Seems to be a bit random, big beams at Boats, NoNo, beams at Resorts GoGo. Just normal confusion added by GL

Looks like I'm not missing out on anything then.
Turns out I wasn't just old and grumpy - I was right to be pissed right off!

Not missing anything then, but they have now made the weapon for stage 2 available to buy, 3,000 rubies, yeh right.

The Stage 3 weapon has Symbiosis at least. It might be useful with a proper armor suit that has rockets. Still, it is grossly underpowered. It should have come with the Slo-mo option along with the Symbiosis. That would have made it far more interesting and workable.

With the current required armor "perk" of Unlimited Ammo" for a few seconds, it will not be easy to finish Stage 3 and get the 13* SMs. All and all, this event is a total waste of resources. I would probably have skipped it had the final statistics been known. The 'ol FOMO issue raises its ugly head.

Maybe the next event will be the blockbuster we have all been waiting for. Then again, maybe not given the offers over the past couple of years.

Looks like I lucked out and I'm not missing anything, why is it the events aren't even worth it anymore!?

It appears that GL is not putting much effort, creativity, or many resources into Sniper Fury at this point. The game has been stuck on Mission R32 for years, for example.

It has been a long run for a fairly complex Internet game. They have tried adding some new features that have had limited interest.

But the bottom line is the money aspect. Once the return reaches a certain point, Gl will simply eliminate the game without notice.

The topic of wasted resources in events has come up several times. Here is a remarkable example.

Somehow, I had a 9-day Deputy (Operator) for this exotic event. The Stage 3 weapon is now fully upgraded at the start of the stage and this is the left-over parts. With the apparent lack of usefulness of the weapon, not only are the excess parts wasted, but so is the Deputy. Oh well, now I just have to complete the event without having to fuss about getting parts.

Seems to be a theme here, and the game even has the cheek to point out today that I've 'missed out' on the event rewards, not really missing anything to be honest...
