- Another unhappy customer
Like seriously who is running this place? I mean it costs you NOTHING to give Rank down tickets. But its costing you thousands not to lol. I'm so happy I run my company and we take care of our clients. We always go above and beyond and guess what. We've made a lot more money by doing that than we ever did before I took over and used to fight with customers.
2. Not all champions have the same speed and cadence to their attacks. If you play the game for five minutes you'll know that's not true. Stark Spiderman has a much more fluid attack set than Sentinel. There are plenty of other examples. Even if they were all the same, how do you explain that some champs don't have a Wasp-like description about heavy chaining, but still can do it? Your statement here is the first time that this mechanic is supposedly unintended.
3. Why did Kabam highlight a player who exploited this "bug" in its recent Community Champions Competition post? Source: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/155924/community-champions-competition-week-5
@Kabam Miike This is exactly the type of situation that merits rank-down tickets. If you want to change a fundamental feature of a champion that's been consistent for 3 years in the name of game balance, I'm honestly okay with that. That's how the game changes and evolves, I know you're not all clairvoyant and need the option to edit how champions work. But you're pulling a bait-and-switch by not giving people who ranked She-Hulk up the opportunity to react to Kabam's decision.
You must be honest with everyone and let them know that they are going to make the change, not do it and then say that this or that was not expected.
They always change something and never talk about it,, like nightcrawler and change his fight mode, like centinel when SA1 cant be countered after finisht it, and after that you remove the change of him,
Always is the same...
but the answers/interactions/reasons given so far don't address the following things regarding how She Hulk is being treated. and honestly at this point, i'm desperate for answers. I struggle to understand where y'all are coming from on this.
- There are other champions in the game who can chain a heavy onto a 4 hit combo. Why is She Hulk the only one being "fixed"?
- There was ZERO indication that She Hulk's game play was bugged or non-intended since her buff was implemented. There have been many discussions, videos and threads on the Kabam forums that talked about She Hulk being a counter for X fight, or for X quest. Not once did a Kabam Mod/Admin indicate that her current gameplay was non-intended or a bug. Youtube videos from popular content creators over the last few months have highlighted She Hulk, and not once were we made aware that any part of her gameplay was non-intended or a bug.
- Your Summoner Showdown introductions highlighted that a Rank 2 She Hulk was used to defeat the Champion boss in 6.2. This indicates that the game team was aware that She Hulk's gameplay had an "unintended" aspect to it. YET...nothing was announced or passed on to us summoners. Not only does this confirm that the game team was aware of the "issue", it confirms that She Hulk was advertised to us followers as an extremely rankable champ.
In between this time period...I took my 5* She Hulk to Rank 5 with the following in mind:
1. Content Creators (some official CCP members) highlighted She Hulk as a Rank 5 worthy champion
2. Nothing in the forums had indicated that She Hulk was not working as intended
3. The game team clearly knew that She Hulks current gameplay existed, and didn't warn/indicate summoners otherwise
With these 3 factors in mind, we used RARE and VALUABLE game resources on She Hulk.
- Given that we were not made aware that any part of She Hulk's game play was unintended, rank up resources were made on a champion whose function is being changed. To quote a Kabam Game Team member from the forums:
"Rank Down tickets are only for when a character is adjusted to no longer perform the way they once did"
Since NO indication was made to us by the Game Team that She Hulk wasn't functioning as intended, and we know that there was plenty of opportunity to warn summoners earlier...it seems only fair that She Hulk be ranked down in this scenario.
It simply isn't our fault or our control that communication and intention by the Game Team wasn't adequate in this situation. By not allowing us to move forward with the lost/burned resources, you're telling us that we are always at the mercy of poor communication/intention by the game team.
As stated above...the actions and non-actions by the Game Team lead me to understand that there was NOTHING wrong with She Hulk's gameplay. Since there was no indication that She Hulk was bugged or not working as intended WHEN THERE WAS PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY TO TELL US OTHERWISE, I struggle to understand why I should be punished (by wasting resources on a changed champion) when I did nothing wrong.
but i'm talking about the way its been handled.
I didn't say they had the same mechanics. I said they were the same type of situation. Both cases involved Champs that did something which created an Easy Street that wasn't intended. You could compare Shulk more to Drax, especially since it was never part of how she was supposed to operate, but my point is missed either way. If there's a situation that wasn't intended which makes content much easier than they had in mind for content, it will most likely be fixed. GP was a direct loophole, Drax was a framerate issue, AA was never really meant to bypass Immunity, and I'm not even going to entertain SS. Nothing was changed at all. I'm not being selfish. Quite the opposite.
