In short, I feel my decision was hastily made. In all fairness I did somewhat enjoy the new "challenges" but I was and still am much against new content being pushed out in lieu of the number of things that needed repair for several months in some cases. IMO, some of those very issues made the challenges lose more credibilty amd excitment than they could have gained. All in all, back to "square one" on what my next decision should be. Truly disheartening because I without a doubt had such a passion for playing MCOC once not too long ago.
What more needs to be said?
I'm seeing tons of 100% LOL accounts being sold for meesly sum of 650 dollars starting to account with 5 star r4 iceman voodoo sl etc being sold for about 1500.
All if not most top 300 alliances have ghosts in their alliances.
I used to be a huge player in this game doing every arena and event because it was fun now it plain sucks. I've stopped doing arena unless its a champ I like or want. I only play like 30 mins or less daily compared to the 6 hrs and more before when this game was fun. Opening crystals was like opening christmas presents and now even that sucks. Last 3 4 star crystals was kamala khan only.
I have the 5 star tech awakening gem 40+ sig stones 7 t4c tech as well but no 5 star sl even after opening 25 or so 5 star crystals. Kabam literally ruined this game for me.
I’ve spent money on this game, and I’d wish that money would be used to better this game.
I'm with you, the game is no longer fun as you are fighting the gameplay and not the opponent. I'm very close to walking away from the game too. Harder content like lol, act 5 and such isn't even an option for me as it is currently unplayable.
It used to actually be fun. It used to be challenging. It used to be a game. At this point, it is more like a slot machine which doesn't function as advertised, anyways. The fight mechanics are always broken, and have been since they added in the whole challenger rating and flat rates garbage in version 12. Before version 12, they had a product gaining momentum at an incredible rate, because it was FUN. People loved the gameplay, and striving for those god tier champions. Kabam saw this, and nerfed all the work in game we had done previously, making everything we'd accomplished in a game we loved... worthless. The day that update came out, the fun was sapped from this game. Bugs have been ignored by the game team, instead of fixed, and it is clear it is because these bugs are revenue generators. The evidence for that fact is all over the forums in that any actual bug which may benefit players, is immediately fixed, punished, reverted, or what have you.
Kabam didn't have to send out compensation a lot before, because the game ran fine. When they gave compensation, you actually felt compensated for the time, and especially UNITS/MONEY, that you spent, and the compensation fit the error on their side. Since update 12, however (and slightly before), there has been no compensation for issues that cost players a LOT. Conspiracy theory is against ToS, but there is cold hard EVIDENCE on these forums, and the archived old forums, showing kabams bug fixing history.
Where I once loved this game, I find only mistrust in Kabam's shady business practices that have developed faster than the bug fixes this game sorely needs.
There's a lot more frustration than excitement now. There's no urgency in doing anything as you know you're more likely than not to be affected by a bug and it will cost you something. People are just getting frustrated and losing interest, getting kod by AI that interrupts combos or your champ ignoring your input.
Then there is the release of 6* champs and the feeling that content is just going be nothing more than adding more and more attack and health to opponents instead of coming up with a new model to make things interesting. All the champs we have on our wish list now are soon to be obsolete and when we voice our concerns about the future of the game we get a finger in the face and ignored. The **** is being layed down too thick. How long have we been waiting for answers about the detect and pure skill masteries ? We never get straight answers about anything, just the usual "I'll bring it up to the team," and then silence as if that is all the info we need. It's just disheartening that we are so unappreciated and our feedback is ignored.
I don't see myself staying around much longer. The game I enjoyed playing is dead, replaced by something that's as bloated and bugged as Windows XP, and turned into something that many don't want.
Loved the game and just wish it played properly.
Kabam I’m not a whale but I don’t object to spending on a game. I don’t mind a bit of cash for some t4cs, shards, all sorts of the offers I’ll buy, or I would have bought.
What I don’t like, is having to pay for revives to get through AW and AQ because of all of the BUGS! The feeling of choosing between being the one to let your alliance friends down or just swiping my credit card is not one I wish to have again. Every time it feels like blackmail.
If I hear you have sorted them out I’ll be back in a shot but I don’t think you care.
I am not a great player, but I think I am good enough to finish some of the tougher event quests if I spend some resources. The problem is I use up my resources too fast to compensate for the bugs. My champs are not tough enough to take the punishment I get when my blocks don't happen fast enough or when my champ stops moving. If I can't finish the events, I can't get what I need to move to the next level. It feels futile a lot of the time. What is the fun of constant grinding to get almost nowhere? I can't believe anyone spend money on this game.
