Best Of

The alternative would have been not to give a key away for free, but that isn't very fun.

Here's the odd thing about human psychology. In many cases, not giving a gift at all would have been better than giving a "gift" that is not just worthless but also self-serving (spending incentivization).

You basically gave me a coupon for a free drink if you buy a meal at a restaurant you own.

Since the drop rates on the "not fun" stuff is much higher than the "fun" stuff. On balance the event is "not fun".
At the moment, 10 x 5 star... sorry valiant crystals are better than 5000 shards. (Side note why is it possible to high score in your group and still get shafted with 10 x 5 champs, when others are pulling 1000s of titan shards.)

If you had at least given us the chance to work for more shards it would be better received.

It's a Fantastic Force Saga Sale, that's why there are Saga items geared toward the Fantastic Force Champions.
If you don't have any of those Champions you're wanting to invest in, this one probably isn't for you - which is fine.

Then it seems to be not designed for a lot of people. It's another "spending_event".

You give us a free key that drops us into a lot of spending scenarios.
For example, the 5000 shard box seems to have a pretty high drop rate. How do you get more shards other than spending (i.e. buying more keys). Because the shards for units has an escalating price, that make it a horrible ROI. Not only that, it's 400 shards which doesn't even align with anything. Why not 500 shards?

I know your guys love your metrics, maybe throw in some sentiment analysis.

I won't make any comments on the game mode itself because I am a little biased since this particular style of game is the type I used to play on my phones when I was growing up, but I will agree the rewards are insane for the amount of effort required and I'm surprised your post has so many disagrees lol.

We're getting: 3.6M gold, 825 units, one Titan, two 7*s and a couple Doombots for what 5-10 bucks give or take? If this turns into a monthly thing then I really don't get how people could be complaining this much considering how easy the game mode is.

the gamemode is just 💩 no sugar coating it, stop trying to justify it because it’ll only get worse if we keep enabling it.

Nobody is justifying anything, you can dislike the game mode but those rewards are insane for the effort required. How many game modes give you a full Titan and two 7* in a single monthly cycle? None not even BGs.

When did “effort” become the main barometer? It’s a time wasting endeavor whose sole purpose is to make you waste phone battery and MCOC time allotment. Why not just have the phone display “Kabam is the Best gaming company ever!” In neon flashing colors for 15 -20 minutes a day…. And get great rewards! We would have forum posts about how everyone should just quit complaining because “look at those sweet rewards!”

What do you mean since when? Were you not here for Necropolis Epoch Ordeal etc?Rewards have always been insane depending on the effort the quest or mode required you to put in. Why are you acting like this is an entirely new concept when that's how the game has always been. Crazy rewards (until recently) always required a good amount of effort compared to the boring walk in the park this new game mode is.
And again, you can dislike the game mode all you want that's not what I'm arguing here, the argument here is the rewards are insane for the effort required and that is a fact. I don't care if you like the game mode or not that's your opinion, doesn't change the fact the rewards are crazy for such low effort and personally I'm more than happy to autoplay the whole thing for them even if it gets boring and repetitive lol.

So you will comply to any ridiculous requirement - no matter how bad the idea is, time wasted, etc… as long as the rewards are good. Kabam applauds you for being their target gamer. Enjoy staring at the flashing “Kabam is the best company ever” screen for hours in the coming months. You have decoupled any standard of fun from the game…

Completely ignored the argument about how the rewards are crazy for such low effort which is the whole point of the thread and went for passive aggressive remarks instead lmfao bye Felicia.

I merely responded to your last statement where apparently there is no threshold for bad/boring content that you won’t consent to complete if the rewards are there. If that’s offensive, I’m not sure why… that’s your call. And Kabam is betting on a bunch of people being in the same category.
