Re: Pause abusers - Finally the solution!
Pausing is not an advantage. Unless they're paired against someone who is so terrible at the game...... Like you.OkOn top of this, what about the innocents who have legitimate reasons to pause in a match? Should someone really be punished for needing to pause a match in the middle of it because their dog decided it wanted to eat something they shouldn't? I know if I'm in a match and someone asks me a question, I will sometimes pause my game so I can give them attention while I answer before going back to it. If you decide that all pausers need to be punished because some people exploit the pause function, then you will take down a lot of innocents in the crossfire of this war you have decided to wage.So if someone has bad internet and it takes forever to load the match, then they get punished because the automatic system determined they were pausing when in reality it was their internet being bad?That's a lot of manual review. Do you want to be paying thousands of dollars in man hours to individually inspect every single match that meets this criteria for something that kabam has said that they aren't even going to action on? I'd rather all that time and money be spent on stopping the modders who are actually cheating.They can create an auto data inspect
Of course they may have real match time played.
If match is less than 25 seconds really played (the remaining time nothing happened ...eg Hits, dex...)
So... Its a pause abuse
Or rather should we make the client even more complicated by having the ability to track when the game is paused and raises a flag to the bot for action. The whole caveat being that there would be no action taken because kabam is fine with pausing in BGs and that's a lot of work to create something that does nothing.
In all seriousness, I would give up trying to "fix" and issue that kabam doesn't see as a problem. You'll get just as much done telling these things to a brick wall.
But, always this talk
To pause and read, pause and take care of the dog, pause and answer a call.
I think real life is way more important. If something like this happens to me I just quit the fight. No need to get any advantage.
Lets see if any person from Kabam staff answer 👍

BATTLEGROUNDS SEASON 29 SEEDING UPDATE
Greetings Summoners,
Earlier today, players who entered Battlegrounds within the first 20 minutes of the Season being live were erroneously seeded higher than intended.
There wasn't a clean way for us to remedy this without shutting down the Game Mode or restarting the Season, which would carry substantial additional risk.
To reduce complications, we will not be adjusting any seedings from where they currently are, but we're going to be sending a general Battlegrounds Compensation instead.
This is for ALL Players who reached the Gladiator Circuit last season

Re: Incursions GOLD, what happened ?
Dude!! Are you this dense? OP is talking about the gold amount in incursions being lower than what it has been in the past. This has no relevance to what you are saying.If your crying about half a million gold per week then you don't have enough gold stashed or taking the avenues to have a stash. Are you ranking up every champ you get? If you are, don't. You then also said gold is a limited recourse. It's the one resource is game that is actually unlimited but you have to do the work and proper management to make it that way. So your obviously doing something wrong. Do you do arenas? I have 110 mil in gold and yet I still buy the weekly gold in the outpost. Why? Because it saves me the arena grind for a week. If I did arena I'd have far more gold. I also do not rank up every champ I acquire. It's ok to let some sit at r1 for eons. I have played incursions enough to know I don't enjoy it but I still slug out the saga incursions when they roll around. It's also OK to sell your expiring iso and consumables for gold. Gold is by far not a limiting resource.No, my post doesn’t say “incursions doesn’t give enough”Valuable? Mysterium? Ya lost me there. Im valaint as well, I can get all of the gold, 7* shards and 6* shards every week with the 27k mysterium so your doing something wrong. You post says incursions gives a little bit of gold per week and then says it's not enough right? We'll the solution is the traders Outpost to get more of what you claim to be lacking.You get more gold per week from the traders outpost.That’s not what I’m speaking about though? I’m speaking about incursions.. did you read the title of the post you are commenting on?
Who wants to spend a valuable limited resource (Mysterium), on gold and iso bricks? Me personally, I’m valiant and I’m always barely able to claim the top 2 rewards from the traders outpost, with the 27,000k Mysterium in the milestone objectives. Leaves me left over with 1,000 Mysterium. Cant buy much gold with that.
Incursions isn’t giving the correct amount, to begin with. Clearly you don’t play incursions and that’s ok. And Mysterium, valuable, yes, because it gives me either 4 T6 Basic or T3 Basic, per week.. that’s pretty valuable….

Re: What's the history behind your username on Forums/game and your Champ avatar here?
Interesting, I always thought your username was a reference to Cayde-6’s ghost from Destiny.Nope. Not even a reference to the Sundance Kid. I was using a bunch of aliases in the Quake 2 demo, and wanted to find one to stick to and around that time, my dad asked my mum "where's sundance?" Meaning me, when he usually called me sunshine. I liked it and adopted it. I have used variations in some games like Sgt. Sundance in COD and Mace Sundancer for Star Wars gamesSpider-Man is my favourite character and I prefer the OG profile pic.I always thought you were just a big fan of the Sundance film festival.
Sundance_2099 is a spin on my long term online name plus 2099 just because of Marvel 2099.
In game name is Spider-Bloke2099 as a joke to the name Spider-Bloke that I said Peter should use as a UK Spider-Man when ASM2 was out.
Re: BGs
Kabam confirms again… they care nothing about a summoners time.Am I the only one that's still annoyed by the "solution"? I have to put in extra work to get my radiance regardless this is bs.Nope.
And large accounts who finished in GC last season but got started in Vibranium this season can run up the score against small accounts with no business being in GC (some of whom may not even have played BGs last season).
It is a very weak solution.

Trophy tokens… devalued greatly
Elders marks? The milestones haven’t been updated in forever.
Signets and energy? lol.
This is pathetic
Issue with battleground progression in new season
I ended last bg season in Uru 2 and in new season I have dropped to Diamond 4 which doesn't make any sense. Even many people below my progression are above me

Re: Issue with battleground progression in new season
Similar issue with me as well. I went form Uru 2 to diamond 4 which doesn't make any sense. Many people in vibranium 1 last season are still in vibranium.1

Re: BGs
Am I the only one that's still annoyed by the "solution"? I have to put in extra work to get my radiance regardless this is bs.Nope. Those who started in vibranium get more value out of their elders marks as well as at least an 18 match head start on the 100 and 200 point milestones. A former community manager used to annoyingly remark that time isn't a valid resource but that's 3 hours of time spent playing the game they are ahead assuming you win every match.
