Just 3 bug fixes? Are you really being serious ? There are so many bugs that you know of and your doing nothing? You need to get a grip and listen to the stuff people are reporting.
I doubt I will get a reply from @Kabam Miike as this is an answer you don't want to answer.

Eb0ny-O-M4w

Will the power burn/steal get fixed?
And what about Archangel passive to be immune to ability accuracy decreasers?

Question you don't want to answer*

Kdog76

I think we all get the changes...at least the regulars on the forum do. Just disappointed in the apparent disregard of player feedback. Between this and 6* champs it is hard to get excited.

Darkstar4387

That's it for bug fixes, LMAO seriously what about all the bugs and issues that you been promising to fix for the past few months, what about all of those bugs and issues that are being " investigated " that we constantly provide reports about, images and videos about are you all serisiouly going to ignore it all.

Like the ai reaction and recovery speed which allows the to block and respond much more quickly than us, and even after taking a special imediently get up and pressure you.

How about all the control issues that report on, like being unable to block at all, having blocks drop, them charging foward, fighting with the ai when auto play is off over control of your champions, firing off random attacks.

What all inputs not regeristing which just makes you a punching bag, or having your champ just sit there not moving or just sit trying to block, what about them not firing off their specials and doing the block mumbo, what about regular, power attacks and specials doing nothing to enemy.

What about specials just miss firing or dealing no damage, what about missing hits, what about power attacks not working or being interrupted is blocked when they connect, what the ai hitting you when you're in evade, what about all the pi spikes or drops, what about all the issues with blocking and parry that you promised to fix.

What about all the issues with signature abilities and their specials not working properly, what about all the champions specific issues, what about all the device specific issues, or issues that affect android and or iOS users.

What about all the connection issues when we have full bars, what about that stupid crash recovery system that takes our health because of calls or disconnections, what about the lag or latency that screws up our game.

To name some of them, are you seriously going to leave all these unfixed, or in addressed in favor of sweeping changes that benefit you guys instead of us.

Before you make changes, before you add 6* , before anything you should squash all these bugs and issues before the player base revolts on you.

madmax

And to top it all off and really kick us in the nuts your making lol easier, what about all the people that have done a run/ completed it ? Where is the justice in that? No talk of the players that have done this to further there accounts at a very expensive cost.
Your changing so much now and we have put so much time and effort in to our accounts for you to devalue what we've done and no concern from you what so ever.
Even your so called olive branches have thorns, I mean the free Aq maps !! Really the truth is no aw no loyalty therefor no map 4,5,6 so no financial gain for you.
the "halls of healing"?? That doesn't replace the level 4 healths I had to use for, no parry,no block, no double evade, the standing still and various others, instead of replacing them we have to earn them doing quests along with act 5, monthly quest, daily cat arenas and sticking a broom up our arses so we can sweep the floor at the same time.
Totally underhanded AGAIN

TheBaldAvenger

Seems a few of the bug fixes are missing. There was more posted on the blog last week than in the thread

Timone147

This is a little bit of a letdown. Think many were hoping for some major bug fixes along with the AW

kimd of a stupid question but with the new wars how many people will be in each battle group? I'm trying to plan ahead for when it goes live

As far as I know, same amount of Players as the current one.

Vdh2008

Uhhhh... no word on Vision fixes? I paid the equivalent of over $200 CAD for this champ and I can't use him reliably. What the !$&@ is going on here?

First off, Age of Ultron Vision should be fixed immediately!
Kabam wasted zero days fixing Unstoppable Colossuss in LOL, matter of fact, the Devs worked Saturday/Sunday to fix!
Where are we at with AOU Vision, 2+ months?
A lot of people depend on AOU Vision for All or Nothing Nodes as they did not purchase OG Vision.
And please don't give us the line about, they're are other power drain champs (which people may or may not have) people need AOU Vision for Caltrops and other nodes.
Truly~truly unacceptable!

@Kabam Miike
@Ad0ra_
@Kabam Wolf
@Kabam Zibiit
@Kabam Vydious

Please reply with some sort of update, the community deserves something seeing how there's no mention of it in V15.0

Regards,
T.R. Havoc

There are no bug fixes because they are intentional and thus not bugs. We can move on now.

OG Vision is impacted with this bug too, and many many people did purchase that champ with REAL $$$. This is totally unacceptable.

Kocheese

History from kabam has shown it's going to be another disaster, like it usually is. They will have to update it again because of the community outrage. War is no longer war, it should be called ITEM USE 2.0. what's the point of war now. Took all the skill and fun out. Another sad day in the abismal history of kabam. They just ignore everything about the increased bugs day 4/5 of AQ ironically and war, higher tiers

yea where did you read that? Please elaborate?

Mcord11758

I have to ask at this point because I just had the lovely experience of fighting dormanu in aq. Are there any game improvements under the hood? Performance comes and goes but when it goes it's just horrible. Parry stops, champs trigger heavy attack out of no where, etc. You can't possibly be putting out a major update while ignoring this, can you?

Leepower12

Is the lagging/getting kick out going to stop

Kocheese

Keep the thread going. This is the most important issue atm. Ultron is.stuck in mud again in aq, double evade broken. And the ai blocks your special now after a combo way more

The only thing in that list I can see relating to supposedly making LoL "easier" is the introduction of T2a fragments in the glory store, which would mean T2as are ever so slightly easier to obtain, meaning getting the materials to R4 a 5* champion for LoL would be easier.

One problem though: That difficulty decrease is so minimal, it is barely going to take any effect. Players will still have to use a ton of units/free crystals to get through LoL, even with a 5* R4.

Mcord11758

Maybe the thought is lol will be easier due to using a 6*

Skullmanic

Forgot about fixing this game let's just come out with a 6star and piss everyone off "the kaboom way"

lesterjoao

I just bought the t2 alpha fragments from glory store but they didnt get added to my existing fragments....anyone facing similar issue????

GET RID OF LOCKOUTS!!!
I understand why lockouts were initially started. Due to the tier system in AQ, there were many individuals and alliances that would switch weekly to get rewards, causing a unfair advantage and gains. It made sense to implement lockouts to create stability within alliances and create more parity. However, you kept the lockouts in season 4 despite changing the weekly, tiered format. This has now put too much power into the hands of the alliances. They can treat members poorly and players feel compelled to stay because they don't want to miss several weeks of rewards due to lockouts and the fear of going somewhere else that actually might be worse. For that matter, alliances can actually kick members mid AQ with no repercussions to the alliance, robbing players of rewards for 2 AQ, since they most likely won't find an alliance prior to the lockout timeframe for the next AQ rewards. Why should this matter to Kabam? Other then the ethics around condoning such behavior on your players, it also hurts your bottom line in the short and long term. Players may become exhausted from this and "take a break", moving to a "rest" alliance where they spend less or, worse, quit altogether. That's lost revenue. Therefore, the lockout system was needed in the previous structure to correct an unfair advantage. However, it should be eliminated in the new system since its not needed and creates a burden on the players that ultimately leads to lost revenue. A response would be appreciated!

This needs it's own thread, that's a very valid point.

Installed 15.0. Then, had to wait over 30 minutes after opening the game, for ANOTHER installation that wouldn't even let me play. Then, first fight of the new Monthly Quest, game crashes and exits the moment the fight ends.

Great work Kabam. Working as intended?
