Questions about Russia/Belarus

While I definitely don’t want to get into a debate about the politics about what’s going on between Ukraine and Russia, I have some concerns. While I understand that Kabam might not have had much choice in doing this, since Canada has joined in sanctions against Russia, what does this mean for people who have alliance members in Russia or Belarus if Kabam decides to pull the game from those markets? Again, I don’t want a political discussion about the invasion by Russia but I am curious as to what Kabam will do next if the invasion continues.

Isn’t this because of the extreme volatility of the currency?

And they can still play, just not purchase.

This might also be because international bank transfers between Russia/Belarus and the West is heavily impacted by the sanctions. Kabam has no guarantee in-game purchases will come through.

Never say never, but I don't think Kabam will disable the game in those countries. The biggest impact will be overall alliance performance. Things like gifting event will be hard without units to buy.

[sic] I read this as an indirect request about possible in game compensation for loss of alliance members due to any action taken by Kabam.

This is not a matter to discuss here, and we will not let our Forums about Marvel Contest of Champions become host to any sort of political discussions. I've had to delete a great number of posts in this thread. We have made our reasoning and intentions clear, and if we feel that we want to take further actions, we will. We will not be open to discussion on the matter.
