So we waited for............................

****! Are they seriously thinking this is going to compensate us for our dedication and patience? Out of touch doesn't even begin to describe how upset this makes me. What exactly I am going to do with a 20% XP Global Boost at Level 60? And wait there's more we know can spend Glory on AQ revives, WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!! Total disappointment and I have no more words. Well, I actually have lots of words but will refrain from utilizing them here in a post.

Hey There!

I'm sorry to hear that the beginning of the event isn't living up to your expectations. We'll take this back to the team right away. The good news is that there is still 3 more weeks of stuff planned. There will also be more information available on this very soon on our blog.

I am happy a renamed gold realm is here.

Rest...meh. Scrap is overpriced for what u get. And the revive could have had at least a level 2.

Disappointed they didn't address the comp for downtime. Ok

"We know we costed you all resources and probably money with our mistakes, but now you can spend your REWARDS to replace them! Neato!"
Lol

Blackhawkbill

Playing devils' advocate there are 3 more weeks to look forward to...

That being said I've been sitting at level 60 for a year, am sitting on 20 mill+ gold and hardly EVER need team revives...so yeah...holding breathe for week two...

Sir_Pootington

Honestly, the xp bonus is kinda **** since there's an abundance of 40% boosters. I mean, I appreciate it...but if I get ONE MORE ARENA BOOST, IM GONNA SHANK SOMEONE.

Yeah I forgot to add that in my post....I literally have over 30 of the 40% XP boosts in my stash right now soon to expire (or be sold)

I'm not a big fan of what's been released so far but let's not forget it's a 4 week appreciation so you would expect things to get better week on week. Having said that, people have been begging for the gold realm to come back, just coz I have 18m in gold and not interested in it doesn't mean it isn't a great thing for a lot of people. Same can be said for XP boost and lvl 1 revives. Week 1 seems aimed more at lower level players, which is fine as there is another 3 weeks to hit what veterans might find useful

JFerg114

Seatin's CEO video though completely satirical is directly how this translates and we don't even need to see weeks 2 thru 4 if Week one is deplorable. It's just like the movies if Part 1 was trash, no one cares if you have 3 more in the works!

Vdh2008

Nope, nope, nope.

60 plus days of game breaking bugs (some STILL are not fixed, even though you state they have)... Alliances across the game spending THOUSANDS of $$$ to stay competitive in a broken game...MILLIONS of your users locked out of the game for an entire work day or longer... AQ broken and slapping alliances in the face with a new AQ schedule for a whole week punishing international alliances....

Your "appreciation" of us for dealing with ALL OF THAT is a renamed gold quest and XP boosts that some can't even use?

Oh, and the SMALLEST team revive that can't even be used without Health pots appears in the Glory store.

I'm borderline shaking with rage.

Veggetta

Well, this is actually disappointing. I have definitely no need for XP or gold. You are rewarding the newest players instead of those who have been in the game for a long time.

I feel so appreciated today!!!! Thanks Kabam I hope this 1 revive a week gets through 5 days of AQ and 3 AW's. I can't wait to jump in and use that 350 HP revive, it will really make a difference. You have shown just how important we all are. We as community are ever so grateful for this wonderfully thought out and beta test summoner appreciation event. Can't wait to buy that revive every 6 days, but wait you can do more. With the Dr. Voodoo arena almost finishing now is a good time for you guys to go ahead and reduce his regen to .5 seconds and once per quest. Also maybe he can only use specials on odd numbers over 51 combos. Awesome. I feel like I won the lottery!

SlySly

I seriously have no idea who out of their team sat in the office and came to a conclussion that lvl 1 revives, at that price once per week would help improve the company image. I want to hire him/her into my group project.

X_Scott

Thanks for all the junk i don't need! Are we getting a 3rd arena for Dr. VOODOO?

Listen dude i know its not your call what we get, but this really has been a massive slap in the face to the community, your alienating your top tier players again with xp boost which means nothing to a max lvl player, then your asking your community to use energy for gold events and glory for revives, as happy as i am to see some things back this really isnt a good way to give your community of players compensation for the last few months let alone rhe last few days, i hope the following 3 weeks get dramatically better.

Really Mike, not your fault at all but common. The players who are at level 60 and PI over 250K have no need for such a mundane AQ revive. We have been requesting an upgrade to the revives for at least 6 months.

