**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

    Hey All,

    We're currently working with our partners to correct an outage. We are working to get this fixed as soon as we possibly can. We are very sorry for this extended downtime. We will update you all as we have more information

    We would prefer compensation not an update on information, Thank you very much.

    Kabam should just not count this war for the season for everyone(fair across the board), and just extend the season by 1 war. Also 30 min timers would be nice...

    We lost War that would have won if could have logged in to kill out last 2 nodes. And it cost over 71,000 points that is huge when only running 1 BG. And I doubt there is any type of compensation for this except losing alliances getting to win and winning alliances getting to lose. I guarantee we would have won. Like a lot of other alliances we wait until the last hour to finish it off but not givin that chance today.

    I’m just curious if you’re going to try to make up for this, or if you just delete post and say too bad like usually do.

    every time the contest breaks for an hour, why not stop the clocks on AQ and AW for that hour so everyone can finish when the game gets fixed?

    Fight earlier. Don’t die as much, outages suck and are beyond anyone’s control. Alliances leaving wars to the last hour is controllable.

    Dude. Sometimes that isn't possible due to matchmaking times and attack start times.

    We got lucky in that we finished both earlier, but a little earlier and we'd be screwed as well.

    That's fair for everyone that lost because of that but not fair for everyone that won the war fair and square.

    The game went down at the end of the AQ and Aw andwe as well as some alliances were making a push this **** from you guys at Kabam.now we are going to lose out on reward for not only now but for the season and AQ end rewards. Bad timing for alliances and Perfect timing for Kabam right.

    Well that doesn't help us finish AQ! We currently have 7 minutes left to take out last node and boss, literally a 5 minute job but not looking like we'll get the chance! We should have had a nice comfortable hour+ to get it done! Thanks Kabam!!

    This isn’t as reasonable as it sounds. Especially after they introduced the new system where we can’t choose when we start wars anymore... some people may just be waking up just before the end of war. Attack phase is meant to be 24 hours, it shouldn’t matter if you complete it after 12 hours or 23...

    I get it but everyone has roughly the same 24hr time period. Ask anyone in my BG how much I push to get moving. There are reasons aside from my charming disposition

    What will happen for alliances that had not took bosses in AQ or AW before game went down but were waiting to do so? It’s now going to be expired by the time they get game back up
  • TotalMonster109TotalMonster109 Posts: 57 ★
    Lost AQ just needed to explore 1% if 1 person had of moved we would have been able to fully explore but no one could log on because emergency maintenance. thank you Kabam you never seem to disappoint 👍

    Don't blame the customer for trying to accomplish the task during the time that was given to them.

    What is going to happen when the war ends and and we won't be able to finish because of this outage?

    Depending on your ranking, you'll either drop or get magic points from Kabam.

    This is part of the reason why most people were against your BS new AW matchmaking system. Why do y'all feel the need to keep changing the game and taking control away from the players instead of fixing your busted ass game?!?! What happened today with this "emergency maintenance" needs to stop! Not that y'all will listen because y'all simply don't give a ****!

    Is the game going down a new thing? Not to my recollection.

  • Pseudo53Pseudo53 Posts: 9
    @Kabam Miike Its not new thing. Every second day same issue.. Some members got stuck in story quest.. few in AW exploration. This outage has become very common. Please try to fix the bugs

    You're not addressing how this has affected everyone in the closing hours of war and aq. We don't care what you do with your partners. Shouldn't you be testing before trying anything new? The load on your servers???
    Give them time to fix it and stop whining

  • Shawnp77Shawnp77 Posts: 6 ★
    What about the crashing it's getting really bad, over 30 times in the last 2 days. It's happening to multiple people in my alliance
  • Liss_Bliss_Liss_Bliss_ Posts: 1,779 ★★★★★
    Let them fix the issue first then discuss course of action. Everyone demanding compensation before an issue is fixed is just childish. Seriously if they said anything about compensation and then we have longer downtime people will QQ even more.

    Let them get this issue fixed and then they will look st how this affected everyone.
  • jrkst34jrkst34 Posts: 15 ★
    Guys don't be ridiculous, Kabam doesn't need to "buy new servers", they certainly use cloud servers like the rest of the modern world. They said they are working with their partners to fix it...that's the cloud service. SMH...

    Is it up for anyone else? I can get in, but I'm in New Zealand so probably on different servers
