**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

War Season Rewards & Vengeful Officers

Would like to know why there’s no fail safe to prevent ill tempered loose cannons from sabotaging alliances and preventing hard working members from receiving rewards.. Yesterday an officer on a rant fueled meltdown tried kicking an entire team, luckily only got through a few before the leader noticed and booted him. I have in and out of game screenshots to prove this and all members who were kicked rejoined same day, but are now out of season end rewards. Is there anything that can or will be done about this Kabam?

    They have dealt with this from other groups and their message to them was "they don't get involved in officer/alliance drama." so basically I would guess the answer is no, just like every other issue with that game mode - they don't see any issue with it.

    That’s a real shame, all the evidence is there that this man was off his meds. Guess the only thing to do is make everyone an officer lol. Lagacy actually put out a great video on the subject recently that I implore Kabam to watch. Fact that our money, items and time has been wasted on a sociopath is all kinds of wrong.

    Where would the checks and balances stop? There would be complaints of it being to hard to kick someone.

    Honestly, a situation like this is on the leader as much as the officer. People like that shouldn't be an officer. Theres two solutions. Have no one be an officer, or have everyone be an officer. I hate both of those. Lot of responsibility for the leader, or too many cooks in the kitchen. Gotta find a balance with the right people

    There is one more solution, instead of 5 wars how about 2 wars to be eligible for season reward
  • Primmer79Primmer79 Posts: 2,968 ★★★★
    Idea for solution: no one person can kick out a member. Require two people to agree to it first.

    I kinda hate this, only because of the burden it would put on officers when trying to slide someone into the alliance quickly between wars and AQ. If anything I could understand needing leader's approval maybe? or just allow the leader to kick? it would still require only one person.

    I think the 5 wars was good for the 2 month long season. With the change to one month long, it should be 3 wars. One full cycle.

    I was thinking about this too yesterday... Ideally the leader and one officer. Also to add to this, to kick a leader all officers need to agree (saw this on another discussion about an inactive leader)

    Some great thoughts here. Would love to see what kabam has to say about the subject. Kills the spirit and if I’m being honest, the desire to play after investing so much and losing the payoff at the end due to people with bad intentions.

    Yes he did. Lagacy appears to have matured, very nice to see MCOC YouTubers accurately speak on behalf of the community.
  • Another game I play locks the Alliance until after the Alliance event is done.

    Only the alliance leader should be allowed to boot imo

    At worst there should be something in place as to where you put in at least 5 wars with 1 team. Whether you’re still on one or not (in my case due to a terrible person) you should get some kind of rewards. Fact kabam obviously doesn’t care about people ruining their game/experience and can’t even be bothered to comment says a lot.

    Kabam doesn’t care

    Actually, it just puts them in the middle of a continuum of games that allow players some control over certain aspects of meta gaming. On the one hand, there are games where alliance leaders have almost no power to alter other players' game experience and are held responsible for any negative thing they do. On the other side of the fence, there's Eve Online's legendary laissez faire attitude towards interplayer politics where basically the only thing you aren't allowed to do is literally kill opposing factions in the real world. But you can bribe them in the real world with real cash to sabotage the gameplay of tens of thousands of other paying subscribers because they are in a position of power, and all's fair.
