The precedent has been set. If you pay to abuse an exploit, you get no punishment and you get to keep your exploited rewards.
Either revert those who used the exploit and not give them back iso/gold or add 3-4 gem not restricted to the rewards in addition so everyone gets same rewards.
Then there's no backlash about different rewards for the same content.
It would really help us understand whether it is worth making noise over.
Wait till people realize that there are players in top-rated alliances that used their glitched 2015 rank up gem to r4 a brand new champ instead and then used their r4 to r5 gem to r5 that same brand new champ.
Like they will release the ppls who cheated in an alliance to their own leader? Good luck with that... it shouldn't matter if it is 1 ppl or 100 ppls this is not a time attack quest.
Was it reasonable to not realize the gems were only for 2015 characters? Definitely yes.
Can this be exploited indefinitely to a point the player would obviously know it was wrong? No.
This is clearly a case of the community making a mountain out of a molehill.
As per usual.
They ranked down champs, denied ISO, Gold, and even Catalyst refunds, REMOVED CHAMPIONS from rosters SOME OF WHICH HAD A GEM USED ON THEM(!), denied the return of the gems that were used, Signature Stones, they removed things down to the signature level. If you had 14999 shards and used the exploited shards for the rest then you LOST an entire featured crystal!
Exploit=Exploit=Exploit
20 alliances get master tier rank rewards every AW season. If gems were used to rank up non-2015 champs for AW defense that could mean the exploit gives an alliance better AW Season rank rewards because they cheated.
Kabam you talk about being more transparent. Talk about being a game for the players. But this is complete **** and a direct slap in the face to us all trying to better our rosters and alliances. I can’t believe that this is the direction that you’re wanting to take the game for 2019. We’ve all been loyal players and spenders but this is nearly my boiling point. Fix the **** Kabam or risk losing long long time players.
Typical Kabam.
It’s not even about money talks. There are plenty of massive whales that didn’t do this.
Idk what this even is. This makes no sense at all considering what they’ve done in the past about exploits that weren’t nearly as significant as this one.
AW is already a garbage dump due to all the scheming, tanking, ducking, and cheating. Now this.
If anything, it just goes to show how inconsistent Kabam has been in dealing with people who knowingly exploit bugs and gain an unfair advantage in the game. Kabam can get heavy-handed by reversing gains and rewards, and even banning accounts. Why act differently now?
I have completely explored just the first chapter. I got the correct gem and used it on a 2015 champ. It feels like I did all that effort for nothing, knowing that others got a much better deal. I'm not inclined to go any further in these quests until the issue is properly and fairly resolved.
This is also such a pity as with new original Champ like Aegon and the variant content, things were starting to look positive . Then this BS which is entirely self-made.
This. Exactly this. Or the farmable chest during the Bautista event.........
I’m sorry but I think you guys have buggered up big time on this and the community will not let you forget it.
The game needs to be kept fair - either everyone can use the gems on any champ and you accept that YOU stuffed up and allow it as a gift to the community or you roll back anyone who used gems on a champ not 2015.
I assume Based on your current response that it’s going to be a nightmare for you to work that out so that really only leaves you with one option.
Time to admit you goofed and allow a level playing field. Same for everyone either unrestricted rank ups or rolled back and used on 2015 champs for those that abused the glitch.
You decided but what you have decided now is going to cause you grief for a long time to come. You need to get onto this and resolve it for the communities sake.
