    good people from scopely I only ask that this hbk be given to a person who since I've known him in this game wants to have an HBK and can't spend real money since he's poor. His name is mctrueno and he's very active and he wants that one HBK new instead of asking for me I want to ask for him and it doesn't cost you anything to give it to him please I ask from my heart

    Regarding the event, it seems to me that this month is being incredibly entertaining

    Regarding the month, it is still very good, attainable rewards such as the new bietrish

    I am a very, very fan of hbk I would hope to win I would be very excited because I haven't had very good luck and I don't have the acrobat or the battering ram I would really like to be able to get it out it would be my first top tier good luck everyone and keep it up it's coming out all good this month there was a small bug in the showdown that the damage of the gems was reduced sometimes but well I already reported it anyway very good idea about the degrees and all good seriously I wish that hbk I would very much like to win it I wish it very much

    In playing the event so far, it would be great to see more accessible opportunities for players to get the new wrestlers, including removing the shards from certain "guaranteed" sections of the new loot

    Shawn Michaels is a wrestling legend! The first ever Grand Slam champion. Three times WWE Champion. Three times WWF Intercontinental Champion. WWF European Champion. TWA Heavyweight Champion. Heavyweight World Champion. According to WWE, Shawn Michaels is the top 1 of the top 50 wrestlers of all time. I would love to have this champion in my lineup!

    I like that there are multiple tours that can be played throughout the weekend on top of the actual event (in this case a faction feud). I do not like that the Challenge modes are all 5-star gold matchups. I think Normal mode should be an easy contest character win for all and not a battle just to get contest rewards for beating a 5-star gold with a special character. Also, the theme of the faction feud makes perfect sense for all the contest superstars needed for extra points in the feud, but why are one set of Street Profits able to get points but not the other version of the Street Profits released? Overall, Shawn Michaels is one of the greatest and my favorite wrestler of all time and Shawn Michaels, Rocker once again continues the trend of a strong character by an actual strong wrestler and not just releasing a new character that is Overpowered but has not carried his weight in the ring to justify it.

    My only piece of feedback would be for the event superstars to be at least given away as 1*b then we have a better opportunity to compete in specified matches. Other then that, this MLC is a blast I love how y'all really incorporate the event with the fact that SummerSlam is in Nashville

    I think this month has been really good in terms of writing the wrong where mistakes have been made. I have enjoyed it. I will say the fued has been off to a rocky start and I think it would be a good move to extend the feud by an extra 24 hours due to the issues.

  • Again the brainstorm and overall concept of this event is awesomely awesome. It definitely hits in the nostalgia feels.The only criticism i have is to better the different levels of difficulty so that new players can have fun with the event,and to eliminate the feeling that they need to pay to win. I understand that it takes time to strengthen your team, but lets face facts ....not everyone will throw hundreds of dollars to compete. I left WWE SUPERCARD for this same reason. These games should come down to skill ,not how much money you can burn

  • Would love an HBK but I’ll wait great feud need more like this

    The good:


    Tours, that’s about it. Though there could be MORE. I don’t see why there’s minimal effort here on your part to make contests seem less copy/paste.

    The bad:


    Feud… for a game that is going on 5 years old, we shouldn’t be seeing these issues.

    Warscore contest is unfairly skewed as a result of the feud issues and now the entire event is wrecked. I do find it a bit… coincidental that specific factions are able to participate while others are completely locked out.

    This entire weekend event is a bust. You should take your L with the lashings from the community and just give the entire player base that has been active during this period the new Shawn.


    Our feedback is constantly requested, yet you seem to do nothing worthwhile with it and instead do things that aren’t even asked for (a tier list that is biased towards your odds and “rarity” that ultimately proves nor means anything in determining a character’s worth in the game).

    MOST IMPORTANTLY… there should be a working weekend crew that is present to fix things like this. If that isn’t a feasible option, than your QA process needs to be more stringent.

    In this fude like alweys many bugs and other problems.

    I can`t play fude seven hours becouse of lags and connection with servers problem.

    Cant win emeny becouse they have power cup 25k i have 13k.

    Contest`s revards bed becouse like always you can`t have vote you want. You can get only shard for characters you can`t get for a 1-2 years because you add new chars and old disappiring from drop lists.

    The RockerSlam feud event has been too glitchy. Even after it was said to be fixed, I still encounter issues with the feud starting and ending.

