The title says it all. I have been playing this game for only 2 months. I wanted to advance my roster so I could be a heavy hitter and join a higher alliance, and have the characters that were sought after in this game. I heard that I could get good four stars by buying the featured crystals. I bought 6300 units worth of the 150 unit featured crystals, and I got were 2 stars and three stars. I wasted 300 dollars on the game and got nothing. Are you happy now Kabam? One way you could improve the game is by selling crystals that actually have good four star champs in them so those of us who just started the game could progress faster instead of trying to always catch up to 100K players who have been playing for 2 years.

I mean I got my Gwenpool that way but I was forced so yea lol
I'm curious. How were you forced?
I quit playing Game of War about 6 months ago. In order to "keep up" simply to survive against other players, you would have to spend somewhere around $100 every two weeks. I had guys in my alliance who would drop hundreds of dollars a week on that game. One spent $10k in a weekend for one of the elite events...and still lost.
I've probably spent about $50 through various small offers on MCOC and don't regret any of it.
But as others have posted above and throughout the forums, spending units on hero crystals is probably the biggest waste of units in the game. Do I still do it? At least one or two with each featured one. Still don't have a featured champ, although I did get my duped 3* Dormammu and 4* Hyperion from them (they weren't the featured).
I wanna know what clowns are saying such ridiculous things like "could get good four stars by buying the featured crystals." If you happen to see them punch them in the face for giving such awful information.
But then again, rip my friend, that luck is tough, i'm 0/10 on featured crystals.
2 year (this week) player, minimal $ maybe $500 over 2 years and have a 455k account.
PI, not prestige.
1. I've been playing for just under two years. I'm a bit over 400k. 100k in two years would be a very casual pace.
2. Whoever told you to buy featured crystals because they were a good way to get strong champions really doesn't like you. Stop hanging out with them.
3. If a new player could "catch up" to players playing for two years by dropping $300 on the game, no one would be playing this game for two years.
Like all MMOs, MCOC is a treadmill of progress. But part of the meta game is learning what the best way to advance actually is. This game is not a game where you get the best champions and then park yourself in the end game doing raids twice a month. It is about actually playing the game and acquiring things over time. You're not supposed to be able to buy your way past that. You can spend your way past certain things, and you can partially accelerate your progress through strategic spending, but if you want to literally spend your way to the top, I doubt you could scratch the surface of that for less than ten grand of purchases.
PS: where do you live that 6300 units costs $300. I know there are currency conversions that can make things more expensive, but 6300 units should have cost about $200 US.
I'd kill for a 75k prestige hahaha!
Not a problem, my friend
No flowers, no decent meal, not even a kiss goodbye.
I learned my lesson buying awakening gems just prior to the Great Nerf.
And $139.99 in Canada. Taxes on the purchase, and many countries break the $300 mark for 2 Odin's Vault.
The stupid cheap daily offers are $7.50 each.
i regret. no way i'll get 4* from featured crystal.
Buy u throught a bigger better roaster can be an v v expensive time for u. I bet somewhere over 1000$ pr month .
I suggest since u only have played for about 2 month.
1. Join an ally - thats the main thing to do, to get shards faster.
2. Work through story event
3. grind in areana with ur currently roaster - gives u units and gold
4. Do any smaller event.
5. learn the game.
I have played the game almost 2 years.. and never used any $$$$. also mean i miss alot of the god tier champ.
Hyperion, Hood, Doc Voodoo, Mordo, Gwenpool... but hey.. they are all added to the basic so i hope soon or later i will get them,,
Its Kabam.. and well i bet all have been kabammed.. Save like 3000 units and try throught a feature.. get all 2 stars.
Save for 45k 5 star shards for a feature get collosus, or some crappy 5 star.. that either just stay as rank 1 for ever..
Part of the game..
Ouch... accidentally purchasing an Odin's Vault must suck. Sorry to hear
Yep one of those super drunk weekend birthday parties.. Made a note to myself.. whenever i go to such parties log out of the game LOL..
By my best friend. He pushed to do two and on the second I got her. I was utterly speechless.
