HG war bug solution does not help

Smiff · December 2021

As someone who spent over 1K on black Friday/cyber weekend deals, who never comments on the changes you guys make and do to this game. I find it appalling that your solution is to lower rewards claim by one war, which we don't even have that many wars left, and then say this war doesn't count. There are numerous alliances that are on the verge of moving up a bracket that this war not counting will deem their seasons dead. You guys are literally coming off your most profitable weekend and us players are now being screwed out of rewards that we work for and have even spent time, money, and resources to obtain through war efforts. Weather it through buying deals or grinding arena and content for what we want. I hope you take this comment and reconsider your plans, or at least have some sort of massive compensation

ManuEL_MARVEL · December 2021

I completely agree, Kabam needs to recognize the investment we make into our accounts. They should also take into account the pride we get in the rankings. To just ignore the fact that certain alliances were on the verge of moving up and taking pride is extremely upsetting on top of financial aspect.

AMEN! This is just getting more and more ridiculous with this game. AW being likely the one piece of content that is appealing to me anymore since the consistent fall of reliability with so many aspects of the game and content in general.

We were making the push to hit P2 and needed all remaining war rounds to hit the mark. Now just have to settle for P3 no matter what we do the rest of the season. I feel the slap in the face. Looking for a compensation ice pack to reduce the disappointment swelling from the game trend.

How did you spend over 1K on the CW deals? The cash deals tap out at 595 and would net you 17700 units and all the unit deals came out to 27000 units which means you would have to buy 3 more odins to get them all (assuming you had no units to begin with). That only brings the total up to 895.
Unless you're not in the US, then disregard this comment.

rockykoston · December 2021

Totally agreed. All the effort that the leaders, officers and the entire alliance have put in is going into the bin.

So many alliances know they can move up, or atleast have a fair chance of doing so, but this cancellation isn't going to make that possible.

How are we supposed to stay motivated?

Blue_007 · December 2021

1000% agree! I wish Kabam would drop this war and add one more to the season. This way all is balanced out and no alliances get hurt by this issue. Because that one less war can and will be the deciding factor between one bracket to another for so many alliances and it’s absolutely not their fault.

That’s what you see wrong here lol. He might have purchased more unit to get all the unit deals as well.

Could be 1k pesos

It’s ridiculous that you’ve been through 9 wars, you aren’t in whatever bracket you’re talking about, but you’re convinced these last 3 wars will get you there.

Putting aside changing multipliers as you go, the options for 3-war and 2-war finales have these options to move you up or down.

3-0
2-0
2-1
1-1
1-2
0-2
0-3

A 2-0 finish (out of 2) will do more for you than a 2-1 finish (in three wars). Unless you’re waving a magic wand and deciding your group will go 3-0, there’s no reason to believe you’re categorically worse off. Does this narrow the range of outcomes? Absolutely. If you’re upset about that, take a moment to reflect and consider whether your desired outcome was actually realistic to begin with.

Disposablex · December 2021

This war bug on top of the general lack of communication about all issues that have arisen. We get a copy and paste response of "we're looking into it," and "we'll let you know" but there is hardly ever a follow-up, and when one is finally presented, its rather vague. With the current war bug, how is this war not counting? Will it be taken out or consideration after season like previously? Do you plan on compensation for items used before you finally posted a response? How about aq? There is still no answer as to if the map difficulty is officially fixed or not.
You promised previously (after the last call for a boycott) to have a clear and open dialog with the players moving forward, but have failed to deliver on both aspects. When will there be enough pushback from the community to justify you living up to your end? Or will the whales once again have to resort to calling the company out and threatening boycott?

well when one victory means the differnce between t1 and t2 yeah i am gonna be concerned about every win and loss at the stage im at

Sheep · December 2021

I hundred percent agree I enjoyed this game spent money and grew my account however I’m very disappointed in this decision as it causes more complications I’m close to first platinum 4 highest ever got and bet there are loads others who will suffer now it saddens me that minor things are being implemented to this fix

Grub · December 2021

Or you could’ve lost and been even further.

They should end the season and just give some compensation that bumps people to next tier. Easy fix.

Here’s the reality of the situation - if you’re ranked #167 after 9 wars, there’s nothing you can do in 3 wars to climb to #100. You’re averaging 1.03m pts per war. The team at the bottom of p2 averages 1.175m. You need to score 1.6mil points per war to overcome that deficit in 3 wars.

You were NEVER going to do that. Even with 3 wars with no deaths and perfect diversity. You should thank them for sparing you from wasting resources on that hopeless climb.

@Grub

No. Imagine a master 2 ally getting comp .
By your logic, it should recieve masters 1 rewards?

For tiers that are lower than p4, this comp solution is fine, but for alliances above plat4, where it gets very competitive, this would cause rage. Alliances would complain about unfair ways of giving rewards to players who did not deserve.

idk why your using that as an example it's not just about me and my team..... there are numerous alliances that are even closer than i am to the next bracket..... defned kabam all you want they **** a lot of people over wheter you can see it or not

Xguard77 · December 2021

While I'm not as passionate or angry as those above, i think would be an act of faith to reward all alliances one level above their current placement. Takes care of the "we were so close to the next tier!" thing, and certainly isn't going to break the game economy.

who told you that him and his alliance is at #167?

theMercenary · December 2021

On the verge means nothing. There's no way to know who would have won what war. You're getting the reward for the current bracket you're in. If you're in Plat 1, you get that. You're not being screwed out of anything because you don't know how the season would have finished.

Searmenis · December 2021

Completely agreed too. Many of us we bust our butts to play war, something we do for our alliance that, again, many of us don't even like but it's mandatory, and all this struggle is just, cancelled.

Take in account the pride... WTF.

Kabam Miike · December 2021

Cancelling a Season or War is never a decision we make without a lot of thought and while it may not be the best, it's kind of the "least worst" solution we had in this case. There are always so many different factors involved and many questions that will be left unanswered, like "would this Alliance have gone up a bracket? What if they went down instead?". These aren't things we can predict.

We don't like having to cancel War Seasons, but maintaining the fairness of a War Season to the best of our abilities is important to us, and to do so, we often have to take the nuclear option.

We know it isn't perfect, but we did this to do the best that we could without pressuring Alliances to still win in a war that was not supposed to count towards the Season in the end.

Fair to interpret this as, the cards will fall where they fall and awards will be handed out based on current placements? Or in the face of another bugged game mode will the player base participating and affected by this be compensated outside of those rewards?

Asking for a “friend”

Not that I’m demanding or asking for this in any sense, but is there an explanation for why there isn’t the decision to give people a little extra rewards? (maybe not the bracket above, but a little extra) in case people had made it up to the next one.

I definitely can see the answer to this being game economy, I get that it may not be realistic and would fully understand that. I was just wondering if this is ever a conversation going on in situations like this.
