here he was judged for his ability as per how he worked in the players hands. regardless of whether you are a youtuber or not.
the issue is not that they changed him. the issue is that they did it without telling anyone, deleting two threads that raised the issue, and then seek to respond
it's not how you read it as. it was vague in the description, players saw him acting a certain way and decided that's how it should be since it does not explicitly contradict the kit
1. The wording of the Signature ability is wrong IMO, it reads as if 'is removed if struck by Special Attack 3' it would have saved so much time to this situation if when they put him in July, with it read something like 'is removed if struck by or triggered by the lose of all health in a Special Attack 3' . Something that was clearer on its intent to not be a complete "get out of jail free card" as stated in the Spotlight.
2. On inspection on the August release notes i cannot see mentioned fixed an issue with Hercules immortality......etc . I have heard some rumour of kabam notifying people on it being a bug and would be changed. But im not finding anything concrete.
Im trying to get some idea from Kabam as to what went wrong here with Communication on the matter of this champ.
I agree with Rich in that it's probably not worded correctly honestly.
The bottom line either way is you can't tank an L3 with something that's canceled by an L3.
Know how I know that? Players of all levels fought Hercules every day for an entire month. Thousands of players inevitably tried to knock out Hercules with an SP3 only to see him survive and turn immortal at the end of the SP3.
... Not a single thread here complaining about "HERCULES IS BUGGED! I USED AN SP3 AND HE SURVIVED EVEN THOUGH THE SIG ABILITY SAYS THE SP3 SHOULD REMOVE HIS IMMORTALITY"
That to me is what makes it very clear that we are operating in gray land.
So - please save your passive aggression on the ability being clear... it is NOT clear, and it would just be good for Kabam to acknowledge the mis-step here. Not asking for items, not asking for compensation - asking for a genuine admission of fault and a way to fix this going forward.
I refer to the month of fighting Hercules because I genuinely DO think it means something - specifically, it means that his kit is ambiguous and I'd like Kabam to acknowledge that and fix these issues going forward. Many players lost units, items, and their temper fighting Hercules every single day, failing to knock him out with an SP3.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that when this player base feels cheated, they post about it on the forums. However, there wasn't a single post complaining that Herc's immortality was bugged, in a way that was harming the player base. That tells me AT A MINIMUM that there was enough ambiguity in his kit that players just shrugged and said "Oh well - I guess that means his immortality can kick in for the first time after an SP3".
Not picking my mic back up - thanks though.
The number of times I've seen people jump on a bugged Champ and blame Kabam is not something I'd care to count. Could there be better communication? Always. That's something that's a growing process. However, communication goes both ways, and people scarcely mention something they're unsure of which they benefit from. They just wait for Kabam to sort it out after they jump. It's entirely possible to come here and verify before they invest all their resources into it.
Holding them accountable is one thing. Taking responsibility is another. It's the difference between saying, "I misunderstood.", and "Kabam made me misunderstand.".
When receiving damage that would knock out Hulk when gamma radiation is at or above 15%... gain an immortality passive, preventing death and becoming unblockable...
The key is both champs are worded as "receiving damage that would result in a knockout", even if its a SP3 that causes the intial knockout, immortality should kick in both cases. So either the description of Hercules needs to be modified and compensation delivered accordingly for such a change or otherwise its functionality should be the same as how Immortal hulk's immortaility triggers when caused by a knockout.
Epic response. An entire month fighting a bugged boss that should have fallen with my first Sp3.
Kinda overly convenient that the bug wasn't removed when Kabam were the beneficiary.
This really has been the summer of pain. More so than I could have imagined
