Petition to keep BG solo and alliance milestones the same

This is very hot topic for some and I would love to petition for kabam to keep the solo and alliance based milestones the same going forward. Honestly I don’t think these rewards are game breaking and there are many including myself who want nothing to do with AW but still want to be competitive in BG. Many will have varying opinions on this topic, but it’s something I feel should be discussed internally with Kabam.

The whole point for the rewards was to supplement for the fact that AW was not live. If AW was live and the BG rewards stayed the same, then it would be as if people competing in Alliances get AW Season Rewards but doubled.

This may be nice for the minor Solo players, but will introduce a lot of materials for people in alliances. I don’t think Kabam wants that.

I say no specifically because of what @Siliyo pointed out. PLUS .. I'd much prefer a less crowded Battlegrounds lol

If someone wants to put that much time to doing high level of AW and doing BG, I see no problem with them getting both rewards. It’s a lot of dedicated time for that, but even so they can even look into moving it to rank rewards instead of milestones so it’s not a full guaranteed that you will get the top rewards, but still will get a portion. That’s why I say Kabam needs to have internal talks cause I’m sure the numbers show that AW is not as popular as BG.

Not to be that person but at the end of the day spenders are allowed to get rewards during certain events that can render participating in content pretty trivial. I really don’t see the harm in making a change like this. If monetisation can screw up the game economy all the time, I don’t see a problem with hard work being rewarded adequately…

It’s a pipe dream to think Kabam would do this though 😵‍💫

The way game economy is broken,
These milestone rewards are puny.

Petition can be a noun or a verb. In the context of OP's post he was clearly using it as a verb. I don't think making a request to Kabam violates any terms of service especially since the post was done respectfully.

I'm down for this to be permanent but I'm not sure if I would personally grind every month for it since it takes a lot of time. Also they need to buff AW rewards if that's the case since the BG rewards are better overall unless you at the very top for AW.

I’d be on board with this so long as they changed the alliance objective to have minimum contributions for each milestone. Too many lazy players got an easy ride to great rewards.

If these became permanent I would definitely play more BG. I pushed to GC/400k solo points for the first time and wouldn’t do it again without the boosted rewards. It’s not my favorite game mode but this reward structure on the solo side made it worth it for me.

My alliance didn’t push much so I don’t think we’ll get much there.

I've had a thread awhile back before i made this forum account using the same language as the OP because i had similar thinking as you with the form of the word but it still got smacked down which is why i wanted to let them know

US freedom of speech applies to the US Goverment, and not any entities separate from the government.

Interesting choice of words in "similar thinking". The definition of the word petition is not my thinking... it's the known definition of the word.

"Hey guys sign my PETITION to get the previous alliance and solo BG objectives carried through from season to season."

"Hey Kabam, I'd like to PETITION you guys to carry through the previous alliance and solo BG objectives into future BG seasons."

The first use is defining it as a physical document to be signed. The second use is defining it as a synonym of request or ask.

So you're saying that if I use "petition" as a synonym for request, I can get my post flagged for violating forum rules? That's like me trying to bench press 50 lbs... just not holding weight.

There was already a problem with people grinding it out in VT instead of going for wins to get to GC.

If your petition to keep milestone rewards is agreed on, then expect there to be drastic changes to everything (Elder Marks, energy, penalty for losses, etc). And that might be too many changes for Kabam to want to make.

Coppin

Nah i don't like it... It gives lower progression levels way too much rewards...

ReignkingTW

Solo rewards are terrible..some gems and 6* shards for an average player? 1k 7k shards if you are little higher? Pfft.

Section 2 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms here also applies to the same rights of speech, albeit with the caveat that various forms of hate speech are not protected under that. Which means people can't just spread vile hatred and cite the right to speech.
However, this Forum is not the same. We all agree to rules in order to participate.

US freedom of speech applies to the US Goverment, and not any entities separate from the government.

More specifically, in the US we refer to the right to freedom of speech, but the actual Constitutional law is not explicitly a right, rather it is a prohibition (which implies a right). The first amendment to the Constitution specifies (among other things) that Congress (meaning the federal government) is prohibited from making laws that restrict free speech. This limitation is presumed to intersect with other responsibilities of the government (for example, it does not prohibit "shout Fire in theater" style laws designed to protect the public). Through a legal doctrine known as incorporation (via the fourteenth amendment) this prohibition extends to the State governments within the United States.

The right we (US citizens) are implied to have by the First Amendment is the right to speech free from unnecessary government interference. We don't have a right to force everyone else in the world to listen to us, or to facilitate our speech with their resources.

AQ rewards are a complete joke and should be canceled at this point . AW rewards need to be buffed as well, as its only really good if youre higher up , but even if you are, you have to use a ton of resources on pots and the experience is just really stressful with deaths.

Battlegrounds doesnt have that stresss and has a ton of rewards NOT JUST from these solo events and alliance but the BG shop as well. Keeping the milestone rewards means more tokens and elder marks to aid in pushing for more rewards from the shop

startropics

don't normalize extra work. it was fun for a month but let's get back to normal. these rewards won't mean as much in 3-4 months and there's no sense in burning out fellow teammates over bgs

Actually, the rewards for middle alliances are pretty good. My alliance is super chill about war, we average tier 11 or so, aim for and generally place Gold 3, and most of the players in my alliance appreciates the 6* Nexus crystal among other rewards.

It is not as exciting for me as it is for most of my alliance members, but I'm just a lot higher than most of my alliance members. An alliance of similar composition but without me could get those rewards as well.

Top tier alliance war is always going to be stressful, because it is a competition. Who is going to cruise when their competition only has to do slightly more than that and beat them. Performance is an escalation. If the rewards were not worth it, they wouldn't all collectively do it.

War doesn't take a ton of time, outside of officer coordination. Whatever tier you'd end up in if everyone played relatively stress free, the rewards in that tier are worth it. If you push harder, eventually you will be pushing harder than the incremental reward increase isn't worth it. But it is up to the players to decide correctly how much effort they want to invest relative to the rewards. For every war bracket, there is a level of effort that makes those rewards worth it. Just don't spend more than that.

Also, outside of top tier(s) war war is no longer expensive, since revives are free and don't even count against item use. Which means any alliance that wants to do war resource-free and stress free can do so, and let the chips fall where they may. They are never in a position to be forced to spend. Almost like that was the purpose of making revives free.

Agree, at least until aq and aw rewards are buffed alongside the loyalty and glory store

I agree, there’s just not much incentive to do alliance content. Mainly AQ

Vegeta9001

I rarely touched BG outside of this season, when rewards dip, think I'll be back to putting up maybe 25-40k a season. If the rewards aren't to your liking don't play it?

Shouldn't have this thread been shut down by now over the use of the word petition? What am I missing?
