What would be ideal is for all rewards structure to be update quarterly. they don't do that either.
So instead the trend has been coming out with end game content like epoch of pain, ordeal, etc every other month and drain all our resources. thats the hidden plan LOL
Updating the Rewards every 3 months would put the game in the grave.
That’s an awfully big statement. While I agree that updating rewards every 3 months would like not be the best, to say it would kill the game is a huge statement.
We have sales that release an influx of materials every 2-3 months (banquet, vday, spring cleaning, July 4th, a sept sale, and cyber weekend) and it doesn’t break the game. I agree that making a full ag or t7b available monthly likely would accelerate things too much but making a nominal amount of ag shards, 7* sig stones, titan shards, t7b frags (just to name a few) available in BG or aq stores doesn’t seem outrageous.
Then ongoing you don’t even need to introduce new mats, instead slightly increase the amount available and/or reduce the cost. Not drastically but seeing smaller updates more regularly would drastically alter the community’s perception.
They are simply doing what they have done with every other game. Best predictor of future behavior, is past behavior. Always been a horrible company, in most ppls opinions, except for the 2-5 on here that area pitiful, bad actors lol. )
To be fair, this is also how I judge forum sentiment. While there are always exceptions (and it is the exceptions that compel me to keep coming back) in general it is the same as it is with every other game I've played, the same as it has been in the past, and it is always skewed heavily negative and in a way that has no specific relevance to the future of the game.
I don't really think its all that good for either side to go off the rails, but I will say as someone in a position to make this choice all the time there's a fundamental difference between those who are trying to give actionable feedback going off the rails and those who are criticizing them to go off the rails, and that is that if you're actually trying to improve the game somehow, there's no such thing as a tie. If they are bad actors and you're a bad actor, the net result is the entire discussion is neutralized. If you want to argue and they want to argue, you both get what you want. If you want change and they want to argue, you lose.
There are no perfect forum actors and I include myself in that description, but I always know why I'm posting, whether I'm trying to inform, to entertain, to motivate, to educate, or to advocate. This is something most people should try to keep in mind when they decide to post. Are they trying to promote discussion the devs might pay attention to, or are they trying to score points with a bunch of people who have no influence on the game?
There are certainly some valid complaints about rewards in the game, and they should be the focus of discussion. However, threads like this one consistently make me less interested in taking any sort of look at those issues, because if this is the direction the discussion is always going to go in, I'd rather spend the time on literally anything else. I'm probably not the only person who feels that way.

You statement sounds strange. Don't forget it's not Kabam pay players to play the game, players pay Kabam and they can step away if they don't feel right.
There is plenty of valuable information, you guys just pick the worst and meaningless one and pretend this is all we are saying, this is why people stop sharing their feedbacks.

Both the Community and Guardian tags only direct us back to the Admin post in this thread.
If there is no Administrator post and only Guardian or Community posts in the thread then we get this.....
Something definitely not working as intended. Hope this clears it up!!

It's a great day in Empire.
Don't forget it's not Kabam pay players to play the game, players pay Kabam and they can step away if they don't feel right.
