Potential Delay to v44.1 Launch
We are currently working through some issues that may affect the release window of v44.1. This means that the update may not release on Monday as it usually does. We are working to resolve the issue holding us up as quickly as possible, but will keep you all updated, especially if the delay results in any changes to the content release schedule.

Btw kabam also need to prepare for those guys and girls who will kick by Leader or officers before they will take there season rewards too.
So they cant take the season rewards,
And its will be again the big issues in community
So issues after issues not good for sure ,
Dont know why kabam not going for maintenance and fix leaderboard and The whole game ,
They have time for new A/Q announcement,
They have time for releasing act 6.3
But when its about rewards , They Are silence and telling its not going to fix until next weekend which is kinda unfair for players who wanna go for retire and who wanna go for something different like map 7x5 ,
Until rewards out no one can leave ,
So Lock the kick button until Rewards out for everyone which is fair enough for everyone
Anyone who jumped before the start of war 7 definitely had the chance to participate because the problems happened only at the very tail end of war 7. Depending on when your alliance matches, it probably happened some time between the last few hours and literally right as wars were ending. The higher your alliance, the earlier you match so for most alliances above a certain tier downtime was cutting off maybe the last hour or two at most, if that. I'd say anyone trying to get participation credit in the last few minutes of a war is playing with fire, but it is possible a very tiny number of players were bit here.
The real problematic window is anyone jumping or getting kicked after the start of war 7 but before the start of war 8. They would have had two shots to get participation credit, if their alliance was able to enlist for war 8 or war 9. A lot of alliances got locked out of war 8. Fewer I believe got locked out of 9. Any player jumping after war 7 into an alliance locked out of wars 8 and 9 would then be the largest potential group of players that should have had a chance to get participation credit but were unable to do so due to unavoidable game problems. I'd be curious to know how large that group of players are. If Kabam is reviewing data to look for "manual compensation fixes" I'd focus my attention there.
u successfully wasted my day by letting me check my inbox every now and then for rewards only to announce it 24 hours later that the rewards are going to take a few days.
thanks!!
There's nothing magical about 12 wars. Seasons used to be 24 wars long. They were shortened because players were getting burned out on the long season. Reducing the length of the season reduces the number of wars you have to "decide" placement, and that increases the variability. But there's a trade off between how many match ups help determine placement, and how many people are willing to tolerate. The choice is mostly arbitrary, in that it depends on subjective factors and not quantitative ones.
We compromised from 24 to 12 not because 12 is a better number, but simply because players didn't want to fight 24. This season we're compromising from 12 to 6 because of a catastrophic corruption bug. It is less wars than we normally fight, but it isn't less fair, because there's nothing special about 12 that makes it "enough." If everyone was getting burned out on 12 war seasons, it could very well be 6 war seasons now, whether it was "enough" or not.
Also, 2^6 = 64. That's more than twice as large as the master's bracket (including the top three). Mathematically speaking, that's enough match ups to "resolve" the master's bracket, at least to a first order approximation. That's not the same thing as "deciding" the master's bracket with certainty, but it is enough to say it isn't completely off the wall.
Because there are like around 10 alliances that compete in Masters, and small amount of allainces in Tier 1 around less than 15, the match making pool is pretty small. If your just above Tier 1 u can match up with Tier 2 alliances.
meanwhile there are ALOT of platinum and gold allainces out there.
Not enough war, have to take consideration that they match easier allaince, but we matched up against Kenob and Ny,
Both allainces are top 5 These guys didnt match Kenob,Ny like we did
All i said was that "6" wars is to short, to consider crowning top 3 in masters especially when
#2 9322 witch is @Noone allaince
didn't face #1Kenob or #3 Ny718 or #4 ASR (allaince i am in )
When allaince is just above war rating for T1 cutoff there is a chance that they can match with T2 allainces Resulting in much easier matchups. Or avoiding tough wars
I said 6 wars is to small to judge top 3 in masters, especially when 9322 didnt face kenob or ny.
We have faced Kenob and Ny718 both allainces, resulting us in 4-2 for first 6 wars, and was rank #4,
but after the 7th war we was #2
#2 9322 @Noone did u or did u not have a war against these below alalinces for season 13?
#1 Kenob
#3 Xilem
#4 Asr (me)
#5 Ny718
i was there when it was 24 wars,
Made masters Season 2,
but thats not the case, nor is it the subject. noone said it was magical.
12 wars is the standard now for many seasons.
i was there when it was 24 wars,
Made masters Season 2,
but thats not the case, nor is it the subject.
i Simply posted that 6 wars is to short to crown masters allaince especially when
Rank #1 and #2 never faced each other this season
so just cause ur not playing up here, give u the right to brush off "my concern" and give an answer like that.
So just cause we get better rewards cause we choose to be up here, gives u the right to judge?
Those rewards arent handed for free, alot of alliances push hard and play for the win.
I have afew buddies who missed 1 and even 2 in platinum wars because of matchmaking, and that completely threw off there season,
Some even started bad start in the season and got wins in wars 7th,8th,9th war to climb up and had a rough start.
then all of a sudden kabam says, thanks for fighting war and clmbing but thats not gona count to the season!
All kabam said is that they just get items back they used?
How does kabam fix that?
How does kabam fix Aq when rewards already was released?
We are top 10 in aq, we was rank 8th the week prior and because of this week on the first day of aq the emergency maintanance screwed us over and ended up 30+ aq rank?
Are we gona get our top 10 aq rank rewards as compensation?
but that doesnt concearn u cause, we are "just gona whip out our wallet"
So I don’t understand the prolonging war season rewards to later on this week/early next week. People want to move to different alliances based on what they want to do for AQ either go up, go down, retire etc.
It’s not fair on either people or alliances that they have to go through another whole set of AQ due to the delay on war season rewards keeping everyone locked in, which is also affecting recruiting etc.
again its only 6 wars because of what happened, same way that happened to aq, both was cut short, both had consequences in the top.
we havent yet to have that happened, As you win more, there are higher chances of war rating climbing up. and being paired with higher war rating allaince.
The pool for T1 allaince is very small, less than 15 are in tier 1.
again ur speculating a possibility that hasnt happen, but this possibility happened, and it was 6 wars,
thats why i am addressing it, thats why 6 wars to determine top 3 in master is something that needs to be address and known.
especially this season when #1 and #2 did not face each this season. Let alone #3 and #4 havent faced each other.
and #2 didnt face any of the top5 aliance war
again there are also allainces who address this kind of concearn
Brian Grant also addressed how his allaince kept on running to kenob
#2 spot... 9322 below
Afther 6 wars we were 2nd, same afther 9 wars. we will have been 2nd at the end? I do not know, neither you can tell if we have been or not been. If you want to affirm something different you are not objective. If you are not objective you're just pointing the finger at 9322 because, in your opinion, are responsible for taking something away from you.
It seems to me that you are simply crying about rewards: you want the of second place rewards and you are accusing us of having taken them away. what a great thesis you have!
If you have problems with this system, go here:
https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/categories/suggestion
and explain your reasons. I bet not all player like the system as it is now, I even bet that more players that you can suspect will trade a 12 wars system for a 6 wars system. Btw go there and help the game with your suggestions instead of crying and ranting at 9322.
Other wise, If you really think 9322 are responsable of any action that damaged your ally go there:
