Except at this point it's a conflagration, not a kitchen fire. The problems have spread to all parts of the game like AQ brackets, overheating/crashing, and your standard connection issues. The best course of action for Kabam to go through would be scrap this compensation and give a bulk one like 12.0 because it's hit that level of damage to the community. Most people here are afraid to even boot up the game for fear of damaging their devices, so the pittance they were planning on giving just isn't going to cut it. I'm not a huge advocate for compensation, it's more of a pleasant bonus for me, but in this instance Kabam is going to have to work extra hard to regain their player bases' confidence.
Actually, it does. In terms of the outage, it makes up for what people missed. Unless of course, you have a personal expectation of "above and beyond", in which case you probably won't be pleased.
There's no reason to hold off and lump it in with other problems just because people wanted more. You need to deal with issues individually and within the scope.
Actually it doesn’t. Not in my opinion. Which is quite a large problem you seem to have, stating everything you believe as fact.
How does simply re-running the arena make up for it? It completely ignores previous effort without any address of it.
Hypothetical situation. A player who really, really wanted Goldpool/Modok/Antman is grinding arena. They don’t have the deepest roster for it and are fairly unprepared. But they bought an Odin, Black panther treasure, Stark briefcase, or whatever and they grinded. They recharged their champs and made it all the way to X Million points. But before they could do any more, the game went down for emergency maintenance. Distraught at the money on the line, they prayed for the game to come back up while they could grind before they had to sleep/work/whatever. This was their designated time to grind. 8 hours later and it’s still down.
At the end of the arena they cross their fingers but unfortunately all their money has gone to waste, they came 151st/251st/ 11%-25% or whatever. They missed out. All that time, money and effort gone to waste.
They check the forums and apparently compensation is coming out. They think maybe something good will come for it, the units maybe refunded, or the top rewards being handed out to people. After all the buildup of kabam saying compensation will come out soon, it’ll come out soon, it’ll come out soon; they come out and say that the arena will be rerun.
Brilliant. So the “compensation” for the player is that they have the opportunity to put in all the effort again. All those units, money and time spent were literally for nothing.
Perhaps this was an exaggeration , then again, perhaps not. Regardless, it is almost a certainty that someone spent money to refresh champs for Goldpool (there were scores of over 150 million) and people clearly spent time that has gone to waste.
Compensation does NOT cover everything. And that is not my opinion, because it is a fact that the arena does not compensate for money, time or effort spent in arena. It just gives an opportunity to put in the same money, time or effort in again.
So how is a few energy refills, some gold, and 1/6 of 5* going to compensate for the later issues? Or should we wait nearly another two weeks for that compensation? It doesn't take a week and a half to come up with this kind of package. Nor does it take that long to adjust for the current problems. Right now, combining the issues into one concise package would do the community good. I work in the service industry and you don't just give the customer the bare minimum, not if you intend on keeping them around anyway. This isn't like trying to give somebody a new car and working overtime for the materials. You simply input the command and press a button. Drawing this out, skimping on the compensation (something the community seems to feel strongly about), and keeping communication channels practically silent is going to do more damage than the outage ever did. Once trust is lost, it's twice as hard to regain it and Kabam has been down this road one too many times.
I don't care if people Flag me. Abusing it is actually against the rules, as it's not my Account being affected.
I'm not stopping anyone from commenting. Conversely, I'm not going to stop participating because people don't agree with me.
I'm not claiming to be an Employee. It's probably best to know what that is before accusing someone of it.
Bottom line is, you're right. It's not about me. So please don't make it about me with comments like this. I ain't stopping anyone from participating.
I hate that I can't press both agree and lol.
@GroundedWisdom I find it funny that you chose to reply to a post that was clearly baiting you for a response, but ignore the valid points I make. This is why people think you don’t back up your opinion, because you call it facts and then don’t explain why.
