awesome cant wait to see these new changes for 2018

[andrewsmg99]

The 2018 Roadmap looks interesting and i have a few question for Con,

 

1.Will the horizon expand in this year?

2.Will some new weapons come out this year?

[Lana Woo]

I don't know about the Horizon, but we will surely have new weapons (they were mentioned in the "Convicts & Criminals" and "HERC bunkers" sections, plus the traditional event weapons).

[Maruse]

I actually really like the idea of boosters as active gear. I don't play much anymore but I will enjoy testing it out.

[Peter_Man_CFD]

Looks promising. New HERC BodyArmors to be permanent? Or Event only?

[My Chemical Zord]

The booster active gear sounds like it would give attackers an insane advantage. After the first smoke activates, one could have 3 or 4 of their survivors take one safely, and then rek the defenders when the smoke clears. 

 

What kind of raiding weapons will come from bunkers and the criminal set?

[tingadabopper]

Will Kong get the 6 year anniversary stuff or will it just be AG like the winter event free package? apparently they got 100 fuel for valentines day too lol.

 

For fuel trading why not just make the mk1,2,3,4 boxes permanent? but less common as they dropped very often during the christmas event, was crazy lol

Rather than adding another currency in terms of tradeable fuel, why not just drop premium boxes that give only fuel in a fixed amount? That would allow you to sell the same premium cards as before and also control how much fixed tradeable fuel there was using the boxes. If you wanted, you could also sell more boxes seperately.

 

If you allow people to buy trade - fuel directly you create an alternate currency system competing with the premium and L3 keys people have been using since the game started. It's going to end up devaluing the keys people have already accumulated. Prems and Keys give highly variable rewards. If you compare that to a fixed value currency, the interest in prem cards is going to crash. I know, for example, if I had a choice of buying prem cards or fuel as a trade currency, I'd never buy another prem card and likely would never accept one in trade or use them ever again.

 

It seems like a great way to anger anyone that has been spending money in prems or trading in them.

 

It's not like the Christmas box drops. I farmed those hard and there was still a reasonably low absolute limit to the number you could find in a month. Plus the amount of fuel in them was pretty small and trading them in groups cost a significant amount both ways. As a result, I bought some fuel but not a lot. Even then, it was pretty clear that a handful of boxes with a fixed amount of fuel were far more valuable to people than a key.

You're completely right. Unless the rewards that back keys are improved, it would be far more rewarding to buy fuel than to buy a premium key and open a premium box. Either CAG should back premium keys more strongly or make these fuel packs very expensive relative to non-tradable fuel prices. While I do support the idea of buying tradable fuel packs from the store, it could easily throw the economy of balance if it's implemented without care. 
 

Now, a question for CAG, how do you plan on introducing a new currency without rendering the current currency of keys obsolete?
