AQ Timeout

Mellie_Mel

Is no one talking about this yet? Or are the post getting deleted too quick?

MOD EDIT: This has been responded to in this thread, and also in this announcement post here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/198788/alliance-quest-timeout-penalty-accidental-change

Talking about what? Your post doesn't mention anything. The title is just AQ timeout...pretty vague!

Mellie_Mel

I'm hearing lot's of complaints of timing out in AQ is resulting in KO, even when using champs that have plenty of health or champs like Corvus that aren't supposed to die. It happened to me personally and now we are investigating the situation.

Same here. It’s happened to me and others in my alliance a few times today.

@Kabam Miike @Kabam Zibiit @Kabam Lyra @Kabam Porthos Any update on this? Our guys have been using lots of revives and potions trying to navigate the unknown. I want to save them from using stuff or now until we hear an official answer!

Yes, this is happening. @Kabam Miike please get this fixed. Champs are gettin KO’ed from timeouts

To clarify, a timeout is leaving your champ KOed instead of just taking half your remaining health. (This is what I was just told by someone in my ally who had it happen on map6 with his corvus)

It was fine yesterday, so whatever change was made at the start of this AQ. Can confirm it’s happening to several people in our alliance.

Please tell me any other time they have silently nerfed anything? When something worked 1 day and not the next without explanation its always been a bug.

Ya always just a "bug" with kabam. Never a nerf at important time in game like AQ or the start of aw season

Yeah you're probably right. Bugs are always planned out and never happen at random times. Couldn't be a bug at all.

Mellie_Mel

I just want to know if it is a confirmed bug, what the timeline is to get it fixed, and what compensation they are prepared to offer. And before ya'll "people are always begging for compensations peeps" start chirping, I have not used a single item in the last 4-5 AQs. I'm 5 deep today. It IS costing people items/loyalty/Units.

Menkent

I posted about it in the bugs forum since this isn't really the place to get a response.

Thanks! I looked for stuff there first but didn't see anything. Thought maybe they were getting deleted (wouldn't be the first time stuff got buried/hidden). I'll comment there too

Jmurph

Same happening to me. Happened 2x. Very low on revives also since kabam hasn’t put L1 revives in the loyalty store since April 25th. And on day 4 of aq. Not a good time to have a bug.

Been playing this game since the beginning seen several things over the years that start out as bugs that later became real. Back in the day there was key champs that every AQ cycle wouldn't function correctly and later they was changed to always perform the way there "bugs" had them performing. Same goes with champs like domino who had a bug that her description didn't match her performance so instead of fixing her to make her correct they just changed her description alot of grey area with this company

If this sticks...I'm out! Instant. No questions asked. I'll never spend another dollar on this game trying to keep up with prestige or clear content or whatever.

I had two thoughts immediately. First one was if they nerfed the CG Timeout I am quitting 100% no questions asked. Second was if it was a bug then we need to be compensated for it. I burnt 2 revives before I figured out that it was a bug or something.

So this happened to me today as well. I went in to hit up the Map7 Omega Red Tier 1 mini boss. Smacked OR around some and timed out with 1 charge left. Figured I would go back in and kill him off but Corvus was KO’d to my surprise! Unfortunately I didn’t record but I got my AQ BG chat below to show it. I moved on thinking it was random but sounds more widespread so here I am with all y’all...

Jesus you all are over reacting.

You must play map 3. Let the big kids talk, please!

If you are not, it is because you have no idea what has happened

Well I don't use the timeout method and I play both map 6 and 7 and I use corvus as my primary attacker.

I'm saying you are over reacting by calling it a silent nerf and saying Kabam is doing it on purpose to get more money blah, blah, blah. Report it, submit a support ticket but stop acting like they are changing the game in the middle of an AQ cycle which wouldn't happen.
