Guys maybe they did test it and they had all the same trouble we’re having.
With that being said they decided “sweet this is perfect if they want to 100% they will need to use all 15 items and all of them will be the higher priced Aw boosts and potions” Perfect!
All jokes aside. Some of the nodes aren’t bad, they are do-able. Problem here is they are completely overshadowed, eclipse, eaten up by the horrible nodes that around the decent ones. Creativity was at the max when you made these but common sense apparently wasn’t. No disrespect with the last statement it’s just it seems that way with how these nodes were paired. I have said it before, it’s like your devs don’t play the game at all, or are in such a low tiered alliance or no alliance at all they are disconnected from where the majority of players are.
I love this game, I play it too much, I play with my real life best friend, another real life friends and I’ve made a bunch of out of state and out of country friends here, I’m very afraid of the future of this game right now.
I have been reading through the comments here and am seeing SO MANY posts about how the nodes look horrible and too difficult. You rolled them out anyways and now look where we are. YOU HAD THE FEEDBACK RIGHT HERE THE WHOLE TIME. This AW season is busted. It was mentioned that there was a lot of feedback to go through so some cpmments may have slipped through the cracks... I call major BS.
The answer is to make AW heals and revives free and crank up the number of times a node can be defended for points. Diversity caused a lot of the current problems. While we don't just want to see 10 Korgs, Dominos, Dooms, and Annihilii every war, they put in a mechanic to encourage diversity in a lazy way. Keeping it as a tie breaker for top tiers is fine, but actual diversity needs to be encouraged by rotating node buffs that specifically target individual defenders.
For example, take a node that gives +100% attack and health, +75% health and psychic thorns normally. Any champ placed there gets those bonuses. But, if you place Bishop, Red Hulk or Ultron, the node increases those champs health by another 100% and adds heal block on contact. The actual node details would need to be worked out, but you get the idea.
tactics are inherently flawed. You can't promote diversity when you, by definition, have a tactic that isolates a sub-set of champs and give them some kind of advantage. That's actually the opposite of promoting diversity.
A lot of great feedback here, but I'm clearing out a lot of posts that did not follow the guidelines for posting in here.
As a reminder, in this thread, we're trying to keep feedback concentrated and just about Node Combinations. No replying to each other's posts, and no editorialization. If you have other comments or complaints about Alliance Wars, please put that in the Alliance War Season 19 Discussion thread.
If you post was deleted, it is because it did not follow the guidelines outlined in the Original post, so please do not repost it in here.
If your aim was to demoralized your customers playing this free-2-play game, even willing to pay from time to time, you hit the mark, right in the middle !
Ans as if it was not enough, @Kabam Miike just deleted tons of comments that could have help with all this mess around the poor design of the new AW map ! Yes deleted ! Not transferred to another thread, but purely and simply deleted, as if all the remarks, complaints, suggestions were so stupid they didn’t even need Kabam’s attention ! 👍
I would just re post somewhere else. The guidelines were clearly stated and I think a lot of people posted unsure of whether or not it was gonna get deleted but did anyways just in case. I got a message for mine but I think they get the point so I'm not really worried anymore. I know Kabam will fix it. This happens every so often (probably more than less). But it just sucks that the new stuff didn't really work out as hoped.

They stated flat out what sort of posts they wanted in that thread and people still went in there **** about every thing else they felt like.
In addition to a lot of the specific node complaints above, I will say that the overall cumulative effect of having so many difficult node/defender combinations is a problem for mental load and quality of life.
Exploring (or even clearing) the map will require an insane level of planning by leadership, not only assigning paths but also assigning miniboss and boss encounters. Those assignments may have to change every day based on the defenders that get placed, particularly for alliances with players that don’t have all the possible counters for all the possible node/defender combinations on their path. AQ exacerbates the problem, because some of those paths are already super specific. I guess the top alliance dole out assignments like that. But we aren’t all willing/able to make that sort of time investment.
Also because node 23 and various miniboss fights require such specific counters, it puts a ton of pressure on whoever was assigned those fights. They may need to boost to the gills and use 15 items to clear a choke point so they don’t let down the alliance. Help from other allies may not be available because they had to bring extremely specific counters for their own assigned fights.
There should be a balance between something casual and something intensely competitive. Top alliances may need this sort of headache to keep competition fresh. P4 and below really don’t. For alliances outside the top 200 I think the balance has been shifted waaaaay to much in favor of intensity.

Yes.
even for alliances in P2-P1 ! we can't afford to spend money in this game just to stay in P2-P1. Your skill and knowledge of the game should be the first thing needed to help people go and stay in platinum.
Money should only be take into account if you're not skill enough for the whole season or if you want to go against master alliances where all the spenders are. But with this new AW design, the risk is either to have to spend more just to keep your place in the leaderboard (not everyone can afford that) or demoralized whole alliances of good players from even going to war.

