Why did you repost this? That's not what she said at all.
Job half done @Ad0ra_ @Kabam Miike
If your gonna make a change take the time to do it right or not at all. After all the debacles with the bad updates you've pushed out you'd think you'd have figured that out...
Oh and what happened to the famed increase in comm/transparency and beta testing with this one...
Maybe the real issue is revenue's have dropped with the release of drop rates? Is that why we've been seeing so many deals on a nearly daily basis also?
U dont get to chose the champs u get rand whatever they say about AW being the focus then why dont they give t4cc and upgrade items as war rewards ? the things u get from AQ itself is like 1 in 100 for one upgrade item. and now they just made it even harder to do. Plus the season rewards are a joke for a 3 month war which eats up all resource and time that could be spend otherwise
purely nonsensical move from kabam
The Sentinels are objectively harder than the symbioids to fight. That's an undeniable fact. The problem the community is having is that the logical avenues would have been to leave AQ the same until a large update (including an update to the rewards) could be rolled out OR to increase the rewards along with rolling out this soft update until a large update could be completed. Even a small bump in rewards would have probably reduced activity in these complaint threads by 50%. Instead, the team decided to take the worst of both worlds and increase the difficulty while maintaining rewards, which is effectively a big slap to the face of the collective community.
When the symbioids were still around, I would often mix up my teams to keep things fresh. I'd brought just about every champ you can think of into AQ and I was able to deal with the symbioids. Admittedly, I haven't had to use any additional resources to deal with the Sentinels, but they have successfully killed several of my champions since the rollout. As I stated, these guys are objectively harder to kill than the symbioids.
I'm in the camp that would much rather see unique champions on every path. Adaptoids used to fill the map back when there weren't enough unique champs to fill the board. Now you've got plenty of champs to fill the boards. Get rid of Adaptoids/Symbioids/Ultron Drones/Deadpooloids/Sentineloids completely and just fill the map with the dozens of champs who aren't currently represented at all in AQ.
The developers thought that this was going to stay at the same level of difficulty? that's fine, just admit now it is not. And if you can compensate for the mistake it will be great.
Thanks the mods for reading all this s**tload of ranting and sorry for making you sad.
I emphasize with you gals and guys, luckily I'm not in your shoes!
Said that, I hate sentinels for all the well stated reasons of 32 pages of comments, I'm not going to add more.
Said that, I'm going to make a few proposals. Quite obvious I admit, but still I like it more than just saying "please roll back time and don't do it the way you did".
- Remove the third bar of power. They cannot shoot S3 anyway (luckily) and it only serves them to shoot our arses twice in a row.
- Reduce the rate at which they analyze: either reduce the amounts, increase the thresholds or do not consider multiple instances of the same repeated move more than once. Class disadvantage has also become NOT an option because of the extra boost they get ON TOP of the regular advantages.
I understand that the intent was to have the players adopt a different play style, but there are moves you simply CANNOT avoid (like dashing back twice to avoid their specials) They increase the analyze counter even if you dash back several times, which you have to do to bait those bloody specials, or even if you block a combo.
- Rethink the mechanics of the different sentinel classes. For one: the green one debuffs you when you KO it, which is often the way to apply armor breaks (i.e.: Hyperion S2. The Sentinel melts you after two or three S2s). If armor break "melts them", then please let us use it.
- Reduce health, or armor or both. They are double immune and armored as tanks, it takes forever to take them down. On top of this attack decreases with analyze charges.
- Increase the points they award when they die. at least let us climb the rewards ladder a little higher, even if you do not want to adjust the rewards (which you should, anyway...). The way you did you actually REDUCED them.
- Give us full retrocession tickets with ISO and gold, especially since the sentinels are going to stay with the next season. You cannot just say: "yeah, they are immune, but you know what? use another champ!" because most of us spent their hard earned resources in ranking up, guess who? champions that were useful WHEN we ranked them. We do not read the future and we did not get enough advance warning to prepare. I for one, ad just ranked my Archangel to R4 spending a ton of everything which is now totally useless and I do not have resources to rank up Medusa.
- Provide dummy duel targets for practice. The lucky ones that have sentinels as main champion DO NOT have the same thing. Not even close. Basically the only practice we can make is by crushing on them DURING AQ, which means without any chance to retry without spending our hard earned resources.
Good luck and hold tight, the storm will be over and everyone will be OK.
MCoC is the most successful mobile game ever, profiting over $25 million a month. They are slated to hit $1 billion a year within the next 5 years.
A company that large can certainly be smart enough to figure out how stupid these AQ changes are?
Certainly you could have more moderators, and PR people to at least make us feel like you care.
Certainly you can afford to sweeten the pot with some better rewards.
Business is about profit, yes, but here's this wild concept. You can listen to your customers, satisfy the bulk, and still make a profit.
I refuse to spend a single cent now that I clearly see how greedy you are. If it causes me to uninstall the game, so be it.
