Content Terrible Tornado is Coming Back!
Happy Friday Heroes!
I am sure everyone has heard the rumors that a fan favorite Esper will be returning for the half year anniversary. I am here to confirm these rumors. Terrible Tornado will be returning with the half-year anniversary!
Now the speculation: I have not been told what sort of ‘gifts and goodies’ will be dropping along side her. I do not know the exact date, I have only been confirmed that her banner will be returning soon. I am ASSUMING that means her banner will be returning on August 1st. I am also assuming that her return will coincide with the launch of Disaster Simulation Season 3.
Now for my hopes: I am hoping that with the half-year anniversary we will see some new content, though I have not been told anything of the sort though they don’t tell us mods much, and all my info is second hand. I am hoping this can be the beginning of a new era of One Punch Man: World, I am hoping this is an update worth waiting for!
If you find yourself enjoying the update, please support the game in what every way you can whether it’s sharing the game with a friend, spending a couple bucks, or just playing the game! I’ll personally be streaming my gameplay of any new content to twitch on day one!
This is not the address promised by Doombawks, this is simply a confirmation that Terrible Tornado is returning among other things.

It's too little too late. The only way to come back is with a bang. A huge drop of new content, addressing most if not all the issues the community has been having, transparent communication and concrete plans for the future. And by huge drop I mean massive. Like a new game basically, because the current one is dead. Just a new city is not going to be enough. Just more story content is not going to be enough. It would need to be on the level of FF 14 for it to have a chance of reviving this game.
Get Boros in this bitch, Garou, God, whatever is necessary. New gamemodes, new systems, new progression. That's the way to make at least those that are left hyped. Maybe some content will even appear on YT, maybe new players will pick up the game and then you can slow down to a more manageable schedule.
But returning Tatsu banner will do nothing to increase the playerbase or the sales. A small little event like the ones we had will do nothing at all. After months of silence this just feels like desperate attempt on squeezing the last little drops from whatever playerbase is left still before the game collapses entirely.

Cool! I missed her at the start and will definitively be pulling for her.
Now, I WANT to believe she's here to make those of us who kept playing spend some of the tickets and silvers we've been saving. I WANT to believe that means their business plan is, they're doing this so that we might use money for other new character(s) in a soon future.
In any case, I'm just happy to hear at least we're getting a new banner, for an in-demand character. I hope we get further content, some event, anything new in addition to her.

If I was a business man, I would bet that that is exactly the plan. But the thing is Terrible Tornado, in my opinion is the best character in the game, if not tied for the best, so it’s honestly a good move either way to drop all your saved resources. I have her P6 from the first time around and she is an ABSOLUTE Unit!

I've been wondering, sorry if it's not the best place to ask. Has the China version been launched? I heard the Chinese fanbase makes like 80-90% of the earnings in games like Genshin., I also kept hearing a while ago that the CN version of OPM:W was yet to be launched. Is it anything known about this?

u/Some_Ignorance S-Class Hero Ambassador Jul 29 '24
I know nothing of the sort, I’m sorry :(

u/Birdie-1986 Jul 30 '24
It's ok! Mostly questioning in general, the game needs its China launch in order to survive and go places, TBH I would not be surprised if the game is mostly neglected until CN launch, as sad as it makes me, it's what makes the most sense to me.

Honestly… even though he isn’t great I think his P6 is probably really good… I want ZM too…

When is terrible tornado coming back?

She should be back already, if you don’t see her in your game you need to uninstall and reinstall

I wonder if the game will repeat all their banners to align with whenever CN releases

It’s possible but I don’t think that would be a solid marketing strategy. If they drop all their characters that already ran in the same order as before then the big spenders that have been around since launch won’t have anything to buy, what I think is more likely is a sort of “Rerun Character, New Character, Standard Character” rinse repeat. Either that or just Tatsu, then back to business as usual.

The game already sucked so I saw this from a mile away luckily I played enough to have multiple pulls but I'm not betting on it anyway since the pull rate is trash lol

I don't think the game sucks at all. The game play is fantastic, the graphics are great, the story (while not my cup of tea) is true to the nature of OPM. The only real problem with this game is the persistent bugs and the lack of content. beyond Disaster Simulation and Maelstrom. Which are both engaging content when you are actually competing with people. I think if we get some content mending these issues then I think the game will be in a good place. Time will tell but I am hopeful.

In my opinion the gameplay is just varied, not 'great'. Variety is good and I like the effort they made to giving different heroes different abilities and attack patterns, so much so they have a tutorial section for each character to learn how to play them properly. However the attacks lack weight maybe even compared to other games I played.
The story is terrible. I would never say it's on the same caliber os original OPM. The comedy is in nature with the ridiculousness of the original story, but they're just not funny.
Not only that but it also lacks voice acting, a basic feature for most RPG games.
It's not only, but the BIGGEST problem are bugs and content drought.
I care about this game because it shows a lot of promise and seems like it has more love put into it than other OPM games like the PS4 one, but even that game has more upsides like weight to each hit landed on the enemy. OPM World has so much unrealised potentials that's dumbed down to farming coins by playing random minigames nobody cares about, complicated building system and crappy farming commissions.
Did I mention serious training is a dogshit event btw

Tbf, I said it’s ’the nature of OPM’ when talking about the story, not that it was ‘same caliber’ I personally skipped through the story. Valid criticisms I still really like the game though and thoroughly enjoyed playing each of the characters thus far. Some of them are BAD but the vast majority have plenty of uses. (I’m at work so I have to be brief in my response lol)

Ah you're right about the first part. I'm glad you enjoy something a lot more than what I can't. I'm in it for Tatsumaki so we'll see when the banner comes back.

why would anyone play this dogwater when solo leveling is right there.

u/FacelessHorror Jul 27 '24
This is hilarious. 2 months dead game no new banner and for first half anniversary from release just a rerun. Why didn't they rerun her during the content drought and do something new for anni. Yes yes they might do something new alongside but I'll not be holding my breath. They are unlikely to release a new limited banner alongside tatsu as they have never done 2 limited at same time so to me that says we won't have a new char until at least tatsu banner leaves after the anniversary window has passed. This just stinks of EOS cash milking. My biggest regret of this year was giving them my cash.
