The future of MCOC
A few years ago, Kabam showed a timeline of main events (and acts) for the foreseeable future. I cannot find it anywhere, but it is safe to say, that it probably changed along the way.
In any case, spoiler alert for the end of act 5.
When the act finished, we got that message saying "To be concluded in Act 6". Concluded, not continued. Which makes sense to me. And I will tell you why.
There was a big gap between acts 4 and 5. In that meantime, the game went through a lot of big changes, like the willpower nerf and the introduction of more champions to the 5 star crystal. By the time Act 5 started, people were supposed to have progressed to a point where they would already possess a 5 star rank 4 (judging by the rewards around the end of act 4 and LoL). By the end of Act 5, we are getting 6 stars and the possibility to rank 5 our five stars.
There are no more stars, so my guess is Act 6 will be 6 star worthy and will reward the resources to rank up those six star champs. After that I would rather this game to end and start anew in Marvel Contest of Champions 2. Maybe convert our 5 stars to the new 4 stars, or something like that. I don't know, but it seems to me like the game peaked before the 6 stars were introduced. Getting in the game is not as fun as it used to with the energy cost of Act 4, and the feeling that you are missing on something for not being uncollected. So I think this game is still popular because it is addictive for us veterans mostly. But this is just my point of view. I am pretty sure the game is very profitable and they would probably start a new story in the game with a new Act 1. I am not sure about the level of difficulty that should have after Act 6, though.
So what are your thoughts on where the game could possibly go?
