If this is just a summoner appreciation, it's fine and appreciated. 100%. Thank you.
If this is supposed to be a compensation package for the months of extreme issues, that would be very bad imo. It doesn't do enough to compensate for 19/overheating/frequent outages/bugs.
Agreed if this is just appreciation then by all means awesome! Based on what Mike said, however, I suspect this is part of the "compensation"
Yes, the Summoner Appreciation week and the included Summoner Appreciation Gift are what we've been referring to in discussions about compensation.
Why only 1000 5* shards? That's very disappointing for everything that happened
They’re boosting gold by 20%. No need for gold realms too
Boosting gold by 20% is nowhere near equivalent to gold realms. At most it is only an additional 100 gold per fight in 3.2 of the monthly event quest. Anywhere else it is even less than 100 gold per fight because most quests don't drop 500 gold per fight.
Correct me if I’m wrong... but the 20% boost to gold means that we get more gold from opening gold crystals and arena crystals right? So if you do arena that could earn a good stack of gold
Key words, "If you do arena". Most people don't have time to grind the hours and hours of arena that this 20% gold boost would require to be worth our while.
So this weak summoner appreciation is the compensation? That better not be the case...
Sorry to say, a month of nightmare gaming and missing arenas is only worth 1000 shards. Forget that the level 6 guy gets the same thing. Just be happy you have been giving a chance to earn your compensation by login in daily to a game that will most likely be in emergency maintenance and cooking pop corn while you try to run the halls of healing even though your phone shuts down. So angry at this slap in the face.
I feel appreciated. Not sure why everyone complains about free stuff. Just accept it and move on. Complaining isn’t going to solve anything. Let’s be honest for a second, had Kabam offered ZERO compensation or free things in the form of a summoner appreciation week, everyone would still play the game. They didn’t HAVE to give us anything but decided to anyways. We should feel grateful and just thank them for acknowledging us.

Fair enough I see where you’re coming from but they’ve tried a lot of things to increase gold. New gold crystals for uncollected, putting all gold in the first 3 milestones of arena etc. They might feel that this is enough... I don’t necessarily agree with them (I’m running low on gold too) but I realise arena is where most of the gold comes from and if people can’t do it then I guess their gold gain will be slower than those who can

"We should feel grateful" We are their customers, a lot including myself spent lots of money on this game. When they screw up they should fix it and make most happy, not give us a BS slap to the face compensation.
So after all the overheating issues, game performance and constant bugs, glitches and general playability problems the summoner appreciation event will be a week long and not a month?
Problems have gone up drastically and we're "appreciated" 75% less. What a joke of an announcement.
Hooray... we get to listen to people complain about fee stuff for the next 2 weeks...
If this is all the compensation we get, it isn’t free stuff. It’s an apology for kabam’s game not working well. And if that apology is as sub-par as what they’ve announced, then I think it’s alright to complain.
Thought appreciation was thanks summoners for dealing with our small glitches and still spending money and making us rich vs sorry guys you were unable to play for 2 weeks but hey have a free energy refill and a 2* champ that should cover it
so this is our compensation???!! we have to do in game content to get some rewards, but why do you guys say it like you are just adding something for US and then turn around and say oh this is compensation for all the mistakes. you know we're anticipating compensation for an entire month of hot phones, and more extreme server issues, and that's not in your announcement.
furthermore, we've gotten Summoner Appreciation in the past, but correct me if I'm wrong in that it was an entire Month of rewards and such. Anyway, I am excited for this event, it will really help out a lot of people, but I just wish you'd draw a definitive line and communicate that with us.
This all comes down to being a WHY->How->What teacher. the most successful companies in the world do this so get with the times.
This is how they plan to compensate all the people affected, AND STILL AFFECTED by the overheating issue? By giving EVERYBODY poor rewards. It's as if they are actually trying to get people to stop playing this game. I love how they try to compare this to the 12.0 update, as if that was much worse. Newsflash, at least with the 12.0 update my device wasn't running the risk of breaking due to your coding! Maybe the problem is that you've been too busy trying to figure out the worst compensation possible for this problem, instead of, you know, FIXING THE PROBLEM!

It's still free because I lost nothing from the game outages besides being inconvenienced.
Free is free. It's not like you paid for those rewards and didn't receive them.

Kabam could tell us all to go pound sand.
Well then it’s free for you. I personally lost out time to grind arena, quests, Aq and Aw from them. I know that it’s “free” in the sense that I didn’t pay for anything, but it’s not “free stuff” as used as a general term on the forum, it is compensation and if it’s not felt to be enough then the community has a right to complain.
this ain’t compensation, nor appreciation, this is just really poor customer service! 1000 5* shards, “some units”, potions and revives, energy along with tiny packages and halls of healing is nothing! Compensation is the addition of gold realm, at least 4K-5K more 5* shards, several 4* crystals, sig stones, t4 catalysts, several t1 and t2 alpha catalysts, and gold !

I know... time to sit back and enjoy the ride... Since we have the choice, can we choose not to pick one of the packages?
Please tell me the bare minimum is like 300 or so 🙈
I hope you do a little back peddling to clarify that this is only a fraction of the compensation for the 19.0 fiasco...

And a free AA
