I would agree - I generally like the gameplay, it has some fun options and a unique theme, but the microtransaction model they are using is both overpriced and geared towards 'spend lots of money and you will win'. If they implemented a better priced, better balanced transaction option (such as Tribal Wars or Combat Arms) it would be much more appealing and level the playing field.
