Wasn't this event universally disliked last year? I mean, it seems a little better, but the same concept.

    depends on if there’s a pay bonus or not

    I believe I did see something about a "Premium Resort Pass", I just didn't think to double check before I posted. My bad.
    yeah there is, edited the comment to show it

    I wonder if they will take away the unused tokens some of us still have left over from the last event. Or if this will be a new currency still rendering those old tokems obsolete.

    A few of my alts are still sitting on some that I never got around to using.

    @Kabam Jax can we get insight to this?

    The resort pass price should be cut down from what it was last year

    This is no longer SA. I wonder who thinks and approves of this stuff? Do they even have a QA

    While I agree this type of event isn’t great, I’d like to clear up the misconception about QA real quick. QA are meant to be bug testers (again kind of laughable in it’s own right but that’s a different topic) and not game or system designers. A QA tester wouldn’t even be able to tell anyone that they thought an event like this is a bad idea because it would be out of their field to do so, and would be disregarded almost immediately.

    I don't get why people are so put off by it. It's not that different. Claim a Calendar, or claim an Objective. All the same, really.

    For me, it's the objectives aspect as well as the fact there is an option to pay for more items. To me, it was better when there was a progression calander and people claimed the items, now you have to do objectives and then pay like $20 to double them. The monetary part just makes it like all those other game events where you do tasks to collect items and ypu can pay to get the other side of those items too. Can't think of them name of those but yeah. Takes the appreciation out for me
    The appreciation ( and I still won't call it that, and neither have they) is from the free Items we get. There's an option to get more if we pay. That's pretty much how the game works. I just don't see the difference between logging on and logging on and clicking a button. Just logging on to claim the Calendar isn't how the game is played. For that matter, it was 10 Fights, if memory serves. Those could be done on Auto in RTTL or any other easy aspect. I can understand the lack of grace days.

    Yea, read on it. Just wanted to say that I hated it a lot last year.

    I meant last year, they added grace days. Fair enough though.

    What is this "that" that is being referred to?

    I'm honestly confused why this was brought back, when the original summoner appreciation calendar was much better received and felt like appreciation.

    I know we can't change this it this year now, but Kabam can we please consider bringing the old format back and not this summer resort event.

    Because it turned out that people could start up multiple alt accounts and log in every day earning a bunch of materials and primarily a bunch of units that could be held over until gift-giving to give themselves an edge. The current setup of the camp requires active participation on the account which tbf on two or three accounts, it's not that a big deal but when you're practically starting an entire Alliance amount of accounts may no longer feel worth the effort