    The rewards for the feud are fair. Though the tour event is too hard. Rocker Shawn is already out of my league but having him start with full color fill makes it impossible.

    hello it's me again 1 when the winner is announced 2 I come to report another error the last 2 tours should add extra with the team but any character can be added to advance more the same I already did everything possible and my bad luck it's still the same I only have this left to see if I can get hbk who is my favorite fighter and I only have the icon to see if my bad luck changes well good night

    Unfortunately, there were a lot of issues with the events this weekend that kind of soured the experience. Two things I think could be approved are - 1) Don’t make the challenge fight character 5 star gold across all difficulties. That sucks. For those who don’t have a strong enough character to even attempt the fight, they’re totally left out. 2) Rocker Shawn Michaels should be the boss on at least one the the tour tiers other than challenge. Wasn’t able to experience the character at all cause if this.

    I think this event is quite similar to the last month one. There are always the same problems: the most interesting goals are almost impossible to achieve. For example: showdown event has an upper limit of points that can be earned through matches. It isn't possible to complete the event goals only with matches.

    Same situation with the feud.

    We need a more balanced game.

    Really enjoyed the nostalgic feel to the event, showing key moments through HBKs career and various feuds is a great idea.

    The challenge chapters still seem too hard for starting players and can give them a sense that the rewards are unobtainable - staggering the difficulty/ rewards would be a better plan.

    Rewards gained with specific wrestlers such as Brutus, are a great way to get underused wrestlers used - I also particularly enjoyed the specific tag team challenges.

    Overall I’ve enjoyed the Rockerslam event and look forward to interesting events like this!

    Feedback for Rockerslam Fued Event

    Positives

    • I will point out, although the fued couldn't have gotten any worse. Props to Scopely's team taking their time out during the weekend to try and fix the issues with Fued.
    • Good call on extending the fued time to allow for time lost due to the issues. This allowed more to try and get the 40m warscore maxed.
    • I didn't have any issues being able to fued and my only issues were the match-making as we kept getting paired with weaker teams and it's probably going to be nightmare for them to try and beat our bigger fued line-up.
    • Awarding an Ultimate Strap and Medal is a nice change of reward scenery so like the change up here.

    Negatives

    • The fix didn't seem like it got applied immediately but gradually started to fix itself so got paired up with weaker teams resulting in longer fued times.
    • If the community manager is away over the weekend, there really needs to be a back up person from Scopely to officially announce or keep your players informed of what's happening rather than keeping us in the dark. Our only source of information is then relying on CC or our Faction Leaders who get info from Town Hall passed on but this shouldn't be our option. It needs to come from an official at Scopely.
    • The issue with time extending unfortunately isn't going to compensate those who are chasing leaderboards. Maybe it was good coincidence that the prize wasn't a card but just contest points.
    • Even though I liked the change to Ultimate Strap being the max warscore milestone reward, I hate the fact that the straps are random. PLEASE change this to perhaps align with the event character like New Gen Striker and maybe make it affiliation only so it's more rewarding rather than feeling like after a hard fued-grind and getting an ultimate strap that I will likely not spend the strap parts to use feels like such a waste of time. For the record, I pulled a Striker Attitude move damage Ultimate Strap....
    • Solo tours were restrictive with needing the use of Brutus Beefcake and Luke. If you're going to ask us to use Brutus then atleast make the Hell boss at 4SB or 4SG with no straps or better yet put a boss that's the same tier as the required CSS but hey you got to find some way of making people spend so I get that...
    • Was hoping for some proper compensation but other than extending the time and sending us our faction rewards to out inbox I haven't seen anything additional to address the issue with this fued. I'm hoping there's going to be more to come to compensate people for time lost.

    This whole month has started off in the wrong footing and has only been going down-hill with the second week... Think at this point, people aren't going to have any high hopes going to next week's Faction Boss Event without any issues... let's hope you prove us wrong and turn this MLC around!

    • the start was all but good with a lot of issues, bugs etc.
    • After big restart of servers (?) and resolving the major performance problems the feud worked out far better than any previous event for months. So, that shows me that Big S can improve, solve, and work on issues when we, the community, are addressing such things together.
    • All feud milestones could be accomplished without spending a dime (don't expect this being the standard next month but hey will take such things granted for sure!)

    As some galaxy bounty hunter would say, "This is the way", and really enjoying the game's current event of being able maxing some milestones... but, as I said, I do not expect things to turn around completely in favor of the players, no, that will change soon for sure.

    This is not me being toxic & not that you will read this or care

    How have you made this one of the worst weekend events ever ?

    How can you not afford a weekend coder to make sure events run smooth for a player base that is probably 65% P2P ? So not like the funds are not there for this .

