When it comes to normal content, players could theoretically hold off until the bug is fixed and then Kabam could give out a bunch of energy refills to allow player to catch up as part of one big compensation package. It is not a perfect solution but it is something. Normally Kabam gives out compensation for game disruptions only after the disruption is fixed, so they know the scope of the problem. For solo content, this is still something that is reasonable to do.
One query—if the “avoid difficult content” warning still applies, why not keep all SoP quests open from the bug inception to now?
Dr. Zola
I know a lot of players (myself included on an alt account), that pushed for TB in the last couple of weeks so we can qualify for the TB SoP objectives. I was only seeking T5CC (did 7.1), but for many others they were doing Act 6 completion.
So as much as "avoid difficult content" seems easy enough, the timing of that statement doesn't work with what is happening in the game if players are trying to maximize rewards. I do hope at the end of this that they issue compensation that addresses all game modes including solo and incursions.
Really doubt they will give incursion artifacts but probably 1 million battle chips would be good since arena is impacted badly 👀
Not affected by the bug myself and I think Kabam has done a good job communicating and trying to be transparent but I do think they shoulda thrown some reg pots/vives in there for those that that are getting screwed in timed events(sop,eq sq,more I might have missed). While some may say "there's always next month" for the rewards 1.we still don't even know if the next patch will even work 2. Why should those players affected be penalized for a defect in the BASIC MECHANICS OF THE GAME? If it was one mode,aq/aw,then OK ,hold off, but if I'm not mistaken this affects everything.
I have no stakes but think about the beginner players. This could really turn a lotta newer players off also. "Just opened parry and it doesn't even work😑" I think they'll give a good comp but it may be too late for a lot of players for certain things.just my 2 cents

For new players, they’ll get used to this quickly since they’ll probably think that they messed up their timings and it’s always been like this. The problem for them will be AFTER the problem is fixed since they were used to the messed up timings since the game started, and now they have to block a bit later than they used to.
the glory and the potions are amazing, but I should start using those potions cuz some of them are already in overflow (cuz I'm stupid enough to use the solo ones and keep forgetting about the team ones lol)

Wasn't thinking so much about artifacts. More Health pots and revives. Those cost double what they do in solo content. And if you screw up, you're not just letting yourself down, but also your partner.
You can say, just don't do incursions. Fine, but there are new artifacts on offer every 5 days. If every time there is an issue and Kabam simply just forgets about incursions, maybe they should reconsider whether they're serious about the game mode.
At the moment, I just chill and go to sector 8 and room 5, it gets me the milestones no fuss.
As for an impact to arena, if you miss a parry in arena, you would have to already be in a bad state for it to end you. If you miss it in high level solo content or incursions, the attack values and nodes are so stacked - chances are you won't recover.
Either way, it would be nice to them address all modes in the post mortem.
So I got three packages of glory without having any issues with the game. What an unexpected luck.
IT'S A SCAM!!! I suggest writing to Kabam and asking them to take the package back from you as it was a mistake. You wouldn't want to be caught "exploiting" the game and breaking TOS.
The regular pots, units, revives etc will come in the main compensation package.
The glory, AQ revives and pots etc are for the current cycle of AQ only (which is why they’re all AQ specific items and why we get one set each time a new cycle starts).

I sure want to see more courage people who admit that there is nothing wrong with this game instead of all liars.

So Kabam is wrong when they say that there is something wrong with their own game because you know better?

Have you finally had a mental break of some kind? This is not the normal you at all.

Nice, when I read this I thought they were gonna give some normal revives but this is fine with me too since I was low on glory anyway.
Normal revives would have been cool but Beggars can't be choosers i guess
We’re not beggars, we’re customers. And customers can be choosers. We can choose to play other games. We can choose to spend no money on a broken, poorly maintained game like this one, or to spend less money. Kabam is not giving compensation out of the goodness of their heart. They are trying to prevent us from getting mad and choosing to play another game or stop spending money. We should get far more compensation for all the problems, but we won’t as long as enough of their customers are satisfied with the crumbs they are giving us.
Kabam pls give us a final and good compensation that has either aw season rewards(once more) or last year's July compensation. Whenever I type compensation mcoc the first thing I see in YouTube is July compensation video by seatin

Yea let's give compensation based on YouTube's search algorithm...

For that much compensation in their eyes you gotta spend

That's exactly my thought. Like I get they're giving compensation out and I appreciate it but why are we not getting normal pots. This bug is affecting every other game mode 🤨
Kabam is continuing to recommend that players avoid difficult content where possible until the bugs have been resolved. I am guessing that Kabam is acknowledging that this is something individual players can do relatively easily, but alliances cannot as easily do across the alliance when it comes to AQ, so compensation is currently targeting AQ.
When it comes to normal content, players could theoretically hold off until the bug is fixed and then Kabam could give out a bunch of energy refills to allow player to catch up as part of one big compensation package. It is not a perfect solution but it is something. Normally Kabam gives out compensation for game disruptions only after the disruption is fixed, so they know the scope of the problem. For solo content, this is still something that is reasonable to do.
But with AQ that's much trickier because it can be more difficult to coordinate map changes in an alliance, and potions might only be necessary while the bug exists. If you wait until the bug is fixed and then give a big pile of potions at the end players will first have to spend units to buy potions to use now, then they'll get a bunch of potions in compensation they won't need anymore. So instead of waiting to the end, they are feeding players smaller AQ compensation packages to hand them some potions to use going into AQ if they are still having problems in AQ and stepping down to avoid those issues is impractical, plus extra glory for alliances who are stepping down to try to compensate for the bugs.
This is just a guess, but it seems reasonably likely to me.
Maybe @DNA3000 was prophetic and the real reason Kabam has nerfed energy refills across story content is because a huge compensation is coming to allow us to catch up!
@Kabam Miike is that what you were alluding too when you said the “ While it's not a problem that there are some areas of the game that you can replay to find some items and resources, there shouldn't be a space where it's consistently more profitable on energy than what is used. This is not sustainable for Energy.”
