What kabam did was wrong in making the 5 awful crystals a mystery item.. But in the end it was the community that hyped up the items not kabam... Don't get me wrong this is a total joke for players... This shouldn't have been hidden but we were wrong to assume it would be something great because let's face it... The 14 day holiday calendar is the true prize... A fully formed t2a, a large wad of 5 star shards... A good bunch of tickets for an easy event with some decent rewards... Every cloud has a silver lining... Usually this stuff would cost a lot but we get it for free!

Merry Christmas to you all!

    Merry Christmas to you too but I don’t blame the players for expecting just a little out of Kabam on Chritmas of all days. But I must admit the holiday calendar is very good and I hope to see more moves like that in the future.

    Please don't get me wrong... I don't think today's mystery item was good at all... And I'm not defending that.. But the 14 day calendar contains items that would normally cost potentially lots of £ $ to get... As I said every cloud has a silver lining and don't think we should be too disappointed

    And yes Merry Christmas :)

    Its been the gifting crystals for the last 3 years. however the fact that they weren't put down as gifting crystals from the off is what has threw people and also annoyed them. all previous years we can see from day 1 that its the gifting crystals. Now they have been buffed from last year as they now contain a chance to get 5* shards so they are an improvement from last year. Still suck though lol. But hey like you said the true gift is and has always been the holiday calendar.

    Merry Christmas all :smiley:

    Honestly, i’d have been happy if they came out with a valid response that wasn’t just a read made copy paste template that Mike probably doesn’t even believe himself. Other than that, i’m not so much annoyed at the item itself, but at the fact there are people defending it as a useful item, making themselves look that stupid. You can polish a turd and give it away fo free, but ain’t nobody going to thank you for that and say they’re happy they got it.

    When we were promised clarity and better communication, it was held up for all of what, two months, with the year riddled with bugs, some gamebreaking, some phone breaking, you kind of expect something to make up for it, but for the overheating and multiple maintenance compensation, to the constant lag issues, to the champions bugs on release, to the aq bugs, its just a neber ending cycle of miscommunication, bad testers, and an absolutely terrible marketing/pr team, because they find themselves with a disgruntled playerbase more than any othr gaming, or company in general.

    Yeah you're definitely right... Totally agree, the gifting crystals should have been shown from the start rather than keeping them hidden and causing the community to get hyped and speculate it was something better than these crystals that are no use to anyone who has played the game longer than a month (2 year 600k player here!) this was played out wrong...

    But I will defend the 14 day calendar which really is a holiday present and actually useful!

    Merry Christmas

    What they should of done is when Gifting went live, replaced Dec 25th's icon with the gifting crystals instead of a question mark.

    Look at past calendars. Theres never been anything of note on this day. People need to get over themselves.

    Why do you allow this guy @Demonzfyre to keep insulting me? @Kabam Miike I try to ignoring this bully and he keeps bullying, I am trying to be civil and respectuful but when you are dealing with bullies you have to defend yourself. Please @Kabam Vydious or anybody please make this low life bully stop.