Please forgive me for my yesterday’s message... I was literally angry with those changes, angry with Kabam and I wrote a bad message in reply to yours
That was no my willing to hurt you...
Sorry again...
How has no one read this man's reply? They STILL think it's not harder and instead just different.
How is the Skill Sent somehow able to shrug of Armor Shatter and all other debuffs not harder than the Skill Sym who shrugged them off only after being hit?
How is the Mystic Sent having MD 5 not harder than a simple power gain Sym?
How the bloodclat is the Science Sent able to LOWER/TURN OFF DEXTERITY not harder than the science Sym which all he used to do was Poison you if he hit you? Also on the topic of the Science Sent, no one seems to really give this one enough shine and focus more on the Mystic and Skill one but this fool can strike you with a special even if you perfectly evade to do having Void's ability to lower Dex. Not harder right Kabam? What's the solution? Play slower, wait for it to go then go back in? In a 3 min fight I'm to wait 15 seconds?
I really love this game. This game is the first and ONLY Mobile game that I've ever really played and turned my attitude on Mobile games but Kabam, you're slowly making me regret that. I've been playing since late 2016 and seriously. How can you sit there are still say things aren't harder?
1) Greatly reduce or remove sentinel difficulty/immunities.
2) Provide rank down tickets that cover all costs, since despite what you told us before about needing certain champs for things well we do now.
3) Refund all the potions that people have had to waste because of your error and misjudgement.
1) simply rollback to the previous update to this one.
2) starting working on the many, many things that were already broken before changing anything else.
That’s the only realistic option I see for me personally to keep playing this game. This isn’t coming from a long time player as I had just started prior to 12.0 & didn’t get to feel the effects from it. I may not be the best player ever but I’m not some scrub either that just enjoys complaining to just justify my lack of skills. In just over a year of playing I’ve done 100% of everything except LOL (only did the easy path so far) & routinely put up over 3M in aq with guess what?... the champs I worked hard to rank & actually enjoy playing with only for you to make them paperweights. If your goal was to alienate/tick off the community then I commend you for a job well done. If that wasn’t your goal then please show it through actions ASAP before more damage is done.
The problem is that even if the sentinels are toned down and compensation is given for this week's cluster**** it will not keep a lot of people from retiring. Sentinels are BORING and TEDIOUS to fight. I play games to have fun. If a game is not fun I QUIT playing it. I honestly can't see myself continue playing MCoC if sentineloids stay in AQ in any form. They just plain suck.
Maybe if a MLMLM combo was introduced the sentineloids would be bearable. Maybe if block/parry/evade/errant control issues were fixed the sentineloids would be bearable. The game is still broken and sentineloids have no place in this game until the basic mechanics have been repaired.
Kabam, if you care at all about the customer base please address these issues first. Dump the sentineloids until you have a stable product.
Please listen to the community and address this issue.
1) aq changes were not tested at all by kabam and it looks like we are the beta testers for you guys
2) the amount of bugs that havent been fixed for months IS TOO DAMN HIGH
3) shortage of gold and t1a's and t2a's is REAL and there is plenty of proof in these forums
4) aw seasons was just unfair for small allys and a month break with the same format is really silly
5) lack of transparency and communication from mods and kabam about when bugs will be fixed makes me wonder why we have forums here
6) old champs feel outdated and useless now and only rulk and luke cage got a buff when really spider gwen and ant man shouldve been the first
7) 5x5 feels impossible with day 5 and 5k plus prestiges for aq
8) aw when seasons starts will be very stressful with cheating and piloting still going on without any punishment from kabam
NOW dont get me wrong at all. i LOVE this game and its why Im posting this in HOPES that kabam will realize their mistakes. this is the only mobile game ive actually spent real money on and i honestly regret that now cause i feel i got ripped off.
we all pay for this game in some way. whether actually buying units or deals or paying for the wifi to play the game or the phone bills to use data to play this game; all in all players from new to end-game have put in so much time and effort and I feel that this game has taken a turn for the worst.
I still play this game but it really has taken the fun out of it now.
aq feels like an uphill battle against such rigged and over powered sentinels with no increase in rewards and that just makes me wonder how does kabam think this will work out any longer?
we are on page 34 here of clear complaints about the change of aq and the state of players, from new to end-game, mindset so clearly we are NOT happy.
there is a post on this forum with like 40 plus pages about dexing, blocking, dash backs, parrying not working on top of lag and controls not working and still no sign of a fix soon.
I really want to game to be fair again and work properly because these updates are NOT working and the devs and testers and coders NEED to do better.
all we ask if honesty.
if you guys dont know how to fix this then tell us. or at least tell us that a fix is COMING and will fix this once and for all.
customers are the life of a company.
unhappy, frustrated customers arent good for business.
just saying.
please dont flag this or warn me as I have dont nothing but been constructive with my post.
-thank you
