**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

Thank you @Kabam Miike for the response. However, the game started to lag before the game actually lost network connection. The game was back up now for about 15 minutes and it is back down once again. I have now wasted two 30%attack, 30% health, and 30%attack/health boosts (the ones that are all an hour long). I did pay money for these when the bundles came around and now feel they have gone to waste.
How are those things taken into account (lost boosts, lagging before actual crash, etc.) and now that the game has crashed twice, how am I supposed to think I will still have a shot at the legends run? You can PM me if you would rather talk about this there.
Oh so the same speed as your network
At this point, I think we're now past this since the downtime completely overlapped a Modok reset.
I have stated repeatedly in the past that *some* unexpected downtime is something people have to tolerate in an imperfect world. But I do think that if Kabam is going to make a game that relies on certain mechanics, it becomes their responsibility to make sure those mechanics work correctly to a very high degree of fidelity. If they want to make timed entrance events with no margin for error when they turn over (the events and the entrances literally reset with no way to finish the mission and no way to bank an entrance credit if unforeseen events happen) then I believe Kabam has to take full responsibility when their own system faults create problems.
Because anyone who says server downtime is unavoidable is correct, but many game penalties are entirely avoidable. Modok could have been designed with an eye to what happens if something happens when the event turns over. The back to back eight hour start and termination windows have no such safeguards built into the system.
We cannot blame Kabam for every unexpected downtime, but I think it is entirely reasonable for players to demand that Kabam factor in their own uptime expectations into the game and make sure players are not penalized for "acceptable rates" of downtime. AQ and AW are doubly timed events but those events are not designed to account for unexpected downtime. Modok's is timed, but it is also not designed for unexpected downtime. There's not much you can do about downtime in the arena, but many other parts of the game can be designed around factoring in or mitigating unexpected downtime. That unexpected downtime exists is not entirely Kabam's fault (although they should certainly try to reduce it from the current ridiculous levels). But that the game isn't designed to account for the downtime everyone knows is going to happen is entirely their fault.
we finished to finish the little life that remained of a boss only. It was an hour to end our war.
My alliance was damaged. They provide a time of 24 hours to play the war. They can not penalize us for emergency maintenance, and we would win.
Fun fact........ MCOC has had more issues and less compensation since they were sold.
It won't. There has been more emergency maintenance in the last 2 months than ever before and none have had any compensation. I bet if you allowed everyone to buy another summoner choice crystal you guys could make a couple mill without giving anything away for free and make the player base happy. But that's not the Kabam way so don't hold your breath.
This is absolutely not true. The Goldblum challenege crashes almost as soon as it was live. I timed myself and was well within the cutoff times but my “downtime” was not accounted for. Multiple tickets to support were brushed off, blamed my device, blamed my connection etc. Eventually they even acknowledged that I was affected but would not do anything about it.
Sorry to anyone who was doing a legends run, it’s toast.
I'm seeing a lot of chatter from Summoners asking about the Scheduled Maintenance tonight, but I can confirm that we do not have any Maintenance Scheduled for this evening. While we usually do have on Tuesdays, this is not always the case, and we always make sure to give a heads up when there is one coming.
We are still looking into the cause of this outage, and are working to get the game back up and running as soon as we can.
Why you people defend kabam is beyond me! If not for maintence they may have won!
It does not matter if you had the time or not. War is strategy. And not all players can play at the same time. If we know how much time we have, we play with it.
