They can't even identify modders and arena bot users by programming.
Paper is patient and cannot distinguish between truth and lies.
No offense. 😁✌
I guarantee this is how you felt typing out that last line lmao
🙄
I hope they keep Alliance War on hold till these "rewards" have been clawed back.
1. side quest error and going through all the tracks in one go.
2. 1250 crystals.
3. chests in the last task do not disappear in the task with 7 * and you can pick up 8 pieces of ISO 10.000 many times in a row.
4. Issues with BG, Alliance War and more... what's next?
But you get the idea
1250 crystals - approx 250 6* champions (20% drop rate) who are off-screen.
Then you've also got enough 6* shards for another 200 from duping 1000 5* champions (every champion in the game, three times over)
So you've got 450 6* pulls in the bank - enough to own and Awaken pretty much every 6* champion in the game, too.
You've got 41,250 7* shards already; and at the same hit rate, can expect another 33,000 when you open your 200 6* crystals for a grand total of 74,250 7* shards - essentially five sparkly new 7* champions coming to Cavalier players, on top of their 450 6* champs, 1000 5* champions, and almost incalculable Iso.
It's really not hard to see that this is a game-breaking mistake. There is no possibility that Kabam could leave this unchanged.
No way that those people didn’t understand it was a bug.
This screenshot has been shared around before:

So what you're suggesting is that Kabam gives everyone in the game:
- Five sparkly new 7* champions
- 450 6* champs
- 1000 5* champions
- Almost incalculable Iso.
If you think that's going to even things out without irrevocably breaking the balance of the game, then you're just not thinking about the problem.Also: I don't know the process Kabam uses to reset stuff like this, but I'd strongly recommend that you don't use your hundreds of new 6* champions and new 7* champions to complete any significant content.
If you decide you're going to romp through the Abyss or Gauntlet with those new champions, then (1) you'll lose that progress, and (2) since you'll then be deliberately exploring resources you know you shouldn't have, you can definitely expect a ban.
So don't do that.
Going to be interesting to watch the leaderboard of the Level Up event.
It's been a while now, but all the communication about this bug is on the forums. Which as we all know, just represents the tip of the iceberg in people playing the game.
With an error of this magnitude, shouldn't there be some kind of in-game mail?
I'm assuming it will take more than a couple of hours for your team to clean this up and remove the undeserved 'rewards'.
So whilst I know there are Terms of Service that we should be familiar with, would it not be good communication to warn the beneficiaries of the Mythic crystals bug and the Side-Event Exploration bug not to Exploit their 'rewards' to complete Everest content or smash their way up the Battleground ranks?
As you say yourself, the less they abuse their rewards, the easier it is for your team to clean it up.
from 1250 and you think that was normal when opening them
i bet you was so excited while popping those crystals open
i know most of us like free things yeah but this is KABAM we are talking about
Such enormous crystals can never be a free gift when we know how much KABAM likes their $$$$
I'm just not sure what's going on behind the scenes, but this mistake is absolutely monumental (especially considering that the price of a Mythic crystal is iirc 10k shards?)
Those who opened all 1250 crystals deserve at least a 7 day ban.
Imagine only the time you need to open all these crystals, that would be several minutes, that they had to reconsider their actions.
Kabam needs to strip back the rewards from every single account that is involved, no matter the potential side effects on these accounts (losing progress or other crystals), by trying to bring back the accounts to their pre-opening state.
Any potential loses should not worry Kabam at this point, and they should consider it as additional punishment for exploiting a bug to their 100% knowledge.
If Kabam don’t go harsh on these TOS violators, then any improvements they’ve done past months on cheating would be overshadowed and negated by this.
Not to refer the fact, that this would be a major hit at the game economy.
Devaluing 6*s, but especially 7*s this way, will prevent people from throwing real $ at the game to acquire them.
Who would pay for fragments of something others got for free?
This is so messed up 😠
Stop playing the naive card.
If I was Kabam I would give you the 7 day vacations package, to prevent others from exploiting that much, other bugs in the future.
Do you even can imagine how much additional work is for them to revert accounts and take back the rewards?
Let alone the money cost.
