I’m going to say this probably get a lot of disagrees. The event is cool and I usually 100% will login everyday. Now this event does screw me when I go on vacation, I’m not going to have access to wifi because I’ll be on a cruise. I’m not paying an absurd amount of money to login and not disconnect from everyday life. My wife is super chill about how much I play the game but on vacation I will not take advantage of that she gets all my attention. When I stop at the cities (it’s an Alaskan cruise) I will have access so when I’m pooping I’ll do it but there are 3 sea days where we will be going through glaciers. That’s where I would need grace days. So the event is cool, but not giving grace periods without paying kinda sucks.

You'd think there'd be free WiFi with how much cruises cost lol.

Consider the 5 bucks for a booster to be holiday expenses 🤣
Every other year kabam have gave a grace period as they know people go on vacation and may not be able to log in everyday. Now this year those people are penalized for spending quality time with their family.

The cruise sounds awesome. Enjoy the vacation. I know people seem to think they need to do everything 100%, but it's really fine if you miss out on some stuff in game. Ultimately, its a game and missing out on 1 day is not going to have that much of an impact in the game in the long run and zero impact in real life.

You have the right idea. Missing one or two or even three days on the event won't affect you as much as you think it will.

You spend more time going to the washroom in the run of a day. Just saying.

Not everybody has internet access on vacation. Your point about bathroom breaks is irrelevant. Thanks for contributing nothing to the conversation
I just liked the idea of a summoner appreciation and I don’t think they should’ve replaced it with yet another subscription/ pass which intends to make money which replaced a nice thing Kabam did for the players. It’s not about the rewards it’s about the attitude that KABAM have to remove appreciation for the players and replace it with a subscription/ pass
I don't know how many times people need to say this but this is just an event. The S.A event has been in August more often than it has been in July.
We've only had 2 times where it was a 90 calendar. Everytime before that, it was a 7 day event.
Stop thinking they are replacing something.
They ARE replacing something, the rewards are 99% the same as last years SA calendar. Just because they change the name of the event doesn't mean you have to wipe your memory clean of previous events.
The bottom line is this event serves as a replacement of the calendar, and has introduced monetization and removed grace days. Kabam has every right to do that if they so choose, and players have every right to not be happy about it.
They may have replaced a 90 day calendar, but doesn't mean it's replaced the S.A event. Since that event has taken many forms over the last 6 years, it's still possible we get something else in the more traditional month of August.
Well, sure, but why does the name matter? It doesn't change how people are going to feel about added monetization and removal of grace days.
The way I look at this event is that it's just like any other event. The SoP is timed. There aren't any grace days for that event. The SEQ and MEQ are timed and no grace period. How's this new event different than any of those?
As far as the pass goes, it's a paid offer that gives you more. How's it different than the questing booster at the end of Cav or UC? Or any other paid offer designed to help you?
You simply cannot ignore precedent. Regardless of whether you think it's right or not to do so, the community will not. The preceding time these particular set of rewards were offered over the course of 3 months was via calendar, with grace days. The pass that gives you grace days is directly monetizing what was previously free.
I have no issue with the pass that doubles rewards, other than the fact that it is just bad optics.

The point is, it's nothing to turn the game on, hit Auto, and do 10 Fights. We don't even need to watch the game. Not every Event will accommodate to every individual need.

Your point is still invalid. You fail to understand some people take vacations.
If you don't know what these are then they're trips that people take with loved ones.
Not every person has internet access on vacation. Some people travel oversea where there may not be a conmection. Some people go camping where there may not be a connection. These people have no ability to log on everyday. Each year before kabam understood this and gave everyone some grace days for the top rewards, this year that is not the case

You'd think there'd be free WiFi with how much cruises cost lol.
With as much as I have cruised (wife and I started when we began dating in like 2009) we have some decent perks but man them adding free wifi would be a game changer lol. I think I get 300 free minutes, so hopefully I can maybe use that just for the login calendar and the 10 fights while pooping lol

summoner appreciation was a daily thing as well... if 5-10min is a lot each day i guess you have better things to worry about rather than the game.
Except that is 5 to 10 mins plus aq plus aw. I see op point as on holidays an extra 5 or 10 adds up or a loved one passes you gonna go hold up this funeral I need just 5 to 10 minutes in game.
Me personally I don't like anyone and have no social life so meh I'll hit them all. This game really is great for introverts like me.

So, I tend to agree with the minority opinion here that it's not complicated. It's mind blowing to me that there are people who don't log in daily and expect the same rewards as people who do.
That's my opinion and it won't change. That said, I have easy access to WiFi and unlimited cell data (and I don't travel). If I went to the "country" (I like to call it Texas, Texas) I could run into issues doing more than just AQ/AW. Then, others pointed out that as of now, it's not really notifying that you completed it or going into overflow. That does suck.
So personally, I'm not affected, but I don't think it would be wrong for them to consider adding a few days grace. Doesn't have to be a full week, but 3 days. If it's too difficult to add a timer, I wouldn't be opposed to them sending everyone a free 7-day boost. And I say this as someone who has already bought the plus.

This isn't the first time we've had consistent Rewards. We've had Calendars that required consistent logging on. The difference was missing days meant sacrificing some kind of Reward. I agree that this is unique in that there's no room to wiggle, but I'm also not offended by it. The requirements are to do it everyday. That's part of what's entailed. If I miss it, those are the rules. Lots of people have life situations that come up but this isn't a game that guarantees all Rewards for less participation.
Already didn’t log in without realizing there were no Grace periods. Apparently now I miss out on 500 units. Great. I think this event, while not too complicated, is a little too many steps for an event replacing an appreciation event.
It takes about 5 minutes to auto fight 10 times. That is literally all you have to do. And this reward is supposed to be as an appreciation to the people who actually do get on and play daily. I think people need to quit complaining. If anything complain about the money side of it, that actually makes sense to complain about.
I don't understand the people against this. This doesn't have any negative impact on the game. It doesn't effect you. As well there's a plethora of issues one could have in 98 days that causes them to miss a day. Like phone being outdated or broken or stolen.
@Hoitado@Crusaderjr AQ and AW fights don’t count towards this. I’ve been vacationing with family I haven’t seen in years the past few days which included moving things, going on a flight, etc without any breaks or time for the game in between. When we arrived at our hotel we still had to get other reservations complete and such. By the time I had finished I just did AQ and went to bed. None of those AQ fights counted and so I don’t get rewards. Similar types of things occurred today and I did move in AQ. If all I have time for is AW and AQ but they don’t count and there are no grace days... that’s just stupid. I will be able to do the rest of these but what’s the point? I missed one of the best rewards because of the idea there shouldn’t be any grace days. Either do that or at least let AQ and AW count.
The notification is broken, I suspect a massive amount of mid level players aren’t going to realise they have to manually find and claim the reward even after they have done the objective, 98 days in a row. it’s clearly bugged and for that reason should definitely be looked at, a couple of grace days at the end would be a good solution as well as fixing the notification bug as it’s still not working, if I’d missed I would probably be tryin to email support to ask for compensation.
