This is a game, not a chore .... we don’t play AQ because we “have” to, we play it because we enjoy it.

You’re reasoning seems backwards to me

A disgrace that we get less in compensation then what we would have got if we had been able to run the aq like normal

Actually, 99% of players play it because they have to. I've never seen anyone until now saying they enjoyed AQ.

received 3000 glory instead of regular 4700 ..... i was planning to r5 falcon this week ...but now i will have to wait for another week atleast ....extremely dissapointed...... not okay kabam

For the record, I'm fine with this compensation. I literally didn't do anything and got 3K Glory and some extras. The only valid point I see here is the higher tier players who spent map tickets but only got 30 back.

And the people who used some boosts. Those are the only issues I would look into if I was Kabam. Everyone else can sleep with what they got.

Well, I don’t know what to say to that

AQ is really important to our ally and we genuinely enjoy it

EinfachSo · April 2021

Did you switch or did you leave and not join a new Alliance? Because everyone who is in an alliance gets the compensation. If you are no longer in one, you get nothing.

The_Sentry06 · April 2021

I just don’t get the point that you would have gotten more if you did normal AQ.
Ummmm...ok? You didn't. You literally did nothing.
Kabam run special events from time to time (boss rush, champion challenge). They also offer rewards but aren't run all the time. Do we go crying to Kabam saying that we would have gotten more reward if ran it? Do we ask for compensation on those? No because we didn't anything.

I for one am not going to complain about compensation that was completely free. The only criticism there really should be is that map 7 players missed out on an additional 30 tickets if im not mistaken.

I for one really liked the break, and im sure everyone else didnt really miss AQ. Its not all the glory or the rewards, but last i checked it was also f r e e.

Same,
Time off for an entire week was nice

Come on people, its free stuff. We had a AQ free week, cant we be happy that Kabam decided to give something at all?
I missed t5cc and its kabams fault. Why shouldn't I be upset?

Because you had an entire week off. Technically your effort for rewards was 0. A 10% T5cc won’t kill you especially if you are getting them consistently like it seems.

I guess we see it differently

I shouldn’t lose out cos of a kabam tech difficulty

Also, i was denied a whole week of a really important part of the game experience to me.

Most seem to disagree and think that they were saved the hassle ... that is definitely not how i feel about it

You enjoy aq?

Good for you.

But using the term “we” is very unrealistic because 85% of players i talk to would rather do arena than AQ.

Hi everybody, thank you for the feedback.

A little insight:

This is a universal package that was delivered to all Summoners in an Alliance, and was our way of apologizing for the issues that we had last weekend that caused us not to have AQ for this series. I see a lot of people referencing previous compensation packages for AQ that are based on the previous series performance but aren't taking into account that those are usually given when there is an issue partway through the series or causes Alliances to put in as much effort as they usually do and not be able to perform as well as they should.

Historically, if there is a series of AQ that is skipped, but is planned, there is no compensation because nobody has to play that week. In this case, there was no series but it was unplanned, so we decided that we would like to give a gift to all players as our way of saying sorry for the issues and thanks for your patience. This is not the same situation as we mentioned before, and the packages are not the same as the kind of packages we would give if Players had been giving their all but were unable to perform as well as they would if there were issues.

But once again, thank you for your feedback. We will keep it in mind when deciding on how to deal with future instances like this.

This is exactly why the player base is so frustrated. I normally defend some of the decisions that are made... but this is not the right call here.

The bug in AQ caused us not to be able play AQ for a week. Granted, yes we didn't have too play for a week. But because of the bug we lose out on that account progression. Really disappointed in how this and other things have been handled lately.

Kabam Miike · April 2021

Hi there, the compensation is for any Summoner in an Alliance. If you are not currently in one, you would not have received it. However, if you join another Alliance, you should receive it.

By WE I meant the guys in our allience !! the 85 % u talking about probably dont need an ally

Thecurler · April 2021

I don’t know man. I feel Kabam have lowballed us as per usual.
Glory equivalent to previous weeks AQ and the missed boosts from Alliance Brawl event should have been bare minimum.
As mentioned in previous posts, those who play war are relying on glory to stock up on potions during off season.
We’ve missed out on a big chunk of glory because of your mistakes, not ours.

But you get “time off” from a job ... that YOU get paid for

I obviously am a rare example of someone that Plays the game,daily, for FUN. I pay for that fun too ... if i was to pick one feeling to describe a missing week of AQ , “grateful” would not be it!

It's just sad to see the community so divided.

Valentinos13 · April 2021

For me it was an effortless 5x5 that I didn't do for 4.5k glory, i would prefer to do it than get 3k only

No division here buddy

just expressing my point of view - no problem with others that see it differently... especially when they are as civilised as you

lmao at the disagrees. Yeah it sucks we didnt get our normal aq rewards, with aq i get a lot more glory and stuff as well.

However, we got somethhing totlally free for no effort. We would rather put in the effort, but THAT WAS NOT AN OPTION. Getting free stuff for doing zero effort is good.
Counterpoint:

Stay home for the week and relax. It has to be a week that I choose and not one you choose, and I don't really care about how convenient it is or is not for you. Also, I'll only give you about 35% of your weekly salary to do it.

Enjoy the break!

you always have an option, there and here. Take it or leave it. You dont like the option, maybe dont take it? You can quit the job, maybe you can quit the game as well. If one aq series can trigger you this much, 10% of a t5cc is that integral to your progress to compare it to a job.... that may be a problem.
I refuse to drown myself in negativity to cry for more, and look to the future. I will get my glory from the next series.

Dontsellthem · April 2021

I was upset that we didn’t get out T4 basic and other rank up materials we normally get.

After reading most of these comments....

I have to agree with the “it was free” members.

Fact- you “normally get blah blah, and didn’t get it this time”

Fact- you also didn’t run AQ at all this week.

Fact- we did get something for nothing.

We didn’t miss out on a week of AQ- it just got pushed up by a week.

That’s how I look at it.

Qacob · April 2021

For once I'm completely with kabam on this one. Everyone missed out on AQ, so yes it is completely fair as no one is getting an advantage over each other. If 50% of alliances had AQ and the other 50% didn't then that would be a different story. But everyone got the same rewards for doing absolutely nothing, so please stop whining and whinging, the world isnt about to end.
