I'm not touching the arena. Feeling my iPhone x (which cost more than1k) overheat is disturbing. Feels like I am destroying it by playing. I'm in and out in short spurts. There does not seem to be a fix coming soon so I'm out. The Goldpool arena re-run should be delayed until this is resolved.
Don't forget that this is only for IOS users so Android doesn't get anything.
So what android users suffered in disadvantage this entire time isn't relevant here?
Besides, is not happening with every iOs user. They can't do this "compensation" to those players only, like they never did it in the past with androids

Exactly! I hate the whole "We only compensate who we deem affected" I don't believe for a minute that the issue of overheating phones hasn't affected Android users also. It may not affect them to the same degree as it has to iPhone users, but any downtime spent trying to fix this issue or time spent away from fixing other issues is still time away from ALL players not just iPhone users. If they are going to compensate for this issue it needs to be for everyone. And before anyone says anything, I am an iPhone player.
Here’s a novel idea: actually pull a dozen or so players who have been affected by overheating and build a restitution package based on their suggestions. That would be something called “dialogue.”
The issue, of course, is how to make whole the players who experienced overheating versus those who didn’t. I would guess they won’t be able or willing to try to do that. So everyone likely gets a pony, whether we like it or not.
Otherwise, the content shouldn’t be hard. Refills (a lot—not 3X—a week of missing as much as 2-3 times a day full energy is a lot more than 3 refills), shards (how much have been lost/missed in a week?), pots and boosts should comprise the bulk of it. Any other stuff would be nice as an apology, but that doesn’t seem like Kabam’s style these days.
But everything should start with the players. I don’t have any confidence the game team plays the game at a level that would allow them to understand what a week’s worth of play represents.

There are problems that have been going on for longer than this past week. That should all be incorporated into whatever package they come up with for the more widespread problem. Previous versions have caused issues for iPhone and Android alike.

But first—fix the problem.
