Happy Halloween! Or not...

So what's up with not running a micro event for Halloween? I'm not asking for a free crystal (though at least a special offer would be nice). But Halloween not even being acknowledged? It's like fan boys favorite holiday. Lol. The only other time where it's socially acceptable to dress up as your favorite marvel hero is comic con, and after spending all my money in this game, God knows I can't afford THOSE tickets. (yes I am aware you can also dress up while serving justice, but with my carpal tunnel from playing Mcoc it makes it difficult to hold my Billy club) I'm hoping I'm wrong and maybe there will be a surprise offer or pop up event.

I’m not on the high tier player list. I played occult labs everyday and got about 2 T4B cats from shards. I don’t need those. I’m in overflow. I have over 500 klyntar shards because I never need to buy the buffs for the symbioid. The spooky crystal gave me 1000 PHC shards. I got much more out of just playing Act 4 than all that October had to offer.
Act 4 is permanent content, that’s like saying you get more from LoL and act 5 than the uncollected event
Best rewards I've had in a long time lol. If October was a mess I hope we get some more messes.
This.
Glad to see some discourse in here about this month's events! OP, while it may seem like it's been a while since he arrived, the Summoned Symbioid, and all of the boosts and events that revolved around him were designed to mark Halloween. We thought that instead of a short event, we'd celebrate all month long! We don't always do the same thing every year (although, Mode Specific Boosts are a staple of our October events) for any Holiday or event, and wouldn't want to, because that would get predictable and dull!
You guys should make this an official announcement. Personally I never found a great use for my Symbioid because he is only R2, but I see where you are coming from and agree. The symbioid is a lot of players’ top champion and that is there Halloween reward. I highly suggest you disclose this on an official announcement.
This month’s Event Quest and the Occult Labs were a perfect place to use your Summoned Symbioid. With the Enhancements, you had the capability to clear content that you normally wouldn’t. This was stated in the Event Announcement post, and it was all over the forums/internet. If you had continued with your Symbioid, and ranked it up, you would have been able to clear Epic and Symbiote Difficulty with ease. This in turn, would have given you some very good rewards that would definitely help a “middle tier” player.
If I can complete act 4 for the first time and get nowhere near HALF the rewards from the monthly stuff then it’s not balanced in my opinion
And I’ll never know the sadness when you get it taken away
1. Kabam Mike-- there's a holiday almost every month of the year. Its like saying you Introduced IMIW for Christmas to prevent cold snap. I do appreciate you taking time to read and comment though.
2. The symbiotes full potential couldn't be fully reached for most until well into halfway through the event, if at all.
3. I acknowledge the fact there was the release of the spooky and scary crystals. A high price to pay for a more then likely 4 star. (though, full disclosure, I bought it and duped my 5* GR)
4. A big movie release without a celebrity challenge? No Tom hardy event? Especially with the symbiot event going on? Weak.
5. The load times have been atrocious. The best you can hope for with a 20 minute boost on the symbiote is about 6 fights if everything goes right and you stack another 4 boosts on top. Watch seatins video, but don't follow it. I made that mistake. 140 klintar for about 3/4 of a path on act 2 and 3.breaking that down- last act alone is 700.
6. Lastly, thank you everyone who read this and commented. I feel like whatever your opinion-- voicing it helps the creators and players. Players usually find something they can relate to, and creators see what the issues might be, and will improve for the next month.
Thank you everyone for your well thought out opinions.
We understand that some of you were not as happy with this year's Halloween Celebration, but this has turned into a rant about a lot of things that are not really the original topic. We won't have any more to add to the subject, but want to thank you for the feedback because it does help us better understand what's important to our summoners, and helps us moving forward.
We're going to close this thread down now.
