Level Cap: has Kabam ever officially responded?

Kibi

its gonna be 5 years in december i believe and lvl 60 is getting old, not to mention all those mystery masteries. what's the deal Kabam when can we expect a cap raise?

Cliffordcan

They have commented a few times, I believe with the releases of act 5 and 6.

I think masteries are something that updates themselves as the meta changes. Suicides, for example, we’re super popular early in the game. Then Alliance war came along and suddenly suicides weren’t worth it when your defenders would die super fast. Today, some of the games best characters are very suicide friendly, (Corvus, ghost, omega) so the popularity of suicides is on the rise again.

Honestly, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Masteries are balanced as is, so adding new levels/mastery points/masteries would be a massive undertaking with betas, feedback, and maybe compensation.

Kibi

huh? I'm talking about this:

SiriusBreak

Yeah, those have been 'coming soon' for quite sometime now. Curious what they've had in mind for them.

CoMinow

It's been so long...... #alliancebases

The answer is yes, they've responded. Their response was that they weren't ready to add more Levels because that would involve adding more Mastery Points. As to whether that response has changed, I'm unaware.

Why would adding levels require adding Mastery Points? Simple solution: Level 61 and up gets +10 sig stone crystals or something instead of mastery points and they add mastery points again (if they ever do) some other way like exploration of Act 6.

not required, but it's just been done that way so it would make sense to again. it's not a bad system. we can get sig stones other ways like we have been.

Historically, if you look at mmo's, for example, it's been done this way in games like WOW when level caps were raised (and others I'm sure).

Search level cap and look at those threads. If you would have done that in the first place, you wouldn't have had to waste your time with this pointless thread. Theyve stated over and over there is no discussion about increasing the level cap right now.

Read my post, "💣 Why we need Summoner Level 70 (WITHOUT new Masteries!) 😮". They don't HAVE to add more Mastery Points, they can simply add different rewards, like some T2AF, T5BF, 6* Shards, etc. Things that would entice higher end players to grind out and level up.

eww, you can literally get all those things right now as is. mastery points should be specific to leveling up to maintain the novelty of it imo.

Which is a shame considering it hasn't been increased since October 7th, 2015. Youd think they could easily come up with something else, I already listed a ton of reasons why Level 70 would be a great idea and how it could work in the thread I plugged twice in this thread. Its not pointless, it's a good question which needs to be asked every now and then.

216 search results. Not against a level increase myself but it's not on their radar right now.

That was totally to shut the discussion down. Act 4 exploration didn't have anything to do with levels, but it had a mastery point as a reward. It's not an iron rule that Mastery Points must be only given for levels and leveling must include Mastery Points. Kabam can choose not to tie them together. Pretty simple. God, they need to get the character creation team on some of these issues, because the people making these decisions now are like rigid thinkers who know there's something outside of the box, but that scares them so they're going to ride out outdated rewards and structures.

Kibi

yea game is 4.5 years old now. traditionally level caps and expansions have also gone hand in hand.

to respond to SlayerofGods, yea it would offset their balance because it would help us, the players, to clear higher end content.

also like i said i already searched and saw nothing from this year. we are the clients and we need to keep bringing this up. thats how everything else gets done. if you don't say anything they won't give you jack.

Then obviously its something the community wants, they can make it happen, they just haven't yet for some reason. Maybe they have other plans that would somehow contradict adding more Levels. Im not sure, but after requesting Champion buffs for so long, weve finally started to get some.

Request something reasonable long enough, and youll get it.

Uhh no. It's been 4 years and people have been asking for that long. They have been buffing champs for a long time as well even before 12.0, that's part of the changing meta. The level cap has zero to do with the meta.

Yes it's something the community wants, so are rank down tickets, real time PvP, free 5 and 6*'s, trading champs, less rng rewards and a strong case for Batman in the game... We haven't gotten any of those aside from RDT's and those are always a bad idea.

But its not reasonable as theres no real reason to raise the cap. They arent going to introduce new masteries as they've confirmed that. They arent ready to increase the energy cap either as that's another frequently asked question.

Rank down tickets are bad for the game as it defeats the purpose of resource management and rank strategy.

It hasn't quite been 4 years, and I doubt a majority of the players were asking for Level 70 the DAY level 60 came out, or even months after it.

I also used the word "reasonable", RDTs, Batman, live arenas, help all button, free stuff, etc is not reasonable. It just depends on what you see as that. Kinda took that outta context and ignored the fact I used that word.

I think its reasonable to want a level increase.

I also meant major buffs like Lule Cage and Red Hulk, not ones like Magik.

It's reasonable to you. Right now, there isnt a reason for Kabam to raise it.
