    Yeah so we are gonna be paying 300 units on a grandmaster crystal with a 1% chance of a 4 or 5* and a 99% chance of a 3 star that's awesome

    Well I love to see 6 stars but before announcing 6* I wanted to see rank 5 5* possible

    Funny how they hear the fanbase pleading for no 6 stars yet they don't care. This time I'm not sure the competitive community will end up surviving. At least not entirely. People will quit, divide, take a break, etc. This change to the game will be remembered as mcocs death sentence to themselves. And yes kabam moderator I have read all the announcement and do know it's not till 2018. So don't tell me like everyone else to go back and read acting like I have a misinformed opinionated response... Well guess what? We as a community together don't want them to come Until late late 2018 if at all.

    It may seem a bit early to most but one plus to releasing them are with these comments I've been reading kabam is getting a ton of good ideas to make the release more appeasing. I see a lot of good ideas like adding a special tier to unlock on 4* champs as to not make them obsolete with the release of 6*champs. I personally think this change will stimulate other areas of the game and make it more appealing for most. Yes there will be complaints and people saying they want to quit but let's not forget why we're here, to have fun play hard and win.

    Honestly I've been playing for years it's time to quit soon...6*?..
    We can't max 5s
    Barely get4s
    5* dupes? Nope.. Can't even dupe my 4s
    6 STARS = KABAM SCARS... YOU'LL LOSE A HUGE FAN BASE.. SMH

    This reminds me so much of MWoH this game will very quickly be dead! There is no way to spin this positively, I don't think anyone is arguing that eventually it will need to happen of course it will. Nobody cares that resources will be easier to come by you'll just release 7 star champs lol. Smart companies take feedback from their loyal customers. Remember when Madden eleiminated franchise mode for one year!?! Well it didn't take long for them to bring it back after sales plummeted. Unfortunately @Kabam Miike and friends aren't going to be around to fix this screw up if it happens cause you need us to spend money to pay your salaries and license fees. It honestly makes me really sad it was terrible watching MWoH die and I see it starting again

    I would rather see the whole star system replaced with something akin to the Future Fight approach. Being able to collect the resources you need to upgrade a 1* to a 2 then a 3 and so on. The idea of eventually having 6 different star levels of the same champs isn't something I'll be playing towards.

    How about adding something different into the mix? I worry for the future of this game if tagging another star on is the limit of your imagination.

    Exactly. I was so infuriated when a mod responded to one of my messages acting like I didn't read every minor detail several times. I just read the thread created by TheBigBient in which a mod treated them the same way, and that infuriated me just as much. The majority of us do not want 6*s Kabam. Especially your biggest spenders. This is not a wise business decision.

    So, im here for the first time, decide you am i a endgame player or not, finished on 1 path the labirinth, and im now stuck in nowhere- lets say so. To 100% the labirinth i would need the right 5* champ, what i dont have. ( no SL, no Gpool, no Hyp, no CM, no Tech spidey or other decent champs here. ) but lets say i would spend shittonnes of units for revives, that i make it with 4* sl.

    Next step, i get as end reward 8 t2as, so i can bring another 2 5* to r4. Okay, im almost happy , coz i have then good prestige ( for what ? )

    I have right now 28 r5 4*, 6 r3 5* and 2 r4 5* and my t4c cat stash is almost full.

    And after this announcement of the future comming of 6*s im confused too. Coz the top alliance players who already have the lab on 100% and they was pushed to do 5-6 r4 5* , they stuck now, coz with this announcement was told too, that t5b will be released till end of this year. But what u need for r5 5*? Those anounced t5b cats AND 6 t2a cats, what are now already invested in the r4 5*.

    How much time is needed for forming a whole t2a ? Lets say with offers will it take 6 months for 1. That means 3 years from now they can r5 one of their r4 5*. Hurra.

    How makes that sense then with the releasing of the 6*?

    Have i missed something, that we can get monthly almost a full t2a?

    Dear developpers, are u in clear, with the biggest problem in game for now? U will give t5b with act5 end, but whats with t2a?? And whats with the progression of the other 5* champs, will they stuck forever on r3?

    Thanks for the reading, feel free for comments, and tell me please when im wrong with my thinking.

