What's happening Kabam?

CrashOutCrashOut Member Posts: 16
Seems like everything is going south right now.

BG, the main reason most people spemd on the game, has had a single rewards update since October 2023, 16 months.
YouTubers are literally posting videos saying it needs to change, Epic Whale is saying he'll stop spending and yet ZERO response from Kabam

AQ Raid has finally had a reward update but normal AQ hasn't? We don't even get t3a, 75% of AQ is ****!

EQ has nothing, like nothing. Paragauntlet isn't even worth the rewards not mind still being held behind TB 100%

And the last live stream just felt like a sale presentation, I want Kabam to sell, I like buying stuff but this latest plat track is literally worse than the last since you've taken away the miniscule ammount of 7* shards at the end, why? And for a champ we know nothing about, what if he's a dudd?

And Dave is finally talking on forums but I don't see much value on what is being said, comments on we will improve, improve how? The excuse of "last team did this for 8 years, we've been doing it for 8 months" isn't good enough, not when you have a player base asking for answers and you don't respond. It's pretty simple forum managers manage the forums. We still have highlighted posts from a year ago on forums, that's not managing the forums guys.

I don't know, the game is just stale. I've done 2 paths of epoch because I can't be bothered to chase a r4 who's main use is BG when Kabam don't care about BG so why should I?

    The username checks out. I agree that the game rewards need a boost, but specifically calling out Dork when he has been super active the last few days (which was the weekend btw), seems a bit unnecessary. There’s a way to communicate how you feel without calling out specific people who have been very clear they want to improve on how much they communicate and improve the game

    I could have said Community team, but Dork is the head of the team so either way I'd be calling him out.

    I love that he wants to improve, but what does that look like? He hasn't given us anything, that's like you're Mrs cheating on you and saying she'll do better in the future, do better by not doing it or by hiding it 😂 i don't know, I like clear messages not hopes and wishes
    How about responding to multiple threads over the weekend when he had no obligation to? Does that not communicate that he clearly cares and wants to improve?

    I've avoided posting for a long time, but now I feel the only reason I play the game is because I'm in a masters ally so need to war and AQ, I want to want to play the game again but I don't see anything getting better, just continue to get worse
    So you feel because you decided to play with the big boys it's now time to speak up? And not before? Sounds like your probably spending more money than you'd like.

    If you go back in the your can se there add the titant shard from bonus if you buy so that one don’t count if you watch the live stream you know they working one EQ. So another point just completely fails

    I'm not sure what your first sentence means? The titan shards are somewhere else?

    Working one EQ? I think you mean a new one but that doesn't give much, they were working on masters 2.0 for a long time and that never happened.

    Just because I don’t agree with your avenue of communication, it doesn’t mean I don’t agree that the rewards are outdated (see my first reply). I do hope Kabam releases a statement regarding the current state of rewards and how they plan on addressing it. But just because we hope it, doesn’t mean it will happen

    I don't quite get why everyone is just coming here to argue?

    The fact is the rewards across the game are out dated, they're not being looked at often enough and the forum team aren't easing the player base.

    A simple post from Kabam giving a real response is all im hoping for, a guarantee to clean up forums, respond to major repeating issues properly with strong/direct response and a plan going forward to say they expect to update rewards every 3-6 months or something sort of time scale because right now

    BG rewards have no update in site

    EQ update will drop Valaint when the next title is released

    AQ updates are multi years down the line

    If nothing is going to change, that's fine I'll stop playing and maybe pick this back up in a year or maybe never I don't know. I just want to know how much more time I have to waste waiting for Kabam to catch up and will they ever keep up

    The amount of people who think you can just snap your fingers and make everything better is crazy. Just because Dave isn't saying what you specifically want him to, doesn't make what he says invalid.

    While I agree that rewards could be updated, I disagree with your contention that "BG is the main reason people spend on the game".

    None of us have the numbers on if BG participation dips then overall spending dips.

    If your contention was true, Kabam would definitely make sure to optimize BGs, since they are so money hungry (as their "sales focused" livestream implies). We may dislike how nakedly greedy the platinum track seems, but the fact that Kabam has moved from it being a once a year thing to pretty much an every 3-4 months thing, implies that this is a fairly lucrative source of money (ie. Players are largely spending on this). And this spending is occurring despite stale BG store rewards.

    As a comparison, Banquet 2024 seems to be financially bountiful for Kabam, despite player complaints about the Banquet (and player complaints about every game mode in the game). So that right there is already an example about the disconnect between unhappy youtubers and spending.

    Your point is beyond pointless and irrelevant.... i said a road map, when was the last time you heard any mention of BG updates or AQ updates? There's been none. My expectation isn't a fix right now, it's a promise that rewards will be updated timely

    And I never said his comments were invalid, I said there wasn't much value in there.

    Do you just enjoy arguing over petty details you've made up yourself? Otherwise I don't know you're making up expectations that I don't think many people have
    There's a reason we don't get roadmaps. We got one one time, and they failed to live up to nearly every timeline they put out or nearly all the features they discussed such as masteries 2.0 and wish crystals. Why would they put out a road map if they don't need any of the set expectations they give. That just sets themselves up for failure. Though I'm sure some people here would love nothing more.

    Petty details? Lol. It's your whole argument. Road maps are a terrible idea as the community has proven they can't handle being given a roadmap.

    If there's no updates to give, they can't put anything.

    1 Spender stopping ain't gonna do shirt. Spenders will spend. Nothing will change until "A Large part of spenders' close their wallets.
    This includes all sigil and plat card buyers.

    I'm refraining to comment on other issues raised in this thread.

    Just to be clear, I agree with OP about buffing rewards, sorry if that got lost somewhere, all of the areas that were mentioned need some serious help

    This sounds more of a self advice.
    And the purpose of this comment is what exactly? He's absolutely correct In this statement. Some of yall really do be commenting just to get another number on the forums. Ever remember the saying, if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all? Words to live by.