By simply deleting the posts they are just saying : "your will/idea/comment are not even worth our attention !"
As usual Kabam's communication is one of the poorest in all the free to play games. Too bad as their will to show us their roadmap was a great idea.

Looks like you are still kabsms, customer... You even still care enough and are dedicated enough about the game to be posting on their forums... Guess him deleting the posts did not have the outcome you predicted
the new war map is perfect! the previous one was explored very easily .. kabam, don't listen to those fools who just want everything comfortable .. a and I'm grade 2 haha

The instructions were plain and simpleZ Not exactly hard to follow. They said “Post only useful information” Even gave the criteria in which information would be considered useful.
Then they said “all other posts will be deleted” They literally said here are the guidelines, follow them or this will happen.
Where is the issue? I used to run a cafe. I would tell my customers to line up to the left to order. If they lined up to the right they would not be served. There were big signs saying “order here” If the customer decided to line up under the “collect here” sign, thats not my fault they stand there and never get served. If they choose to walk out because they were waiting and never got served what can i do.....
the new war map is perfect! the previous one was explored very easily .. kabam, don't listen to those fools who just want everything comfortable .. a and I'm grade 2 haha
i don't think people want everything comfortable, but something that is challenging, fun and where you can do a full season (12 wars) without having to use every units you earn (with versus or by buying an odin) in order to finish a map.
We have the labyrinth or the Abyss if we want to spend units on. Even Act 6 if you don't want to wait for its nerf
Ok @Kabam Miike you deleted my post in other thread on aw nodes stating it wasn’t about aw nodes....tho it actually is....so I put it here
You guys have said you nerfing pain points in act 6....which 99% of these are IN FACT THE NODES....so why not wait till you nerf act 6 before you add more act 6 nodes to aw or bring out cavalier difficulty....cause all you going to have to do is nerf aw and cavalier difficulty....
Start thinking logically instead of solo on cash. As an end game player myself yes we want new content. But we want content that works fight, is bug free and is fun. That’s not the case here

I bet you talked to them to explain (again) and finally took their order when they went on the left
Yes there were instructions from Kabam and yes, as always, you will find people that will not, consciously or not, follow them to the letter. but as these people are Kabam's customer, the minimum would have been to transfer the comments in this thread instead of simply deleting them. Kabam is notorious for its lack of communication notably when they silently nerf some champions like Archangel neurotoxin stun, Drax ability to counter Mordo. They make changes without warning and communicate only if someone notice the change. something that inevitably arrive. That lack of communication participate and even initiate the frustration of a lot of people in this game. and it's sad because when Kabam take time to explain things before acting, the roadmap for example, people are simply happy. summoners were worried about the futur of MCOC with the Book 2 => Kabam listen and give us the road map for the rest of the year Kabam changes some mini boss in AQ but made Hyperion a little bit too powerful => they listen, communicate check their data and act accordingly

People who had their posts deleted are free to get in the right line (post in this thread) and have their order taken.
Isn't the problem in NODE, not in the development system? Apparently this AW feels untested. Or are you doing a field test with your customer's unit? Either way, it doesn't feel good to the customer.

i am not going to write down their order and then pick them up and carry them over to the correct line and process it there. they are going to have to go over there and restate their order from the start.
just as it is up to you to go to the correct thread and retype your comment. not expect kabam to move it for you.
don't go around life expecting others to fix your mistakes. fix your own mistakes and look after yourself. #stopbeingentitled
Don’t know why people are assuming Kabam didn’t think of node interactions. Cold turkey + Hazard Shift is the typical counter to the counter. Very reminiscent of Act 6. Oh you brought a poison immune that has fury as a counter to sinister? Here is EMP mod so you still take damage

Of course they knew what the interactions and pain points would be. I find it peculiar that so many hold the belief a multi million dollar company don't understand their own game.
Guys maybe they did test it and they had all the same trouble we’re having.
With that being said they decided “sweet this is perfect if they want to 100% they will need to use all 15 items and all of them will be the higher priced Aw boosts and potions” Perfect!
They have said previously that they do no want us to 100% the map. It is not a surprise

