Better Communication

SenseiKreese

The recent change in the Talent Up structure has highlighted a big issue that many players have with this game. There is a severe lack of communication between Scopely and the players. Outside of big technical updates to the game, we rarely or ever get more than a few days notice of what is going on with this game. I think the overall game play experience for players would go up if there was better communication from Scopely on what we can expect.

I understand that not every aspect of this game is completely mapped out months in advance, but I would like to think that there is an outline of what is coming up and telling us what we can expect even in broad terms would be better than what we get now.

A prime example of this is the new changes to Talent Up. This isnt going to be another bash post, so dont worry about that. As I stated in that other thread, the only issue I have with the change is that you only gave us 3 days notice for a major change to one of the most popular aspects of this game. That just isnt right. Now I know that it is entirely possible and maybe probable that all of the details werent finished until right before you posted the change on Friday, but again, I would like to think that you had this planned more in advance than that, and even a small heads up would have been welcome a week or two ago. Even something as small as a "Big Changes Coming to Monthly Talent Up" post in the blog or here on the forum. Im not asking for the entire event mapped out for me two weeks in advance, but again just a signal that it is changing is better than what we got.

I also think that it would make people happier if other questions we have could be answered. Just a few off the top of my head or I have heard other players ask are:

Will there be a Shardamaina in the prizewall each month, and if so, is it possible to get a list of the shards that will be in it ahead of time?

Will we ever see another Masters of the Universe month or even a week or two long mini event? You can also insert Zombies/Mutants, and other gimmicky type cards in here

Can we get a list of requirements for the weekly/biweekly gauntlet blitzes? If you are going to tie these blitzes to the monthly faction contest, which is fine, it would be nice to know which ones a player can do or cant do so that they can plan out their ticket usage accordingly. There is nothing worse than holding tickets back one week in a blitz that I can score well on for the following week only to have it be one that I cant score well in.

Im sure others will have suggestions too, but I think I made my point. Again, I totally understand that all aspects and details that go into gameplay arent finalized until its close to the release, but some communication of future events would be much better than what we get now.

The more notice you get the more likely it is to change when it goes live. Frequently changes are made right up until something goes live. The feedback has been negative about changes after announcements so with the number of changes that are made to events and the frequency of those changes the decision was to wait until things were mostly set before putting out information on them. This weekends event for example had some significant changes less than 24 hours before it went live.

This game thrives off of the players not knowing what's coming. If we can't plan ahead it's more likely we will have to buy things to compensate for the sub-optimal choices we made the week before.

Posts need to done sooner we all know the subject to change disclaimer but at least having an idea helps us plan our week and days out until the event

Very much so. Look at the loot offerings at the beginning of an event in comparison to the final hours of an event or even AFTER the feud/showdown.

Take this past feud loot for example. At the beginning of the event, you could purchase 7 loot coins on the portal for $19.99. At the end of the event, that same $19.99 got you 9 loot coins. If customers knew tomorrow’s offers would include 2 more loot coins, everyone would wait until the better value offer is available.

If you bought the 7 loot coins and were close enough to need to hunt the final shards, you would have more loot coins to pursue the needed shards. Going forward, I’ll never purchase offers like that until the last offer is available.
