Alliance Tickets [Merged Threads]

Carmel1

my alliance run one bg of map7 and two bgs of map6.
until now we could've split the donations which between all 30 members. that was the least map6's guys could do to help the map7's guys as everyone get the same rewards.
so now with the ticket system, map7 guys need to pay more???
thank you for making things worst.

i don't buy it!! maybe you should find a solution for this first

Mcord11758

Yeah this is just another terrible idea/change that only hurts players

Rozay613

Also, why would we only get tickets for the last 5 months of donations? Our treasury has way more value than that. How is that a fair resolution? We run map 5 now but have a huge surplus from when we did map 6......

ShrimpR

totally agree, they should at leaset make the tickets with same price in Alliance

I think it's **** that we are getting these tickets for maps we have never run. We are a map 5 alliance only and now everything our treasury had is gone and will be given useless tickets. At least splitting the treasury gold between 30 woulda given us approx. 400k gold each.

Xygon

I totally get why this is happening. However, our group gives map 7 runners a cheaper dues rate to offset the item costs. Now, the whole team benefits, and they pay more in tickets and items. There needs to be a solution ASAP to deal with this, while still addressing the main reason you're doing this (mercs, thanks for being up front and honest that it's being addressed for that reason).

Why can’t the current treasury be distributed between the alliance members that are part of the alliance on 22nd May And those members decide how they want to spend those resources for alliance quests? This would be the fairest resolution to this change response please @Kabam Miike i guess I’m not the only person thinking this.

The_Savage_Ancient

Poor decision, we have loads of treasury and we can adjust between members since we run different maps. Please don't screw things up on short notice. This is another one of those bad decisions without any heads up.

Championcritic

Lets face it, its going to be extremely difficult to please everyone in this regard because there is such a huge variety in the AQ map strategy of thousands of alliances.

Xygon

Because those who merc'd in their dues get it back. It's pretty well thought out, though has some consequences and a whole lot of data gathering.

I am in the same boat as you, where my alliance never has and likely never will do map 6 and 7 on a regular basis.

This is my opinion.





How does having increasing cost give Summoners choice? This is more forcing us in a certain direction rather than giving us a choice. Can someone elaborate on this?

Not a good idea. Our alliances works amazingly well. We have the option to challenge our most skilled players with more difficult maps and the option to challenge our less skilled in lower level maps with shared rewards and a ahared cost. Nobody complains and all

This will do nothing but cause drama amoung members having to pay and others not.

As an alliance leader I have always hated the "donations" so am happy to see it go and I love the idea of a choice in resource to the individual player.

This however is not the solution!

Why not just make it all loyalty based. Each map cost nothing but loyalty. Then allow for a conversion for loyalty from chips, units, and gold. Have alliance events also pay loyalty straight to the treasury for high peaks.

While you are at it an AQ enlistment system would help more than you know!

My alliance, like many, only runs map 5, with no interest in maps 6 or 7. These tickets will do us zero good. Wouldn't it be better to refund the treasury balance out evenly as gold, loyalty, and battlechips among alliance members and let us choose whether to purchase tickets or not?

gone_again

I agree 1mcoc, it took a lot of peoples time to get the amounts paid into treasury, and it shouldn't just be the last 5 months, my alliance doesn't run maps 6 or 7 so what are we supposed to do with useless tickets, at least the split of resources between us would have helped us. I think this will cause a LOT of unhappy members. It's just theft under a different name. Disgusting.

Yeah, how hard is it to split the ressource between the 30 current member of the alliance?

We are a map 5 AQ alliance. Why would we care about getting map 6-7 ticket?

Whiskey_Poet

BTW, good call on the free map 5, but big fail on the refunding as tickets.

Not sure where to post this, but Alliance Tickets for AQ doesn’t seem fair while you have 1 group of 10 running map 6 and the other 2 groups running Map 5. Those 10 are being singled out, while the other 20 basically get a free ride. Our alliance has always split donations equally , as we all receive the same rewards. This is a little off balance. I understand there is a lot of BS going on in map 7, however those of us still on map 6 are paying the price of the cheaters in higher maps. Yes I know we have a lot of great alliances in higher maps, that does it honestly. This will hurt a lot of alliances unfortunately. And probably cause alliances to split up. I think this needs to be given more thought to the alliances running map 5 & map 6 combined.

StevieManWonder

Just donated 500K gold to the treasury yesterday to cover my donations for the next few months. My alliance runs map 5 only. So I basically just got screwed out of 500K gold

GroundedWisdom

It's not like we ever get Donations back anyway. Even when the Ally closes, it stays there.

TP33

So in the roadmap that the CCP has received it says that alliance tickets are coming. There are some great reasons but what is ‘resource loading’ never heard of it in the past, what is this?

TheTalents

My alliance has 58 million in gold. When it comes to high tier 5 and 6 star rank ups a little over a million gold each is not that much unfortunately.

Remeli

Same boat as you here. Very poorly thought out change from Kabam again.

Split the treasury in 30 between player in the alliance when the change go live. Pretty easy and obvious solution...

Knorr7227

Map 5 players should get a refund of donations, not tickets

Kabam Miike

I get where you're coming from, but when you donate to the Treasury, those resources become solely to open Alliance Quest Maps, and that's what Alliance Tickets.

It would be the same thing that happened if Map 5 became free without the new ticket system.

They are refunding your donations in tickets if you only do map 5 you have no need for tickets....

Our alliance runs 1 group of map 6 and 2 groups of map 5. Those 10 in map 6 will now be penalized by having to pay while the other 20 basically get a free ride. We have always split our donations equally, as we all receive the same rewards. This is going to cause alliance to split up unfortunately. You need to rethink what you are fixing to do to alliances like ours. It’s going to chase alliances away. This is not a good solution.

Mr_Chris

I actually love that I can choose to use excess gold to pay for entry to map 7. I’m a supporter of this move for a variety of reasons.
