very sorry about the bad experience. We didn't explained every thing very well, it finally leads to a lot of bad review on Steam. We hope people understand that this game is still in EarlyAccess, we will change the game a lot. There are also a lot of historical problem. Bug and Economy system problem seems inevitable. We have to make every thing correct.
In the previous version, we didn't make that “Draw Character” system very seriously because of Early Access. All characters were almost free to obtain. After recent update, some player now feel that they no longer have all characters, so they feel very sad. But actually in LOL, Heroes of the Storm or many other famous MOBA game, most players with 500 hours will not able to have all characters. It's very hard for the developer of a MOBA game to survive without doing this change in current situation. We hope people can understand.
We really want make THBBB a good game, we fully understand some Steam Player don't like In-Game-Store, but this is our best choice for this kind of game now. Even many huge company have to do this to survive. We are only a small team, we spent more on THBBB than we earned yet, we are under pressure from many aspect. We will not abandon THBBB, we want continue making it better. We hope people can support us.
As a small team, we can't do perfect on every aspect like other big experienced company does, we don't even have a good translator for this article. We hope some angry players can be more patient, and accept our new Store, it's not that bad right?
We feel really thankful for all your support!
Now, we are working on
-Shanghai WePlay Game Show, THBBB game contest. (12.7-12.8)
-Adventure mode will be online after WePlay.
-More graphics, effects rework.
-Experimental Secret Big Big Update in the future.
Have a nice game!
