Agreed, dropping a few ranks instead of a few tiers. Doesn't make sense.
For players who have fully explored Act 5 and LOL, AW Season rank rewards are by far the best option for end-game rank up resources. Running AQ 6X5 and using all your glory on T2AC shards pales in comparison to the T2AC rewards given to master tier players. Don't even need to mention T5BC shards to show cheaters are still winning.
Players can still use screenshots or logs as the basis for reporting alliances for collusion or cheating. But Kabam is stating they cannot use those as the ultimate proof of collusion or cheating: they will investigate using their own data of the wars to draw a conclusion.
In other words, if you think you have a smoking gun of collusion with line chat logs and send those to Kabam, they will look at the actual war logs for evidence of that collusion. If they find such, they will act. If they don't, or they don't find enough evidence to be certain beyond their required confidence threshold, they won't act on only the basis of reported information.
I don't see what the big deal is. None of these complaints is going to affect you in a negative way, unless you are in an alliance colluding in the top brackets.
There used to be a stat for defender rating. Assuming this still exists somewhere in the database, i gott think this nonsense would stand out like a sore thumb.
Not true at all. I used to be in a p1 alliance that is currently in masters right now. They don’t pilot or do 2*. Im in a gold 1 alliance for s2 since I couldn’t compete with these guys and spend time with my family. So instead of cheating I stepped down
Maybe the earned it....
Maybe they didnt...
Maybe they got there by cheating...
Maybe they can only retain it by cheating....
Maybe there are alliances that cant get to challenge them cus they cheat...
Maybe if they stop cheating and played legit they would lose...
Maybe they would stay where they are....
All i see is maybe this maybe that... it is all guess work...
But the fact remains....
They are cheating...
It is wrong...
It ruins the experience for some if not all other players...
Sounds like nonsense to me. What if the only placed r3 4*. Would they still be cheating even though hey could clear those champs easily too?
So in other words if an allience was to continue doing this then nobody will be able to compete with them since legit wars faught by honest people has the points kind of spread out and not one sided
Yes, they would still be cheating. They would still be getting higher scores than they could otherwise get through collusion. Should be obvious.
No one is getting punished for placing 2* defenders or any other kind of defenders. They are being punished for colluding with other alliances to rig the results of a war and maximize points without having to compete for them. The fact that they placed 2* defenders just makes that really easy to prove.
You could place all 4/55 defenders but if you collude with your opponent to rig the results of the war you'll still be penalized for it.
If this is true I would expect both alliances to be disqualified and have a drop in aw bracket : eg plat to gold
I'm honestly still trying to wrap my head around the possibility that there exist real human beings who thought padding a war with a few deaths would make it look less suspicious, but loading a map full of 2* champions in a top tier bracket would look perfectly fine.
Flag all the ones that stand out and hen manualy review them.
You may trust yourself and those who are close to you but there are a total of 60 people involved in 1 alliance war and the entire 60 are not likely to be of the same mind set or postion at a later point in time. You may find that the shady deal made a month ago has now come back to bite you in the ass as a player party to that deal is now in a new alliance and directly competing with yours and has the precursory evidence to bring down your season score and jump ahead of you without even having to face you in war.
Seriously, trusting 59 other cheaters to not let the cat out of the bag has to be one epic lapse of
Judgment.
And you are not.
What you are being told is to not matchfix. Do not discuss and reach agreement with your opponent on how to play the match to ensure a victory for a particular side
Clearly not just spending you dunce. You're literally commenting on a thread about how they're manipulating AW to stay up top but your solution is spend more? Please get a clue.
Your thought process is completely wrong and backwards.
These teams are getting 0 deaths which means they are getting point s they never would have by skill.
These teams are not using boosts or potions or anything to get these point which means they can use them on their next real war when they may not have had them. This will allow them to get point that they never would have as well.
Reporting this behavior isn't "reaching up from the bottom to get to the top by pointing fingers." This is people who are the worst part about this game getting what's due.
Well done Kabam, you've proved that money talks. Fairplay my $$%%$$
It better not be...KABAM if this cheating is proven they should get NOTHING. It's time to take a zero tolerance policy to cheating. Otherwise you can start refunding the legit players who got gipped by playing fairly against cheating alliance scores.
Because winning and losing isn't the only important factor in alliance war seasons. Point totals are. Whether you score 140k in a loss or 120k in a loss is significant. Regardless of whether you win or lose, colluding with your opponents to hand you free points if they hand you free points is increasing your scores relative to everyone else, which ultimately does hurt other alliances.
You can argue that those alliances would have gotten the same score either way, just more expensively, but that argument is self-serving, impossible to prove, and almost besides the point. The real problem is this damages the integrity of the competition, and that alone justifies penalizing the behavior.
Completely agree.. and also they are ensuring they stay at the top by rigging the aw to get maximum points to keep the division from rest as much as possible to keep their spots,
like self oppointed gate keepers making sure no other alliances have a fair opportunity to possibly catch up leaving nothing to chance to keep that devision by colluding with each other, like a fraternity boys club. I think Their biggest fear is other alliances playing legitimately getting more points vs them which would leave a window of opportunity of other alliances slowly catching up to them- guess they didn’t want to leave anything to chance. (or fair play)
