**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.

    Listen up Summoner,

    I’m settin’ up a little salvaging operation for a while, and I've got this here button that's connected to a big ol' bomb. I can't have it lyin' around my workshop while I got lots of people comin' through, so I need someone to guard it for me while my Workshop is open. The fate of the Universe lies on your shoulders. Now, whatever you do, DON’T. PUSH. THIS. BUTTON. Because that will set off the bomb immediately and we’ll all be dead. So take the button and keep it in your inventory. If you don’t press it, I may even be able to swing a ride in the Milano and a nice little certificate of appreciation for ya. Wouldn’t that be nice? If you do press it, well, like I said. We'll all die.

    To keep you distracted from pressin’ that button, I’ve also collected a buncha stuff from the hoards of that evil “King Groot” guy, so I’ve got a countdown to my Workshop's grand opening set up for ya to give some of it away. Make sure to come back and check your messages again tomorrow, ‘cause that’s when it’s kickin’ off!

    Just wanna re-iterate before I head out here that YOU SHOULD NOT PRESS THIS BUTTON. Don’t do it. Alright, I’m trustin’ you.

    It appears that about 1/3 of Summoners could not keep their hands off that button. These players will forever be labelled "Button Pushers".

    For those of you who did not betray Rocket's trust and managed to hold onto a Death Button without pressing it - you will be rewarded shortly.

    Number of Summoners that claimed the Death Buttons: 1,370,974
    Number of Button Pushers: 435,124
    Number of Non-Button Pushers: 935,850

    Kabam Commish, this isn't right....Kabam Miike came out with a post saying that the prizes were the same whether we pushed the button or didn't push it otherwise I'd have never opened mine and I'm sure other players wouldn't have as well.

    I'm nothing will be done about it, but kinda bad info to put out there when it's not true

    That's not actually what we said. We said that the rewards would be same no matter when you pushed the button, and then re-iterated over and over NOT to push the Button.





    I'm not gonna look for the old post but you post made it sound like go ahead and push the button, there's no diff either way. When I read that, I pushed the button on my account after, literally minutes after...if you had to the ability to check, you can...

    I get mistakes happen, it just sucks cause I wouldn't have pushed it. I knew what the prizes were and they were nominal if anything...

    Anyway, thx for the response

    Wow that's awesome free rewards. Thanks kabam, let's me open a 4* crystal now

    Edit: I got Thor Jane foster. Not happy anymore. Can you take the stuff back?

    The stun lock queen is bad?

    TBH I havnt used her at all, I just don't really need another mystic haha. I have 4 mystic champs I'd rank over her, I guess there are worse champs but she's distinctly average to me
  • Ghost_BlaZeGhost_BlaZe Posts: 21
    I was expecting more shards than that. The people who pushed the button only got half the rewards and no basic, but to Higher players, basics are rarely a problem. I myself have 8 of them after I used 6 last week. It's good for free stuff, but that's basically the free stuff we got for just playing the game way back when. I don't know where those messages and the Collecotr's/Grandmaster's lofty standards are now

    Thanks Kabam! I will say, I read what Mike said one time, and did not push the button. It was clear to me, and apparently 2/3 of the rest of us.
    Of all the things I can find to complain about, these FREE rewards are not one of those things. Well done Kabam.
    Too bad you guys are unlikely to do something like this again due to the whining of the button pushers.

    There were people asking if they should push the button literally a dozen posts after Miike posted his explanation to not push the button. The fact that they had to repeat this constantly, along with many other players repeating in constantly, doesn't mean it wasn't clear. People were misremembering things that were posted that same day in the days after the button was released. Every Kabam post said the same thing: don't push the button. No post said to push the button. No post implied you should push the button. This was as clear as is humanly possible to be clear.

    Rocket disabled the Button. It will get cleaned up next week. (Rocket Button = 1 Gold)

    Out of curiosity, I have not received my rewards for not pressing the button. Anyone out there still waiting for rewards?
  • Out of curiosity, I have not received my rewards for not pressing the button. Anyone out there still waiting for rewards?

    Do you still have the Button in your Items? If so, can you please reach out to our Support Team and they can look into it for you? If you do not, it may have been because you didn't claim the button to begin with, in which case we won't be able to do anything unfortunately :disappointed:
  • How come I'm the only person who got this reward

    This is just a visual glitch. If you Claim the reward, then restart the game, you'll find your Crystals and T4B have been claimed, as well as the title.
