Complaining is to express dissatisfaction or annoyance with something, you're literally doing the textbook definition of it. Just because you don't know what the word means doesn't mean you aren't doing it.
I know what the word means. I also know that it often has a pejorative connotation which goes beyond the dictionary definition. People don't tell others to quit complaining because they wish them to not provide negative feedback when something is having a deleterious effect. You wrote "which is why you'll complain rather than actually change your goals." Sounds like a pejorative to me. Could be wrong. Also there is a difference between merely expressing annoyance with something and providing reasons why something is detrimental. But this is going nowhere.
To the goal of season points I would make the boss a priority and make lanes 3 ,5 and 8 as back up lanes you sacrifice to get the minis leading to the boss down. You’ll have 4 players capable of filling in for lane failures to ensure you advance as far as possible. Have path 3 stop at the teleporter before node 27 so he can back up 1,2 and 4. Have path 5 wait to join or stall at the teleporter to back up 4/6. Finally have path 8 stall at the first teleporter so he can back up 6,7 or 9.
If you guys continue down this road of one week off, four weeks on, I will quit war altogether, and my battlegroup will be quitting as well. That means no more spending for war. I will also stop all in game spending, to make a point and be a stick in the mud, and I’ll try to get as many others as I can to follow suit. I realize this may ultimately be a drop in the bucket, but not trying is giving up.
You’ve had many officers and leaders come on here and say that what’s happening is bad for the players, alliance stability, and the game itself. Please don’t ignore us.
What if the war season was 10 Wars. That would be 20 days, and then allows 10 days as a break. Keep the rewards the same, so it would be a very intense 20 days (as they are right now) but if an alliance skipped an entire season they wouldn't be as far behind as right now. The same logic for why the season went from 2 months down to one month, use that to reduce it further.
Bottom line Do what's best for your alliance take a break or not to you may lose people that are warmongers and live for it but you got to do whats best for the members that are loyal to the team not the rewards. Yes short breaks sucks but do you have to stay P1 do it for fun. I can concentrate on the event quest part .........Short break sucks
PS... Thanks to Kabam for the free 5* in the 2* arena kudos to those who didn't sell their 2* and making the 1* & 2* useful FOR now do a 3* AW or AQ to make them useful....did I mention the Short break sucks
Should get extra messy in the next couple hours now that AQ is ending.
Thanks kabam
But then honestly, is that a bad thing? Good to cycle and keep new alliances rising to the top rather than having a dynasty of Alliances reaping all the best rewards forever more. In that case, if it's that hyper competitive to stay at the tippy top, then make it even harder! Definitely need a shake up.
It’s the opposite. A top 10 master alliance disbands and majority of the remaining players from within move into existing master alliances, making them stronger. The better players move into the top 3-5, also making them all stronger.
Good players from perennial top 5 alliances are burned out bc of this kabam nonsense, but still want to play and still want rewards without as much pressure, so they leave for other master alliances that are likely not to push for top 1-3. Those alliances are now stronger.
Sure one master spot is now open if someone disbands, but nothing will really change. Everyone just got better.
I’m focused more so on the fact that kabam seems clueless about player retention and morale. One cow will not keep all the lights on, no matter how impressive a cow it is.
No because it's all the same people. Gold 1 allies aren't gonna suddenly become Plat 1 allies because some top allies are breaking up. It just adds stress to people looking for new allys and those recruiting.
All those things are true, but what I was saying earlier is that no matter how bad the burn out problem is, it is unlikely to be affecting more than a moderate percentage of an even smaller percentage of alliances. It is incredibly unlikely that large percentages of Stone and Bronze bracket alliances are suffering war burn out, but they represent the bulk of all players. If literally *all* the master and platinum alliances from season six sat out season seven, that wouldn't show up as more than a blip in the login data. And it isn't that master and platinum would be empty, instead other alliances would automatically become the new master and platinum alliances. And that's just the extreme case for discussion purposes: that is not going to happen in reality.
And we can't focus on things like item use either, for a more important reason. We can't state that Kabam should use reduced item usage as evidence that there's something wrong with AW that needs fixing, because that would imply that a goal of Kabam's war design should be to maintain or increase item usage. But I don't think most players would agree that this should be a quantitative goal of the game design. In fact Kabam is often faulted for supposedly prioritizing it.
If Kabam continues to push us like this, we are going to end up playing War just for pleasure and totally ignore War Seasons
There needs to be more downtime given for War seasons.
People need time to catch up with other contents in the game, or even with other stuff in real life. A fun & healthy mobile game should not be played like a job/e-sport.
A 6-8 week Run followed by a 2 week break time seems ideal to most of the community I believe.
(Maybe somenody should start a poll)
Tell me again about how well AW is working. What a disgrace.
Apparently our opponents are burnt out too...thanks for breaking war Kabam!👍
Game is gonna keep being less popular.
@SiriusBreak the post was derailed as i madr a mention about how they didnt care and let the 0.1% get away with 2015 rank up gem.
And that people like me in master wars are the ones being effected by it
