Seeing how many others have stated they have yet to see one pulled prior to maintenance, I admit it is highly suspicious. I am not saying Kabam did it on purpose, it was most likely a coding error. However, the volume of complaints are too many to simply discredit.
I hope Kabam investigates and explains what was happening.
Could be anything. They could be busy, or they could be verifying Accounts.
Kudos to you for sticking to kabam so damn hard. You truly believe kabam never makes mistakes. and that everything is for the better developement of the game. even though some updates are purely to make money. It has to take some serious strength to stay that loyal that you won't bulge on something thats literally 99.9% chance a mistake. you believe in that 0.01%! Well done sir!
This is the Internet, you're never going to change another person's mind.
When people engage in a discussion and someone addresses what they said, that person responds and that's how a debate takes place. It's not always about dropping a comment and walking away. People discuss things. It's when it becomes a personal attack on someone that it goes south. It's the whole "Players Vs. Kabam" mentality that causes the problem, and anyone that has the benefit of the doubt or isn't overtly against the company is shut down and jumped on. It's just about different points of view and that doesn't have to involve taking sides. It's about different perspectives.
I hope Kabam does provide some kind of answer, and hopefully it's truthful.
When people turn the Thread into personal comments against me when I was not making it personal at all, that is the definition of victimization. Not that I feel like one. My point is that the Thread and the discussion can go on just fine without making it personal.
Kabam does not.foster that mentality. The Players do.
Your missing a point. Something was advertised, but it wasn't possible to get him...Sounds like a scam to me or incompetence. Regardless, they should rectify the situations if they are honest.
WAS OR WASN'T the 5* punisher in the crystal before the maintenance!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, given the parameters you specify the probability is not zero, but it is astronomically low. However, I'm not sure all of these assumptions are correct. I have no data that points to crystal openings being about four to five times higher in the first four days than in the next two weeks, and I don't have data on thirty confirmed 5* Punisher openings.
I'm aware of the two Seatin highlighted in his video. If you can point to 30 of them being reported with reasonable veracity since server maintenance, that would be very statistically suspect. In fact, just seven of them date stamped within 24 hours of server maintenance would fall under the category of extremely unlikely (that is above a million to one odds even using the most favorable assumptions). Ten of them would put the data into the realm of me not believing any assertion that there was no bug without objective proof (that's Powerball territory).
I thought you were going to stop debating this about a 1,000 messages ago!
It seem that any post you just come on a try to shoot it down, I thought there were rules about trolls?
I'm waiting to hear myself, but I'm sure they're aware. They Flag their own Threads, so they can see the activity. It doesn't have to be at the top of the Forum. All we can do is wait to hear back.
Not really, Tech Support Reps have been able to redistribute items that were sold in error, or compensate for missing awards. However, that is a 1-off basis.
This is a much larger issue that impacted thousands of users. So, it is a little more convoluted.
It really depends what the issue was and how it impacted players. Were people supposed to get a 5* but the code gave them a 4*? It is hard to tell on the player side because people opening several 100's of crystals and opening ten at a time and not wait for the spin.
However, we had "glitches" on crystals before where the animation would land on a 4* and the persons award screen showed something different. Kabam refused to compensate these people and claimed it was an animation issue (many threads on that).
Despite @GroundedWisdom and his very optimistic outlook. Kabam is very inconsistent in compensation and slow to address any issue... remember Android-geddon? How long was it for Kabam to come to a decision as to how to compensate for 7-8 hours of Android users? They knew what the issue was and it took almost 3 weeks.
Without the player base applying pressure, they can easily mistaken it for complacency and simply move on (most accidentally). Trust me, I work in a highly client facing industry and worked in support for online technology. With the number of issues that come in on a day to day base, it is easy to lose track of previous replied cases and threads, especially if there are no new updates from the user-base.
We simply cannot allow that "inconvenience", though it is 90% of the time accidental due to the high pace of occurrences.
We are being patient. We are just reminding them that we are eagerly waiting their findings. it may be annoying, but it is an unfortunate necessity due to Kabam's record with glitchs/bugs and slow in response in addressing these issues. If their corporate structure is that bureaucratic as to hold up compensation for 3 weeks on a well known issue, or several months to fix a bug (ahem parry/block) that they acknowledge has issues on several devices, it is obvious that they need to seriously look at how they are doing things.
@Ree is absolutely correct. Had this not been a game with Marvel characters that most people love, most people would have moved on by now. With every update the game has more and more issues. They do solve several issues, but never address ones that are costing players money (which they admit are not intended). Sorry, but it does come off as unethical for a company to address small bugs while letting huge ones that give them an unfair advantage at profitability at the players expense to persist. This comes from someone with a degree in Business Administration that had several courses around corporate ethics.
