My take on this issue is that it helps the brand new, doesn't effect the rich, and hurts the people in between slightly. The new players are obviously effected positively because of the ease of getting started through the vote capes, vote sets, easily obtainable MVP cards, ect. The richer players are not really effected because most of everything in the new update was newbie oriented. The "middle class" is where I think that the update might hurt a few players. Mainly because the MVP room's new drop rates will flood the server with Kiel's, Turtle General's, FBH's, and Tao's.This effects them negatively because one of the main sources of money making for players in that bracket is to hunt those 4 MVP's. Although there is other ways to make money and although there is other MVP's to hunt, I think that a lot of players preferred this way and I think will in turn, expand the gap between "rich" and poor. All in all I think this update is more beneficial than it is harmful, but I just wanted to put that out there.
