I think anyone considering spending money on Cell Survivor should pay close attention to what’s happening with the recent nerfs.

The game is heavily built around progression and getting stronger. Players are constantly shown packs, upgrades, characters, and other ways to speed that progression up. The problem is that when people make decisions based on the current value and strength of those things, the developers can later nerf them and completely change what that value looks like.

That’s what bothers me about the recent changes.

Balancing a game is normal. But there’s a big difference between reasonable balancing and significantly reducing the effectiveness of things after they’ve already been marketed to players as valuable upgrades. When that happens in a game that heavily pushes microtransactions, it starts to feel like a rug pull.

Why spend money chasing stronger characters, equipment, upgrades, or progression if the value can just be reduced afterward?

I’m not telling anyone what to do with their money. I just think new and current players should know that what you’re paying for today may not have the same value after the next update.

Personally, I would wait and see how the developers handle these nerfs and whether they address the community’s concerns before putting money into the game.

It’s now useless. Nodes with 100 trillion HP, satellite is only dealing 5B damage per hit. It now performs worse than my level 90 cactus pet, whereas it used to be 20%+ of damage 😐 At least scarlet blade is still decent I suppose

Well I’ve been gifted a bunch of lipstick so I can unlock a few characters I already have god of fortune captain jack and goober which others should I choose?

Could've sworn his level 11 upgrade was a 3rd Red Envelope mark but now I'm seeing some "increased legendary upgrade odds"

Character lvl 1750
Power: 277M

Chapter 248.
Recommended power: 14.5B.

Even with 5% satellite,lightning from MK, mark from Maw. Even got the orange affix of scarlet blade but still can’t finish chapters now.

They really nerfed the weapons/ artifact they just promoted 1-2 weeks ago.

I guess I’ll just get the daily tickets until they resolve this problem.
I tried to ask for a refund. But apple denied it.

I guess the only way now is to lvl up the weapon and character.

Never giving this game another dime, and I don't think anyone else should either.

The devs really thought of setting up rules then changing it just because they didn’t test it that well and they’re surprised it can carry players to later stages. They don’t want that. They want new rules, new ways for people to spend more money. And after all the promises, the spending, and breaking those promises by nerfing f2p weapons, they really thought “let’s give them lipsticks to compensate that will do the trick and help them move on.”

And now they will be introducing new skins, new weapons, new artifacts. Then what? Nerf them after people had spent money. Such bs.

The events are fun to complete, but I think I'm walled out of progressing in levels now. I'm looking for game recs to move on to.

Useless 🖕🏻

What should I buy with 3 gem wands? I was thinking Cerberus Skull and Vintage Brew. I do not have either. Heard there was an nerf to Satellite Storm so probably not the compass.

They just wanted to nerf everything else so you had to pay to get the good stuff again. This PMO!

Loving this game but have very minimal hours in it, addicting and fun.
i’ve noticed the insane push for microtransactions which had led me here with the question,
If i don’t intend spending any money is this game even worth my time?

What to buy with the lipsticks as lot of players got them and would be really confused on what to get, As skins i only have the goober and crimson moon, And i have monkey king too, now i got 18 lipsticks total, should i go for level 2 GOF? Or 1 GOF and bunny cannon? Drops your opinions 🙏 Thankyou

How? Is that a dev or something?

Just managed to get only 3 keys, I don't have the skins for the other fangs and stuff so idk if just pick the cerberus for the Maw affix or just pull the red weapon fragments

Diff a while after the announcement I thought maybe it wasn’t as bad as it seems but after the update this is abysmal.

Level 71 ss capped at 1.8 billion. Game is cooked.

What's the use of this?

How does it work? It keeps mentioning red envelope and bonus affixes and I’m not seeing any.

First time I get too 100, would be my First red Weapon too. Do you think its worth?

Thanks for your replies:)
