AW Season 13: the overlooked players
This discussion has been closed.

It's massively unfair that I get no rewards at all because of the AW problems. I participated in all the previous wars & was MVP for some.
It would be fair if they give me the rewards I would have gotten if I had been in the previous alliance or the rewards for my current alliance, even though I didn't participate. Surely Kabam could at least do this on a case by case basis.
The only way to give a war package to take into account every niche situation like you want is to give it to all alliances ever registered for a war based on their rankings after war 6, if they registered for a war or not. That is absurdly vastly over compensating.
Contrary to what some players are saying, this is not a problem with loyalty. I’m not a freeloader or a jumper. I was with my previous alliance for nearly a year. But new scheduling conflicts were becoming a problem.
I always finish my AW lane, path 9 with at most 1 death, but the timing was getting close. So it was agreed I would find a new alliance. They found a replacement for me last week and I located an alliance that better fit my schedule. We made the switch last weekend so my old alliance could try and finish strong for the season and I could get in another alliance with enough time to get season rewards. It was not a step up or step down, my new alliance is in the same tier as my old one. I don’t know why they had an opening, maybe someone had an emergency and had to step away, I don’t know.
But I left my old alliance about an hour before the servers went down. Was able to join my new one after they came back about 7 hours later and at that point it was too late. They were in the middle of a war, and afterwards, AW matchmaking was broken or disabled. Thus I have not been allowed to participate in a war with my new alliance due to problems beyond my control. So now I’m being frozen out of season rewards, even though all parties involved tried to execute this move in a way that did not negatively impact anyone.
With AQ, AW, Quests, AND Arena all impacted by this for almost a full day for some people, we really should be looking at the highest, best "compensation" we've ever seen.
Not optimistic about this though. We'll likely see comp that would be "good" in 2016.
I consider a small number of possible scenarios for people who would have legitimately gotten a reward and lost out on that, the people I leave out are the people who it would be hard to argue they should get a reward. It is hard to argue that people who have been in teh same alliance and made no war attempts would have been eligible at the end of the season. is it possible they would, sure, but that is highly unlikely. the people who have a legit argument are those who joined during war 7 and lost out on registering, if you did not register for war 7 in your current then it is difficult to argue that you would have. Not impossible mind you, but very difficult. Again I listed the only way to satisfy the niches that you want covered, and that is to give everyone alliance in the game the rewards based on their placement after war 6 if they registered for a war or not, ever in the season.
Also I never claimed you said it is impossible
This approach could be extended to the individual player level by granting them the above rewards based on the highest rank any of their alliances reached during the season (assuming they participated in 1+ wars to qualify). Basically this removes the restriction of receiving rewards only based on the alliance a player belonged to at the time the season ended abruptly.
To summarize: Find each alliance's peak rank during the season. Then find each player's peak alliance rank for any alliance in which they participated in 1+ wars. Grant rewards based on the peak/peak rank.
If you claim my estimate is low then you are creating an estimate, one which is higher than mine, but like mine not well defined.
I read you comments, and I keep my focus, I am not sure why meanings of words and phrases is so hard for you to understand.
“Claiming the number does not matter is absurd’
It is not. The number doesn’t matter here. What matters is that such cases exist in the first place, and that has been conveyed in my original post.
As I’ve said many, many times now - I am not fighting for extra compensation that covers this minority. I made the post for Kabam to see, and hopefully respond to - nothing more, nothing less. You made the choice to fabricate the need for an argument around numbers and semantics. That was all you Lormif.
Again what exactly more than that are you expecting?
"my talking about the amount is because what you are asking for is very vague, you have not even defined what you feel the lacking response is"
It's starting to dawn on me that, in your haste to respond, you are either misreading or not reading what I am saying. Just one more time, to be clear - I am not asking for anything. As I've literally just said in my previous post, the purpose of this post was to convey a minority group's frustrations, not to argue a certain point, not to ask for something to be done differently, and not to place criticism on their response.
And no Lormif, lets not humour ourselves - you are arguing numbers and semantics as it's the only way for you to keep this misplaced argument going.
"Again what exactly more than that are you expecting"
Absolutely nothing, please see my point above
You are literally fabricating an entire scenario where I am demanding something for a small group of people. I'm honestly quite baffled that you're being so obtuse about the point of this post.
Do you really need to always get the last word in, even though the entire foundation of your argument is frankly irrelevant to the point I was originally trying to raise?
You are claiming that I am under evaluating the number of people affected, I never claimed 0 people were affected.
you want them to respond to you, but not to make a statement, how is that not contradictory? responding to you would be making a statement.
you are asking for something, you are asking them to make a statement on this, something they have already made a general sttement on, and you are demanding it.
I am arguing semantics because that is the most important part of a discussion. If you dont understand what you yourself is asking and saying then how can anyone else.
I'm more than happy to humour your need to discuss semantics, if you really want to.
I don't "want" anyone to respond to anything - I said that it would be nice for them to respond or comment on what they thought about the situation I outlined. This could take the form of literally anything. When I said I am not looking for a statement, I was referring to the fact that I do not expect or need Kabam to officially release a statement saying that this minority of players will not be separately compensated. This I already know, thus do not need.
Since I am merely HOPING for someone from the team to comment any insight, seeing as I merely said that this would be great to see - where am I asking for anything or demanding anything?
Hope this cleared up your confusion, happy to clarify anything else I said.
Trust me, all of this is saying much more about you than anything about me. Then again, your reputation on these forums does precede you, so this is completely unsurprising behaviour from you.
