Wow, talk about trash calendar. Gold crystals, energy, solo crystal shards and some 5k health potions... I know I shouldn’t complain about free stuff but it feels like everyone has been given the conqueror version of the calendar rather than there being different progression based calendars.
Even upgrading the solo’s to 4* shards would have been ok as I’m struggling for iso but solo crystal shards??!?
Well guess it’s 2020 so we should have expected to get screwed over. Perfect way to end a year to forget, with a calendar to forget 🤦♂️
Has the person who usually says, "just because they gave you something last year does not guarantee that you will get something better this year. They are not related and are independent events." come and gone already? I am waiting for him to comment.
Till now we have had: 1. It's free stuff stop complaining 2. Don't be greedy, kabam has been great lately 3. I just don't like epoch shards, but solo Crystal shards are awesome! 4. GGCs are too OP so it's balanced.
So yeah you're in before the exclusivity guy comes along
If you're going to quote me, do it accurately. I said I had an issue with Epoch. I didn't say Solo Crystals were awesome. I'm just not bothered by them.
Right so the correction would be "I don't like epoch shards, but I'm indifferent about solo crystal shards, so this calendar doesn't bug me"
🤡🤡
You're still adding your own interpretation to what I said.
Caliver players: Treat us better man, we need resources to rank up to get Thronebreaker. Stop giving us joke offers and stuff
Kabam: everyone is getting proven offers now.
The calender 2020 deserved
You think they were going to give people a T5CC in the Calendar?
I don’t think that’s what anyone rational is suggesting. However, they removed the 4* challenge objective that awarded a 10% T5c crystal, and there’s been significant speculation some part of the gift involves T5c shards. Not unreasonable, especially since mods responded to the 4* challenge queries by claiming to be checking on it and it’s been asked about time and again.

Oh, I get the connection. I speculated the same. I was wrong. I guessed it might be because of the same reason, but let's be honest. The Holiday Calendar isn't about to get people to TB. In fact, ever since the introduction of the Title, people have wanted nothing but T5CCs. Only, they're THE most rare Resource in the game. Which means they're not going to fall from the sky. The OP implied Cav Players wanted Resources to get them to TB. That's not all going to happen from logging on.

Preferably literally anything but solo shards?
Meh. Free is free. I just don't want Epoch Shards. The gift of RNG with a large possibility of something useless for me.
Meh for solo shards but don't want epoch shards? But then again free is free???!!
I'm honestly not bothered by anything other than Epoch. I hate the bloody things. That entire experience was a disappointment for me. The last thing I want to do is wait to open another just to pull another 3*. I would much rather have Shards I can use, like 5* or 6*.
You're not bothered by the solo shards? The epoch shards were always gonna have RNG. You've been the biggest advocate for it saying it's how the game it. Now it screws you and you have an issue with the epoch shards? If you don't see the actual problem in giving us solo shards, there's nothing further to be said
Tell me where I can use my 14 or 15 3* Dups.
Assuming a few of those 3* are already max sig, that would be 1000+ four star shards and quite a few 5k iso bricks. I would much rather have those than a handful of useless 40% experience boosts
Last year, cavs got a generic 5* awakening gem as a gift (which were way rarer back then than they are now), and the calendar was lightyears ahead of this one. No way is the gift good enough to warrant this kinda downgrade
Look at the previous year calendars, the corners have some decorations to show its a special calendar. They didn't add it to this year. They know it is not special.
What I find humorous is that whoever is low man on the totem pole for the holidays has the clearance to merge threads, but not comment. My take on it, is the solo crystals are supposed to be 5 star shards. I bet we get clarification on the bug tomorrow after 10am PST

