1. Bots..
These by far are extremely notorious and there hasn't been much stop to them. You can see them in most areas that are below lvl 40 and they've been plaguing fiesta for months. Outspark has not done very much at all to stop them but for the benefit of the doubt, they recently they installed Xtrap. Why am I still attacking outspark? because the bots are still there and Xtrap compromises other players who do NOT BOT OR HACK by not allowing them to play.
2. Gold Selling
Inflation has taken a steep hit on the economy of fiesta because of this. Most higher leveled players barely have more then a few gold (1 million copper) pieces which can now be bought quite cheaply. (5-10 dollars a gold piece) The economy thank god is Still stable but its still suffering over time because of this.
3. Lack of influx of new players
Its very sad to say this but it could be said the higher end towns (Uruga to be precise) if not more populated are equal to the starter town population. If you look around the newbie areas (or KQS) for the most part THIER VERY EMPTY. And really with the gold spammers in the starter town and few other people to play with people are only left with solo or small group grinding, who can blame them for quitting?.... Once the older players get bored and leave who will replace them so the community stays alive?
4. Outspark's focus on monetary gain
With all do respect any business has the right to make a profit, but the cash shop has dramatically affected gameplay to the point that if you want to become competitive in this game you HAVE to cash shop. Some of the cash shop items give tremendous boosts advantages over no cash shoppers. (7% crit rate increase for example) Cash shop items are untradeable unfortunately so players who cannot pay are pretty much screwed.
1. In the Chinese version of fiesta you can change ur hairstyle anyway you want for free. In fiesta, your stuck with 3 base hairstyles 3 colors and 1 face style and if you to acess others, you have to pay.
2. In their last christmas event the Gms promised people prizes for random people who came in costume. The only way you can get a costume was through cash shop. While its debatable....i find it unfair.
In all honestly i hope that 11 million dollars Outspark got would be focused on fixing both Fiesta and Sos. I don't want to see this game break down into another Knight online/E-games

Alright numero uno, bots are in every game out there, you just have to move on and play around them, theres plenty of people to play with.
Number two, gold sellers, once again, are everywhere in every game, of course they inflate the price of items, but hey jsut means u have t play that much more to get what you want.
Number three, number of players going down?? L-O-L. I can always find a group to party w/ and kingdom quests fill up very fast no matte the time of day. I play at diffrent hours since i started (yesterday) and the quantity of players is very satisfying.
Number Four, hmmm heres a no brainer, but aren't video games made to lets, see whats the word?
Make Money? I mean buddy welcome to the real world economy, servers aren't free! Would you rather pay a monthly fee? Who cares if cash shop users get a little buff, they are paying for you to play so suck it up and shut up!
So in the end remember that video games are still a medium to make money, cash shops are there to support your freedom to play the game, so next time you see a cash shop user pass by thank him, he's helping to keep the server free for you to pay.
There you go, have a nice day
