Level 1 is not a rank u
It's definitely a mistake in how the objectives were coded. It counts total number of rankups instead of total level. In livestreams the total level rewards were advertised so hopefully it'll be corrected
I another post, which unfortunately went a bit off the rails, Rex posted he would talk to the team about this. Until now there doesn’t seem to have been an update, though.
Would love to see this reflect total level instead of total rankups, being 2 away would be a lot better then being 8! Lol
It says "complete X collective rank ups." So yes it's counting rankups not the total level.
It’s a massive oversight on Kabams end. They advertised an average level requirement of 10, 15 and 25 yet in game due to level 1 not counting towards the milestones it currently requires an average level of 11, 16 and 26 average level. @Kabam (Osaurus) Rex said he would look into it but the post he said that on got closed so not sure the plans here.
They advertised one thing on stream and then it was setup differently when it hit the game. I spent 3 days breaking down the obvious facts that this was not intentional but the CCP guardians will be quick to hop down your throat and attempt to make the bug make sense so don’t waste your time 🤣👌🏼 Mike is apparently talking to the team about a fix for this, all we can do is wait for another official response.
Lol
they also advertised on stream the tier rewards would be received at an average level of 10, 15 and 25 not 11, 16 and 26 which is how it is setup currently in game. You can even go to the collectives live stream on YouTube and listen to @Kabam (Osaurus) Rex at 47:00-47:15 where out of his own mouth he explains and references getting the tier 1 rewards AT an average level of 10, not 10 additional levels past the initial level 1 which is an average level of 11.
The math is offset by one unintentionally currently, seems to be a mix up on numbers between the guy who made the solo objective milestones and the people who set up the rewards and the slide show/info to give Mike for the stream. It’s a big oversight and miscommunication behind the scenes, but like I said on another post, Kabams oversights and miscommunication should never harm the player. They advertised 10, 15 and 25 so that’s what it should be in game, an average level of 15 to finish all solo objective would be 84 additional ranks past level 1 if it intentionally doesn’t count, currently in game it’s asking for 90 which is an average level of 16.
But if level 1 is supposed to count 90 is accurate, we just need Kabam to credit every player 6 points via the mail to fix the issue.
Regardless though it’s an issue and not our fault. It’s either level one does not count intentionally and the milestones were setup incorrectly to not match what was said on stream to us and the milestones need adjusted accordingly to match that or level 1 should count and every summoner needs credited 6 points in order to fix the issue.
No matter which way you look at it though it’s a fault on Kabams end and needs adjusted so it matches what was advertised to us on stream.
This is like a new game mode releasing being advertised on stream to require level 64 however when it releases in game it requires level 65. Put a 30 day time gate on that event like the collectives rewards and now we’ve created false hope in any player who supported their livestream and got advertised a game mode they’d be able to play and earn rewards from to ultimately find out you do not meet the requirements due to an oversight and now you’re just screwed and can’t get the rewards advertised to you. That’s not a scenario we would be ok with, nobody should be ok with this either. It needs fixed, point blank period.
Again no one in Kabam test their own product
Let the players test the new features and make noises in the forums
Den Kabam will decide what they will do weeks later
Here’s a fun example for the people rushing to argue with the facts I just laid out, read this scenario then look back at the issue with collectives and please try to argue it again. It very clearly needs fixed. New stellar piece gets advertised on stream
Stellar scarlet witch is here and the first piece is achieved through battlegrounds !! Reach Diamond rank to get your piece in the upcoming season!!
season arrives
The stellar scarlet witch piece actually requires Diamond 1, not “reaching Diamond” which is what was advertised on stream and would be Diamond 5.
Just a “typo” right? A silly oversight? Who cares… it would cause an uproar and immediate warrant a fix to match what was said on stream 🤣
This is the SAME thing 🤦🏻 Anyone trying to combat it and make it make any kind of sense is just blind or purposely trying to pretend like nothing is wrong.
