Re: Let’s talk crashed

Honestly with all this energy refill drama, I think they should remove energy all together, I mean, why should it be in the game?

Re: Let’s talk crashed

This thread/discourse should have happened a long time ago. It reminds me of a conversation my wife had with me a while back during a bumpy phase. I’ll summarize it here:

her: you don’t listen to me and it feels like we’re at the end.
me: you’re crazy sweetheart. Everything is fine from my perspective. I love you and I love us.
her: you didn’t hear me at all. I said you do…

me: shhh shhhh shhh. You’re being crazy. We’re fine

Her: omg. I literally just told you what wrong with me and you’re gaslighting me.
me. No I’m not. I love you. You’re overreacting. We’re fine.
Her: I want a divorce

We made it through, but only because I finally took my head out of my ass when she said we’re done and I stopped giving her answers from very limited perspective and starting being more empathetic to hers. We are telling you everything that is wrong. And to be clear, there is A LOT wrong. I would argue this game is in the most precarious position it’s ever been in, regardless of the whales and the spending or whatever. @Kabam (Osaurus) Rex @Kabam Crashed we are telling you what is wrong. We don’t care whose fault it is, we just want something changed. The fact is, if you don’t fix it, a lot of people will be divorcing you. This isn’t Zemo gate or 12.0 nerf or any of the other blips over the past decade. This is the big one. If you ignore that, be aware that a lot of us won’t be here much longer.

Re: preparing for the banquet event - f2p

Do the minimum spend to complete the milestones for solo and alliance events and stop. Rank rewards are rubbish unless you're trying to get top 30 and not worth the umit spend, and the banquet crystals themselves have been awful the last two years.

Re: Have the latest energy changes negatively affected your gameplay?

Yes, it takes me 10-15mins to burn through the energy, then wait for 7hrs and repeat if I remember to. Just the perfect engagement that Kabam is looking for.

Re: Boycott Kabam :)

@Demonzfyre Yes, and that’s fine, except that wasn’t the intent (see Pinwheel’s post), and it’s more the fact that the money-based part launched without issue, as always. Plus you know, the many other longstanding/serious issues. I believe we had a bit of a dialogue about the dev diary the other day?

Suggestion to Kabam on the easy step to deal with the current crisis

I am speaking from my personal experience but it can be probably relatable to others players as well. If you think about it, the current situation when people simply cant play the game is not that much related to the shrinkage of available energy refills as to the new system of Daily Quests. From my understanding the first thing most players now do when logging into a game on any day is running the Supply Run since it gives the most valuable resources (units, revives, sigs, tickets to access even more valuable stuff on Sunday etc.) with little effort. Supply run consumes 60 energy leaving an average player with just 10 or slightly more left. You cant do anything with that 10 energy in the game afterwards => done, your fun with the game is ruined. Yes you can login a few hours later but usually your first launch of MCoC daily is the one you expect to get the most, do most of the stuff and may be comeback later just to finish the leftovers. Also as I already wrote in another post a lot of "grown ups" simply dont have the opportunity to play the game more than once daily due to more important stuff in their lives so Supply run is all they can do now or miss on a large chunk of daily resources.

You can say that the Apothecary used to be as much important previously. But its not. First it just gave you only potions/revives, second it cost much less energy - 48 and the third you had tons of energy refills to use one afterwards and proceed to something else. Not even close to today.

So what can be done to at least partly salvage the situation and return at least a bit of fun in the game it used to have, if you insist that Energy Refills are suddenly such precious resource now, despite what was happening in the game for 10 years prior and everybody was perfectly happy with that (btw, dont notice the corelation "Everybody happy = game exists for 10+ years"? No? Ok, just asking).

Just lower the energy consumption for Supply Run from 3 to 2 thus lowering the total energy consumption from 60 to 40. That will leave a player with 30 something energy afterwards. He ll get another 10-15 while doing some other stuff (Arena, AQ/AW) as regen and 20 as help from Alliance (it will give more incentive to be in a more or less active one). So in an hour or so he will have 60+ energy that will be enough to finish a path in Story/EQ, do some exploration, finish most of other Dailies or just have a decent number of fights in BG.

With that and with 2 additional Energy Refills you kindly allowed us to have weekly as backup it will make playing the game at least manageable.

You live in a bubble with how you respond to things. No way you go through your everyday life with that "well technically" stuff. I promise the point you're making to that person applies to literally everything outside of mcoc that you yourself is overlooking. You're being contrarian on purpose for no reason. Find happiness.

Re: Is this supposed to be a joke?

I don’t see why you’re having issues with energy. Just do what I’ve done: play less. No lower level EQs to do, no BGs, no more act quests, etc. Run the boring dailies for easy points, then lower side quests also on auto, and bare minimum arenas for units.

I mean, that’s what Kabam wants… right? 🤔
