@Banir (Not all of this is aimed at you :D): Of course the 'excuse' has been used multiple times, because people don't think about it, and keep on asking anyway. It isn't the Titan and NW who suddenly decide to hire people and get to hire people, it has to go through AE, and right now, HeroSmash has got many artists, many coders, where as ED has 2 artists and 1 coder - That is it.
It isn't anywhere near as simple as it sounds, you can't just hire new staff, the process is quite a long one that requires plenty of time. Sadly the fact is that ED has the smallest team out of them all, yet still manages to get releases out every week. That is an achievement and a half, looking at the small team, and the amount they get done. If you have any experience working on a game like that, you would see how hard it is.
The whole HeroSmash has more staff thing is not an excuse, it's a fact. Sadly the Devs can't just click their fingers and get more staff, no matter how easy it may seem for a player to say that. So at the moment, just accept you have a team of three people who work as much as possible for the players. I have seen with my own eyes how hard they work, some nights until the early hours of the morning, all for you. Would it really hurt people just to say 'Thanks ever so much for working very very hard this week', because at the moment all I can see is a load of selfish players, though not all of you are of course :) but a lot of selfish players who just think for themselves.
Non-Varium gear released - Loads of Varium players through a mardy, for goodness sake, be happy for them! Your releases will come, and Varium players do have an advantage, so no need to moan.
Varium gear released - Same the other way around.
I mean come on guys, you moan about everything - people say that they will stop moaning when good releases start coming - to me that is a bit pathetic and slightly immature. Every week something is released for players: Juggernaut battles - Stop moaning, no one said 'YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS MODE', don't like it, don't buy it, simple. Already bought it, then tough, you could have waited to see the comments on the forum, or asked someone else about it. Stun guns - You're not paying $50 for the guns, you're paying for the Varium, the guns are an added free bonus! Don't want them, don't get them, again, simple.
Each release will either be your cup of tea, or it won't - let's be honest, it's impossible to please all of you (Don't care what you say, it is liturally impossible). When a release is something you don't want, just stick to what you have, be happy for those who do want it! Don't moan and tell the Devs the release is rubbish, when really a lot of players are happy with it, and you're just being selfish, wanting every release to be good for you. What you want isn't always going to be what happens, what you want could be what others would hate to happen. You have to accept that the game is so big, with such a small team, they have to focus on one group of players at each time, they can't please you all. Just accept that, please, thanks.
