Farlight84 was my favourite mobile game, that i played often and heavily.
I loved the game for its atmosphere, its uniqueness, its skill-requirement. I was among the best 10% of players, and gladly supported FL financially. Then, the devs decided to change the game drastically, but i kept my loyalty through the hard times, that the developement, that removed passive skills and Jetpacks from the game, meant:
Two changes that i hated from the bottom of my heart, and that led to slow, unspectacular and slightly repetitive matches, while retaining all the other negatives: unbalanced weapons, and awful matchups, where players of all ranks were thrown together at random.
But, the core feeling remained, and i enjoyed the control, that i had over my hero...

With the latest patch, the downgrade continues, and Farlight84 reached a point, where i dont feel any intention to continue anymore.
Now, reviving dead team members is a lot easier, faster, and almost without limits. Until the endgame, killing or dying doesnt really matter anymore.
Additionaly, the game is now lagging badly, with the same settings, so that i am forced to use blurry textures.
And, if that wasnt bad enough, VIP-members, that purchased both subscriptions, receive bonus ranking-points now.
I can hardly express how disappointed i am from the direction the game has taken, from a superb battle-royal for a hardcore-audience, to a casual mainstream product, that the mobile world neither needed, nor wanted, and where scores and rankings really dont matter much anymore.

R.I.P. Farlight84...

FOLLOW ME FOR MORE AWESOME ARTICLES!!! **Understanding Community Feedback** The initial step towards reconciliation is to genuinely understand the community's feedback. The removal of the jetpack has significantly impacted the gameplay dynamics, leaving players missing the high mobility that defined Farlight 84. Acknowledging the gap left by this feature and the introduction of JetSlide is crucial, yet it requires further refinement to fully meet player expectations and restore the game's distinct fast-paced appeal.

FarLight 84 is a banger!!
It's been a very long time since I felt this good playing a Battle royal game, the only good BR android I had was COD mobile but that game is just a disappointing mess nowadays, PuBG has always been an unoptimized laggy and unbalanced game with very old controls that felt like it's from ps2, then came Apex legends an excellent BR with very good control and overall amazing gameplay, but since I heard the news of Apex legends server will be down,

Apex Legends Mobile Closure (Sunsetting? Lmao)
Alright, alright, alright, we definitely did NOT see this coming lmao xd Jokes aside, We saw this miles away. The dwindling community and player count signifies a lot. How easy it is to climb up ranks because there is literally no other people besides bots on ranked, the predatorious nature of the monetization and how hard it is to get into for old devices kinda makes this game low on the player count. EA also said they are closing the game due to "quality, quantity and cadence concerns", but we all know that they don't get enough money out of it to profit.
