**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.

Random Grey Boosts are in Store [Merged Threads]

I can't stress enough how this one sentence tells everyone all they need to know. Advanced Power Boost has been missing for 39 days, almost all the others went on a 21 day hideout. We speak up that there may be a problem and are told its RNG. Magically that RNG happens to just produce the first Grey boost in over 14 days minutes after maintenance.
As a company, I don't blame them for offering things to make money. That's what they are supposed to do. But the transparency here and the consistency in which RNG is so poorly distributed just leads to further separation between community and company. When was the last time the Grand Master felt his Contest hasn't lived up to his standards. Those were the days were we felt as a whole the game/Kabam was succeeding.
And before you start in on free stuff yada yada jazz that many of you like to spew. This is about the Kabam owning their mistakes, holding themselves accountable. We would have had a better reaction had they just came out and said "we won't be offering these anymore" but they will be available for purchase. Yes it would suck, but it would be honest. Or yeah we found a mistake in the code that actually caused the boost not to be showing. Once again honesty goes a long. And while we are being honest, I'm sure as Mike stated none of our thoughts will even be considered.
Also the community: please give us AW gears, we cannot live without them!
Quick math...
the odds for war boosts not to appear for 35 days (assuming equal chances for all boosts) is 1 in 71,426,250
(based on 3 unique boosts available each day, 3 war boosts out of 20 potential boosts)
You have to admit it, Miike. We are a bit unlucky.
There is a drop rate. It's 100% chance you pull a boost. Now, the chances of each boost you can pull isn't described, but that's common in their drop rate descriptions.
Betting they'll say each of those boosts has an equal chance of being pulled, so you'll have a 50% chance of pulling one of the good war boosts, and a 16.6% chance of pulling the specific one you want.
This line of reasoning ignores the variable of introducing something during the same 24 hour timeframe/day for 3+ months and then wondering why the community is irritated when that something came with no announcement of being on a random schedule and disappears for over a month
This has nothing to do with the dishonesty that everyone is upset about.
We’re not stupid (mostly), but y’all are straight up calling us stupid. Yeah, what a coincidence this all is.
Trade ya straight up
Also back in November someone attempted to track their regularity. Returned this before giving up.
Advanced power and invulnerability boosts were available the same day of the week for nearly all of AW Seasons 2-3. Their availability was similar during seasons 1 and 4.
Furthermore this is from when they were introduced.
“New Boosts in the Loyalty Store
In addition to all of the changes we’re making to Alliance Wars, we’re also introducing some new Alliance Wars Boosts in the Loyalty Store! These 3 Boosts are only active for 3 Minutes, and are only able to be used in Alliance Wars. They are also not a permanent addition to the Loyalty store, and will only be available at random.”
We've already said as much as we can on the subject, and have been completely truthful here. I am raising this entire thread to the team, as well as the other comments you guys have made outside this thread.
