This game is so awesome. There is no other games
out there that can top this! Wait what's this, another
new update from State of Survival! I got to participate in this event,
I gotta grab this HQ skin so I'm boosting my collection level,
I gotta grab this exclusive statue so I'm superior with my damage output,
I gotta upgrade my heroes so I can be stronger than everyone else.
I've got so much to do but so little time! Huh! I wish they don't update the game so much!
Everytime I max out on this new feature they release, they just add more and more!
I hate it when I can't max everything out! I got to focus on ranking in this event,
I guess . . . . Alright, I'm super sleepy right now
I just need to stay up until reset, to make sure no one overtakes me on the ranking!
Are you serious, I cannot go to sleep now!
I forgot I needed to complete this event for my migo ranking!
Alright let me buy some packs real quick, I have to upgrade my heroes.
(insert meme 2 hours later)
I've had enough of this, I've had it with this game throwing out new features to make me spend.
I'm tired of only playing this game and not doing anything else with my life.
I'm tired, I want my life back!
I'm sure many of you are familiar with what you've just heard.
I'm sure many of you feel the same way!
Funplus titles include King of Avalon - Frost & Flame, Guns of Glory - Lost Island,
State of Survival - Zombie War, Stormshot - Isle of Adventure, Sea of Conquest - Pirate War,
Misty Continent and many more In 2023, Funplus made about half
a billion dollars! Funplus has earned
over $2 billion in revenue with their first 2 games, King of Avalon's and Guns of Glory's
Meanwhile, State of Survival is ranked 1, generating more
than $1.5billion dollars in revenue to date! Basically FunPlus business model is to make
mobile games as addictive as possible and disguising them as free to play
Then adding in-app purchases so they make money by forcing you to actually pay to win!
"As it's an online game, it's kinda endless, so for me that really meant getting all the heroes,
maxing them all up, and getting as many skins as I could with all of them.
Well I did get all the heroes, the skins, the wings, and I even managed to max them all out,
but new features were constantly added to the game that needed to be maxed out
as well which made this "goal of completing the game" short lived."
For the game developers, once they get you to spend
a little bit of money in exchange for some heroes Which you would now need to equip with hero gear,
hero badges, tempest and others which you need to upgrade to compete and win.
All of these makes you more addicted to the game and spending more money.
This is a predatory game design mechanic, which is commonly known as pay to win.
Simply you can buy upgrades to get ahead of other players, and if you don't pay, you are
punished by the game and you will struggle to win. It get's worst though, buying upgrade get's pretty
much useless because whenever a new feature is released, they usually are insanely unbalanced.
Especially in comparison to the previous generation of features, making the game
unfair and frustrating, especially for those people that don't want to spend money to upgrade.
When a big spenders, gets demolished by another really big spender who is spec'd out,
it then creates the urge to go and spend even more money, and the cycle repeats itself.
That's where recently, more and more mega spenders have quit State of Survival.
We all know the famous YouTuber, Mishari left the game about a year ago.
He has played some cameo roles in State 333 with VAL, but not coming back.
Then Lightbringer in State 42 with UNO left the
game about 7 months ago after spending nearly quarter of a million dollars!
Cardin is the most recent YouTuber that has decided to retire her video editing
software following the end of Doomsday Open 2. Another legend has retired from State of Survival.
The top 100 All States Leaderboard are littered with players that have quit
State of Survival after spending in total more than $10million dollars!
At Rank 10, CouldBeYours from State 629, with 13.4billion BP and Collection Level 74,
has spent probably spent around quarter a million dollars.
At Rank 9, we have the infamous Queen Ella (also known as Queen Slayer) from
State 338 with 14.8billion BP and Collection Level 55,
after spending around $300,000 dollars. She was probably made to quit after her
scam was exposed, and only was able to stay strong by the funny business that she was upto.
I made a video on this topic, if you haven't watched it you can check it out
with the link above, or alternatively I've added the link in the description below.
Following onto Rank 8, we have Freedom 28 from State 199,
with 16.6billion BP and collection level 77. He has spent around $400,000 dollars in the
game and moved to State 307. He wasn't happy there so
moved to State 338 with Cardin. He wasn't happy there either and
moved to another state before joining State 199 where his account is sailing the clouds.
At Rank 7 we have Dubbaya from State 314, Alliance TUF at 16.7billion BP with collection level 84.
He quit before Doomsday Open 2, and Salem has been playing his account since.
He's probably also spent around $400,000 dollars,
My good friend Dave from State 307, well I knew how much he spent as he told me.
At 21.5billion BP and Collection Level 67,
he quit State of Survival nearly a year ago after spending a cool half a million dollars.
If you think of it that's 4B BP for every $100,000 dollars.
At Rank 5, we have the former leader of FBI from State 487, 13cats.
Following the end of Doomsday Open 2,
he changed his name to Game Over and has relinquished the R5 for FBI to The Joker.
I forecast that he's spent circa $0.7million dollars to date in this game.
Next, Rank 4 we have Khalid Q from State 167.
Remember State 167? It was a very strong state prior to state transfer coming online.
I suspect Khalid Q probably spent about $0.7million dollars in his account and
it was a very very maxed account at 26.3billion BP and collection Level 76!
Today this account is in DYZ State 697 being played by someone else.
Our top 3, begins with Chuck Norris, who transferred from State 291,
VVV to State 697 with DYZ. He was one of the strongest
players in State of Survival with Colonel Qatar in VVV alliance about 1 year ago.
VVV is no longer what it used to be, and State 291, is dead
At 30.9billion BP and collection level 73, I forecast he must
have spent circa $0.8million dollars. However, the original Chuck Norris subsequently
also quit State of Survival and the legendary account now is in the hands of another joiner.
At Rank 2, we have Prof Sheikh at 39.2billion BP and Collection Level 71!
The Rank 1 player by BP in State of Survival over the last 4 years from 2019 to 2023!
Originally from state 367 with SmD, Sexy Mad Devils, he threatened to quit several times!
He moved to State 251 in the first state transfer event and joined alliance HoW
but quit within 6 months, this time for good. He's spent more nearly $1million dollars on this
account and now his account is floating somewhere in the pixels of State 251!
Now, for Rank 1. This player recently dethroned Prof Sheikh to
be the Rank 1 player by BP in State of Survival. At 47.3billion BP and collection
level 89 moved to DYZ State 697. I don't know for real but Prof Sheikh mentioned
he spent $1million dollars in State of Survival. Therefore I probably suspect Lucifer must
have spent upwards of around $1.2million dollars to date.
There were rumours circulating recently that he has quit the game?
Is it for real? What is he planning to do? Well, I can tell you for real after speaking
to Lucifer, that he hasn't quit but is taking a long needed vacation.
The future of his account today is uncertain! He may return, he may be not, we don't know.
Yet we know that the cycle of spending and quitting will not end.
Most of the top ranked mobile games are free to play yet contain in-app purchases!
All these game types are designed not for you to have fun and spend your free
time but designed to keep you getting hooked and keep coming back for more.
Often these games require you to be checking in daily or multiple
times throughout the day as well! Many of these mobile games are
exploitative and they are not fun distractions. It is important to see them for what they are!
Am I addicted to State of Survival? For sure I am especially after all these years playing this game
Self awareness is important in order to gain back some control!
