When 5*’s were at the heart of the prestige race, it probably made sense to be stingy with signature stones. But at the top, high level 6*’s increasingly populate players’ top 5. So why still lock the 5* sig stones away?
It kneecaps those of us who just want to get decent 5*’s to a sig level where they are relevant to the content. And the team tends to keep scaling champ sig levels (Exception: Nick Fury) where you actually need a high level to play them effectively Act 6 and beyond.
It feels like this too has been asked for again and again. Is anyone listening?

I couldn’t agree more with all of this.
I am in a similar boat. Have completed act 6, I guess I would consider myself an end game player, but the game doesn’t seem as exciting anymore.
I took a week off of it last week and it was relieving honestly.
My feedback would be similar ;
• what’s exciting to me is new champs, but after years of spending units for cavaliers, I have only got a new champ at a useable * two times— sunspot and mr sinister (tells you how far and In between these are). It’s deflating to save up 6k units to purchase cavs and still get 3*s
• secondly with new champs, the new ones so far this year are disappointing. It seems to get high damage hits you have to do all these crazy things then build up a special 2 , which just seems to make the game more complicated.
Also I don’t understand why some characters have been asked for for years, and we don’t have them, yet we have so many duplicates of spider man, black widow, etc.
I know some of this may be contracted stuff, but there are way too many characters in the marvel universe to pull from to have 3 black widows in this game.
• 6* pool is disappointing. When you save up for a month and a half, maybe two months to get a 6* , then pull someone who isn’t useable at all, it’s so deflating and makes me think what’s the point. Also I still don’t understand why Joe Fixit is not to weak to be a 6* yet SW and Wolverine are somehow too strong to be a 5*. Let us play with characters we actually like.
• alliance wars are too demanding for little rewards (agree with everyone else)
• alliance quest should have 30 min energy timers not one hour. It sucks that you cannot even get 8 hours of sleep and feel like you don’t need to get on the game for AQ if you do higher maps.
• harder content with better rewards (act 7, abyss 100%) just seems to be for whales
Just my 2 cents.
Nodes like backblast, icarus are great. I think nodes like no retreat, tunnel vision are hard enough on it own and should stay that way if you're going to have them.
So here's another problem with your progression and the monster of a game you've built. Kudos to you btw, but that's the problem. It's too big and you're doing very little to make it smaller. Say I got a prestige of 9500, clear your uncollected since I was 3500, complete all of your variants, and then reach the point where I am at. Not enough viable champions to get me through a gate. Not a single champion 5* champion who inflicts a poison. Then what am I supposed to use my energy on? How am I supposed to get motivated to play the game, when my chances are limited to get counters and then don't get them time and time again.
And lets make it clear here, I have a lot of counters. I couldn't make it this far without the Over Powered roster I have. I admit that. But basic gates, and niche counters have got to go. NERF ACT 6. Next update. Just do it. Make it fun and compensate the troubles we went/are going through.
Not sure why they want to keep those a big secret....

The only way to get a decent amount is by spending.
I'd bet you my Aegon that post wouldn't happen and have community agreement.
Would we have been heard if it wasn’t for seatins video ?
It seems like a lot of this feedback has been swirling around for a while, but why did it take a whale Spender with lots of followers to be heard?
I wish there was better feedback loops.
Because now if Seatin does quit the game, how could we hope for feedback to be heard if he’s gone?
This is an important F2P balance thing. Every thing you sell offers paying customers an advantage over people who spend less or are free to play. You have to offer them an advantage or they won't spend. But if you offer them too much of an advantage everyone else will say the game goes too far into pay to win territory and you'll lose players, both large numbers of lower spenders that collectively spend a lot, and free to play players that are your future spenders. This is problematic.
Whatever price you set for anything, *someone* will buy it. The lower the price, the more people who will. The higher, the fewer. But the lower the price, the more value you offer, the more you'll alienate everyone else who doesn't buy, and the more pressure you'll put on people to spend to keep up. That's the balance you have to strike.
Everyone who says the offer sucks and they won't buy it are making the correct decision that Kabam wants you to make. Implicitly, you're saying the offer is one you can pass up on, because you are passing up on it. And that subtly sends the message to you and everyone else that the offers are no big deal; that you can ignore them if you want. And that's a very important message to send. It is a small price to pay for everyone to think you don't know what you're doing when you set prices, when you know exactly what you're doing and want people to think your offers can be ignored. The whales spend, everyone else thinks the whales aren't getting all that much for their spending (whatever they might claim), and everyone goes on with their lives.
The alternative is everyone thinks all the offers are great, they all have great value, and omg we can't afford to let any of them go by because anyone who doesn't spend is a chump who is missing out on these wonderful A+ offers. Which is actually very destructive to the game in the long run.
