Cyber Weekend Sales Feedback [Merged Threads]

At least there’s no real temptation to gamble my life away!

Sure, it's disappointing and many people had got their hopes up but, that's life, you don't always get what you want.

Disappointment is a good life lesson, you will have other disappointments. Hopefully, you can manage it better next time.

Ridiculous. I’m a middle aged American man. I’m supposed to be a source of disappointment, not experiencing it myself.

I was saving money literally for a year to spend today. It would be my first time spending money in MCoC.

Great deception, but at least got to save it.
Won't be spending a dollar or an Unit today.

I mean, I get it. I was wrong too. I thought they would have included some kind of T5CC component for Cav and more for TB. I can admit that. That was my guess. It doesn't mean I'm entitled to what I thought they would do.
July 4 2020 was better than CW 2019, which was better than July 4 2019, which was better than Cyber Monday 2018...

So don’t be confused why people are pissed that 1) Kabam created a stupid progression path to TB and then 2) toned down the deals rather than improved them from July, which is clearly what they had been doing from offer to offer, year to year.

This is a giant middle finger to the players. You can suck up all you want. Doesn’t change a thing.

Actually, you're comparing without complete information. The Deals ARE better. The ceiling has changed. Thronebreaker didn't exist before. Cavalier did. So you have to compare based on the top-most.
As for the progression path, something had to be the deciding factor. Not something that was immediately accessible by everyone. In that respect, it's a successful one. It's like saying make another level, but give it to everyone. What's the point?

@Kabam Miike basically it is unfair a player who reached 6.4 has same treatment than who is still in 6.1. Kabam knows it. Kabam had to value it. Moreover whats happened today shows that was a mistake to provide with a new tile in terms of having or not a 6s r3. It had to be as usual, reaching 6.4. Or they could wait and giving it after 7.1. As always has been. And this cyber could be like the 4th July one. Everybody happy, including Kabam. I won't spend even 5 euro. I'm sorry and disappointed.

I spat my tea out when I saw the difference between Throne breaker and cav. Needless to say Kabam, I saved a ton of money and can now quite happily trawl the world wide web looking for genuine black friday/cyber Monday deals. I can't thank you enough. My wife also sends her regards as she might get that new tumble dryer after all.👌.

I hope to see an additional offer where I can get a T5CC selector. This offer can help a lot of Cavaliers become Thronebrakers.

The future is now kabam. If you want to save yourselves from the disaster this cyber weekend is you will adjust deals now.

They are not better. Don’t be delusional. I didn’t expect to get close to what a thronebreaker got in their offers, what I did expect was atleast 10-20% of a T5cc from my 5k units.
Never mind though, act 6 compensation and my saved units will be more than enough for a pass of 7.1 and 100% variant 6 over the holidays I think. Unless of course they lock 7.1 behind thronebreaker as well.

Really. I can't believe there isn't even a T5CC selector today... Unbelievable.

Where did we hear about act6 comp? Did they give an update?

You apparently ignored the part that I mentioned about the ceiling.
As for what you expect, I can't speak for that. Expectations usually lead to disappointment.

So glad I didn’t get caught up in the frenzy. I was going to contemplate buying based on the deals, and thankfully don’t have to now. Actually being sincere. I saved money (silver lining in the cloud) and more money available now for gifts in general. Whether it be for the gifting event or in the real world.

KingCap512

By the time the “Future offers” come around they won’t do close players any good we should finally be thronebreakers without your garbage deals I was prepared to buy every offer this weekend check my history I spend loads of money on this game but these garbage offers don’t help me progress I need T5CC and lots of it keep your “Future Offers” and shove them up there

The value of units has even gone WAYY down today. Brian Grant said it best. In his exact words...

I’ve never seen him that sad. I guess this is his vocation, as it were, and hits him harder. It’s just my goofy hobby. But that was a bit heart-rending. And let’s be clear, here, there are a BUNCH of kabam employees that are pissed on his behalf right now. I imagine the design team is on the outs with marketing.

You can't possibly know how many Kabam folks are mad at other Kabam folks, or even if they are mad at all.
I bet they aren't even mad or pissed at each other on anyone's behalf.
At most, they might disagree with the "deals", but that is it.

Everyone that isn't a whale and that actually plays the game is really disappointed in the unit "deals", unless you are a whale that doesn't really care, and just buys everything no matter what.

I knew that Kabam was going to screw Cavalier players this Cyber Weekend. Even more so, I figured that the item they'd screw Cavalier level on is the T5CC selectors. Why else would they have rushed this progression level with the standard of having a rank 3 6-star?

