This is more than generous. Especially for newer players. Back when I started I had to scratch n claw my way to a 5*. Newer players have it easier than I did.

    Yep. I give kabam a lot of hell. But this is just not a problem. It’s free. And it’s more than we’ve generally had. Where’s the problem?

    I take it you just read the bits you want and ignore the rest of the comments, it’s not about the “having free shards” it’s about the way they big it up for something that is not “ astonishing” we’ve had 5k before so that would make us think it’s at least that if not more but it’s typical Kabam bigging this up and letting us down.

    4K 5* shards to a new player is very astonishing. You’re just nit-picking now.

    Honestly this calendar is pretty solid. A t2a and almost half a 5 star is pretty solid. Maybe people just need to tempor their expectations for free handouts. Il

    Back in my day max 3 stars are more powerful than 4 stars because t1 alphas don't exist

    4k 5* shards? That's great for me. My second account is Roughly 2k shards away from its first 5*. I'll take an extra 2k for my next. No complaints for free stuff lol.

    No one is complaining about the amount just Kabam s usual false description
    I gues I missed that part, can you show me what it said?


    Never mind, I reread the ingame message. I guess people feel like they are entitled to a couple of featured 5* crystals now.

    Back when you started, you were probably able to clear content with 3*. For some content, now not only you need maxed 5* but sometimes even specific 5* champions. So any amount of shards is never enough if you are not lucky, this is why (I think) many are complaining.

    Newer players aren’t supposed to clear endgame content right of the bat, not back then, and also not now. That’s where maxed 5* are needed for, and (with the exception of the maze) it’s all permanent content. You can work, grow, learn, progress your way towards completing said permanent endgame content.
    “So any amount of shards is never enough if you are not lucky.” If you are right in thinking that then that’s basically saying that some people will always complain and will never be happy with the regards from the monthly calendar, which you get for just logging in once a day, not playing the game, no just opening the game once a day. Back when I started there was no monthly calendar, I logged in every day and got zero rewards for it.......

    I dont see why people are complaining. They could have given us none in the calendar. 4k 5* shards is a generous gift just for logging it once a day
  • A_Noob_Is1A_Noob_Is1 Member Posts: 762 ★★
    You literally get 4k shards from logging in. What's the complaint?
  • WalkinhighlightWalkinhighlight Member Posts: 134 ★
    Forums are a toxic place where you can hand someone 4k 5*shards for simply tapping on the app and still find some way to complain. They don't have to give us shards at all. 4k shards amounts to putting up 13m in arena for both rounds in the week. All i have to do is tap the mcoc app and collect over a few days? I'll take it.
  • LazerblamLazerblam Member Posts: 46
    Yeh I complain a lot but there is nothing to complain about here, free 5 star shards just for logging in is very welcome, plus there will be more to be earned in the next monthly event. It's better than no shards at all.

    I’ll do you one better, why is a string?

    All jokes aside, we shouldn’t complain that newer players are getting shards easier then we all did way back when. Nor should new players complain that it is not enough.

    Most new players do not have the depth of a roster to begin with... and even if they got 4K shards... So do players with 3 1/2+ years of grinding. I have well over 70 5*:

    So, they get 5* easier then I did... so do I now get 5*’s faster. It is a win-win for new and old players. While the new player gets their first, second or third... I am duping for 6* shards and getting my 77th, 78th or 79th 5*.

    Now, back in my day, we didn't have rocks. We had to go down to the creek and wash our clothes by beating them with our heads. We didn’t even have water to wash our clothes... We had to smash together our own hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
