Mcoc and the future

Hello all, this is a start of a positive discussion meant to bring awareness of mcoc and its direction of game play. If we do not voice our thoughts, opinions, and observations, then the game will continue down the path it is headed, straight to our wallets.
Why? We all have taken the term for aw aw wallet wars. Because, let's face it, that's the only true way to win week after week. Either spending mad cash on game aspects for the latest round of champs or spending it to win aw. I've seen alliance after alliance win but using revs. And I mean tons of revs. When I started aw was a challenge yet it was fun. We spent time planning champ placement, boosting champs to fill diversity, and planning our attack. Now, I've spent tons of iso, gold, cats, and time grinding out arenas to keep filling diversity for nothing. Champ placement is worthless. Its turned from fun and exciting to a second job playing.
Aq? Each day of the week the skill increases, and as our accounts get stronger so does aq. That's fine. Means we wont get to a point as to beating aq and not even thinking of it. Did I like getting all our rewards at the end of the aq week vs aw we hit each milestone, not really but I adjusted. I believe kabam looking at and adjusting the rewards was great. Means they are being willing to adjust rewards.
On this note, let's bring up the v19 update. iPhone issues in battery over heating. Yes they finally fixed the issue, but 3 weeks into the event. Compensation? None. But kabam does not give into compensation. Why offer something for free when we can charge them cash. But the game is getting out of hand. Kabam kept introducing new material throughout the month, and where was the update fixing iPhones? I'm so glad I have an android and never saw this issue. So glad. But many felt kabam should have paused everything to fix the iPhone issue but the phones used in playing the game doesnt be long to kabam so who cares right?
This month brought on the 3rd month that I have noticed an increase in difficulty. And so has many others I know personally. I remember the first time beating master quest, revs and heals needed. But I finished. I also remember when I was able to finish without heals and revs. Then came thanos. The month of thanos was the first time in a year I wasnt able to finish master without revs or heals. Pure luck was what got me through. UC run, had to count that out as master ate up all my heals and revs, and I'm still recovering. Last month was not as hard but still required heals and an odd rev to finish. This month, same as last. So all in all, I do think the increase in difficulty has be slowly added. Why? Cold hard cash. We run out of units so we spend cash to replace units. Sorry kabam f2p here.
Each month has some odd glitch pop up after the update. Last month it was evade back into block. Well, let's say it, evade isnt the same today as it was 3 months ago. Quake went from an awesome champ using evade to her advantage into being a chump. I used quake nearly every quest team to dropping her out. Why? She would evade but my opponent would not land a 2nd hit to be parried as they once did. Gee, I wonder why that changed happened. $$$$
So after these last 3 months, let me say this. I've witnessed enough players retire to fill an alliance. It purely is heartbreaking. My daughter lost interest as she does not have 8 hrs per day for arena grinding for units not does she spend money in game.10 other close friends I hang out with personally have left. They were so sick of each monthly change. And I've watched many more left.
I know kabam is not all out evil. As a business owner I too would like a steady flow of income, but as a business owner with a BA in business, i understand keeping customers happy. Changes to the game doesnt make customers happy. I have since stopped spending my $5 per day for eating lunch once again instead of skipping lunch. Why? I dont feel like a happy customer anymore so I wont support the game until I do feel happy customer. Kabam addressed an issue about the names with all the characters that look the same. Great. Kabam you do listen. Now for the public that plays kabam to step up. Voice to kabam whenever you see a glitch, like ever wonder why during a fight the opponent seems to mysteriously walk away with 1 or 2% heal when all right you had the upper hand and you 5 bleeds just slowed down right at the end and then no matter how hard you tried you couldnt seem to block right or land that one stupid hit?
So this is what I'm saying. Begin voicing what you see. Let kabam know that a
As players we do notice everytime the make minor changes without posting them in game. I would love to see mcoc survive another 4 years. Marvel has tons of champs, but seriously mcoc isnt going to be much fun if they keep driving away players each and every week. My greatest fear is kabam shutting down mcoc due to the lack of players and that reason would be their fault if that happened. I'd love to see these top whales stop being kabam's eyes and ears as these whale are only making the game hard for the rest of use and easier for them.
So let's bring the awareness of what really wrong with the game out to the public and relay that back to kabam, as we all know they dont truly read those emails we send in to them. In the spirit of this I will start a discussion every time i run across a glitch in the game. Everytime something is different, I'll post it. Everyone feel free to simply agree with my findings. These people are what will show kabam it's not one lonely player seeing these changes, but a mass group seeing them. So expect to see a series of posts starting with the next update to kick off the next monthly event.

They gave you an easy way to get those champs though starting August 3 in the quickmatch arena. Yeah it’ll take a bunch of fights to get the champs but its better than them just saying here’s an event, hope you have the champs haha yeah they are 2 stars but there’s the possibility of pulling those champs as higher stars with a better pull rate when you play the event
First, if kabam closes the discussion I'll just open a new one. It would be in kabams best interest to let us as the driving force of mcoc to keep it going, read what is being put out there and comment back. Closing it forces us to use social media where they dont get to read and comment back.
Second, I do understand games have a life span, as do everything else that's produced. But outside of kabam mcoc and transformers, there is no other game where you do the fighting like a console game. All the games are turn based. So kabam has a gold mine if they sit down and listen to those that play everyday.
Third, I am full willing to talk to kabam and relay info to better the game. I've done beta testing since windows came out with win 95. So if they will listen I'll gladly take time out of my day and away from arena grinding to help further the game. Perks? I dont want perks. I want to see the game survive so we all can keep playing for the next 5+ years as this game has that ability.
I fully agree on multiple levels. Player skill being the key factor to higher rewards and better chances isnt fair in the spirit of the game. Let's face it, I lack the reflexes of a 16 year old to keep up with these super fast people. So does that mean I should receive less rewards? No, it shouldn't. I am on mcoc way more then I really should. And yes kabam should enforce the TOS. Someone mentioned arena bots and all kinds of hacks. Do I use these, heck no as I was raised to get what you earn. Hacks and bots are cheats and I dont cheat in life. Cheaters are losers that should be banned and not just lowered aw tiers so that use midlevel alliances are slammed with these cheaters.
True. The future is never set. Kabam could close the game tomorrow morning. I am hoping to get a discussion going to catch kabam's attention in a positive way to keep the future bright for all involved.
Yes, retirement wave has hit a lot of players. I've had people grinding so many arenas just wake up one morning and say I'm done on arena. I've had people slow down because of various reasons. I can understand someone saying real life is getting tough and back away, but what catches my attention is when someone says I've had enough of the difficulty getting harder, yet he is still stuck in the same heroic or master because the game keeps requiring high skilled players or deep pockets. That is a formula for the life span of a product like mcoc to be shortened. If 1 person leaves it goes unnoticed, but 1000 leave and kabam should sit and take notice going ik what's the problem. Kabam is missing one key factor in their game product, supply and demand. If no one is around to use the product or buy the supplies, then what's left? A store with no customers closes.
