There is a laundry list of ways to eliminate bot farming; or at least dramatically reduce it.
I refuse to believe a company with a team of data analysts and data scientists couldn’t figure out a way to fix the issue.
They simply don’t want trading of any kind anymore and won’t just come out and say it.
Dropping the paragon title with no way of obtaining on release without having purchased offers
Act 7 completion offer which people could buy 2 or maybe 3 times(not sure exactly how many times it was opened)
Opening floodgates on r4 materials
Essentially giving everyone that could spend 18k units an r4 Hercules on July 4th
Loyalty changes both potions and store
Selling GGC for 50$
Increasing prices on the cavalier nexus crystal pack by 100%
Gifting being canceled in the name of fraud control after imposing stringent eligibility requirements last year.
It almost seems like ‘make as much money as possible’ strategy and it kind of is giving me bad vibes about the game.
I know people will disagree if post stays up for long but I feel it’s a bit concerning the general direction the game is headed.
1. You could have paragon without spending on day 1 but the title on release wasn't meant to go out to everyone.
2. Glitches happen. They tried to fix it and couldn't. It's not that game changing.
3. Isn't this what people were asking for anyway? Why ask for more R4 mats and then complain about how abundant they are now.
4. You act like there were millions of people that got herc. Who really cares if someone wanted to spend 18k units on a single champ? Like, what's it going to do to you and your account?
5. Loyalty changes are a major issue and still are. I agree with this.
6. Ok? They sold that pack 2 years in a row.
7. This was one time so far and it just happened yesterday. It's not changing the history of the game nor the direction. The marketing team tried something and looks like it failed big time. You'll likely never see it again and probably won't see that pool of champs in a cav crystal again either. But stop pretending it broke the game.
8. The event changed just like it has every year since it's introduction. it needed to change and even after all the exploiters last year, this new way was needed. If you want to be mad at someone for the gifting event, be mad at the people who cheat and steal and exploit their way through the game. The bad ones ruin it for all the rest of us.
(Trick question, I don’t have any.)
The *specific* post I replied to was questioning whether the original report was even possible at all, by any means, as they explicitly stated "not completely outside the realm of possibility but a huge raised eyebrow."
And the fact that people still seem to think VPNs are helpful in this regard makes me pretty sure we aren't dealing with master criminals here. They'll be caught eventually.
Imagine all those activities you mentioned but you have only 20 policemen for the whole world.
Closing down the avenues by which said activities are committed is the best option.
A few bad apples ruin the bunch...that said this is just a new opportunity to create another "pay-wall", very fortunate for Kabam...my best advice after being in this thing since it launched and doing my fair share of spending...wait and see, we can guess all day and ask all night, they won't be clear on this until very close to the event, they will definitely need to better understand how to make rev on this...
It's not punishment, it's mitigation. There's little way to deal with it and the repercussions for the Event have become too heavy to responsibly run it.
