can we get our credits back tho /u/F8RGE

It's not something we're currently planning, we did give everyone 60k free credits last month.

We've been thinking about this for a while but were always reluctant to pull the trigger as we knew there was never going to be a good time. It wasn't until very close to the deployment of this update that we decided to go ahead, we're talking hours before.

At the start heroes for in-game credits made sense, but as the game has evolved we have had to take another look at things. We can see through our telemetry data how many people have unlocked heroes, and we can also see the average credit amounts of players.

While our veteran players have more than enough credits to get everything they want, we are seeing that it's very difficult for new players to pick up a hero. If you are new, by the time you grind to get a hero, you then have a secondary grind if you want an appearance for them. That's not a great experience.

It's our belief that this is in the best interest of the game, especially for the future.
