so i wouldn't say that people who spend don't also grind or bust their butts. spending is just an option and it may not be simply because a person doesn't want to be bothered with content.
No you never hear spenders complain that FTP players can get what they spend for because there is nothing that is locked behind being free to play. Every spender can get everything that a FTP player can get. This is an odd point to make.
Offers have a balance to keep to, if they get too much eventually it’s going to feel worthless to play the game when spenders can just spent £35 and get masters season rewards.
Offers also affect the game economy. If you flood the economy with too much too fast, it devalues effort and whatever you’re flooding the game with. There is a cost to offering things now, because over time there has to be more and more for offers to be worth it. This is the balance that Kabam need to keep to, and I don’t think they’ve met it here.
@BitterSteel made perfectly valid points. This feels like it upsets the balance of the game with current in game rewards taken into account, and it devalues content like CC’s from a time spent perspective.
Yes, we know it’s just a game. But we care about it and disagree at times with things in it. Saying “it’s just a game” could be applied to literally anything anyone ever cares about. Moleman RDTs, it’s just a game why do you care? Bugs, it’s just a game why do you care?
We care because we want the game to be the best it can be. I’m not claiming to be smarter than you, I’m making a point and saying that you’re brushing off concerns in a disrespectful way.
truth be told, i could grind for thousands of units right? i could grind for six star champs etc right? BUT i'm not upset at Kabam for offering those same things to someone who wants to spend $100. it hasn't made those in game rewards outdated at all.
progression is such in the game to where most things are in tiers. i guess those tiers exist and we say things are outdated but in reality, there are tiers to this. Cavalier, TB, Paragon ... nothing is technically outdated if we accept the fact that there are tiers. and even spenders should be considered a certain tier.
i was simply saying that to calm the uproar down although i realize that's never gonna happen lol. still, i just don't think these offers devalue those in war at all. you do and you have every right to that. i'm just saying i don't agree.
Kabam really need to boost rewards of AW & AQ, at least 5 X (T3A and T5B) of the current rewards.
That seems fair.
Once more, I look forward to the next time you disagree with something in game - as long as every game does it. I’ll be sure to point out that it’s just a game, and that “every game does it”
But feel free to call me out on anything .... much like it's just a game ... these are just forums lol. I don't take anything here personal. We're all here to share and receive thoughts on the game.
Some players will post “aw needs to be cancelled” or “they need to upgrade this” or “they need to send compensation”. They dont NEED to do jack. I dont think some understand what their role is in this game. Be happy they respond to forum posts and be happy someone even sends compensation.
Because you feel it’s unfair won’t stop this business from making money. You’re just complaining. And if you’re in a plat or master tier alliance and complaining, that’s just sad. You’re already a top 10% of the player base. Need to chill.
Alright, off the soapbox. As an interesting train of thought, this is similar when players were hunting down for r3 upgrades. It took forever the first year or 2, then they put the materials everywhere and in every deal. Now having an r3 is easy. I wouldn’t be surprised if r5’s are planned sometime soon.
As much as you’d like the easy way out of calling everyone whiners, it’s actually just because you can’t figure out a way to think of a good point other than saying people are whining.
Let us know if you think of a valid point though
I spend, but i also play high tier wars. The fact that our effort ALL MONTH long can be bought in a week/35 $ is a joke.
How about they actually fix the game’s input issues instead since they seem to be unable to do both (create offers AND fix bugs). at the same time? That would be an even better business decision. I have stopped spending money on this game, not due to offers but due to bugs. I know others who have stopped spending as well.
This is Marvel Contest of Champions, not Marvel Contest of Store Offers….
I’m sure the rewards that the whales are getting now will eventually be available for the dolphins, fish and plankton.
As much as it’s “unfair” to non spenders, it can be also considered equally unfair to the spenders that they are actually paying the entirety of Kabam to develop the game that we all enjoy playing, while non spenders reap the benefits as well.
It’s okay because you don’t have a choice. The problem with a lot of players thinking like this is that they are entitled or deserve better. Kabam is a company to make money. T3A and T6B are needed and there are players who will buy.
Kabam doesnt NEED to do jack or owe you anything. Be happy someone responds to the forum or sends out whatever compensation they see fit.
Whine and complain all you want. But if you’re in a plat alliance or master tier, its a bit sad. You’re already in the top 10% of the player base. On top of that, for AW rewards, you dont JUST get T3A and T6B rewards. You get a ton of 6* shards and other stuff that other players would love to get. Someone wants to spend $35 a week? Let them. Surprised kabam didnt make that $50 a week
Feel like it’s not fair? Then stop playing, but try to not be emotional or dramatic. We don’t care.
Now off the soapbox. To a more interesting thought for those who are level headed. This same cadence happened when r3’s came out. It was hard to get materials for a year or two, then they were everywhere. Soon after they announced r4’s. If the cycle repeats, might be seeing r5’s?
I don’t know about you, but I really respect and admire someone who resorts to name calling because they can’t think of a better point to make.
Actually you need reading lessons. I made SEVERAL points which I made clearly. And you think I give 2 cents about who you respect? LOL. big ego there, good luck with that.
I see you like to respond but didn’t address or comment on anything I said. Says you got emotional and had nothing else to say.
I encourage you, in the future, to fully read comments and if you disagree, actually have comments instead of saying your respect went down. But like i said, my notes were for level headed players
As it happens, my respect was less about you and more about any point you made. I don’t know you, this is the first post I’ve seen you make so how can I respect you? I can however, respect or admire or take seriously the point you try to make. Alas, it was too full of insults and saying people were whining. Same with your second one, it’s as though you’re trying to fit as many in as possible.
My post said you missed the point, because it spectacularly did. I read your post, and the points that you made that’s how I know it missed the point.
If you can somehow manage to make a post while holding your urge to insult at bay, I may explain it for you. But I don’t really waste my time making points for people who clearly have some superiority complex and need to insult and deride to make you feel better about themselves. Why bother, when you’ll clearly just come back with some ever so clever comment about me whining?
You then went on the say ‘we don’t care if you feel it’s unfair’ like you speak for the entire community.
So you can see you didn’t actually make any points valid to this discussion about the wider balance of in-game rewards vs cash deals. But thank you for your opinion.
Have 100% content and I got my paragon first week of EOP-2, 2 weeks ago.
I'm sitting at 140 rank in BG. And I know how was my experience to push against people with 5-8 r4s in BG.
I have a decent deck, but it's not even close to the real whales, I was amazed by the diversity of their rosters, have nothing to complain on that aspect. I pushed through with what I had And it was fun.
Kabam will do what they gotta do...
Make everything in game to be dominated by money. Im uncomfortable, but it's not the end.
I did what I had to do.
Dropped Map8 which I was playing continuously since day 1. Dropped from platinum 234 wars.
The efforts don't seem rewarding anymore.
Now I'm resting on map5 Gold 2. And have no plans to go back to AQ/AW.
My desire to compete in wars is gone.
Lost my passion to keep up my prestige.(not top but decent)
My item stash is still stacked, if you think I dropped due to that, no.
Only thing I want to play is BG.
6* Champions don't come easy and I'll wait for my turn.
