Best Of

I was beginning to wonder when the doomsday posts were going to show up again.
This game isn't planning on going anywhere anytime soon. This is one of the longest-running games of its kind, and I certainly consider it the most complex.
However, this is still a mobile game, and it will always have certain limitations. Comparing it to games like CoD and Fortnite is obsolete. Different platforms, audiences, mechanics, companies, too many differences to consider it a reasonable comparison.
Some people just fall out of love with this game and get bored. It's totally fine, it happens all time. Others will still play, and some will pick it up for the first time. It's not a foreboding sign.

I don't think anybody here actually cares about the well-being of Kabam and their success and longevity as a company. Good for them and their future spenders I guess but what about me, what about him, what about her? I don't want Kabam to succeed, I want to enjoy the game I play. Surely they are both intertwined but that's besides the point. Why would I care about their excitement for the future if I'm losing mine today? You may think and feel for the company but I don't, I only wish them success as long as they deliver what I want from them and that's what a healthy individual does throughout their entire life. Its not a matter of entitlement either, there is no emotional bond between me and a company in the first place. You repeat what they say as well, game is going nowhere with their stable income and growth. I'm just expecting to see some of their resources invested towards fixing issues me and many who think alike find harmful for their gaming experience since if else our joy will slowly fade away and we'll eventually disappear with someone else to take our place. You might not care about the individuals and approach these issues mechanically like a company would but I don't. I think for myself and for those who share my thoughts. I frankly wouldn't care if a game I no longer enjoy lives or dies and that's what anyone with some self-respect would do. And its only natural if I question a company with this much success for their decisions whether they take it into heart or not.

Problem is not that the game seems to be dying to us since there's no way we can tell. Its the fact that the game we used to love is dying and its only understandable if we voice our concerns with hopes to be heard.







Like Mordo sp1 missing in RoL for example. How the hell does that happen, they can't even dex?!

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.

Easy solution, scrap the Traders Outpost and give a proper amount of Radiance. Simplify the currencies as promised. When I say proper I really mean a reasonable small ammount for the effort; but thats at least a simpler store that won't be botched with bundles of items thrown together.

Radiance is a competitive currency, it will not replace Mysterium.

We also never "promised" to simplify all other currencies - we said that if Radiance was successful, we would look into doing the same with engagement-based currencies.

Yes I know what radiance is and thank you for clarifying something we already knew.
Now can you explain why the SQ currency is being related to AQ, AW and BG to be earned? Not just being earned but "replaced" since the no SQ for a week seems to be a repeated thing now?.

It was clarified because it was suggested to replace Mysterium with Radiance.

I did not design the Side Quest this month, so I cannot explain the design choice to you, but I can tell you that all of the objectives were engagement-based, not rank-based.
It was asking you to defeat opponents in different modes; you didn't need to win anything.

Well then scrap the mysterium store, put little bits of radiance and ask us to defeat opponents in different modes without needing to win anything. Just ask us to engage. I mean you are already asking people to participate on this competitive modes for Mysterium, why can't it work the other way?

You're overlooking the distinction between competitive-based currency and engagement-based currency.

An engagement-based currency is something earned through active participation, interaction, or consistent activity within a platform, regardless of competitive outcomes. Nothing is asking you to outperform anybody else to acquire the Mysterium this month.

I understand why you would suggest replacing the Mysterium with Radiance, but that is not the purpose of the addition of Radiance.

I can’t believe you guys are still talking about this.

We are not kabam, so we don’t ignore issues until everyone forgets about it

We don't do that, either.

We've talked about Mysterium a lot here.
There's nothing to share about it at this time.
I've brought all the feedback to the team, and I'll poke at it again this week - but as of this moment, nothing is changing.

I used to be able to pick up all T6B/T3A selectors and 7* shards from the all store, which was 16k and 10k, leaving with a bit leftover to spend on saga items or other stuff.
NOW, with a new update store, which is great, I can’t afford for a half of what I used to pick up.
What’s the point of upgrading store with increased values if we can’t keep up with it with the mysterium that’s available. Either way, it looks like it was cut down “unintentionally” by spreading it through 3 weeks and delaying it, or it needs to be increased to accommodate the new store prices.
Help us to unscrew this situation, please.