    You extend the feud why in any way did you think or feel you where making the right call there ?

    being a uk player I stayed up till 4:00am to be meet with bugs like I’ve never seen before Finley made up for the missed feud time by calling in sick to work make it in to the top 150 only to find out I needed too stay up for 7hrs more to keep my place … hmm bad call not just for me but for a lot of players that like feuding ( only part of the game I still like and stick around for ) . The match making was way off also I was taking down 80k rosters with 170k talent I felt for the little players .

    Then today you do a nice thing by giving factions 4mil points to max the event so that makes all the coins and tp i spent worthless on cards I will never use ( thanks for that )

    It feels like your trying to put players off this game and only keep around the ones that spend loads ( webcoin nerf shows that ) .. I spend but not anymore it’s not worth it spending on a game where the company really dose not care one bit about its players .. you think offering free cards from 2yrs ago will make everyone happy and they forget your mistakes .

    we as players that farmed webcoins had that taken away from us but you as a publisher of this game can treat us like we mean nothing and that’s okay . As the whales will keep the game running for you … hmm bad businesses logic there think about it .

    This weekend event was one of worst events since the launch of the game and yep I am a day one player .

    come on guys do the right thing and make it right not in compensation in giving us a event and game that works .. as we would not need to be given compensation if you did your job right in the 1st place .

    Well...that was a bit of a disaster, wasn't it.

    Its probably not necessary to rag on the feud in here as everyone is well aware of what happened with it. I was able to play but it was incredibly buggy. Based on what I was able to experience i think most would have found it to be an enjoyable feud, had it worked properly.

    I'm just not a fan of the contest designs this year at all. Its rubbish. I finished the war score in the 2000s, the solo tour in the 2000s. I have less than 500 shards of Shawn. In previous years I was more often in the 5000-7000 range and I'd get about half of the needed amount. This is a terrible trend.

    Accuracy of the blog needs to improve. Take some responsibility for the information you put out at the start. "Subject to change" is not good enough.

    Overall though here is my biggest concern. Clearly 6 star is on the way and if the trend continues that means the existing parts of the game are all about to get harder. Its not even viable to attempt to play the game with less than 4 stars. Its going to be harder to do everything soon but at the same time you've clampped down on the number of chances to get new characters in each of these weekend events. I want to see much more reasonable chances to get characters, old and new. I want to see the growing list of completely unobtainable characters start to shrink. We don't need 9 versions of everyone currently in the game. Its ok not to bring out "new" characters every week if this is going to be the format every time.


    EDIT:

    Really appreciate the feud compensation level, exceeded my expectations for sure.

    We need to get actual tag link icons for everyone if we're going to have so many of them for a contest. Way too many generic hexagon link icons and no way to tell what they mean.

    The Rockerslam event was Mid at best but there were some interesting things such as Removing the Weekend Card from the Warscore leaderboard and putting points instead it was a good idea as tons don't have a chance to compete for it...

    Tours With Tons of points was too good as it gave a feeling of getting something or progressing but the downside of it was that we needed some Old or premium superstars as requirement which made us Unable to progress to hell mode eg: bushwackers needed in the first slot and I only have butch Max at 9k which resulted in not reaching the hell mode etc so instead of restricting to particular player make the requirements to contest superstar which will benefit everyone.

    Loot pulls were kinda terrible as I pulled and got only shards of old c tier superstars and the section of mega rare super rare were filled with b tier and c tier and only a handful of A and S tier which makes is question that should we pull or not and it is disappointing to see so many old superstars in rare section which is awful so a section like super rare Mega rare should feature only A or S tier premium superstars make the percentage low but make it and the featured guarantee sucks make it back to 2 to 3 guaranteed mega rares...

    Feud was terrible for many of us as many couldn't play

    The solo contest rewards were somewhat good as it was attainable but more solo mle points should be given in it as it is getting harder to max mlcs as there's no other way to get solo mle points..

    Faction feud rewards are getting worse there's nothing to watch out for in it which is questionable as it is harder to max nowadays so offer something which makes playerbase happy....

    Overall good rewards good tour but terrible feud And loot

    Hello everyone, please keep this thread related to the contest feedback only. For issues regarding the feud portion of the event and other complaints, please use the thread below


  • I liked the rewards although would always like more shards.

    I would like the characters in shard bags to be more rare.

    Can we use names to list the contest characters in feud? The tag link icon is zero help it doesn’t show who the characters are.

    Thank you for the time extension on the feud.

    Feedback on the HBK weekend contest:


    Let's leave aside the feud debacle.


    The weekend tours were doable and if we had fairly decently built superstars, we could reach the free milestones. That is a positive. HBK is also great.

    The faction contest depended on the feud points. The compensation helped sort it out, so props to where props are due.

