I've been having the same trouble for weeks with my champs triggering random heavies. That bug alone has me spending about $10/week and between 600-1200 in glory/week to b able to complete map5 all 5 days. This issue has very noticeably affected my growth. They replied and acknowledged and as of yesterday it seems like it may be fixed, but I can't get back the 6-10 t4 cats I'm out because I had to put all my resources into potions.. I have 15 r4 toons. T4's have never been more valuable to me than they are right now. If I'd have stuck with map 3 I'd probably be better off right now....

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.

Is it possible that the community may be missing the thought that these aren't considered "bugs" by kabam. If they are intended or acceptable in their eyes then you should never expect a response.

Silence speaks too.

Bug fixes at a level where I expected nothing and I'm still down.

Except they've spoken about a number of them and admitted that they were bugs or issues that were being " fixed" or have been " fixed " or being "investigated" but some still persist despite them saying these.

I don't know what's been going on with them but it seems like every since netmarble took over and ever since transformers forged to fight came out they've been less about bug fixes and more about generating revenue and disregarding us and our opinions and information we supply them.

What happened to my post?

Anyway except they've already spoken out and admitted that a lot of these were bugs and issues have been "fixed", or are being " fixed" or that they were or are " under investigation" yet some of the issues persist despite us giving them all kinds information about them so it seems like they're just disregarding everything we give them

I don't know exactly what's going on with them but it seems like every since kabam got taken over by netmarble and the release of transformers forged to fight they've been less about bug fixing, less about communication, and more about generating revenue.

There's been a number of things that makes it seem like they don't care about the game or us, if they actually took our inputs and information fixed their game, stabilized the servers , cut down the prices on their over blown offers they would repair their damaged reputation with us.

Qwerty

when do we get info on the new node buffs? this week break would be a perfect time for us to have time to understand the map better before aw starts.

Is Dormammu's regen broken? Hasn't seemed to be working properly since updating

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?

It's downright absurd that this bug hasn't been fixed for this long.

Juggerneyks

guys does anyone else hate this new menu tab they added to view nodes and players in game, 1st of all we have to press 2 buttons to do what we used to be able to do in 1 button ( WHY JUST WHY DOES THAT MAKE SENSE) . 2nd of all its really buggy, every-time i exit a fight it is tabbed in blocking some of my screen. it just seems to always want to be tabbed in and that is annoying as hell, ive even seen a shadow of the tab appear on the far right of the screen well im in a fight.

Kabam can't even respond here about Vision and others bugs, it's a true shame.
Change is necessary..

It's been said he is on track to be fixed in 15.1. So maybe 2 weeks from now.

Amazingly, they couldn't even provide us with an estimated date or timeframe that it would be fixed.

Just like bases, just like the fix for the AI evade-attack bug that's existed for over a year....
the fixes are "coming soon".

Jon8299

They always release a patch soon after a major update. It's like they approve the major update even though it's only 80% good and then work on the patch soon after.

They did tell a timeline for bases

They said they scrapped it

And they left the page or whatnot as a joke

I personally would like to know why there's still a "base" tab in alliances. That feature has been coming soon since before I started playing. Since then arenas have been revamped, massive character nurfs and changes to the entire mastery system were made and now alliance wars are being recreated and you're even rolling out 6* champions.

Bigger maps with new nodes sounds like fun, until we start fighting on new nodes that probably give Magik and juggs extendeded character specific buffs, spideys with bleed/poison and debuff resistences and nc's with health Regen.

Why do we need 6* champions exactly? So you can increase the attack and health values of fix it, IP, collossus, kk and pillow fists and other utterly boring and useless champs? Longer fights just means these bugs are going to shine brighter and brighter until you guys literally can't even hope to ever review them all.

Why not actually finish whatever idea that was so significant that it's been left sitting on the alliance user interface since the game basically started? New types of game play are intriguing. I want my own base. Or even an alliance base thats separate from wars. It's hard enough to get an entire alliance interested in wars when 4 and 5* shards just mean a microscopic chance at increasing sig levels on one of the champs they already have and use. Meanwhile tier 4 class catalysts take months to build and prevent actually development.

Last side note I haven't seen mentioned, that's most definitely a bug. The Hood's heavy attack description is incorrect. It refreshes staggers, hexes, shock and bleed effects. However it does not refresh any form of stun you can inflict on the opponent. I can go make a video or take screen shots right now to back this. It takes 2 seconds.

Sorry for the long post but this thread hits almost every major error in common sense and logic that we get to put up with. Meanwhile they're banning accounts and deleting people's cats/champs because it's "too difficult to figure out which things were earned normally and which were obtained through exploiting a glitch" which was entirely fair game. You aren't psychics and can't assume intent like that. I could have been not paying attention and just mashing buttons out of boredom for all you know. You can't leave us with bugs that hinder us and shun us for bugs that benefit us. It's morally disgusting.

So to sum it up:
just stop with new anything. Stop making events if you have to. Stop bringing in new characters that you haven't finished programming. Shut the game down for a week, idc just fix the proven bugs and then focus on actually following through with in game content that's been "coming soon" since 2016.

And fix the hoods heavy so it actually works as described. I didn't level him up 100 times just to discover the falsely advertised abilites hiding in the essay of a description of his passives and specials.

while the map 6 tier 2 alpha cat frags is cool, overall a bad change imo due to you removing t4b frags from both map 5 and map 6 conqueror rewards

SCZ

What was thinking on replacing t4b frags with t4c? Basics are generally more in demand and desired than class cats at this point.

Introducing! The battle of resources! The reported bugs are still there milking players with potions and revives,

That's dumb. Every map needs to have T4B fragments as an extra. Hell, you can take those T4C fragment crystals back for all I care just to have T4B

Vdh2008

Between Glory store, rank rewards, monthly quest, and arena, you can get about 4 or more T4B per week. I for one am glad to see T4C shards in conq rewards.
