What can kabam do for people to start enjoying the game again???

How can we have a balance between real life and gaming???

Kabam needs to realize that too much content = burn out.
These time sentitive events = burn out
1 hour timer and 1.5 hour timer = burn out

Please reduce content and gives quality.

Quality > Quantity

Please get this straight before is too late kabam!!!!!

Kabam, get your thing together. This is serious

He's leaving because he has other things going on. How is that Kabam's fault?

No he is leaving because the game completely obliterates your real life. Way too much content. BURN OUT is real

CapWW2

I retired myself from AQ and AW for the same reason. I just play what I enjoy the most which is Quest on my own time with no commitments to these events that dont let you be free. I have advocated for 30 minutes timer for years but I lost faith.

GroundedWisdom

I watched the Video. He's leaving because he has real-life things going on. Which is how it should be. There's content in the game for peopoe who have time, and part of that is selecting what you want to do. That's a good thing. You can't always do everything. I'm not sure what you expect, the game can't play itself.

Are peopoe another type of specie within the homo sapiens spectrum????

Sure, I play AQ map 0 and AW tier 100. I am having a blast!!!

By the way he is leaving because the game demands too much time due to too much content and it is preventing him to have a balance.

Guess what? At the end of the day real life is first. Your family, your job is first. Look at all the content we are getting bombarded next month. It is astonishing that this great game that was times ago is getting this Asphyxiating...

Make MCOC great and simple again.

GroundedWisdom

Yes, real life comes first. That's part of being an adult. That doesn't mean it's the game's fault when we don't have time to do it all.

The very beginning of the video he says hes leaving because he has real life stuff going on. Doesnt say because theres to much going on in the game. More content= more rewards to progress. If i dont want to do something i won't. Just because You feel its too much doesnt mean the rest does. You can make that choice too. Kabam doesnt force to you play anything at all. You make the choice to login and play. You choose what you want to play. Stop trying to blame it on them. You're an adult (doubtful) make your own choices and stop blaming others.

Good gravy! I never understand the argument of too much content.
Just play what you want to play. Find an alliance that is chill and makes few, if any demands. The "asphyxiating" demands this game puts on people are of their own doing. I scaled back from the hardcore AQ/AW life a while back, I still have fun playing the game. I may progress slower than my former ally mates, but who cares? It is just a game. They put more into the game, they SHOULD see more progression.

I barely touched dungeons the last time around, don't know how much I will touch them this time around...but them being brought back does not bother me. Why should those that do live on this game 24/7 be deprived of additional content because I don't want to do it? It is just so whiny....

Play this game on your own terms, if doing so slows your growth to the point where the game is not fun anymore....quit playing.

How do you explain the people leaving in bunches?

How do you explain the people quitting?

How do you explain the proliferation or retirement alliances?

How do you explain Burn Out?

There is no balance between this game and real life. The fact you are saying you choose what to play is laughable. You either retire or play competitive, there is no in between. If you dont play competitive you fall behind. In my case I do not care about falling behind because I am not comprimising my family or my job for a MOBILE GAME. I know my limits well.but people with competitive edge cannot play relax therefore the sell all chamls and retire or sell/give away their accounts.

Kabam needs to realize that this game has a population of ghost accounts and ghost alliances that is increasing by the day in bunches. People that are blind to see this are leaving in another planet.

I think being in an alliance is what makes this game feels like a chore. I left my alliance four months back and I feel relaxed playing solo.

Yes yes yes. Alliance play is just asphyxiating and most times toxic.

How do you explain 100's of new players a day? How do you explain all the recruiting that goes on here, reddit, on the Line app and discord? For as many people leaving, there are more coming in at the same time. Every game has this. Life itself has this. Some people get bored of the game. Some people can't have what they want in the game and can't handle it. Some people accomplished what they set out to do. Some people get banned. Some people find another game they like. Some people turn and focus on real life. Your feelings of the game are yours and arent really mirrored by the vast majority and you need to realize it.