    I would seriously request you guys to revisit the feud rewards. For something that people put in 20 hours, the rewards are abysmal. With 25 mil required for coin events the rewards can barely be helpful. More coins, more tp will help. This seriously needs to scale to the meta.

  • Syed898111
    Syed898111 Member

    My suggestion is if something is not working you end or cancel the event instead of extending.

    Example, Feud was not working as expected then you should cancel/end it instead you guys extended which was nightmare, everything was broken and the solution provided to us was extending the feud. People are not gonna stop playing because everyone will be chasing for leader board rewards, if they stop then they will miss the leader board rewards everyone has life and wants to spend with family however we spent endless hours over the weekend on this broken event.

    Due to this glitch you extended the feud so that everyone gets the chance to score 4,000,000 to get milestone stone rewards however you have provided this to all factions that had registered points which should be provided without extended the timer.

    In future just stop the event so that everyone can have good time with family instead of breaking our heads and showing anger towards you guys.

    You already know that the feud itself was a mess from start to finish. This critique is about the actual contest construction.


    Positives (Yes, I absolutely think there were some good changes to the event structure).

    1)     Warscore leaderboard giving a Solo Contest bonus. Feuding being directly tied to event success has been missing completely for a long time. This makes the feud much more competitive and interesting. It also allows for F2P players who have the grind mentality to compete again in the solo contest.

    2)     No Paid Steps. Huge boost to the competition aspect again. I dislike how the current meta basically requires a kick-out bonus to survive, but at least players are given the 40% without spending.

    3)     Feud Line Construction. Good, easily attainable bonuses and plenty of open roster spots.

    Negatives

    1)     Rewards: Resources. The rewards have taken a huge step back compared to the inflation in the evo contests. The coin and TP should be doubled at a minimum. You can see the player appetite for those resources with the way the broken store offer that gave out 100 million coin was scooped up.

    2)     Rewards: Shard Bags. The contest SS shard bags have been atrocious in the last 3-4 months. We went from being able to attain 80% of a SS reasonably to 50%-60%. The % of cards pulled from bags has been reduced significantly since the release of HOF Yoko. This event, you could not recruit Shawn even if you maxed ALL THREE EVENTS.

    3)     Rewards: Event Bags. What are these? Why do they exist? 20 shards of a pretty common character or a pittance of coins or tokens is a terrible return for a max milestone bag. You maybe got 7 bags over the course of the weekend if your faction maxed the event. If the bags are going to be more exclusive in number, they need MUCH better rewards. Again nothing has been adjusted for inflation, 1m coins is terrible, 5k strap parts won’t even unlock half a strap, one diamond token with 6s on the horizon is nothing. Either increase the bags by tenfold, or make a huge change to their contents. 20 shards of a guaranteed S-tier, sure I could see that. 20 shards of someone that is in the league loot is a slap in the face.

    4)     Feud Rewards: Tying the faction feud faction event scoring to the faction feud rankings is a bad change. It puts a ridiculous amount of pressure on the lower factions to spend already scarce and inflation cut resources to max the event.

    5)     New Straps: 90% of the pulled straps are wasted on undesirable cards or not even usable. Why are new, top-tier straps that are in your penultimate milestone for an event left up to random chance? If you want players to adopt that system and actually desire the strap and medals, then start by giving us some straps that are usable. Either a token prizewall to redeem one we need or make them universal by gender/class/era or anything that is less restrictive. Grinding to a 25m milestone only to sell the strap because it’s for a female New Gen Trickster is pointless.

    Broken Feud Response

    1)      Unreal how the “fix” to the broken feud managed to be wrong in pretty much every way.  Extending the feud by 10 hours AFTER the feud has been going for over 12 hours. You KNOW that the leaderboard contestants will play the full feud, so now you’ve punished your top players to play for an extra day AFTER changing the competition structure in a way that makes it way more dependent on the actual feuding.

    2)     Then it’s announced AT THE END OF THE FEUD CONTEST that players will get the 4m contest points for the feud no matter what. This comes after players have wasted tons of resources on New Gen players to max the event.

    3)     Disproportionate response to higher factions. The real losers of this broken feud are the lower factions and players that were getting matched with rosters they had no chance to compete with. Either wasting hours of feud time unable to fight (and missing rewards) or bombing their roster to get out of the feud and wasting tons of health packs. No doubt the final response is going to reward those who still managed to feud, but were inconvenienced not the players and factions that had no hope of competing with the broken mechanics.


    I do think there are some theoretical improvements that were made to the contest and I hope to see those going forward. But it can’t be stressed enough that competitive players ARE NOT YOUR BETA TESTERS. This update should never have gone live.
