Community grade for version 22.1 and April EQ

Very simple, give a letter grade for Kabam’s performance this month. It is a simple, objective, non-judgmental way to share our feelings about this months updates and EQ. If you must provide comments, please be constructive and within forum decorum rules. I’d like to do this poll monthly.

Big fat F from me. This has been the most buggy update that I can remember. Had to completely change the way I played to get through the content. Had to restart a lot due to lags and glitches. Lost arena streaks more than once from arena fights just freezing multiple times in a row. Ghost Rider is still broken, so is Rhino. Actually, a lot of champs who have multi-hit specials will miss and then you get wrecked. Can't use sp3's on any hard content because my champs charge in after sp3 and get killed. There's muliple other issues which I'm sure others can chime in on. I have zero faith in the next update fixing all the issues. I only expect more glitches.

I think the amount of Fs so far people have given is a bit unfair.

I think a lot of it has to do with the bugs this month, it’s been frustrating for a lot of players. I gave an F but outside of the bugs a C/D+ is probably more fair.

I think this is a bit subversive. We're all aware it was a hard month.

How are letter grades subversive? This is an elementary feedback system meant to provide data. If kabam is performing to standards then there will be a bell curve (standard deviation). Any skew towards any extreme demonstrate an issue.

The moment we consider opinion, grading, and polling subversive is sad day.

Love the Bounty event. Happy with Variant 2 difficulty level. Everything else sucked

It's subversive because it's "constructive", but we all know people just spent the last month giving feedback on the issues present. We know there were problems. There's an implication here.

i sincerely wish kabam could address and solve these bugs in a more attentive manner.

this is also for their own benefit in the long run, or else the bugs will only accumulate over time, and then you realize it's too late to fix all of them. for instance, the bugs related to symbiote supreme should be fixed 3 months ago, but we still dont have an answer.

one suggestion is that whenever after you say "we will look into it," perhaps give us some updates once a while. I notice that often a mod would comment "we will look into it" without really following up on the issue, and the thread will just disappear, unless the thread has like over 3 pages of replies. for instance:

1. lagacy's thread about interaction between armor break and physical resistance - https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/123310/map-7-bug

the mod commented "we are looking into this issue now" on Feb 22. so what's the update?

2. same with the list of symbiote supreme bugs: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/111040/symbiote-supreme-bugs/p1

the thread started on last December, and mod replied and acknowledged the issues on Jan 19. however, it's not until these two days when people brought up SS bugs again that they replied in 3 months!

Personally, i think these are the areas that could be largely improved. and generally, i hope this will help kabam bridge a better, and more effective, communication with the player base.

So based off the actual content I would give it a grade of an A. Why? Event quest was fun, human torch as a defender was fun to fight and the story line was cool. The bounties were really great not long and gave out a boat load of shards and frags.

Based off the bugs and time I would give it an F. It was too short and had too much to do, I will not be able to farm units as I usually do. The bugs were insane and never fixed. And alliance war seasons were delayed (rightfully so) since the bugs were around.

So average would be a C.

This month had pretty bad lag and bugs. A lot of bugs. I honestly found this to one of the more boring EQ's, due to the lack of interesting fights and high energy costs.New Champs were fairly meh. They're both pretty good but aren't going to change anyone's game if they get them. The one thing that saved this month from a straight F? Bounties. They are bloody amazing. Great rewards for low effort, even if they do get a bit repetitive. Possibly the best side event we've had apart from GGTTM.

If game is broken due bugs lags etc. Cant get more as F this is worst month since i play.

Meant f for the updat but the EQ was fun

Carames

Mostly unplayable and terrible communication from the game team.

Variant 2 seems fun and the bounty were a great thing! But I won't finish Variant until They fix the bugs... The event quest and other events were decent and would have been made it worthy of a B grade... Both Champs are great additions too.... But the insane bugs... The special attacks while blocking, the start up glitch, the parry and framerates being no good, the disappearance of the back draft intercept technique, THE MISSING ACT 6 REWARDS FOR PLAYERS! that's not Including the ones they already did a hot fix for its all too much and the rest need to be fixed ASAP! The bad outweighed the good this month unfortunately!

Bounty event has been vastly improved since last time (I think it's actually good now).

But the game is in an awful state IMO. Too many bugs and too much lag. Game is so hard to play.

LeNoirFaineant

EQ was good. Variant 2 was fantastic. Bounty missions were good. They fixed Domino and my Emma still has a huge prestige bump bug lol. I still have zero lag. Plus it seems a little ridiculous to release a grade Kabam poll when everyone knows that people are unhappy lol. If you had been doing it every month that would be different.

None of the bugs affected me directly in any substantial manner and I love bounties - quick, easy and tons of 5star shards. Uncollected eq was very easy, 2nd easy eq in row. Free 5star crystal at beginning of the month is something I would never expect from Kabam and I'm still picking up my jaw from the floor after it. I like season wars delay, because I can take a break from it (my alliance doesn't play wars off-season). The only thing that truly dissapointed me was keeping bs cooldown timers on dungeons, but Im not lowering grade for that, cuz I gave up on them already

Extremely mixed bag. Kabam still has done a poor job handling lag and bugs. The event quest is too short. But the bounty missions are extremely lucrative and an significant improvement from last July as itt happens every 8 hours

Arbiter2426

Honestly I had no bugs or problems at all so I'll give them an A

FreeToPlay_21

If it weren't for Variant #2, this update would've been a complete waste. Great initiative by the way, I don't know if it will do any good but let's just hope Kabam actually sees this poll.

Trash except for bounties
