What level of compensation are we looking at here?

Honestly this feels like the biggest screw up since 12.0. There are so many levels to this dysfunction and so many areas that need to be considered for whatever compensation Kabam is going to dole out. I think the game is in serious jeopardy right now. What can they do to make this right? Seriously? Can they?

War is affected…
AQ is affected…
Many will miss out on claiming a final rebirth crystal…

What’s the reason for this extended shut down?
Why can’t anyone from Kabam clue us in?
And the best question, why did they try to fix something that wasn’t really broken? Seemed like EQ was in its best place in a while with people happy to run the Valiant EQ - it was fresh (especially the 1st iteration (whyd they change from that is another question!)) and the rewards seemed appropriate for the effort.

This is all a true cluster f*** that could possibly do in the game for good.

and another issue is how and when would they deliver compensation? There are already outstanding compensation promises they’ve failed to hand out. Are they just going to move on from that earlier compensation? This could really get ugly.

BUT,..BUT,..there’s a sale coming !!!

Well, they’ve said comp when they’ve fixed the issues and they haven’t fixed anything yet lol

Agreed, but Kabam did post that it was an issue with the new EQ (surprising.) Apparently the wrong cats were given so they shut the game down to correct that. It’s been down quite a long time tho.

Compensation based on your prestige….

sadly this is true… seems like all this was a good way to distract from putting all of that on th back burner.

There was an unintended distribution of class cats that they have to claw back.

I really do think that’s the game they’re playing with us

Mint9aer0

1 revive and 10 units would be sufficient

Apparently the compensation is that everyone is banned for trying to do the new content. 😱

Pretty lame comp

Why is this in 180p?

I don't know how they managed to actually make the comp worse than could've been expected. Especially for those of us that are still suspended because of their bug.

The Summoner's Fest points are a meaningless amount. What are we going to do with 10 heals for AW when the season now doesn't matter and the next season might not matter either? The extra AQ refills only make sense if we get into the game at a reasonable time - it doesn't solve the fact that our alliances have to clear a man (or more) down. AW refills? Again, the season doesn't matter.

For the length of the outage, really bad comp. For the extended length that some of us must suffer through, abysmal. Kabam should continue to be increasingly embarrassed.

I agree it needs to be better comp. Half of it is worthless right now

Adback40

There's crickets on here… most people dont use Discord... ya that compensation is an absolute joke!

TikkaMasala

I’m not sure what I honestly expected but what they’re suggesting is adequate compensation is a complete joke. I’m embarrassed for them.

TikkaMasala

how is there no mention of compensation for AQ and AW as they’re both going to be significantly impacted now more than from the initial 4 hour lockout now that many players will be “banned” and unavailable to help their alliances complete these maps? Kabam just never sees the whole picture.

DrZola

This is all I’ve seen. If anyone on the team had the courtesy to post it here, I’m not aware of it.

The compensation is a complete joke. 10,000 summoner fest points is meaningless for those of us who already achieved all the milestones. It doesn't in anyway help in rank rewards either, since everyone will receive these additional points. At the bare minimum, there should have been few thousands of titan shards, some units and glory or radiance. As always, they messed up.

This. I know it won’t take 6 days but the compensation is a joke for an extended ban. Summoner fest points mean nothing and potions and revives are farmable. Nothing to compensate the actual missed gameplay, battlegrounds, alliance events, and daily milestones.

What ban are you talking about? This compensation is for the emergency maintenance issue, isn't it?

If you completed part of the EQ, you received full T6CC. To claw back the rewards, any players that received catalysts have been temporarily banned.

I just saw the announcement on discord. 7 day ban for no fault of the players?? Holy cow!!! Twice the compensation (without a second serving of 10k summoner fest points) does jack **** to the impacted players. It's like rubbing salt to an injury and laughing about it. I really feel sorry for those who got this unfair ban.

Exactly! And I don’t think it will take 7 days but that just so happens to be when BG season ends and I believe they have an event starting tomorrow.
