Community literally got accustomed to the terrible AI that there are no outrages as often anymore. Sure, "fix the AI" could be an unrealistic request for short term but I remember how it used to be 2 years ago and honestly it only got worse. I don't recall a single positive change but new issues are constantly added on top of the already problematic situation.

"AI light/special intercepts, AI can parry randomly, AI has insane reaction/recovery time" etc.

I ask everyone here, can anybody wholeheartedly claim that any of these issues got better even if slightly? Did the state of AI on any of these aspects improve? @World Eater has been begging for a simple bug fix for how long, over a year now I guess? Most recent response he got was that the bug wasn't consistently reproducible and wasn't priority though it affects champions like Ghost a lot and is easy to reproduce tbf.

Now that makes you wonder, "what are the priority bugs they work on?".

It certainly isn't the bug where you had to restart the game to get the crystals you got from a calendar which took many months to be fixed.

Not the one where you couldn't see the drafts of a battlegrounds match from your match history either. In fact, it got fixed just this update after yet again many months!

Did you know that some people still can't rotate their screen no matter how much they tilt their phones while the game is open? This one has been going on for over a year now but turns out its not their priority.

The game crashes in battlegrounds still exist, the bug where your first champion is autodrafted before you even get to see your options still exists etc. but I guess there's no time for those when new ones get added every update and take priority over the already existing ones.

We keep repeating like parrots that "whales are keeping the game alive". Maybe its not as one sided as it seems when whales fund the game so effectively that Kabam allows themselves to ignore such problems and the community sentiment for so long? Doesn't mean that we should burn the whales but their actions don't affect us as net positive if you think about it. There are no excuses at this point, if you're gonna boast about your financial stability and success then maybe you should show some accountability when you face valid criticism instead of going silent like almost every time?



But then again there's unfortunately a ftp shaming going on in the forums so my last paragraph might be taken out of context and get me nuked by the whale glorifiers. Those people will be the same ones criticising Kabam for every breath they take though cause that's just the way it goes. (I'm a low to moderate spender btw so please don't come up to me with "You do nothing for the game so opinion rejected", ty 🙏)

In a game like this, F2P players do contribute by keeping the game active and providing an audience, which in turn motivates spenders to spend. But the reality is that the bulk of the financial support—and therefore the survival of the game—comes from spenders and content creators. Without them, there’s no money to keep the servers running or fund updates.
