Bullshit event

Jsto76

It seems like the game is lately catering more to the high spending, "more valuable to the company" type players. Im a retired Navy veteran and get my Navy pension and VA disability on the first of every month. I always set aside about $100-$150 on the first of the month to use to re-generate my coins and help upgrade a few wrestlers. Other than that, I always just relied on playing all the great solo events throughout the week, and also would visit the WWE Champions website and get the free claims they gave out to help me throughout the month. The past few months this game has gone downhill in a hurry. The free claims that so many people would enjoy have been taken away, and it seems like lately the events throughout the week have gotten slimmer and slimmer. I go in the game today and all there is to do is the Blitz, where I, and i can almost guarantee that at least half of the games players, have absolutely none of the wrestlers required, but I bet all the high spending players do. I still love this game and will continue to play when there are events that can be played, but for a while my money will stay with me, and will continue to hope that the game creators/managers will get this game back to where it was when it was a lot better and geared toward everyone, not just the higher echelon of player.

I spend far more than I should on this game, and I was still 2 superstars short on this blitz. They’re completely ruining this game with all this garbage. Tired of it solely being for players who can spend indiscriminately. Do better , Scopely.

ever since 6* was launched this game is going way too much towards you have to pay to win. People say 50% I would actually say closer to 90% of players can’t play this blitz. Please reconsider this as it’s just alienating players. This midweek we get this dumb, can’t do event, but no doubt in two weeks time we will be asked to do real blitz, showdown and everything else in a 5 minute window.

😒 New Blitz Format 😒

I’m not sure why you changed it. If I had to guess you feel like to many factions were maxing the contest. More importantly faction that don’t spend were maxing the contest. What ever the reason the new format is terrible. People spent money and put in time trying to get the token for HOF Nash in last weeks mid week event. But this event just tells us it was a waste of time. 

The required contest superstars for hard mode are way too rare. Making impossible for nearly all the faction minus the top 5 to do anything. But you have most of the MLC solo point locked behind it. 

You could at least put a contest superstar in normal mode. So that it’s not just the bare min points that everyone has to get. But You refuse to do even that. 

These blitz contest are the biggest examples of you telling you’re players you do not want us maxing the events at all. To be here for a contest that once allowed players to have options is very discouraging. All it does is push players away. 

I know I’m just a needle in a hay stack full of money. I just hope someone reads this and hears what we players you customers are displeased about

Adam374617

I have no issue with the Blitz but scopely have yet again screwed over players by having a faction event for a Nash chase coin.

Imagine spending last week so you could get the coin to then find out this week you can’t because your faction is going to struggle to max it!

More information is required regarding the contests that will take place for the Nash coin. How’re players meant to plan when you throw in a faction contest out of their control?

KR4Y2EE

In the in game store, it says complete all FREE milestones of midweek contests to earn Nash HOF. BUT, you have blocked the Hard mode blitz using required wrestlers that have NEVER been available for free.

In order to grind Normal blitz to max the faction contest, we will need 102 blitz tickets to be made available, in order to complete 204 matches. Currently there are only 40 tickets available FOR FREE, meaning it's not even possible to hit the 4th milestone to get those 10 tickets.

Clearly something needs to change here. Either change the Hard blitz requirements so everyone can compete using wrestlers that aren't hidden behind paywalls, increase the Normal blitz points, or make a lot more blitz tickets available so that you can stay true to your word.

We WANT to complete all FREE milestones of January Midweek Contest to earn brand new Kevin Nash HOF, but you, Scopely, are preventing us from doing that, making this screenshot and its text, false.

drban

The actual blitz where you morons have put heavy restrictions on letting heavy spenders, such as myself, also get locked out while claiming that hof Nash is free, only tells me two things. You don't use logic when saying/doing something and you want people pouring in literal million $s to get all the champs as you made the pull chance way more trash than it was before; so free is essentially past blood money. Absolutely terrible people, i.e., scopely running down something to the ground which gave a lot of people good fun and nostalgia.

Chili125

Don't know why you guys keep lying to your players. So frustrating when you say it's an attainable free event then lock milestones behind a pay for play wall. So many people are already on the verge of quitting the game and you keep pushing players further toward that. Please do better.

