Change the game name to Marvel Community of Testers

That’s what we are really. Even after they said they would carry out extensive testing before releasing new content the following was allowed to get through.

A new "Disable Simultaneous Enemies" setting will be enable by default
- A new "Disable Swipe Enemies" will be added to the setting screen. It will be OFF by default so you will need to opt-in (this would replace Swipe enemies with Tap enemies)
- Fix to ensure settings and custom controls don't reset between sessions
- Fix for objective tracking for the Champion-specific Stage Clear Objectives
- Fix for the Muspelheim Metal (Impossible Difficulty) charting to make it more consistent on mobile and pc

What was the testing process here. Run it once on the easiest difficulty and hope it doesn’t crash?

They tried to incorporate mcoc elements (swipe, tap, hold, enemies coming from side) but failed. Not sure why Kabam didn't just copy Guitar Hero and make the enemies come vertically and we just tap the area where the notes are going

As always, things are tested, but us testing on a variety of devices can never fully compare to when its released and played on hundreds of different types of devices by many thousands of players. We definitely could have done better here, not denying that, but at least the first two are mostly tied into device specific issues which are difficult to forecast (though admittedly they are present on a wide number of devices).

Will be talking with the team to see where we can improve here internally cause at the end of the day we do not want y'all to feel this way. Will work on it!

I have a suggestion.

Pre-release a new type of content as an open beta with a reward for comments and trying it out.

Smaller build.

Players do not expect a polished build.

Everyone who comments and experiments get a reward for helping out.

Vs. Charging people for entry and being the testers

The frustration for me is not the game mode itself ,.,(literally invested an hour and glad I didn’t invest a single minute more).

I get branching out, but this as well as previous arcade games have received a great deal of negative feedback,..(albeit I don’t have privilege to see all the data),..it is time / manpower/ dollars spent into a half baked messy concoction that could have been invested elsewhere…such as:

More time/ manpower and dollars invested into AI fixes,.,bugged champion fixes,..the improvements to the changed EQ format that was discussed almost 1/2 a year ago,..etc.

To improperly quote the office this is a lose-lose-lose scenario.

Your team is spending time creating this content, then fixing it and simultaneously dealing with community complaints. Its man hours better spent on improving existing game modes that people have already positively reaponded to.

I can understand if the game was getting stale or if everything else was working as intended but that is clearly not the case here.

What will be the outcome? Even if you fix this and people play the mode, it will still be remembered as an unpleasant addition to the game and increase community alarm towards any new game modes Kabam releases. No doubt community has got more vocal because such badly planned modes are being released too frequently as of late.

In a world where your most successful event in 2 years (banquet 2025) is an event where you listened to the community and updated an existing previously well received mode based on feedback, shouldnt that be where your team puts its majority effort?

You say that but it comes down to skill issue at this point because not any other online game I play is in shambles as this one

Just.....so many questions. What.…? Why....? Who…? Where....to even start

We at least got some real bangers out of this though. Can't wait for the greatest hits album to be released on 8-track.
