At the end of day, all it takes is a teeny bit of communication. Grouse about what they did, defend it…it doesn’t really matter. Kabam excels at alienating their player base by not communicating. . It isn’t hard and would give them so much more goodwill. It’s kind of mind boggling.
They did but it wasn't a full 7* iirc (which is what the key is) but the same bundles had extra stuff when they went on sale again right before Christmas
It was the same as last year it was just a Crystal rather that’s a key
This was same case last year. Y’all should do research on events before swiping your credit cards Willy nilly
This is a poor take. A sale one year doesn't guarantee a similar one next year. For that matter, with all the noise surrounding the Banquet Event, I don't imagine many people saw the £50 bundles and thought "Hey, I'd better wait until Monday to see if they add free 7*s in there!"
Sure but in game it said keys would be included in odin offers, thus one would believe the 50$ offer from last year would be back as well.
I don’t whine much on here. But this isn’t a good move. I don’t remember these bundles changing like this before. They tried to redeem themselves with the milestones, but now they made it worse. This event doesn’t feel right.

The Sale Offers aren't the issue here - I was never going to spend on an Odin regardless of keys or not. The issue is the Valiant Only Webstore offer, which is almost identical to what we all bought, but now with a Key in which is MASSIVELY more valuable. That immediately makes the £50 offer way better, so anyone that bought it before has just missed out on guaranteed 7*s for spending the same money on essentially the same offer.
New offer is only for Valiant players. It still stings when you've purchased a couple of them. Stings even more with the utter failure of communications surrounding the event this year and Kabam Crashed's flippant comments that kicked things off on how they didn't feel they needed to release event details a few days prior to the actual event.
Last summer I bought a two way plane ticket to Italy for 50$ . It honestly boggles my mind that people spend that much money on bonus content (which you can get free with some minoreffort anyway) for a mobile game . Y’all must have money to burn
Honestly this game was going through a really great period up until the start of this event. I purchased the bundle to take me over the points threshold for a duped Isophyne. And I see this deal comes out literally 3 days later. What an absolute waste. Kabam really doesn’t value customers at all. Genuinely feel cheated. If I typed what I wanted to I’d probably get banned. Kabam this is really poor ethics and awful way to treat customers/players/people.

Yeah but one would assume if in game it ONLY said the odins would have it, they’d assume the bundles wouldn’t be a thing. But here we are. People assumed no bundles so they bought out what they could in the webstore
It was like this for years. If you rushed to spend money instead of waiting for the X mas sales its on the player But hey throwing more money into a horrible event is great.
It’s a very slimy move. Makes you wonder if teams even communicate with each other at Kabam as seems like every team is just doing their own thing and hoping for the best. I doubt they’ll do anything though it’ll be the usual “hard luck”.

My 13 year old gets $50 of Robux every month, which I have no idea what he does with, plus $100 allowance for youtube/twitch donations. Somewhere someone is probably complaining about his spending on some forum.
Sooo let me get this right. We spent money on event turns out there’s a **** percent chance of getting anything good. Once complained about enough instead of taking care of us who already spent money your just gonna release new bundles that we have to spend money on with the items in them that should of been there from the start.
This is a bridge too far for me. I've played this game for 10 years and haven't felt this ripped off for a very long time. It's very hard to make a case that this is anything other than an overt scam, and will severely damage the trust myself and others have when spending money on this game going forward unless they show good faith and resolve this situation. This is just insult to the injury that this event was to begin with.
Very bad on Kabam's part and very much a horrible way to do business along with the silence without any communication being deafening.
I figure the sales were designed and set up long before the discontent from the actual (very poor) "Grand" Banquet has been received, but regardless it's very filthy for this to happen to Valiant players after they already feel like progression title is worthless a year after release!
Something definitely needs to happen or I would expect many players to just stop their spending after this event forever until Kabam gets back in their good graces and admit they need to do better.
But that's just one man's humble opinion, and I am one to typically give Kabam the benefit of the doubt. But this time, too many errors that have added up to a poor end erasing all the good will and progress in 2024 they did for MCOC.
Btw, for everyone who says that there was a similar offer last year and ppl should ve expected it, if you go to the Glorious box, there s a small info thingie right next to the title, clearly stating where you can get your keys from: -Banquet Solo, Alliance and Realm Events, a rare drop rate from the crystals, and, "You can also gain 1 key for each purchase of the BANQUET ALL-FATHER ODIN'S VAULT." That s it, that ALL the places. Not any other returning offers.