Animal23

The Blitz as a whole is actually really good. I like this model a lot. You get to claim special blitz tickets for free and get to trade in old blitz tickets for special blitz tickets which everyone pretty much as a ton of. The nodes are very short and very easy making grinding pretty easy……… But the hard mode characters are bullshit. Between HOF Warrior, Priest, Ford, and Godfather almost nobody in my faction can do hard-mode. It’s definitely way too lopsided when 90% + of the community can’t do something. Also using HOF Warrior as the only bonus character only in hard mode also shitty considering how rare he still is. And lastly the Nash medallion in the final milestone of an event that can’t me maxed for free is a huge low blow considering we were told we can collect them all in free milestones.

Johnny434599

So much for earning Nash for free. So glad I busted my ass last week to get that coin just to get screwed over week 2. Figure your game out.

sp11

To parrot what other people have said, it's both alarming and disappointing that HoF Nash is not free to obtain as we were all led to believe at the start of the 2nd half of this Mega MLC. I hope that this was just an oversight that will be corrected, and not the powers that be deciding to put the screws to the lesser factions.

Give us an honest chance to get Nash.

JwL926731

Help us get the “Free” Nash, hof, u claimed to be “Free”! We spend enough on weekend cards. Let not get greedy here. I understand u gotta make money to keep the game going but you cant give us false hope that we can get a new wrester for a free and make it impossible for us to get. We spend plenty on weekend cards and other events. Dont do this kind of misleading events. Plz.

Lukeario23

The game has slowly been moving towards a more premium product in regards to maxing events. Other than the feud warscore event every other event requires CSS who are generally extremely rare in order to score a big chunk of points. Yes this rewards those who have spent a lot in the past and rightly so. The big issue is it’s generally physically impossible to make up the points via grinding. Generally it’s 200 matches per missing character. This is way too much.

Anyway back to this blitz event. extremely poor putting the Nash medallion in the final milestone that clearly can’t be hit for free. At the very least this should have been put in milestone 4 giving the vast majority of players a chance of grabbing it for FREE as stated. The more the game moves towards pay to play the more players you’ll lose on a weekly basis.

The_Lost_Ones_21

I really enjoy this game and have been dedicated to it for years, but I refuse to spend money on it. I never have, and I never will, and I understand that puts me at a disadvantage. I am fine with that, but I should still be able to at least compete. Everything should be available to everyone if they are willing to grind, but that is slowly becoming impossible, and players like myself are being completely eliminated. That is extremely disappointing, because like I said, I have been dedicated to this game for years. Just not sure how much longer you will allow that to happen. PLEASE create avenues within the game for players like myself to have the ability to remain relevant and compete.

chrisb56

My biggest issue is the Kevin nash medallion should be in the free milestones. It's in the final milestone which is nowhere near a free milestone. Even if 100 people do the normal blitz (the free blitz hard cannot be done for free either the characters needed) that milestone cannot be meant. It requires everyone to do hard mode and spend money on pulls. The medallion should be where it can be obtained for free to, so scopely can keep its word.

Oreilly86

Scopely wont change anything at all

MikeKitch75

I spend a ridiculous amount of money on this game. I currently can not play the Hard blitz due to requirements. So how are f2p or non big spenders expected to be able too?

This chase for HoF Hall tokens was supposed to be attainable. Yet there is not enough tickets for a faction of 100 to complete every normal blitz and reach the 5th milestone.

That is a BS event aimed solely at the monster spenders. It even excludes many that have dumped well over 20 thousand US $ into the game.

This is not a reasonable event to obtain the "free" Nash token.

Do right Scopely!!!

Bob879683

I thought Nash was supposed to be available via weekly free milestones? In order to get the token, factions must max the event, which requires minimum four characters that have NEVER been available for free. I spend $30-40 monthly and I have none of the required cards for the hard blitz. This event is totally out of scope of what was rolled out. I understand that it should be hard to get Nash, but if it’s meant to be available via free milestones, it should be grindable for all players with common cards. This doesn’t come close to obtainable even for my top 40 faction, which is just dumb.

Roger_Mortis213

I'm in a fairly high level faction. I'm 1 out of 100 that can meet the requirements.

