Alliance War Rewards: We Need Action, Not Promises

Alright, let’s cut to the chase—AW rewards for Platinum 3 and below are LONG overdue for an update. We’ve been grinding, dealing with game-breaking bugs (shoutout to the medium intercept bug that deletes half our health), yet we’re still sitting on outdated rewards that don’t match the effort we’re putting in.
This isn’t to take away from those in Platinum 2 and higher—y’all earned your spot. But the war experience is becoming more frustrating than fun for everyone. And with no real compensation for these issues, how are we supposed to stay motivated?
Kabam, we don’t need more vague responses like “AW and AQ rewards to follow later this year.” That doesn’t address the issue—it just pushes it down the road. We need real changes, and we need them now.
And for those sticking to the boycott—stay strong. This isn’t just about Battlegrounds; it’s about significant areas of the game that need real improvements. The longer we accept silence, the longer they’ll keep giving us the bare minimum.
What do you all think? How long until we see some real action? Please be respectful and share your thoughts.

Yes, P3 now gets a full T4A, but let’s put that in perspective—when you compare P3 to P4, the difference is minimal. Meanwhile, when you look up to P2, the rewards jump drastically with Titan Shards, Sig Stones, and T7B. That’s the issue—progression should feel earned, not artificially locked behind an ever-widening gap.
And as for ‘controlling our own fate’—sure, skill and effort play a role, but when reward structures favor those already ahead while neglecting those trying to climb, it creates an uphill battle that isn’t just about effort, it’s about access to resources. All we’re asking for is a more balanced system that makes the climb feasible and incentivizing, not a brick wall.
This isn’t about making everything ‘easy’—it’s about making the game engaging and rewarding for all tiers. The current model is causing stagnation, and if Kabam wants AW to remain competitive, they need to address this instead of just expecting players to ‘figure it out’ with outdated rewards.
You originally said P3 and below already got a reward update. I asked you to show me where, because from what I’ve seen, the updates mostly benefited higher tiers. Now you’re arguing that improving lower-tier rewards would make high-level players drop down and push others back. That’s not what I said, nor is it the issue at hand.
Let’s stay on topic—P3 and below haven’t seen meaningful improvements in rewards compared to higher tiers, making it significantly harder to climb. That’s the problem, and that’s what Kabam needs to address
AW and AQ rewards have been neglected for too long, and lower-tier players feel the impact. If Kabam truly cares, they should communicate a concrete plan and timeline instead of vague statements that lead to more waiting. We’ve seen this pattern before—why should we assume things will be different this time without actual follow-through?
The truth is that the majority of the player base is in P3 and below, and the gap between these tiers and P2+ has only widened. If you believe that simply asking for better progression incentives is the same as asking for a ‘handout,’ then you’re missing the entire point.
At this rate, we’re just going in circles, and it’s clear this discussion isn’t productive. You can stay firm in your stance, but facts are facts—P3 and below have not seen meaningful updates compared to higher tiers, and that’s what needs to change. If you have actual proof that disproves this, feel free to provide it. Otherwise, there’s no point in continuing this back-and-forth
As with the majority of content in the game the bottom line/root issue is this: Effort to Reward ratio is horrible
Now, as it happens.. I love AW, but that's because it's fun for me.. if I played it for rewards, that would sad though
Won't actually pull up the highlight user selection to pick it, but when posted it will indeed let you click on it and take you to their profile.
(I assume it will also trigger a notification to them as well)
No need for trying to get putting it in “ quotes “ to work. (which only sometimes works, maybe depending on OS or browser/more ?)
For those not in the computer programming world, hex 0x20 being the code for a SPACE in the ASCII table. And so often when characters in a string can not directly use symbols like a Space (because that would trigger a separation of words, or similar for other “reserved” symbols), you'll see %20 in place of a Space (or their ASCII codes for other “reserved” symbols) in strings like Web Addresses, etc.
Manually typing that here when trying to Tag mods that have a space in their name seems to do the job then.
