C'mon dude.
However, it's in the numbers on their end, and numbers can't lie. They're undoubtedly aware of this community and the history regarding changes. If the data wasn't showing reason to consider him higher than the others, they wouldn't be opening up that can of worms. You can't argue conditions with the numbers, and evidently there is a "Too much." threshold in comparison to other high-end Champs.
again with the simple, respectively request ..
"Please show US the numbers."
We'd like to see that data please.
thanks!
I agree 100%
What specifically they are measuring when they refer to "outdamaging" is a separate question. There are a number of possibilities. Simply adding up all the damage a champion does in the game wouldn't be reasonable for a number of reasons. It is more likely an adjusted damage output relative to certain constraints.
Is it possible the datamining is looking at the wrong thing? That's possible. The problem is virtually every game developer I'm aware of considers data mining to be highly proprietary: they don't share the data or precise methodology with anyone, sometimes not even with their own designers. That makes it difficult to contradict the data, or convince the devs they should ignore it. In all my time working with game developers I've only managed that trick once, and it required an arsenal of information I don't think even exists at the moment for MCOC.
This business model is borderline criminal. Make a highly desirable product, advertise the highly desired product, make lots of money, change the product to be less desirable, then make a new desirable product and repeat.
You can't have it both ways.
If some champs are going to get a buff, some can be tuned down. Kabam doesn't get more money for doing this, they're just making sure the game is well balanced and not out of whack.
I still don't see where the issue is.
Cull's still going to be one of the top damage dealer in the game. Just be happy you've pulled him. Spare the thoughts for those who don't even have him.
Hmmm, it does sound familiar...
You are your own universe's bane, and in a way even worse than the Mad Titan, because he had to work with what was out there, while you balance your own creation due to lack of proper testing.
Your most probable result will be people getting gold feet more and more and end up feeling estranged with the game.
Well played guys. lol
I already asked Kabam Mike .. but he doesn't respond on here as often as Grounded Wisdom does .. and GW has been defending the data ..
therefore, one must conclude that he has seen that data ..
Therefore, I am asking to see that data .
From kabam ..
from Grounded Wisdom .. if he has it.
from you if you have seen it ..
from anyone who has seen it ..
I would like to see the data showing Cull is:
simple request ... and yet nobody can provide.
Except if u guys will give refund and rdt for all champ that u nerf, but come on be realistic, you wont.
Been playing since the beginning. I can deal with 12.0, the constant bugs, champs being released then changed AFTER their feature cav crystals are released.. but changing a champs usefulness after I’ve used rare resources to rank them up is the last straw.
This is how you alienate a fan base my friend. I implore you to reconsider, this is a course of action I will not tolerate.
and if you haven't seen it .. please stop defending it .. since if you haven't seen it, you cannot possible comment on it with any clarity, confidence or accuracy.
Thanks!
They could very easily come up with OP champs every 2 weeks (with no promise of a retune), and rake in $millions.
But instead they have signalled that they will tweak them - this surely is gonna make people spend less.
But they're doing it anyway so that the game is balanced going forward and there is longevity.
How can you blame them for that?
If kabam sticks to this policy then the best way to resolve this issue is to stay away from buying any cavalier or grandmaster crystals in future until at least after a champs "probationary period". At least then you know you are safe.
And unfortunately that also is the only type of action kabam would pay attention to.
If this is yet another investment gone awry [I also took bugged Supreme as a six star to rank two] that’s finally it for me. I’m done. I don’t even want to go into great detail on this subject. It’s just not the way a game should be run. I find it entirely unbelievable that nobody in development knew how hard this champ would hit. That’s just inconceivable to me. If I design a jet engine, I shouldn't be surprised if it can power a plane.
Barring rank down tickets and additional compensation for anyone who spent a ton of time and/or units to get Cull, I will not spend another eurocent on this game. Pinky promise.