We were advertised one thing and when released it was something else, please fix it.
Items sold 0... a "college professor" would know the difference…
Ahhh yes the word “event” clear as day in the description being used for the word advertise.
hmm almost as if this was an event with solo objectives/milestones… oh wait it is! No wonder I keep using the word advertised 💡🤦🏻🙄
Or are you implying collectives isn’t monetized in any way? Can’t be that, this is the most monetized function the game has ever received.
First thing first, I'm with you on this subject and a lot of people gets what you are saying.
but you need to calm down a bit.
Your message has been received. So let the dev discuss and come out with a statement. That's all. We just have to wait now.
You have tagged dinoMan on every comment, he is a messanger, he is not a dev. He is the face. Buy patience my guy.
Actually the key word on your nonsense is advertise. Nothing was advertised, nothing was sold. There is nothing you could have done ahead of time to complete the objectives and there is nothing you can do if you don't have the materials to reach it
Incorrect, you can very easily spend money to purchase crystals to open up and progress your collectives forcefully, especially with ascensions giving a total of 1100 points.
Pretending collectives isn’t very clearly the most monetized section of the game now is ridiculous.
what does “having options to complete them ahead of time or at release” have to do with the numbers being incorrect? One thing was said and something else released.
It’s not rocket science, it’s wrong and needs fixed.
We don't know where the error stemmed from. Did the people who made the stream slide make an error and misunderstand the objectives? Or did the people who made the objectives make an error and misunderstand the intended number of ranks needed?
If it was the people who made the stream slide who made the error, do you think you're entitled to rewards you were never intended to get?
Yeah yeah and if my grandma had 2 wheels she would be a bicycle... Rofl
False advertisement based on would have, could have; but didn't....
Because they are so close, yet so far from being rewarded it almost seems unfair to them 🤣
If that’s what was directly told to us yes, scroll up and read the example I gave for this exact scenario but it replaces collective solo objectives with a new stellar piece obtained via battleground. If this same scenario happened for a stellar piece nobody would care how big or small the oversight was. We were told one thing and when released it was another. It needs fixed to match what was shown on stream, point blank period.
The team who coded the objetive: absolutley Not. They were given simple task to make an objetive of 90 points.
But
The team who decided the number 90 is to be blamed. As 15x6 is 90. And they forgot to add the one lol.
Clear to assess that 10 15 25 are supposedly the benchmarks, 11, 16 and 26 doesn't look nice either.
_-_-_-_-_
We should be waiting for an official response, that's all I could add in this subject.
Again like I told you on the other post I have all the milestones, but I know plenty of people this issue is affecting and I’m not going to pretend the issue doesn’t exist because I have all the rewards.
I’m not scared to point out a blatant issue that is holding the community back. When a company says something you should hold them to their word, not the finished product. Just because something changed along the lines behind the scenes doesn’t mean we don’t hold the accountable to what they initially said to our face.
FFS!!! Give it a rest!!! You've been harping the same $hit over and over again in multiple posts over the past few days. Kabam is aware of it! If it needs any fixing, it'll get fixed!!
The only thing that needs to get corrected is the slide itself!!
I could say the same about the oafs ignoring the clear issue and commenting on every post trying to pretend the issue doesn’t exist. It goes both ways brother lol, just because I have more to say doesn’t make it any different.
It's funny to me how so many people say the slide is wrong and not the way the objective was written. Pretty sure Mike writes the slides based on what he and the team discussed and intended to happen. Plus the math showing that the slide is correct and the objective is wrong. But it is what it is.....
Oh, and also the fact that the event went live 2 days early, and the solo objectives didn't go live till an hour later, that should really tell you where the error was most likely made.
You guys might want to hold onto the pitchforks till they come out with an official response. Give them time to stipulate the situation.
Keep up with the thread and try not make this ugly like previous thread, it will get closed too.
