Cash cow mode is on: The level cap increase to level 7 was already a bad move, but the recent announcement of level 8 only implies that you are not supposed to be able to compete with everyone if you're either rich or patient, but only if you're rich and a high spender. As a day one gold pass player I will no longer support such greedy and lazy business practices. It's really a shame, because the game itself is kinda fun and still has a lot of potential.