What is 325 health going to do for a champ with base health of 18K-25K when you talk about 4 star rank 5 and and 5 star rank 4 champs. There is a reason apple no longer makes the 4gig iphone - it outlived its usefulness and is a waste of resources. AQ revives should be something like the following

Level 1 single revive - 1250 health cost 125 units or glory (yes we dont need all 3 champs at 325 health)
Level 1 team revive - 1000 health cost 250 units or glory
Level 2 team revive - 2000 health cost 350 units or glory

What the dev team gracialously offers is an insult to the player base!

I am disgusted!

My snappy remark aside Miike, a lot of us recognize you're on damage control and not making the calls. I'm sorry you so often feel the backlash from that.
I also know a lot of players try and get better stuff for mess ups than the situation calls for, but more often than not those of us in the middle just feel let down and not heard in the slightest.
I'll keep my head up for the next couple weeks. Please don't let me down.

Mcord11758

Many have said as much but I will throw my 2 cents in. This does not compensate for anything. It's better than nothing but not by much. Oh well, I had come to the conclusion they were doing nothing. Guess with that as a starting point this is better.

so nothing specifically for android users having the downtime? nothing for the people who couldn't compete in arenas because it would be impossible to catch up to ios users? People took off work to grind for arena and they couldnt get in...I get that ios users were affected too bc they were in alliances with android users but android users fell behind in events and arenas! Love that gold realm is back but how about some energy refills to be able to do them. But...i still wanted to go for voodoo before and i could not. my work week this week will not let me attempt it. you guys suck. Oh and i guess a revive is now worth 25% of a t4b? LOL! Basically, to compensate us you release more content which would cause people to spend money. Here is gold realm! now pay us to be able to complete it! Oh, bugs caused you guys to crash and use revives and potions? well now you can BUY more! And "we heard you guys, you want more xp boosts because your inventories are all maxed out with them!"

oh and btw, Doctor strange still sux lmao

And to add insult to even more injury fellow Android user, guess who the Boss of the Gold Realm is?

You can't make this stuff up, wait Kabam can!

WeaponX

Yeah, I'd say this is underwhelming at best and completely out of touch with what players need as well as the cost we incurred as a result of the game not working properly for so long.

Watch how kabam skips over every comment in this thread but replies to this one.

Mcord11758

Ok last comment, I went back and read everything again. How does this show appreciation? I can get a revive for glory but is a revive that will cost me several hundreds of u it's to heal.

I can get extra xp but I have been maxed for a year

I can get gold but need to burn all of my in game energy to do so

This makes up for alliance potions for an entire month to 2 months because of bugs?

Oh well

They have been doing this for a LONG time ... you notice how new players still get the 3x and 4x unit deals and I haven't seen one of those in over a year.

SkyRattlers

I echo a lot of what has been said above.

Miike, it just feels like Kabam is out of touch with it's players. Adding a single lvl 1 AQ/AW revive into the Glory store does not address the communities concerns regarding that issue. If you want to truly show appreciation to your customers then revamp the entire revive/health pot mechanic. Using static numbers doesn't work in the new meta that you've created. 280 glory to revive a team and then 260 more just to heal them back to 6250 health (40% on a 5/50 champ, 25% health on a 4/55 champ.) just doesn't hold any value. It's time to turn those static numbers into percentages. Making a lvl 1 revive regain 10% and a lvl 4 health potion regain 75% health would be a worthy purchase for our 540 glory.

DrunkGinger

About as lackluster and underwhelming as I have come to expect of Kabam. As an appreciation to all summoners they are giving you more stuff to spend $$ and resources on since it doesn't seem like we already spent enough during the months of trying to play a bug ridden game.

sbb75

Kabam should be embarrassed if they consider this compensation. Creating new ways for your customers to spend additional money, units, resources, and then calling it appreciation is insulting.
20% XP and a gold realm, that's nice. Cant wait to see how many blank 3 tile spaces there are. Make them all 1 tile and no blanks.
I wonder if the Master level has a some crazy buffed boss at the end.
Great timing the news with...
The Scrap attached to units? This is after most people used their scrap. The offer is spend $150 for 1 T4 basic.

Kabam,
Please post something saying the appreciation events are not meant to be compensation for the Android outage or Bugs costing revives and boosts.

Please refund my Alliance all boosts and revives they used after the Android outage to win AW vs a linked Boss.

@Kabam Miike what do you think of the comments?
