Battleground and MCOC cheating

tbarr1977

Ever since the new season of Battlegrounds started, I am constantly being out matched by way stronger players. Out of the last 25 matches I've only won 4 preventing me from advancing to the next level and constantly giving me the same champions in my deck preventing me from winning as well. I have email Kabam several times letting them know what was going on and the refuse to do anything about it. Why can they set it up that each level plays their own level, ie legends fight legends, valiant fights valiant and so on. This directly is a violation of their own terms of service...Kabaam is cheating to force lower level players to spend money on boost/items which doesn't even guarantee a win when you purchase items. I've purchased the victory shield 9 times and got out matched every time losing all shields so I would have to spend more money to get more. I'm currently seeking an attorney for this and starting a class action against Kabam because they refuse to do anything about it. Plus this game is very addictive which causes more money to be spent. If anyone is interested in joining this class action let me know. I have screenshots of my last 25 that I shows I've been out matched each time. The four wins were by luck. Kabam doesn't want this to be a level playing field so they can make more money.

Tldr: thinks something is wrong with matchmaking when of course there isn't and somehow that equals cheating and makes kabam greedy

You are not "supposed to advance"...
Let me know when you find a lawyer. I will gladly lose 100 matches in a row if I can get some settlement money, oh **** I shouldn't have said this here...

Because when matchmaking was like that lower accounts had an easier time getting to the higher level rewards. But I'm sure that would be fair in your eyes.
Don't worry, you'll have the little league soon with matchmaking tailored to your wants and rewards tailored to your future complaints.
Good luck with the lawsuit. Let us know which lawyer takes your money so we know to never use their crooked rears for anything ever.

I can't even imagine how hard the lawyer will be laughing when they are asked to sue a company because a player lost some matches lol

Who wants in on this class action lawsuit. Free compensation from Kabam is one thing but free money is another level. As long as I don't have to pay a penny, I'm in. Just in case by some miracle you somehow win this insane lawsuit. Good luck bud, don't spend too much money trying to get nothing in return.

I'm currently seeking an attorney for this and starting a class action against Kabam because they refuse to do anything about it.

No, you’re not. You’re just elevating your complaints to laughing stock by claiming this.

Kabam doesn't want this to be a level playing field so they can make more money.

You don’t seem to be aware of this, but Kabam cannot make a competitive game mode where everyone wins, nor do they want to. Every win by a player comes at the expense of a loss from another player. The only way you could be winning more matches is if someone else lost them. Kabam does not make extra money from “unfair match ups.” Regardless of who matches with who, exactly one player wins and one player loses.

Once upon a time BG used to match players by roster/deck strength, so that individual matches were more “fair.” The problem was as I mentioned, the only way for lower progress players to win more was for higher progress players to lose more. Uncollected players with trivial rosters and decks were getting into GC while veterans Paragon players were stuck unable to progress, because high progress players were matching against much stronger players while weaker players only had to beat other weaker players to progress. This was unacceptable.

There are players, and I suspect you’re one of them, that believe the game owes you progress. If you beat up other weaker players and progress you just deserve that progress, while if players vastly stronger than you get stuck because they have to match against even stronger players that’s just too bad for them. That’s “fair,.” But in this game, we don’t penalize players for being veterans, for building stronger rosters, and for ranking up stronger decks. Stronger players than you will have an advantage over you, because they are supposed to. This has nothing to do with making more money. This has to do with making a choice. Do we allow players to have an advantage in BG when they progress in the game in general, or do we penalize them for progressing in the game by giving weaker players easier paths to promote in BG. This game chooses the former over the latter.

You have things completely backwards. You think Kabam refuses to change BG match making into a roster based system that you think is more fair. But instead, it *was* like that in BG and Kabam *actively changed it* to remove that form of match making and replace it with what we have now. They didn’t refuse to do it your way, they removed your way from the game deliberately.

Now, no one thinks the current system is perfect, and Kabam has mentioned looking into ways to smooth out the match making system more. The current system was a first attempt to do that with VT restructuring. The difficulty jump used to be much worse than it is now, insofar as it was a lot more binary. But ultimately, to promote higher you’re eventually going to have to face the stronger players ahead of you, because anything else is unfair to the players we ask to play the game and progress their rosters.

Now, on the off chance you find an attorney dumb enough to take this case on, by all means ask him or her to reach out to me and I will explain the situation to them before they get in too deep. There is zero chance for success, and I would hate for them to take on such a case on contingency.

Actually, any lawyer dumb enough to take this case probably deserves to eat those costs on contingency.

Or is it that your afraid to face someone at your own level? Bully

Update I found an attorney that will take this on. For all you haters, keep wasting your money while I get rich. I didn't have to pay a penny for this. Kabam is ripping you all of and you allow it to happen. Their system is rigged, they have employees that play the game and set it up to their advantage to make non employees pay more money over and over. It's always the same players and alliances on top.

You're wrong, I'm guessing you are one of the legends that is afraid of facing other legends and losing. All because you don't want to lose Either that or you don't participate in BG at all and you like stirring stuff up.

Is this broken cos I click on go now and it takes me to story quests plus when I do win a fights it BG it just stays at 1

Do you participate in the battlegrounds? What's your current level ie legends, variant.? Are you able to get the points needed to get all the milestones?.:Are you spending money to keep your current status? Then losing wasting your money either making you spend more money or getting knocked down starting at the bottom again? Then you have no idea what's going on

When the system prevents you from advancing and obtaining milestones, it is. Just recently I spend over 3000 elder marks, I got out matched every time with a legend champions. , I'm not talking about 100 points here or there, I'm talking about the opponent top 10 champions being 10,0000 to 20000 higher than my top champion at 35k

tbarr1977

To prove my point, whether you think this is right or wrong, list your just level ie legend, valiant, Paragon etc... in your comments. I bet all the people who think this is ridiculous are legend status and don't want to spend their money fighting someone the same level as them….but it's okay for a lower level player to spend their money trying to maintain the level their at.

Just like any other reward, it should be tiered when opening a gem or chest. So each level gets the appropriate reward for their level, there is no fear that weaker players are advancing to threaten the top players. That's what the top players are worried about being overthrown by a weaker player.

This is a problem and Kabam refuses to fix it because of the amount of money they make by anyone who is not a legend spending their money to either keep where they are at or trying to get the champions they need to have a slim change of winning.

There are too many players on this game to consistently be out matched by stronger players. Which is another basis for a CAL.