Lorddrew

I am bummed out, after playing for months to push for TB, save up units and cash for what seems to be the last bit. I see allot of players with the same problem, did abyss and completion to get the title but avail. I feel sorry for those who have exploration of act 6, they will have it harder. @ Kabam give those who dont need the t5CC more T5CC
.I'm done, this game wasn't feeling rewarding for a while now. This made the top tier players even higher.

It feels like the honoust players keep getting punished and need to work harder for scraps in every part of the game.

#F2PMatters.

We know that whales/casual spending players keep the game running... but we're players too

I'd pass on the unit deals and wait for the GIFTING EVENT that you brought back to life. GG

TypicalGamer

Not only are the cash offers for cavalier underwhelming, the unit offers are awful for F2P players. Disappointment would be an understatement. Why on earth would cavalier players want t4bc as part of the 1000 unit deal? I already have 10 in overflow.

Bugmat78

If the whales don't have anyone to compete with what's the point? First time I've seen a retailer purposely shoot themselves in the foot during the holiday season. Very strange behavior!

Forget the Money deals...

Fourth of July - 1K units got you 2500 6* shards and 5% of T5CC.
Black Friday - 1K units gets you 0 6* shards and 0% of a T5CC

Fourth of July - 4K units got you 10,000 6* shards and 10% of a T5CC
Black Friday - 4K units gets you 3,000 6* shards and 0% of a T5CC

Fourth of July - 10K units got you 20,000 6* shards, 40% of a T5CC, and a 6* R1 to R2 Crystal.
Black Friday - 10K units got you 20,000 6* shards, 0% of a T5CC, and a 5* R4 to R5 Crystal.

You got 55% worth of T5CC crystals in July. Today, you get NOTHING. NOTHING to get you closer to the title they want to give actual deals to.

Do not buy.

You just made me madder at them.

It's part of the first Offer only. Which you still use them to Rank Champs.

Just wondering who will be blamed for this hot mess in the staff meeting ??

The overoptimistic sales projecting marketing guy or the deals reviewing finalizer ?

Buggster32

I typically drop decent amount on deals and this is shameful. Disgusting! No full basic t5c cats, no t5c selector. One 10% t5c crystal in Odin bundle is a joke. Got my hopes up. I typically don’t come on here and complain but this is embarrassing. Us cavalier players busted our butts for how long and this is what we get. Thanks kabam. Sure nothing will change. Ive seen other games give amazing deals for this weekend. But this is a joke

Skywalker77

How did I know this would come? Lol.
@GroundedWisdom genuinely interested to hear what you think but correct me if I'm wrong.. you're not cav yet?
I am.
The Deals are pretty bomb considering what you get for what you spend. Not sure why people are comparing them to July 4th. Two different ball games. What I think the real issue is, is that people expected them to get them to Thronebreaker, and that was an assumption.
Has to be a troll post. I can't even think you're being serious.
What Cavalier player who's at 6.3+ needs T4b from a unit deal? Please check the deals first. Read them clearly and then come back.
Let's look at this logically. They come out with a new bar to hit which separates Players based on progress. You have the biggest sale of the year coming up where loads of people spend, and the most rare Resource in the game is needed. Do you think they're going to add it so that many people can hit it all at once? Is it even a bar anymore?
Man this isn't even half the offers that Cavs had before. They didn't have to add it all, but to add nothing? There is literally no way for a F2P Cav player to get to Thronebreaker if they didn't have the RNG luck. So many folks grinded out 15k units for this utter waste deals?
I don't even believe that someone is actually supporting the Cav deals.
Supporting? I'm not supporting anything. I'm looking at it for what it is. What you get for what you spend. I'm not comparing it to what TBs get, or what anyone got last year, or 4th of July, or anything like that. I'm seeing it for what it is.
Welp, hate to break it to you, but 0% of a T5CC is worth $0. And that's what Cav players are gonna spend.
Not really. I'm Cav. I spent.

They found one sucker then.

Cav offers blow

Spartan117

And still no comments form kabam looks like they are as shameless and as they come all they won't is just money nothing else it is making me think about quitting the game permanently

The fact that you need to buy an offer that isn’t worth it to unlock the next deal is bs. Compare this with the 4th of July deals earlier this year, this is awful. And I’ve already mentioned that I have over 10 overflowing T4BC so I would have already ranked up champs if I wanted to.