All jokes aside. Some of the nodes aren’t bad, they are do-able. Problem here is they are completely overshadowed, eclipse, eaten up by the horrible nodes that around the decent ones. Creativity was at the max when you made these but common sense apparently wasn’t. No disrespect with the last statement it’s just it seems that way with how these nodes were paired. I have said it before, it’s like your devs don’t play the game at all, or are in such a low tiered alliance or no alliance at all they are disconnected from where the majority of players are.
I love this game, I play it too much, I play with my real life best friend, another real life friends and I’ve made a bunch of out of state and out of country friends here, I’m very afraid of the future of this game right now.
For example, take a node that gives +100% attack and health, +75% health and psychic thorns normally. Any champ placed there gets those bonuses. But, if you place Bishop, Red Hulk or Ultron, the node increases those champs health by another 100% and adds heal block on contact. The actual node details would need to be worked out, but you get the idea.
If your aim was to demoralized your customers playing this free-2-play game, even willing to pay from time to time, you hit the mark, right in the middle !
Ans as if it was not enough, @Kabam Miike just deleted tons of comments that could have help with all this mess around the poor design of the new AW map !
Yes deleted ! Not transferred to another thread, but purely and simply deleted, as if all the remarks, complaints, suggestions were so stupid they didn’t even need Kabam’s attention ! 👍
Exploring (or even clearing) the map will require an insane level of planning by leadership, not only assigning paths but also assigning miniboss and boss encounters. Those assignments may have to change every day based on the defenders that get placed, particularly for alliances with players that don’t have all the possible counters for all the possible node/defender combinations on their path. AQ exacerbates the problem, because some of those paths are already super specific. I guess the top alliance dole out assignments like that. But we aren’t all willing/able to make that sort of time investment.
Also because node 23 and various miniboss fights require such specific counters, it puts a ton of pressure on whoever was assigned those fights. They may need to boost to the gills and use 15 items to clear a choke point so they don’t let down the alliance. Help from other allies may not be available because they had to bring extremely specific counters for their own assigned fights.
There should be a balance between something casual and something intensely competitive. Top alliances may need this sort of headache to keep competition fresh. P4 and below really don’t. For alliances outside the top 200 I think the balance has been shifted waaaaay to much in favor of intensity.
Yes.
Your skill and knowledge of the game should be the first thing needed to help people go and stay in platinum.
Money should only be take into account if you're not skill enough for the whole season or if you want to go against master alliances where all the spenders are.
But with this new AW design, the risk is either to have to spend more just to keep your place in the leaderboard (not everyone can afford that) or demoralized whole alliances of good players from even going to war.
By simply deleting the posts they are just saying : "your will/idea/comment are not even worth our attention !"
As usual Kabam's communication is one of the poorest in all the free to play games. Too bad as their will to show us their roadmap was a great idea.
I bet you don't have many customers
The instructions were plain and simpleZ
Not exactly hard to follow.
They said
“Post only useful information”
Even gave the criteria in which information would be considered useful.
Then they said “all other posts will be deleted”
They literally said here are the guidelines, follow them or this will happen.
Where is the issue?
I used to run a cafe.
I would tell my customers to line up to the left to order.
If they lined up to the right they would not be served.
There were big signs saying “order here”
If the customer decided to line up under the “collect here” sign, thats not my fault they stand there and never get served.
If they choose to walk out because they were waiting and never got served what can i do.....
We have the labyrinth or the Abyss if we want to spend units on. Even Act 6 if you don't want to wait for its nerf
You guys have said you nerfing pain points in act 6....which 99% of these are IN FACT THE NODES....so why not wait till you nerf act 6 before you add more act 6 nodes to aw or bring out cavalier difficulty....cause all you going to have to do is nerf aw and cavalier difficulty....
Start thinking logically instead of solo on cash. As an end game player myself yes we want new content. But we want content that works fight, is bug free and is fun. That’s not the case here
I bet you talked to them to explain (again) and finally took their order when they went on the left
Yes there were instructions from Kabam and yes, as always, you will find people that will not, consciously or not, follow them to the letter. but as these people are Kabam's customer, the minimum would have been to transfer the comments in this thread instead of simply deleting them.
Kabam is notorious for its lack of communication notably when they silently nerf some champions like Archangel neurotoxin stun, Drax ability to counter Mordo.
They make changes without warning and communicate only if someone notice the change. something that inevitably arrive.
That lack of communication participate and even initiate the frustration of a lot of people in this game. and it's sad because when Kabam take time to explain things before acting, the roadmap for example, people are simply happy.
summoners were worried about the futur of MCOC with the Book 2 => Kabam listen and give us the road map for the rest of the year
Kabam changes some mini boss in AQ but made Hyperion a little bit too powerful => they listen, communicate check their data and act accordingly
Apparently this AW feels untested.
Or are you doing a field test with your customer's unit?
Either way, it doesn't feel good to the customer.
and they also commented to say "WE DELETED MANY POSTS"
its really not hard to follow simple instructions.
if you can't follow simple instructions then there is no helping you.
there really is no helping stupid.
they are going to have to go over there and restate their order from the start.
just as it is up to you to go to the correct thread and retype your comment. not expect kabam to move it for you.

fix your own mistakes and look after yourself.
