There are some of us who will not complain regardless, if they gave me back what I used I would not complain because I was made whole. Is it more difficult than just sending out a couple revives and pots, sure, but it is no where near as hard as you claim. They did not fully compensate here, they partially compensated, while giving some people who were not harmed the same rewards. I would not care about the latter if players were fully compensated for their loss. And it is assuredly not a no win situation. They could take the time and effort needed to fully compensate those harmed, after all the bugs were on them not us. With the exception of havok we had no way to know the event was bugged.
I didnt fight the broken Thanos cause my exploration of events is based off of completion and hero use events. So the experience for me wasnt as difficult. And I always wait for YouTube videos that show the strategies and one shot methods for final bosses.
But I just dont understand how you can get smashed that bad and not just leave the fight and reenter.
1) that it was somehow it was UC, this was a bug across all difficulties
2) they spend 2k plus units, because that many units spent on an encounter draws contempt from the free to play crowed.
These are not facts in evidence.. The rewards were meager, if you just used a couple team revives, 200 units, you spent more than the compensation, and on a boss like master, but especially UC, 200 units is not unexpected or grossly out of line for people.
Yes some people pointed out that it was bugged, but that was here on the forums where more than likely less than 1% of the player base comes, and even then it was only reported as a possible bug, and this is where kabams crappy bug alerting system comes into play, they dont alert players until, they just wait until it is fixed, and then say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ , then people like you come into and say people should have assumed it was bugged, and should not have spent x amount of units to play something that you assume, but there was no evidence of, it being bugged.
in addition there is 300 etc between there and your 2k analogy. Do you play uncollected? Do you never spend units on uncollected?
It does not matter how much they would have spent had it not been bugged, that is 100% irrelevant from a kabam is responsible situation. We are encouraged to spend units when we cannot beat something. This creates a moral dilemma, if not addressed it is in their best interest to release buggy content because they will make more money off buggy content then non buggy content.
You are the one who is bringing up people spending units being outrageous (2k)..
And yes you can discount the value of energy refills, any given month we are all loaded up with them, I typically have overflow constantly. Energy refills are a something you use when you want to speed up time, not when you need to kill a boss you are stuck on.
Yes there is no way of pleasing everyone, but your constant white knighting of the company when they dont even try is bothersome.
Given that no-one knew or even hinted at the fight being bugged - and that includes content creators most mere mortals turn to for guidance - I think it’s fairly normal many players attempted it anyway. Especially the end game community- people who are used to extremely hard and sometimes borderline impossible content.
These players should all have been refunded in full. Refund first. Then make them do the fight again, but only if they hadn’t done so after the fix went live.
As far as I’m concerned, this ‘gesture’ is to compensation as archaea are to mammals. And that’s a huge positive. At least, for me. Because on a personal level, I’m actually elated this is what it turned out to be. Had it been even halfway reasonable, I’d still be hooked. But it wasn’t. And I’m not. Quite a good feeling, really.
Have a great weekend!
Fair play and value of items have entire classes taught about them in college.
No matter what is given out, there will be unhappy people claiming that it isn’t enough or it’s unfair. So I guess over time Kabam just decided to lessen the compensation frequency and amounts since there will be people complaining anyway.
Such a waste. To think we even had compensation for extended and emergency maintenances in the past.