Not much else to be said.

tj8594

Agree with above comment. There is no way to obtain the "free" Nash medallion if you can't do hard mode simply bc not enough tickets were given out. Now if the 10 ticket pack in the game shop had renewed at the reset today (1/12/23) like the timer appeared that it would, perhaps we would have a chance. Now we have no chance at maxing without spending. Classic Scopely bait and switch....make it right

MrOfficer1654

Even if you’re in a Top 10 faction everyone would have to spend over $15 to max the faction event. To have a faction event and make the only way that the event can be maxed is by spending is despicable

Adam374617

Math isn’t a strong point at scopely is it? I can fully understand hard, which if given another 10 tickets at reset this contest would’ve been touch and go to max but you decided not to reset making it impossible unless you’re in the top 6 factions.

Is anyone able to explain how the final milestone can in anyway be classed as free?

Bazza4444

Again. False advertisement towards an event . When you have to spend in a event to try and obtain so called free milestone Nash shards . Leading us all on false presences. Every ticket sent in . You talk about fairness . Look the word up before reiterating it in future .

Kelvin77_

I understand yall have to make money But there should be some integrity into it.

Just think about like this, I give the elderly a discount but overcharge kids.

Yall have done better just don't forget about the little man who loves your game but just not a whale.

Mander52

I echo alot of what has already been posted, so no need to rehash it all.  

First and foremost, it's one thing to make "mistakes", but to outright say something is FREE in any game, then making it completely impossible to achieve is outright lazy and a slap in the face to any user, F2P to the Whales. It shows the time, effort or research was not performed to assure that what was claimed was actually true and attainable in the fashion it was stated. It also goes to show Scopely use the word “FREE” very liberally, in a lot of other ways that are not true. Many, many weekend contests we are shown how we can earn “FREE” rewards and milestones. Then it turns out these “FREE” rewards/milestones are tucked behind pay-walled and/or very rare characters, which makes the reward not attainable for FREE.

The biggest issue Scopely has is transparency with their community. I've been playing for 6 years and only once, this past summer, did Scopely actually own up to a mistake, be fully transparent about it and then fairly compensate players for the mistakes and issues that have plagued this game from day one. I for one thought maybe this could be a huge turning point in the way Scopley operates and communicates, even gaining some trust from the player base. Alas, things have def not changed or gotten any better, if anything it has gotten worse.

Secondly, although we have no communication yet, using the "Subject to Change" moniker should not be a reason or excuse to hide behind over and over again. Scopley has the data, for every player, to know what players have what in game….. everything from the characters owned, coins, tokens, TP, how far away we are from certain features, etc.... EVERYTHING. If the entire community cannot achieve a goal for FREE, then it should not be stated as such.

I know this specific situation could all be a mistake and the proper tickets were not given out correctly, but your continued lack of communication and transparency causes this uproar from a majority of the player base. Playing a game should be fun, a lot of times this game seems like a chore. I don't mind grinding a game as an alternative to throwing down thousands of dollars to compete, but even grinding doesn’t keep alot of players competitive..... that makes the difference between fun and a chore. Should all the whales have some advantage, yes I don’t disagree, but at least let the people who don’t spend like these others, have the ability to grind, be somewhat “equal” and have some sense of being able to keep up.

Stagger Lee

merged threads. This has been brought up to the team and they're looking into it.

MIKEYT85

Just want to chime in and co-sign my disappointment in this event as it stands right now.

In general these style Blitz events turn into spending to Max for many factions. I would like to see you allow more of a grind for factions to Max w/o spending, or don't put key items in non-free milestones such as the HOF Medallion for Nash this Month and Solo MLC points.

Specifically when it comes to Faction events 1% of the final milestone should be relatively accessible with methods to push. Huge Talent up or Super restricted points are frustrating to much of the player base.

DearYou

Admittedly, I am on a team that has maxed and I was able to squeak into hard mode with the bottom line only, but this event is kinda stinky. Even on a team that has maxed, plenty of my teammates had to slog through normal runs from people missing. It seems like in general it's really easy for many people to not be able to do hard, which in turns hurts their ability score. Which hurts the team etc etc.

My main thing is with advertising Nash being accessible for free by completing midweeks it's pretty stinky to make this medallion in a spot that many, many teams and players can't get.

To me, this isn't going to help engagement with the game, which isn't healthy. I'm sure to many, there was a decent appeal to being able to potentially get the new Nash for free, but when you kinda pull the rug out from a lot of the player base in week two, I don't love the way this road could continue down.