Watch the Christmas gift be worse than last year lol... probably the cav and uncollected players will get the same things, and it’ll be less than a fourth of the value of what thronebreakers get...
Long story short: just in the last month or so. Cav cyber weekend. Strike one. This calendar. Strike two. Will there be a strike 3 by the end of the year?
Long story: By each passing day I feel that the return of investment in this game keeps falling more and more. Let me just showcase what i mean. For context, i am a mid tier player, cav, got about 15 6*, about 12 max 5*, and on my way to thronebreaker (can’t really get the motivation to get it, even though it should be fairly easy with my roster).
Now, getting back. Imagine that you fight your way through countless fights during the monthly eq, side quests, story. You get some shards and finally have enough to open a 6*. Guess what, a rhino, an ironman, king groot, etc. This makes you think. Why bother going through the tedious and more often than not, frustrating fights? In all honesty regardless of what 5* I get, I aint that excited. So that leaves the 6*, where you get (me at least), more often than not, crappy champions which generates frustration. This frustration keep accumulating.
So, you hope that being an awful year (FK 2020!) you might get some superficial accomplishment through a game (be it mobile, console, pc). Most of us here choose mobile for the sheer convenience of playing whenever. Said easy accomplishment come in this game through either free stuff or awesome rewards for hard content. The hard content, not only is not fun to play, but as I said before, the rewards are rng, and more often than not, ****.
I know it’s rather pathetic expecting a game to raise your spirits, but i think i am not the only one who feels somewhat of a reward when you get something nice in this game. (Understand that this game is important for me in the way a mobile game should be - if i take a long dump, or have some dead times at work, or just being bored at home, i play it, otherwise, life comes first).
I had high hopes for cyber weekend. That was a joke for cavaliers. I considered it an insult to us the players that keep this game going. I mean, i want to give you money, but only if i consider it worth it. For what they offer, i said pas (for most of it). Let’s call it strike 1.
Didn’t really have the time for the game in the past few weeks, so I wasn’t really expecting the calendar (so take into account i had absolutely no expectations for this), but then i saw it. I understand that you don’t want to mess the economy of the game by giving away tier 5 cc selectors and dozens of t2a, but gimme a break. This calendar is beyond a joke. It’s insulting by the simple fact that you think that we should be grateful you give us something. Think about the people that WASTE hours each day on this game. I know that you don’t care about their time wasting, i mean, you count on that, and on them being greedy and gamble away their money on some polygons and worthless stuff. But, give us some rewards for our time and money spent, I mean, you cahrge 100$ for 3000 units, which doesn’t really get you too much. Just for comparison, i got 5 triple A games on ps 4 now through their end of year sale, a new synthetic christmas tree and some decorations. This should be really putting things into perspective. So yeah, if i spend (and i did) hundreds of dollars in a mobile game, you bet your a** i want to feel good about it. Not occasionally, but everytime i play it! I already see the snowflakes coming at me and telling me about the free to play players, and how any little thing helps them out and how they are grateful - kaban doesn’t care about you, i mean they care in the ideea that you spread info and laud the game hoping some guy with gambling problems finds this game and wastes thousands of $ on it - a cheap marketing scheme. Kabam cares about us, the ones that pay their devs salaries, the ones that generate them profits. I get it, it’s a business, and as a business, you should get as much reward as poasible with as little effort put it. I guees that’s why such an insult of calendar comes out. So this is strike 2.
Now i am waiting for strike 3, and after 4 years of playing and giving them hundreds of dollars, i can wholeheartedly leave this behind.
I am not an attention wh*** and i know that me quiting doesn’t really count, but kabam, from me personally this is the last chance i am giving you. I supported the game through the years (not by much, but way more than you deserve for the effprt put it), and if you don’t see the purpose of considerig every PAYING customer as a valued asset, your are just running a gambling machine and not a game for marvel enthusiast.
Issue an appology on how disconnected you are from curent in game economy and admit your mistake, add another calendar, and give some gifts fitting for 2020 (being a pandemic and all) and I bet you that the good faith you will get from players will be returned tenfold. The idiot whales will keep spending, we all know that, (you hope for that ;p ) and for them some 5cc wont count, but throw us, the little guys, a bone, and give us something worthwhile.
Ps: do something that gives you pleasure and say pass to everthing and anything that generates frustration (especially if it’s a pass time).
Mcoc players, stay safe and enjoy your holidays as much as possible, in the current context.

This is mine from 10 of that CAVALIER SEXENNIUM CRYSTAL Bought from that shards

I wouldn't even have a doubt but then again gotta have trust in them 🤷♂️

Thank You Kabam for such wonderful gifts
Wasn't expecting this at all
Thank You so much
They didn't add it to this year. They know it is not special.
Look, look, they going to give me more solo crystal shards....yay!!!
reality - kabam will change the solo shards to PHC shards
