Please postpone aw season

Cpt_Awesomeo55

Please postpone aw season until the vfx issues are corrected. Difficulty is significantly increased without the visual cues commonly used. It’s unfair to put out a competitive game mode with the current state of the game.

ExHavok

I agree with that, some defenders may cause death because of this issues such as G99, Invisible Woman, Stryfe, Kitty.

Absolutely agree. Almost every champion is bugged right now. Dealing with this in a competitive game mode like War is going to cause so much chaos.

FiiNCH

Agreed - I think the sensible option would be to postopone it until a fix is in place

Ironside47

One more agree 😊

Totally agree!
We run 1 bg during off season for loyalty, got smoked by guilly 99 last round. Even if it’s the same for everyone it’s total bs right now and aw should definetly be put on hold.

Without the visual cues, might as well play the game in the dark

You mean the visual cues like the icons that display under their health bars when they are phased?

Usually I’d disagree when I see a “Postpone AW” thread, but this is one I fully agree with. VFX are important indicators, and while I don’t mind the bugs being in EQ SQ and Story content where I can back out and restart, the players don’t have that luxury during war or AQ for that matter.

Magrailothos

One more agree from me.

Kraven's traps? Knull's Corruption? Various champs invisibility or Miss mechanics?

Sounds like a lot of pain for attackers (and a sudden drop in Defender Diversity in favour of such champs, who are suddenly disproportionately difficult...)

Treo

Absolutly agree … and this sudden glitch of today f-ing completely over island giving me confidence it’s gonna be a good season…. If this happens in season the same way as today that’s a complete loss of the path for me … nothing more I can do … losing Odin pre fight is making the path impossible to one shot for me

VFX issue seems like it's been resolved

I just tried dueling kraven...

I saw the traps, but every time I pushed him in... it didn't work.

Then when the duel was over... game hung (that bug is back).

Did a game restart... redid the duel... Now everything works.

I suggest restarting game to get things flushed / working

Hey all,

This issue should now be resolved! Thank you all for your patience as we worked to address this issue. We'll be monitoring the situation and looking at how it affected Summoners during the duration of the Bug.

Check how many resources I spent on 8.1 boss trying to figure out what was going on. That would be a great starting point. 👍

Well must admit it's nice to se ghost phase again but as we wait on our units n revives spent back a lot of us don't touch story while season is underway and use off-season for it. So a delay till we get our stuff back so we can get it done. & stuff back would still be greatly appreciated 🤠👍

When looking at "how it affected summoners" please look beyond the material cost. Though revives and units got burned doing certain content, all of the other normal stuff (aq, eq, sq, bg, etc) was also still being completed as normal, but with a massive drop in enjoyment. This last week was very much a chore rather than a fun time with a game we like. Remember that we're just people who like your product at its best, and not just a bunch of rubes who are obligated to log in every few hours.

How do you quantify enjoyment?

I wasn't talking to you.

I'm simply pointing out that enjoyment isn't something they can measure and put out in a generic sense. There are certainly gestures they can make for our trouble, but enjoyment lost isn't really a metric that's backed up by data.

Attack tactics is still not working in AW

Blah blah blah blah. Thanks for the amazing insights. I was speaking to my own experience and only on my own behalf. I understand that there's not a way to measure it in pots and units. But they are human beings at the end of the day and can figure out what steps to take outside of raw data. They certainly have plenty of experience with this kind of thing.

You literally can’t quantify “enjoyment” as a measure for compensation. No one can. Be realistic.

Yet it is I who gets slapped for not being constructive. Meantime there are a noteworthy 2 running rampant, untouched for far more evident infractions. Will their post be edited? Will the discussion be closed?...not likely.

I don't remember kabam forcing the player base to play the permanent story mode that the vfx bug greatly affected.
You took the risk so live with the consequences

Doosra

After vfx issues are fixed, I noticed a serious drop in inputs,I can't do a normal 5 hit combo without dropping inputs and taking specials to the face,
And this is not after running the game after 1 hr issues, it's my first 10 streak in arena after I opened my game

Ghost / Kitty / G99 / Stryfe etc all have a phase timer right under their health bar (cooldown timer for G99).

Terrax’s Rock Field causes his power bar to grey out.

Emma’s states are shown under her health bar.

Yes there are vfx issues, but that doesn’t mean it totally handicapped anyone or caused a “massive drop in enjoyment”.
