With Map 7 coming out

Zuko_ILCZuko_ILC Posts: 1,504 ★★★★★
Can we finally get a Map 6 reduced cost.....I think one of the biggest issues allies have of keeping their alliance together is the costs to play the maps. We've lost lots of great players that just couldn't keep up with the donation grind which is a detriment to the game. Many retired because they couldn't keep up with grinding for BC or Gold to keep playing so it was more like forced retirement. I realize you wanted to limit people from doing Map 6 at first but it should mainly be based on difficulty not having to grind for several hours just to play one portion of the game. I feel like this is a huge issue currently and should be taken seriously by Kabam.

Thanks!

    Nope. It is your choice to play map6.

    The fact that it's our choice which map we run is not an argument for not reducing the cost. There may be a good argument to not do it, but your point is merely an irrelevant statement of fact.

    No, it is not. Map 6 comes with time and resources commitment for top rewards. If you dont have the time or resources just play another map.

    It's a game not a job lol. They'd keep more players which would mean more revenue if they lowered the grind time. Some people have families and real world stuff to take care of. I've built an over 1m account and have seen many friends retire due to the grind to keep up, its definitely not something Kabam should be happy hearing they should want to retain customers. It's not about the difficulty most the guys that used to play in our top 8 ally just didn't have the time to commit to the game anymore. There should be more balance and lowering map costs does that with no loss to Kabam. It's just smart business.

    Playing this whole game is our choice. What’s your point? Arguments can be made but your point is lazy to say the least

    The multiple linked Map 6 was meant as to dissuade people from running it too often, hence it was designed to be tedious.

    If people want the T2A from Map 6 crystals, they'll need to put in the effort for it, including the grind to get enough resources to fund the maps. Otherwise, there's no shame in going to another alliance to do Map 5 or even Map 3. IMO, the main reason for burnout is greed.

    Some cases, it's also competitiveness. Some Allies just have the drive to compete. I think it's a bit of a misnomer, though. If the costs are reduced for Map 6, Map 7 will still be costly, and the demand to reduce them will come.

    We shouldn't be dissuaded from playing the game, if your skill level is there you should be able to play it. I don't have an issue keeping up with the donations but some of my friends and ally mates have over the years and some retired because of it. It's foolish to make entry fees for skilled players so high that they have to either quit the game or change their life. It's a terrible business model and thats the point of this. It's a contest meaning skilled players should be at the top but with these crazy levels of donations needed people have to play 3 hours a day to run map 6x5 which doesn't make any sense. Playing map 5 or 3 would be completely boring as even map 6 is a breeze but they are losing customers from the ridiculous costs which doesn't make them any money and actually has lost them money from customer turnover. It doesn't make any sense. Business model should be to retain customers not burn them out and lose them.
