Are the Dev's actually aware of the massive complaints?

I see revives are still not in the glory store. Do the Moderators actually forward the near tidal wave if complaints about revives being gone from the milestone rewards and not available in the glory store? And if so are the Dev's just hoping that if they remain silent on the subject we will just go away with our tails between or legs? And don't say you can get them from Maps 1 or 2. Even if you run those maps you still have less than a 20% chance to pull a single player revive (no chance at a team revive) from those crystals. In the current state of the game the only way to reliably get revives is to spend units on them and that is ****.

I got a team revive this week from a Map 2 crystal. so it's better than no chance.

Edit: It's also possible to run an easier map that may not require the use of revives. Just a thought/suggestion.

You shouldn't have to. Parry still not fixed. Post after post after post of people stating that double evade is still broken but your answer is just do map 1. Wow.

(Sigh) I guess KABAM'S new more open and transparent policy should have been called the 'Sounds of Silence' policy.

Yes they're aware of it but they don't seem to care as long as they make money on them from us.

@JSnook If you're lucky enough to get them maybe, but it's only a slight chance to get them and higher alliances really shouldn't have to run maps one and two just for a chance to get some since there's also a chance you could get zero revives from them. Also some players do not want to run maps 1-2 because they want better rewards .

They really need to make them more avaibile to all players and give a sure fire way to get them without having to buy them

Devs are not the issue. The devs don't control the product they make. Business leaders and product managers determine what they make and how they want it to go. And from my sense of how the game has gone lately I bet some are ashamed of the product that was released at times. It looked like a forced release that they may have even known wasn't ready.

The issue is larger than devs. Realizing that will point anger in the right directions.

I don't think any of us really know the heirachy at kabam and how it works. Everyone has a boss. And I have my doubts the devs are operating with totally autonomy. My guess would be it's bean counters calling the shots, or at the very least those calling the shots are listening to them. But I don't want to delve into the realm of speculation as that is against forum rules.

True but i'm actually going by what they've been saying for awhile via the mods of the site and since they basically speak for them I'm pretty sure they have an idea about what's been going on and how are reactions are.

A few times Kabam Mike said basically if you want revives then buy them or run map 1 &2 for them and was kinda rude in the previous forums or this one.

Regardless of whether or not they make calls or have any say in what happens, the devs and mods are the people who the anger is going to be directed at especially if we get the response that we've been getting from them sometimes

Are there gaming rules applied to F2P apps
? Meaning the app must be fully functional in all aspects, and this including getting revives (the topic of this thread).

If so, the Company should be aware to comply?

IGP merely serves to allows faster advancement or to unlock higher levels.

There was a post which has slipped down talking about game design which was very informative for me. I try to find it and post a link.

@ Darkstar4387, that's where I think the disconnect is. Kabam changed the system and availability of the revives. They know this, they are aware. It doesn't matter the player doesn't want to run maps 1-2, that's what they have given us as an option. It's not like some alliances get different options, it's the same for everyone. If you don't want to run map 1 or 2 to get the chance of a 'free' revive, then you are welcome to purchase 1 for units. IT'S YOUR CHOICE.

You can't dictate to Kabam how/where/when they offer things, I would think this would be evident by now.
