Once a fan, now I’m disillusioned. Absolute nonsense. I bought this game in 2017 and now it’s a subscription to play? Absolute nonsense.

Ridiculous Why do I have to pay a subscription for a game I used to enjoy playing. Thanks for putting my nostalgia behind a paywall
Great game but pay wall sucks Used to be cool game to play but now has a paywall to not allow game play after 30mins.
Paywall I don’t think I need to explain further
Do batter and stop being those companies that ignore Seriously, halfbrick. I know you guys are a multi million dollar company or even billion dollar company either way my point is you guys have a lot of money And I know you have alternative ways you can make money. Tell me if this sounds right to you. You want people to pay a subscription to play a game that’s free to play that makes no sense The only thing the this subscription has done for you is caused backlash and criticism don’t you think it’ll be a smarter idea if you guys made the game FULLY free to play which would encourage users to buy in game items BECAUSE THEY’RE NOT HAVING TO PAY THAT EXTRA FROM THE SUBSCRIPTION when you companies begin to beg that’s when people start hating you and you start losing followers and I know you can see this happening in statistics please I really just want to enjoy the game and I want you guys to make a change and apply this to Jetpack joyride.
Why It was a great game whenever I used to play it but then they added a paywall with the subscription… like why
Unfortunate Money Grab This was a great game I played as a kid. Wanted to come back and was met with a subscription paywall. Do better, Halfbrick.
Greedy devs Paywall
A spit in the face of long time fans I have owned this game for over 10 years now and I’ve come back to it multiple times because I genuinely love playing it. Between how much of an arcade style game it feels, but at the same time it’s reliance on the player having to act quickly and strategically something that made me love this game. The fact that half break now says that I have to pay them a subscription every month feels like a spit in the face for someone who has played many of their games over the last 10 to 15 years. I get small time developers have had a rough go at it for quite a bit of time, but so have the rest of us. This subscription, whatever it is, feels like straight up greed. DO NOT BUY OR PLAY THIS GAME UNTIL THEY STOP IT
Waste of money Needs a subscription to play. Simply not fun enough to warrant paying per month. This subscription based model for gaming is ridiculous and if we all collectively don’t pay, then the company gets to die like it should.

“It's very simple, has customizable weapons which are amazing, great graphics for the kind of game, and I love the "world threat, bad guy" aspect.”
“But questions arise This game is addicting, quite challenging, and overall fun!”
“It was a great time killer on long overnight shifts and very replay-able.”
A drop after an update usually means the update broke something.
