Act 7 chapter 1 is a complete fail

GOTG

Dear Kabam,

I beat your newest permanent content several days ago, and already forgot almost everything about it. The only thing I remember is I ranked 3 Ghost which did not give me the joy I want. She is unnecessary.

You are in a downfall, if you can realize that. Your content was once great. Like the Collector 5.2.6, I still remember the fight as it has just happened yesterday, my hand was shaking throughout. Or The Champion 6.2.6. I am a humble man, so I did not show proud in my previous alliance when two third of them could not beat him for months. But I was proud. You created a great fight, players need skill to make it done. Right now you do not need anything to make anything done. Like you eat breakfast on a table that you mom serve it. I feel emptiness.

After Abyss, I went through many months without great joy. From the game of course. Variant 5 was easy. Act 7 was easy. Cavalier difficutly is easy. This month I went through it without spending anything. No item, no thought, just did it as a routine.

Ok so many gave you praise, which I do understand somehow, but I personally think you have done a bad thing for the game. And for me as well. I love to play hard fights. I am not the best player in the world but I love it. You make a game that there is nothing memorable about it, so players can leave without regret.

You’re judging act 7 on 1/4 of it...
4.1, 5.1, 6.1 were all underwhelming. 5.2 introduced the collector and 6.2 introduced the champion fights you praise so highly. Yet we aren’t in 7.2 yet, but you were looking for a different rotation?

Get over it.

If you don’t like the way the game is in act 7, then leave. A lot of the playerbase liked it. Kabam can’t cater to everyone, but they can cater to the majority.

I’m haven’t try book 2 yet because I’m fouce one abyss. So I’m can’t said much cavalier EQ isn’t esay for one there just became cavalier so what you real is saying you hav a large roster with make it esay for you. And if u mis the challenge use 3 star in cavalier EQ to make you own. I’m wil said this it nice appallingly all is esay for them wait for somtimg like abyss. Kind of constes

First, I think it’s important to clarify how difficult Kabam’s job is in making content right now. If they make it less intense, less punishing, and allow for more diverse roster choices, they get called out for making things too easy. On the other hand, if they do any of those things, they get blasted by the rest of the community for sucking all the fun out of the game and favoring pay-to-win tactics. That’s a rough tightrope to try and walk, and since the most recent uproar in the community was over the extreme difficulty of act 6, it’s only natural that they would, at least initially, swing hard the other way.

Secondly, I’m not sure that your first example of “great content” holds up very well. In fact, I’d argue that the collector fight is pretty poorly designed. The fight isn’t meant to be soloed, and you’re not meant to be able to dodge his special attacks. It’s less about skill, and more about burning through revives until he’s down. Of course, a point could be made that there’s a place for those kinds of fights in the game: I still felt a rush when I got him down, largely because of how much I had to invest in order to get it done.

But the reality is, those are the kinds of fights that the overwhelming majority of the community opposes as of late. Unless that mindset changes, I think that content like act 7 will continue to be the norm.

For every endgame content you have created by now, there are alway some hard fights on it. In Act 6 chapter 1 it is no retreat map, Ultron and Crossbone, in chapter 2 there are many which is great, chapter 3 was a downfall, chapter 4 Grandmaster.

I can not point out any great fight in Act 7 Chapter 1 which is ridiculous. Which fight in this chapter was great? Which fight force players to think about it, to remember it and feel proud about it? There is none. Zero.

I advice you to make at least one very hard fight in every chapter to seperate completion and exploration. Is it too hard for you to do?

Seems to be a thinly veiled brag post where you’re actually saying that this is too easy for you and that you think you’re actually better than the rest of the player base.

This new level of design for book 2 after taking into account various levels of feedback is very refreshing in fact and I hope to see a similar approach applied to future chapters.

I am sorry you cannot feel “great joy” anymore. If your great joy comes from annoying fights that are not fun, pick a different game.
Also, I do not feel proud from completing any of your examples. I just look back and think “oh, I spent 500 units on that terrible fight.”

To say you don’t have to think about a fight before you go into it is false, you need to think about it when picking your team at the very least.

Don't blame Kabam, blame the community. They are the ones that made Kabam nerf act 6 and make book 2 the way it is.

What Kabam is employing here is standard RPG game design where ultra tough fights are reserved for side quests or side content aka Secret Bosses. The main story quests should still provide a certain level of challenge but still be tuned in a manner that would not be overly difficult for a competent player to overcome. This way it allows players to still progress at an acceptable pace, especially free to play ones while still being able to enjoy new story content. THIS IS THE WAY.

All I’m going to say in response to this is do you see how entitled you sound. The only reason you’re complaining is because you have such a large roster. That’s not kabam’s fault. The game will catch up to you. I suggest you go and start a second account. I wouldn’t be surprised if when you do you’ll come back on the forums and complain about how hard some of the content in the game is.

Realm_Of_Rah

These posts are silly, even with an advanced roster the nodes require you to be paying attention to what's happening and make the most out of the aspect of the fight from which you can benefit from. A diversified roster is still required to get past the lanes without spending mindlessly and a lot of the lanes & bosses required a counter so that you won't take fun and interactive damage or start the fight over (Gwenperion, Electro Luke, Rhino, Venom, Aarkus). The Black Widow and Weapon X fights, the former in particular was a fight that rewarded you greatly for playing skillfully with unique node combination that IIRC hasn't ever been introduced.

This post is a complete fail and quite honestly just a load of sh*t.

Lol what? Do you really suggest blaming people for having no desire to play content they couldn't and didn't want to manage? Fights like 6.2 sinister were huge road blocks for people who didn't have 3-4 selected champs. Combined with 4* being not allowed not surprising people didn't play it. Kabam saw it and made content more inclusive. If you only want higher hp/attack values on opponents, just don't bring your r3 6*s, try using r2 5*s

There should be an easy path for completion (for the majority) and a difficult but doable path for a satisfying exploration. Exploration should be satisfyingly challenging. It should make you think of a plan before trying it and should be skill-based. Exploring it should make you feeeeel good and it must challenge even those with the best roster. But yea, not BS like the Collector. More like The Champion.

That's not what I said. From OP's point of view, he hates the new content because it's not enjoyable and challenging like 6.2.6 as that's what he said. Kabam would have left things the way they were in Act 6 and Book 2 would have been much harder. So if OP wants to be mad at someone, be mad at the ones that pushed for the Act 6 changes that ultimately led to Book 2 being easier than planned.

I'm fine with Book 2 and thing it's much more fun than Act 6. I think it does cause you think out side the box to look for champs that really help complete the content. All i'm saying in OP's point of view, he should direct his sadness, anger and emptiness at the community.

Looks ok to me. I mean im not on act 7, but I saw lags and he was perfectly fine
