    I wish also same buddy, I asked this because someone asked about the new year gift but I didn't recognise earlier they ever given, but if they give this year it will be a good set off against sbc compensation type

    They probably meant lunar new year which is near the end of January

    They usually don't but this year would be nice if they do.
    Should do whatever they can to make up for this shambolic banquet event.
    It doesn’t matter what we think. It doesn’t matter what feedback we provide. It doesn’t matter that we are extremely unhappy and feel very let down by the SBC and its atrocious drop rates and filler. It doesn’t matter because Kabam told us prior to the event that they heard the feedback from the previous year and hyped this one up to be a massive improvement, and guess what? It was worse than the previous year, in terms of the actual crystal. That alone proves that they don’t listen to us, they don’t take us seriously and they don’t care what we think.

    Kabam will likely not even acknowledge our frustration with a sensible, open engagement with the community via a livestream. I can assure you that Kabam will feel that they have smashed it and achieved success and they will see it no other way - Kabam Crashed has already alluded to this in his response (one of the only responses from Kabam after all this time). That should tell you all you need to know. They will have made millions (tens of millions) from this event, and that’s why they are happy, irrespective that it’s at the cost of opening crystals which have pathetic drop rates ranging 0.03% , 0.07% , 0.1% and so on. I myself bought 27k units worth of crystals and did not pull a single key, not one trophy champion. But hey, I did get 5k x T7 fragments which I should be grateful for, even though I’ll never be able to get enough of it to form even one T7 cat.

    It doesn’t matter to Kabam that we pay 300 units a pop to consistently pull 3 x ISO, 250k gold and some ridiculously small amount of T6 or other junk filler item, that apparently is improved filler too.

    Once you understand that Kabam don’t care about us, just our money, then you will figure out that we won’t get nice things like a new years gift on the back end of a 10 year anniversary, because that’s how Kabam operate. The only way to get these guys to actually listen to us, not just say they’ve listened, is to either stop playing their game, stop spending money on it, or both…

    The hypocrisy and irony with that comment from Crashed that they’ve made it so there’s no gap between spenders and f2p when that couldn’t be further from the truth… it seems you need to spend around £60k upwards in order to obtain R4 champs from this event, so how that is not evidence of the very obvious gap between spenders and non-spenders is beyond me… looking forward to the response from Kabam on this crystal issue, and how their response is going to be positioned to possibly backtrack on certain statements, like this spender comment… a response from Kabam to the community, if we’re even considered worthy enough to be provided with one.

    I don’t recall last year, but there have been Jan. 1 New Year’s cash offers in the past. It wouldn’t surprise me if there were something similar this year, but neither would it surprise me if there were nothing.

    I've been consistently surprised by the holidays that this game does and doesn't celebrate.

    Well, i think it's finally time for the whole community to become f2p so they can learn their lesson. (Basically boycott them lol)
    If we can't win neither can they.

    I think their intention / heart was in the right place, they tried to give us an event to celebrate the huge milestone of 10 years of game but they did things which just felt off. For me the crystal is the major issue, the bonus rewards were great but it’s the ridiculously low drop rates and the small amount of whatever filler that were the issue. At 300 units a piece, you do not expect to be subjected to such a poor engagement. The whole point of the banquet is the excitement of opening crystals and receiving good amounts of high value items, that’s core to the fun aspect of the interaction and it’s not a cheap one at that. I feel that these crystals should have been no more than 150 units, if that. At 300 units, the drop rates and values should have been significantly higher. After the hype which they created about this crystal, it fell well short of what I certainly expected it to be.

    "The whole community" has almost gotten us to 4.9 billion points and they're still opening crystals.

    Yeah Kabam should make it a habit to give out a Christmas gift and a New Years Gift starting soon if not 2024 then this year. Those are two different holidays and should be treated as such. Please kabam make the change accordingly.

    They usually don't but this year would be nice if they do.
    Should do whatever they can to make up for this shambolic banquet event.
    There's no gift for new years and Kabam isn't your boyfriend. They don't have to buy you flowers because you feel they did something wrong.
    What if they are my boyfriend?

    Are you a moderator on these forums? Unless I have broken a rule or not engaged appropriately, then I’d expect to be informed accordingly, by a moderator. I was happily having a discussion with another member and you felt the need to hop on and tell me what I should be doing. Happy for you to go and police comments, if that’s your thing, but I don’t appreciate it so I’m letting you know.

    You haven't engaged properly, and the mods don't warn you anymore for things like this, they arent that active, but as someone who has been a part of the forum community for a while, if I notice someone doing something that could be done better, I will tell them. Likewise if someone tells me something that can be done better, so be it, I will move on. What I don't understand is all these false allegations of bullying
