Caps Commissary Event looking spicy

From the in-game message it looks like it includes a trade in store including gold and awakening gems!

Can't wait for the 22nd now let's go

I mean the event isn't over yet, but so far it's not looking great. One of the most disappointing and underwhelming things you've done in a long time. And I was on your side, advising people to manage expectations for this. My expectations were almost non-existent and this has still managed to disappoint.

I'm really trying to reserve my judgement for the final day, but that final day really needs to introduce a lot more than just a single "Loyalty selector" in order to make this worth it.

I just don't understand their marketing. Maybe last day will have amazing deals but why create such hostility until then? They really need input from CCP on deals. If anyone thinks 550 units for a 4* that most aren't even good is worth it at this stage of the game then I can assure you it's not. I just don't get it at all.

It might have looked spicy but tasted horrible. Won't recommend this dish. Where's the chef?

This event is garbage.

"My expectations were almost non-existent and this has still managed to disappoint."

Exactly! I expected nothing and somehow got less than nothing. That takes real talent to pull off. 😆

Sep 22: Well, I have some gold on hand so there’s something. Guess we’ll see the good stuff on the 24th.

The one chip challenge literally killed a kid, if we want to talk about literal spiciness.

Yes i'm sending the same meme to todays offers

I really want to hear from kabam on how a player is to reach the 4500 point milestone realistically…but every single offer? Is that the only plan?

Complete all BG milestones, smash AQ/buy energy with units. Will get you much of the way there. Buy a couple offers.

I got IBS from the spicyness

Today's "deals" are horrible. No 1 besides hoarders have that many units just sitting around. Thought @Kabam Miike said this wasn't going to be a spending event

He also claimed hoarding wouldn’t be necessary and yet here we are.

It s not. I still have around 2k t3cc crystals in my stash, sitting there untouched.

You guys could easily drop this pile of **** on 29th all at once but y'all decided to torture us like this 🤡 Lmfao

I’ll give ‘em this… spreading it out like this has driven up the community engagement and camaraderie! Look how much fun we’re having with how much of a stinker we all agree this is!

Maybe the real Caps Commissary event is the Kabam we roasted along the way

tbh i disagree this is the worst thing for community grinding that side quest makes everyone not want to do it its a pain to due unless your dropping a good band on this game

plus buying all the bundles and selectors and for people saying do the bg solo event kinda hard when they did this mid bg and people moved up and took 60% of the quest already

Setting expectations: This is not like the Gold or trade-in events of the past. We're purposely trying to move away from huge sales and events like those that encourage months of hoarding. This is a much smaller-scale event entirely.

Not trying to dull your hype, but in the past, I've seen people set their own expectations really high, and then be disappointed when they're not met.

This is not to say that this isn't a cool event with some really rad deals to be found, because there is!

"Cool event with some really rad deals to be found"? Must be something spectacular on the horizon to elevate this event for people to agree with this take.

Does anyone know what is the most viewed thread not created by a Kabam employee? Because this one is pulling big numbers so i have to assume it's really up there

Corkscrew

So to take a character from r1 to r4 it’s actually 13 million, not the 10 million they originally quoted haha.

You use more gold during the course of a rank up with catalysts. The gems have the benefit of replacing the catalysts using gold instead and giving you a discount on the gold you would have spent anyway.

Everyone is at different points in the game, I don't do arena, yet I've never had a gold issue. Others will be in a different position to myself.

The moleman nerf fiasco was really big if I recall

yeah paying a couple hundred bucks for some 4 and 5 star champs that i will never use as a Thronebreaker!! Rad deals!! Or 8888 units for a 3 to 4 star rank up gem really rad man!! Or giving a 6 star Awakening gem for 25 sig stones my heart cant take it so rad!!

I’m not understanding what you’re saying…

The gold cost of this rank up is exactly the same regardless of if you’re using catalysts or if you’re using a rank up gem. As you can see here.

And if you’re saying that the catalysts “saved” are what’s saving you gold, that doesn’t make sense because gold is for all intents and purposes not a currency you use to obtain catalysts. They’re won from quests or obtained in glory/loyalty/battleground stores etc
