**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event

**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

Do the devs actually play the game?

I mean, look at the variant 8. One of the bosses is basically a copy of variant 4 (it only misses mighty charge) and it has a bug
Venompool is just a ridiculous fight. It would be doable if non-mercs were useful, any mystic or decent real reversal champion would do excellent, but the feeling I get is that the people who designed this fight doesn't play the game at all and doesn't know how to balance things
Same thing with the side quest. Annihilus? Cool, okay, a good defender, interesting fight. Unstoppable buff? Ok, nullify it. But bane and bubble shield with unstoppable on a quest you can't bring more than two champions (the 3 star eternals are useless but necessary to open the gate)? A quest that should be a quick one that you play in some minutes should be that challenging, considering these mediocre prizes? Shouldn't be like Carina's challenge rewards, but some of the challenges feel easier than variant 8 and recent side quests!!
Not to mention that we still have the controls issues, which makes all the new content way more difficult. I don't know about you, but since a few updates ago these issues are becoming worse for one of my devices (specially in incursions and arenas)
And on top of that, we don't get at least a small piece of compensation. Not talking about crystals, catalysts, etc. But an easy way to get potions and revives, like, make them easier to obtain instead of sending them to us once per month. Maybe solo events, solo objectives, missions, idk
The game is amazing, it has a great and big community, people love it. But please kabam, fix the game and listen to us more regularly. As the problems appear, more distant you get from the community and it sucks, it feels that the game is losing it's harmony 😞

If that means content will take longer to be released so be it. This was a horrific content launch
Two troubling thoughts come to my mind when I think about this content:
A - the QA just said it was all fine because they couldn’t be bothered to have to re-test updated content. So an F for effort.
Or
B, they reported it and it was approved anyway, which suggests a real disconnect between junior and senior staff and the reality of actually playing the game for fun.
It’s an interesting question, do staff play the game? I don’t know if I would play the game that I spend 8 hours/day working on. I know from speaking with devs on other online games that the second they became members of staff, their actual love for the game started to decline because ultimately it’s just become a job and whether you like your job or not, it’s still work not play.
Compared to this month's(one day and done per week) last month's SQ was more grindy.
But if given the option, I would do last month's SQ again, as the rewards were in par with the effort needed to get them.
At one time I went bankrupt on t4bs. Gave up some 6*shards/t5b to grab some t4bs. My 40+ t2as didn't expire because of the flexibility in resource accessibility.
Players low on gold had access to a good 350k chunk per run if they didn't mind to use their keys on.
The quests are getting hard, which I don't mind tbh. But when rewards does not match the efforts, it leaves a bad taste after so much invested time.
There can be no other explanation fr all the mess
Earlier they had the excuse of not having any high tier players in their team, but now they've got Dave & even the CCP is there to assist them, so there's really no excuse now except not giving a flying fudge