    @Adora_ @Kabam Miike @Kabam Wolf

    Best regards Creno

    I think everyone is freaking out a bit early. We need to wait and see how they change the ways we get 5* shards first. I mean they could make it to where we can get 4 a month and at that point the dupes will come fairly quickly. I'm going to give them a chance at least. Everyone wanted to riot when the 5.2 rewards sucked initially but these new uncollected crystals are pretty nice. Let's wait to see what the do between now and then before every one loses their minds. Give ideas and constructive feedback because we have all seen the power this community has. Let's make sure they do this right and don't punt this into the stands.
  • Luciel83Luciel83 Member Posts: 16
    This is by far the worse announce by kabam, is no new that kabam only cares about $$$ and I guess is not enough, so is really sad when a company as big as kabam doenst care about their customers, actually they never did and adding a 6 stars champs to the game is totally greedy, the 1m dollar question is that why we keep playing this game when the concept of the big companies is make ur customers happy and they always right but I guess kabam aren't really that great with customers and they will never care about us, they never will and never gonna appreciate our effort to buy pricey content while u guys have a great vacation in caribe, I been playing this game since day 1 and I think this is
    A game over for me, I hope u guys that really smart quit this game too, because this game by far is not fun anymore it feels like u have to pay for play, good thing is that I never sell my ps4 and is time for real game experience while kabam gonna keep thinking about money...!!!
  • AURELIUSAURELIUS Member Posts: 121
    Like @ThebigBient said this is just a money grabber. kabam needs to work on the glitches and bugs before you even introduce the first 6 star honestly people like me who barely get a 5* once every month or so it's hurting us in the long run they might as well just make the calendars all 10K 5* shards to even keep up the news.

    We definitely need more storage for all resources, especially considering 4, 5 and 6star champs use t1a and t4c and the fact that it takes so many to rank a 4* to rank 5 or a 5* to rank 3 or 4... and the RNG nature of crystals can really screw you over. I recently opened 22 t4c and did not get a single mystic. All other t4c are maxed out at 8, so I have 30 days before the 20 in my inventory rot. There is already a massive bottle neck for catalysts, it will just get worse unless we have more storage. (Why not let us sell t4c as shards that can be used to form a master t4c that can be used in any class?) Also, it really just means you can't rank 4* at all anymore because you have to keep enough t1a, t2a, t4b and t4c on hand to rank up a 5* from 1 to 4 in case you are lucky enough to dupe someone other that Iron patriot, hulkbuster, or the numerous other useless champs that cannot hang in map 6, or act 5, unless you are a sadist that loves to punish yourself by paying more units than you need to by using **** champs in hard content.

    20* champions coming in 2019?! haha...come on Kabam Team! Bring us something new, and not the same looking champs, with the same specials, and abilities. I know there are a ton of creative minds over there, so prove it. Give us something that makes people stick around. 6*s is clearly not the answer.

    Kabam, after your announcement my motivation to continue to increase my team has diminished.

    I have read your posts and nothing in your communication is helping on my motivation.

    I'm a medium player that for the last year has played the game intensely. My 4* line up is pretty strong. I have been saving 5* shards that will be exchanged into crystals soon - but after your announcement all the hard work to get 5* shards seems not to have payed of. Now I need to start all over again. Not only the shards needs to be saved up. Also the catalysts, gold etc has to be taking into consideration.

    An option would be just to throw a lot of money in your direction, but I will not do this. Firstly your decision the devaluate the power of 4* and soon 5* has no rationale. 6* will take control of AW and so on because some apparently are able to spend a lot of money. Secondly us Europeans and I believe every one outside the US has to pay 20-25% more for the deals even taken the exchange rate into consideration.

    My future in this game is hanging on a loose wire.

    If you don't do a massive improvement on tier 4 class catalysts and basic catalysts I don't see that this game will be a part of my future entertainment. The current announcement on this topic is simply not satisfying.

    For now I will just use Auto pilot and do the minimum work. Bye for now.

    This is what Kabam do. Squeeze the money out of you than throw you out to dry. They have never had the best interest of it's players in mind. At the end of the day, they exist to make money. And this is one of the many examples.
  • OnlyOneAboveAllOnlyOneAboveAll Member Posts: 387 ★★
    Obsolete is a very strong word here. Did 5-Stars make 4-Stars Obsolete? 6-Stars are not going to be easy to obtain, and then will be more difficult to Rank Up. We have lots more planned before 6-Stars ever make it into Player's hands, and that includes making 5-Stars more accessible.[/quote]

    The release of 5 star absolutely made 3 stars obsolete. They are pointless and a waste of space. Also with the release of 5 stars made it much more difficult to complete certain challenges because you didn't have a rank 4/55 champ. Or better yet a r 4/55 Star Lord or Gwenpool. 4 stars did not become completely useless but unless your extremely skilled, you are not completing challenging content without using several items in your inventory or units. Making the game harder isn't the answer to anything. Cause even with maxed 6 stars, only a handful of the player base will be skilled enough to beat future content (Labyrinth of Legends 2 perhaps). And that's not fair.

