Looking back on the 2020 MCOC schedule

Remember back in 2016 they released that picture with thumbnails of plans until 2020? https://i.redd.it/90sg90sx591y.jpg

Well we're well into 2017 now and we now know that PvC does indeed mean Punisher vs Carnage. Seems like they are releasing this earlier than intended or maybe Spiderman event was pushed off.

Seems like the plans they released was very toned down. No mention of the huge 12.0 nerf-athon. But they also didn't mention Angela/King Groot/Iceman/Archangel; so maybe they don't really know exactly what they're going to do until a few weeks prior.

They wanted to lineup the spider man event with his movie release. This suggests Marvel studios is being manipulated by time travelers who wanted the PvC event to come first. These time travelers had Home Coming's release date pushed back in order to bump up PvC. Kabam needs to patent a temporal shield to prevent this from happening again.

If they mapped out every event there would've been at least ~12 listed on the time line...

Well, we're not going to give away EVERYTHING! There are still lots of things planned that were not on that presentation. Keep in mind, that's mostly related to story events, and doesn't factor in things like game events, or new seasons of modes etc.

Oh hey Miike is back on the forums! What did you say in the meetings that they made you return to dealing with us non-persons?

Anyways, welcome back to my favorite Kabam employee.

Mike never left the forums. Click on his profile, then click on the "Comments" button on the right. He's been commenting regularly.

Na they created this new forum to delete all evidence of previous conversations and have less interaction with the waste and riffraff. They've already deleted the previous forums entirely and they have been much much less present on the new forums.

Miike is clearly transitioning into other work like Adora did last year.

I would direct you to the old forums to show you that they were more responsive; however they have deleted it. So feel free to defend them without fear of being proven wrong.

Just think back to Friday when the game was down in the morning and they couldn't be bothered to descend from their high perch to speak to the lowly waste.

I'll be honest, there lots of bad blood on my end and I don't give them the benefit of the doubt on anything anymore. But I still think the change in responsiveness should be clear to all.

The mods do have lifes so no there not going to lurk all day and all night waiting for something goes bad they said it themselves the purpose of here is not for one on one disscusions with he game team also u people are never satisfied u claim they are not active yet look at the bug forum they have plenty of responses in the name u just don't like there answers funny I remember in the old ones people argued against the fact that they were active

OK, so the old forum was NOT deleted. You can still find it, with all the posts intact. It simply migrated to wonderhill (Aftershock forum)

Thanks so much GbSarkar. I really appreciate that.

Well, this is totally off topic to your own post, but as we have said many many times before, the forums are not only a place for us to interact with you guys, but a place for you guys to interact and talk to each other. We're not going to be able to get to every thread and every topic, as much as we wish we could, but that's only because cloning hasn't been perfected yet!

Also, I am sorry that I wasn't able to address the server issues on Friday morning, but I was stuck in bed all weekend and wasn't able to even get to my computer. Which was a huge shame because it was absolutely beautiful out here the last few days.

Time_to_clobber

Sorry you weren't feeling well; I hope you are feeling better. If the forums are not the right place to interact with you, then where is the correct place for customers to interact with you? Isn't that pretty much my point: interacting with customers is not something anyone at Kabam looks forward to.

That's kind of a twist of what I said. I didn't say that this isn't the correct place, but that this is not the only objective of the forums. This is not the case for ANY game's forums. We try and reply to every thread and subject that we can, but when there is nothing new to add to a subject, there is nothing we can post, and we don't continuously repeat the same points over and over when they have already been answered.

You're right Miike, I actually did twist that.

Point is though that in the past, Kabam would do bad stuff and then send you to spin it to us. Now it seems like they don't even bother to spin it. They just let it ride openly and mods don't even bother commenting because it's so transparent.

I guess I'm just really hostile towards Kabam/Netmarble. Truly believe your employer to be a very shady company without any business responsibility. A company that hides as much as possible from its customers and cares far more about the bottom line than the customer experience. It's definitely the only game company I've ever hated like this (and second only to American Airlines on my all time ****-list).

I remember a youtube video about PHC or something, where the crystal spins, no 2☆ in the animation and when the crystal stops, out pops a 2☆, shady.

It's been mentioned many times that the animation is not a reflection of the outcome. The outcome is generated when you Spin, or click Open. It's just a window into some of the possibilities.

Ya I actually agree with GW on this point: I don't think the crystals are fixed. HOWEVER, the fact that they are so non-transparent about the drop rates always causes me to reach for the tin foil hat. I'm always one step away from reaching for it. Basketball card companies release odds of finding specific cards. Casinos release odds of winning prizes. Kabam should fall in line.

The fact that Miike is going to come and say "we follow the industry wide standards and we are no different" isn't satisfactory to me. The industry has already changed due to the Chinese laws (who would have thought that China would lead the world in consumer protection??). Blizzard released all drop rates, yet Kabam is still dragging things until the last possible moment.

Then there is the ultra shady random values they have used to replace the previously clear percentages. WTF does 258 armor mean? It means nothing to me. It's just Kabam's way of saying screw you to players and keeping more secrets from us.

We also have the way they ninja-nerfed every single champ in 12.0 (after claiming it will only be strange, witch, thor, and BW) and then ninja-compensated 200k pi right after. Just another huge screw you to long time players like myself.

Then we have the YEAR long bugs (all advantageous to Kabam's pocket): spidey evade bug (over 1 year and they "can't find a fix"), game recovery bug, dexterity bug on double evades, etc etc etc. I don't accuse them of creating these bugs, but I certainly believe that they take their sweet time on bugs that are helping them out. Remember when the PI bug came out? Remember how they practically shut down the whole game to prevent us from beating LOL too easily? Remember how they added a bunch of stuff to LOL all of a sudden just to make it harder? Those kind of reactionary steps are NEVER taken to HELP players. NEVER.

They screw up so often now that they don't send out the mods to even explain. The collector don't send out the "I'm sorry gifts" anymore, because he'd have to send out a new one every single day.

They claim to be earnestly looking into stuff. But I can't see how that could possibly be true. Beneficial bugs are immediately fixed. Detrimental bugs linger. OP champs are nerfed big time. Weak champs stay weak. They don't see by now that karnak, spidergwen, and kamala suck? How could that be?

Block proficiency nerfed. Willpower nerfed. Inventories get capped. Potions drop less. The promised social media give aways have been on hold for a year now. Bases has become so delayed that even Miike jokes about it. The list goes on. These guys are not player friendly. They are thinking only of the stock price. Then they send out Miike to tell me why it's all in my best interest.

Ralph Nader needs to get busy looking into this corrupt company. I hope Kabam gets bought by a real company and they replace everyone besides the art department and forum mods.

Bro at this point im begging you
STOP

Apollo107

Bro this is so old why is this at all relevant @Kabam Miike please close this

Timros

This isnt relevant actually. But its neat to look back once and while and see where the game as gone. If it's a topic or something of no interest to you, feel free to disregard. There may be others who wouldn't mind talking about it. That's not for you to decide. If the few "revived posts" bother a handful of you, and it's making it much more difficult for you to navigate, causing confusion and that much anxiety... I dont think the old posts are the real issues here.......🤪

You can look at it yourself privately and not bump these back up