He says, thinking everyone on the forums are older than 18......

GroundedWisdom

Yes people pick the game up everyday.
As for people retiring, they have their own reasons. The rest of us enjoy having a variety of content and don't want the game watered down. Can't do it all? Do as much as you can. People burn themsleves out trying to do everything. We don't have to do it all. That's a choice. It's also the point in some cases. They have something for everyone. Not everything that must be done. If you're burning out, do less. It's really simple.

I play in a 22222 Gold level alliance. My profile has still grown 30k in the last month and a half. On days where there is no AQ/AW, I sometimes only log in for my daily and to knock out help requests. With the boosted AQ rewards, I am still ranking up champs and progressing. I am still having fun. There is a middle ground between "competitive" and "retired".

As far as burnout and people quitting....it is a 3.5 year old game. Every day people will get tired of it, and new people will start playing it. I once took a 6 month break from it myself. Personally, I just keep my head down...have fun playing...and don't get worked up about what other people have or receive. Once again, it is just a game.

The reality of people complaing about additional content tends to lean towards people wanting the rewards that are offered for additional content, but are irritated that they will not get those rewards because they don't have the time.

Tarzan041

There isn't too much content, you don't have to do everything. I only do what I think is fun, I even went from a 12 million alliance to a 7 million alliance. Because I don't want to put the time required to stay in a 12 mil alliance. My complaint wouldn't be there's to much content, it would be, all the problems in this game that makes fun content, not fun like glitches, freezing, crashing, phone over heating, bad crystal drops, lack of resources, over priced items ECT.

Why dont you quit the game all toghether? You seem to hate it so much and bash compettive players for doing content. Why is it you are still here? Why not move to a different game?

I said I play retired. I play AQ map 0 and AW tier 100 😂. Brahhh you can play 24/7 and it does not affect me. Have fun sir.

When are beginners catching the meta??? 2024??? Once they realize how time consuming this game is, half of them quit.

No he is leaving because the game completely obliterates your real life. Way too much content. BURN OUT is real

He doesn’t have to play all content though

I semi retired and feels great I went from a 5*5 plus aw 3 times a week and event minimums ally to one that runs map 3 and only 2 bgs of aw so I'd I don't feel like playing I don't it's very refreshing and the game became fun again. I might decide to go back to competitive play in a few months who knows but there is definitely alternatives instead of just grinding yourself to death

It obviously does. Not me in general but the majority of us that play all content. This post assist because you are trying to prove a point against people that use their time to beat content. You arent funny either. AQ map 0? Come on, you can try harder than that... Or are your jokes retired too?

Yes I understand that argument, however even 25 percent of the game is an awful LOT.

Cool idea! If I am in an debate and do not have a logical counter-argument....I will just type that I am laughing and use a bunch of emoticons!

Dude why you even hear? Your moaning to make the game better and stop your lover retiring, then at the same time saying it’s rubbish and you don’t even play it...

Make your mind up, just seems stupid, and you have the cheek to laugh at others? Do one

CapWW2

I never said i quit playing or stop playing. I said I play retire.

Retire means no alliance modes of play. Please read my comments before giving your opinion.

Back to the deal. The game has way too much content which forces you to spend more time. You will see more people retiring and quiting. You will see

GroundedWisdom

Let's break it down.
EQ: The most time-consuming on a monthly basis. Can be done quickly, for a cost, or at a pace althroughout the month.
Grinding: Necessary for Resources, but entirely depends on what Champs you want to go for.
Storymode: Permanent. Can be done at your leisure.
AQ and War: Mote time-consuming if you're a Leader or Officer, but really only requires logging on at select times a day to move.
Special Events: Optional.
End-Game: Designed to take time.

What really adds the pressure is the high demands people place on themsleves and the expectations that Allies place on them. If you find it too much, you can move to a more relaxed Ally.
There's not too much going on. There is a variety of content that people spin their wheels into the ground trying to do because they want to do it all to stay on top. That's not the fault of the game. That's one's own expectations.