    You gotta love the show off with his whole t4cc stash a few posts above. This whole thread is funny to me. I will say, I agree with the fact that storage needs to be increased. Otherwise,

    This game is about progression. I was able to get through Acts 1,2,3 with 3* and less, sure. I used 4* and highly duped clutch 3* for Act 4, and the 3* only got me through the beginning of said act. Act 5 is still a work in progress, but the upward trend has continued.

    By the time you get to where you need 6*, you'll have 6*. If you're in an alliance where you're a top dawg and don't think it's fair that you won't get your shards because you're in a lower alliance, find a better alliance. This challenger rating whining is stupid. They fixed it to where PI matched rating. There's no reason you should be taking 3* into endgame, and maxed 4* is just a tick below endgame challenger rating. The game will progress the same way.

    Also, if you are one of those top dawgs and are thinking of quitting, please do. Just means I can keep on moving up without spending nearly as much money as you have.
  • guess_who_09guess_who_09 Member Posts: 3
    I'd like to add, every other hero game has 6*. The fact that people act like like this is some crazy surprise is baffling. They've been working towards it for quite some time. And if they'd announced the release after you'd maxed your 5* everyone would be pissed they wasted materials on 5* rather than ranking 6*. Either progress along with the game or don't. Quit spending your money, whatever. No one cares.
  • SunnyJim_123SunnyJim_123 Member Posts: 78
    If I remember right the company that had recently acquired kabam didn't they do future fight? And didn't they do 6* champs?? Wonder where the pressure is coming from for this??

    Kabam please stick to your morals, you know what is best for MCOC not the idiots who wrote future fights...

    Instead of releasing news on 6* champs give us news on t5b cats, alliance bases, interactive pvp or just something new that will have the community perk up again.

  • fabi0200fabi0200 Member Posts: 32
    Why not put all your energies fixing all those bugs and getting us a base before going further......i say base before 6* heroes will make us more happy and welling to stay and play more......
  • StrategicStrategic Member Posts: 632 ★★★
    So you shut down ThebigBient's thread because it showed you how much people agree with him. And to top it off you replied to it with your standard generic reply you give to everything like what a corrupt politician says when he knows he's screwing us over but doesn't give a damn as long as he makes loads of money!
    So let me add to his ,now closed for no reason, post.
    The introduction of 6* is straight up not even a question money grab! You can try to deny it all you want but we all know the truth. Me and many more in my alliance already said that once 6* will be released we are out of here.
    But I'm sure you don't care losing 99% of your player based cause you know it's the top 1% who pays your bills anyway and as long as they stay you get paid.
    Cool. Good luck with your game Marvel Contest of Wallets!
  • DeathBringer77DeathBringer77 Member Posts: 159
    Top 25 pllayer here and read the comment by big bient. Absolutely agree. All my motivation is gone after reading about 6*'s coming out. ****, it's taken me 2.5 years and a lot of money to finally have what I consider one of the best lineups out there. I'm also done with this game. I'll follow your lead.

    I'll wait for someone with a base hero rating of 200k to bash this post cause they clearly don't understand.

    I know the top players' opinions matter a lot, they have played the game for a long time now and have a lot of experience. However, I didnt quite get the concern. Is it the timing of when 6 stars will eventually become playable? Because if that is the case, I dont think it will be that soon. If you read through the discussion, the only way you can get a 6 star is through duping your five stars - Kabam was very clear you cant purchase shards. I also can't remember whether you can get them as rewards as well (maybe you can, someone can correct me here). So for you to get your first 6 stars, you need to dupe a five star 36 times (275 shards each time) to get 10k 6 star shards. Thats equivalent to 360k five star shards. And obviously the chances of you duping a five star is still rare so you will need a lot more shards. So your normal progression and objective should be to build your five star champions like what I am doing now to my four star champions. This clearly benefits the top players and not the new players like me. But what I gather from this is it gives me motivation to build my 5 star champions. I have been playing the game since Dec 2016 (9 months, and I have 6 five stars and duped 1). It will take me another, I dont know, 3-5 years, to possibly dupe all 6. But it wont still give me enough shards to get a 6 star. Some people may be very lucky to get it sooner but thats what the game is about too.

