It’s so hard to love this game. Develop 2 champs a month. Increase the tediousness of event quests as well as difficulty. Only compensation package is war.. which most won’t play because it’s not fun and buggy. A year buggy. How much money has kabam made off of every KO and unit spent in their new act 7 content alone in this time. Did those aw comps help there? They must want to promote an entirely new game there’s no way a successful game could allow a core issue to persist this long and not get sued. Now the last happy place aq? Just as tedious as everything else. Booo
"a little extra"...? "As a gesture"...? Oh, I can think of a gesture right now.
"The issue" is what exactly...? Can you please elaborate on what THE ISSUE is here?
I personally couldn't care less about compensation. What I do demand though, before spending another dime on the game, is A CLEAR EXPLANATION on what THE ISSUE is and a road map on the CLEAR STEPS the developers are taking of taking care of this issue and ensuring it does not happen again.
The issue is that they put in the wrong numbers thats all, its a mistake, thats why we got big health and attack numbers. They fix it by redoing it from scratch, probably test it on an offline server, getting it ready for the next cycle. Why would you need need some in depth explaining of what the problem is and how they gonna fix i really dont know! Has any of you applied to work for them and they refused you? On top of everything else it is more fun this way, i like this "mistake"! Bring in the hate now:)))

Please share your inside info on how they are "testing" right now. Are they testing in the same way the "tested" the AQ Maps before proceeding to UNANNOUNCED changes? Are they "testing" in the same manner they "tested" Variant 8 Boss fights..? Kindly elaborate and enlight us.
Thanks for the reply, Boo. You are lovely as always. But can you please get back to us on the exact issue that will be resolved??
Coz we, the ppl loggin in to play this game mode day in and day out, we see what's wrong. Unfortunately many of us don't have any faith left that you guys know it the way we do. No, I'm no developper. I have no idea how to put a game file together.
But myself and the active community know how AQ was working - disconnects and input failures aside - that's what we'd like it reverted back to.
No nodes 2nd fight Sector 1...... damn fun (insert Prof Hoff comment)
Challenge rating in action; she has higher penetration, crit rate, crit damage multiplier then before, as she's gone from 120 to 150 while your corvus stuck at 120.
Update: You will find a little extra in your AQ package tomorrow, as a gesture from the team. The issue is not yet resolved but should be done before the end of the week. We will be back to confirm when it is done. Thanks again for your patience.
Hi again folks, the team sincerely apologises that this has happened. As they are unable to make any retroactive changes, the team will consider some compensation for the inconvenience. For now, we kindly ask that you select a different Map until the team can get this issue fixed. We will let you all know when the issue is resolved. We apologise once again for the inconvenience. We will be back again once we have more information on the compensation, and also when the issue is resolved. Sorry and thanks again for your continued patience and understanding!
I'm going to figure this out for you, so you can focus on fixing it. You changed the rarity of the defenders, changing them from 5* to 6*, however did NOT change the rank and level. You have the first ever rank 5, level 65 6* in MCOC. The champion attack and health boosts haven't been adjusted, thus making them even much more stronger. How no one at Kabam (supposedly programming experts) did not see this, even after being made aware of the situation is beyond me.

At this point, minor updates would do more wonders than the “thanks for your patience, please be patient, etc” sweet nothings.
I’d hope people realize that it isn’t necessarily the mods fault this game decides to throw whatever tantrums at the worst time, they unfortunately take the brunt of what I’m sure other dept would rightfully deserve to hear.
That being said, it sucks to hear players are going through the gauntlet because of this issue.

Definately they aren't responsible. Unfortunately their position has them planning messenger, they are essentially our only line to Kabam.
That said, more communication is the biggest thing we are asking for from them. They may be getting only " we don't know" answers from the department's that they take issues to which is unfortunate if that's the case. If that's what is going on Kabam management needs to have those departments give mods a little more to go on so that they can effectively communicate.
I think most of us can agree that Kabam needs to seriously rework their customer support program. Not just here on the forums but in every aspect.

They weren't supposed to be increasing the difficulty of the lower maps, that is why they were supposedly making the higher maps (higher difficulty and more points). This means it isn't just that they needed to make the 6* lower rank, they shouldn't have made them 6* at all because 6* has higher challenger rating which makes all the fights harder than before regardless of the rank they set them at.
He's almost impossible to beat this is harder then becoming thornbreaker and the bosses on the way... the HT mini are ridiculous and making it so only a certain few can take them down with the right champs and enough revives in there pocket

In this case, for example, it is horrible to read that you will receive a "little extra"...

I like Boo enough to think she was being coy and they’re gonna pull through for us. Coming from anyone else, I probably would’ve read it as, “take a potion, peasant.”
I’m just baffled at the miss rate lately. AQ maps busted. Variant 8 bugged (and bad when fixed, compared to 5-6-7). Sidequest overtuned three months in a row (high PI and short rosters for the past two months, way too grindy 3 months back). And worst of all for me, the refusal to update the glory store.
I could deal with all the other nonsense if I felt like I was growing my roster and improving my team. Without stuff like the Gauntlet/SOP, I can’t afford to take champs to r2 unless I’m also taking them to r3. With 50-60 champs that are max 5 or 6r2+, it’s not like one more makes a huge difference, but I guess I’d say I play for the collection/team building, and the game is losing that.

It is sad I must lower my expectations of fairness so Kabam won't disappoint me.
I like Boo enough to think she was being coy and they’re gonna pull through for us. Coming from anyone else, I probably would’ve read it as, “take a potion, peasant.”
There's no comp package that will erase the memory of yet another absurd screw up or the days of frustration waiting for Boo to say "oh, we'll look into that." Potions, yay. But there's no way we can trust them at this point to: get things right, respond to issues in a timely manner, fix said issues in a timely manner (or at all?), value our time and effort.
This should have been dealt with as an emergency and they could have called someone in on the weekend to end the cycle. Immediate post/announcement of "Oh ****, sorry. More info on Monday when the team is in the office." Instead we got... days of silence followed by "Sorry, thanks for your patience. Mystery comp tbd, but until then continue wasting resources on our obvious mistake."

We couldn't beat him last round, but I think 8 of us brought Voids to deal with him.

Why didn't you post the forum warning for these issues in AQ as you did earlier for other issues?