    I think announcing this soon and giving us a chance to collect shards now is good. It will still benefit the top players who have a good 5 star roster more, because they will get there sooner. And this will clearly draw the line between the top and more experienced players and the newer players.

    However, I do think that Kabam should introduce how we are going to be able to get to max our five stars. They gave more information about 6 stars but not a lot about maxing the five stars. When will we get those tier 5 cats and how.

    Anyway just stating my opinion as well.

    I swear, this is the BEST goddamn post I have ever read here in the past 2 years. Thanks, dude, for writing it.
    NetMarble needs to take the reins. Actively.
    Else, I don't mind. I am a 400k summoner in this game, played both of them during the past 2 years and a half, FF has become my MAIN game six months ago (remember?) and I really cannot find any reason to keep playing here.

    FF is my main game NOT because Mcoc sucks (which lately it DOES), but because FF never gives you the impression that you have wasted your time on it (come on, you known what I mean...). You won't find in there pages upon pages of useless 2 and 3 and now 4 star champs.

    NetMarble needs to take over.

    Actively.

    6* Champs will only break the game further!!
    Thought i would start with that to get my point across!!
    2018 is only a little over 4 months away so not a lot of time.
    To introduce 6*s 1st u would have to fix all the problems that exist in the game with 5*s.
    First of all resources and how they affect everything and that means catalysts, iso, gold, potions, crystals etc.
    How easy it is to get them and how they coincide with the level of the champ.
    Lets start with catalysts u would have to put whole tier 4 catalysts in the daily proving grounds and the class dailies.
    Introduce tier 5 catalysts and ways to get them not 1 every blue moon!
    Iso am i the only one that has a problem with iso being less in master than heroic events???
    Gold the harder an enemy is the more gold, xp, iso etc u should get when defeating him.
    Potions Ridiculous much? Tier 1 health potions are ridiculous on 4* champs and u have a cap at 25 how are u supposed to refill your champs health??? Make them % wise. For example tier 1 5%, tier 2 10% tier 3 20% etc. and take off the cap!!! And decrease the cost to get them!!!
    Crystals This is a very long topic so I will only make a couple of major points. The % in getting something is too low. The cost in units for 3&4* is too high. Need more types of crystals that u can get and not only as prizes for limited time things.
    Difficulty/Rewards the rewards for something that is difficult to get shouldn't be for a tier lower than u are but something useful for the tier u are at! ie a quest/event that u need 5 4* 5/50 champs and 20 revives to finish shouldnt give u 3* crystals and 4* shards.
    Champions Fix all the **** champions (Khamala, Colossus, Iron Patriot etc) and have all the champs as 5*s before coming out with 6*s
    Redo and fix all the Synergies especially the ones of different skin characters that u said u would fix and never did!! ie Superior Ironman/Ironman, Cap/Capww2, The Visions!!!
    Take out Challenger rating, Safeguard and all the BS stuff that are just there to make us pay to progress!
    Make rewards worth the risk/revives.
    Better matchmaking in AW don't put a 1 million pi alliance against a 10 million use prestige not overall pi cause higher players just sell off their 2&3* champs to lower it!
    Difficulty in Story mode. its STORY not end game content. The difficulty should progress but look how much it has jumped higher from Act 3 to 4 to 5 now.
    Make a new difficulty in events to entertain the higher level players and call it Nightmare or something. That way they will have new challenges every month and the main body of your players won't get the shaft.
    Fix the bugs finally!
    Anyway just a few pointers that have been gathering for a long time. I hope u listen to my thoughts cause they will surely make the game better for everyone and a happy customer spends more!!

    Poor kids, you are hurt because of 6 stars release?

    First, kabam has said many times 6 stars will be difficult to rank up, meaning they will not be level 2 at most next year.

    Second, they will be difficult to obtain. Meaning you got to dupe like 40 5 stars to get one with the shard system. Lets say we get shards in events too. Still it will taka a ridiculous amount of time to obtain one, imagine duping one!

    Third, 5 stars will be more accesible, meaning we will be able to dupe and obtain nice champs.

    Fourth, you will be able to max 5 stars before 6 stars become relevant.

    Fifht, a max 5 star will be equivalent to a rank 3 6 star. You will have rank 3 6 stars maybe in 2019.

    Stop crying kids, i am happy that feature 5 stars are a thing of the past. Enjoy your 15000 shards to obtain a basic!!!
