  • Truth be told you are slowly taking the fun out of this game. The rewards are getting worst. You want us to spend lots of money to improve our rosters ........... In return we get useless shards.

    The events make no sense. Shouldn't the SD and Feud go along with the month long events.

    I find this last showdown event very good and playable to be honest. You made it easier for those players that don't spend much in this game and so can't have all the characters that you need for show. but still, there is a way to make points and achieve good prizes. Also, there are more resources and with 5s superstars this is what players need, more resources. The only bad thing about this event is that we can't achieve any shards of Priest and also 4sg superstars is kinda hard to get with shards or with bags but after all this was a good event from my point of view. Good resources, low tours and the opportunity to win another superstars than Priest.

    • Solo event locked behind a paywall is never a good thing. Although the CSS selection and rewards were good, with many being able to recruit 1 or 2 new superstars, it does not justify the inability to max without spending.
    • Faction event was a standard event, not great but also not bad. Perhaps in the future we can see something "special" as reward but not every weekend. Something like a unique strap, like we had for Booker T, or maybe a new gear.
    • Tours were nice. Easy requirements and rewards were decent. Perhaps we could have seen more points for the solo event but it was a positive part of the weekend.
    • Loot once again could have been better by removing common characters you can obtain for free in the league silver loot or blitz bags.

    Positives:

    ·        The contest superstars were a good mix between what was available with a few rare guys. It was a nice touch that they were open to various types of a superstar. (Example: any Shawn Michaels or any HoF)

    ·        The rewards were mostly nice (see below for more on this.) They were worth the effort, especially for folks who were already close to getting Johnny Gargano.  

    ·        The faction contest was also fair and a good mix of requirements to make it achievable.

    Constructive:

    ·        There was no way to get any Damien Priest shards and I did not see anyone in my faction of 100 people actually get him. It would be nice if it was slightly possible to achieve him or at least some shards for him.

    ·        As is the case with most showdowns, once you get around the 500 notary mark, it’s filled with 5 star silver Mankind Mr Socko. (Many of whom have anti stun belts.) It would be really nice if it was easier to get anti-bleed belts or if there was a trainer/coach that reduced bleed damage significantly. Mr Socko is becoming the new Zombie Stone Cold as a barrier to get anything done in showdowns.

    the way samoan showdown worked with proper grinding i achieved last milestone but it was not possible here.

    there should be also a point system for only winning showdown matches so f2p can grind as hell.

  • Not sure how you have a contest and I walk away with no shards. The showdown breakdown was late so missed scoring opportunities. At least showdown is not a grind session.

    Why is it that every showdown event is becoming pay to max. Even if you have all the required players you still won't max it with lit spending a few hundred dollars.

    To a point rewards were good and game play was good. Seemed to get a good balance of opponents.

    Cons - Limited in how far you can go, did not have all the characters required. Hit maximum showdown points for the day early and could go no further so for half the day the event was pointless

    Chances of getting the character at even 2 star near impossible.

    Nice resources from event ...

    May be the odds need to be better , hit the Penultimate Milestone , tours all I got was minimum Gargano shards...

    Solo Tour:

    Pros:

    Accessible to everyone, not limited to having specific characters.

    Good basic rewards.

    Cons:

    Needing the same superstars as you needed in the SD for points seemed like too much, maybe mix up to avoid too much overlap.

    Showdown:

    Pros:

    Good points for a wide variety of superstars, which is nice.

    Cons:

    As always rapidly come against the wall of 5 star silver Mr Sockos and zHHH very early. the only way though is through lots of refresh or luck. Maybe lowering the refresh cost could be a solution.

    Problems with points at the start of the event caused confusion and could potentially have caused problems for some factions.


    Overall Event Solo and Faction milestones were nice, with good rewards, although maybe some Damien Priest shards would have been nice.

    Estuvo bien porque el concurso tenia muchos buenos premios, y casi la mayoria de personas recluto a varios luchadores gracias a las bolsas.

    Y para mejorar seria que cuando las personas ya hayan recogido las 15.000 monedas bajen sus defensas para que todos podamos progresar.

    Solo Contest was good. Though we don't have a chance for the new character , we could Atleast get shards/tp for the existing once.

    No problem with the tours as well.

    But may be the task of getting points using the new character (Damien here) could be replaced.

    Overall 8/10


    Faction Contest rewards were good but I guess the tasks of winning SD were a bit too much

    Overall 7/10

    The last event worked well with getting points for the solo event seeming like they were easier to obtain. I preferred the gauntlet blitz rewards being cases with a chance to get wrestlers we may not have

    I liked this event got a good chunk of drew shards and gargano shards from Ultimate chests to the point where I'm 185 from recruiting drew and 245 from Johhny.. Very much appreciate the open tours and the fact we didn't need a bonus person to get the ultimate bag more of that please 👍🏽 Also requirements were slightly more friendly

    Rewards were as usually pretty good, good amount of coins especially. Few bugs at the beginning of the event, but it's compensated so it's ok. Showdown events are becoming better and better. I like that.

    Low telnet roster getting so hard sd

  • adapasuresh

    Not even a single shard of the new superstar in the milestone bags. I maxed solo and faction event was maxed too. But 0 shards of the new superstar. Meh event

  • Dave_Ecc

    I thought the faction event was attainable but the actual rewards could have been better. More Damien Priest grab bags would have been better.

    The scores for the solo contest were good although it is the actual showdown event that is always the issue. As a player with no 5SS superstars I find it hard to max the first lot of sd event coins because suddenly every Opponent is 5SS and that is already almost impossible to win against, especially against an OP Opponent like Mankind. It is already impossible for a regular player to max the event because of the bonus contest superstars needed but the SD itself shouldn't be impossible to max

  • Mauricio3012
    Mauricio3012 Member

    There should be a way to max an event with out spending like crazy. Even after spending $200 I still couldn’t max solo event. I had all but Preist.

    Losing in SD and hope that you can get defensive wins is not a good way to get points. I was attack once in the whole event. Even after lowing defense. This makes no sense.

    Event should work from the moment it starts.

  • BIGGUNS7

    Event is good and tour is playable.

    some bad part is many times game crash, loading error, HP reduce start of the match, some time perk despair in showdown.

    I thought the showdown was better then previous ones. The fact that the player not available doesn't exist anymore is great. The Faction event was tough. That is one that truly took grinding, but the majority of us have lives outside the game and just can't put in that kind of effort. I wish there was a standard for each showdown (solo and faction). Change the superstars, but keep it the same. The game gets so out of sorts each month anymore with so many constantly new superstars coming in. Wish it focused on the free and chase, with maybe 1 newbie. Let's start reskining some old superstars, like you did with JBL Hawk. Some, like me weren't around in the beginning to get Dudley's, Arn, RVD as well as others. They may not be great, but would love to be able to get them. As far as Priest, I have nothing good nor bad to say. Maybe instead of tp, coins, and gear for tours prior to showdown, have event coins on both levels. Obviously less for any superstar used and a significant amount more for specific superstars needed.

    Thanks for the opportunity.

    I like that it wasn't too hard to get a match. The special wrestlers weren't too rare to have, although it took a while to get the proper bonus points set up. The Daily rewards for this and the monthly event have been hit & miss in terms of availability.

    Luckily in the last faction milestone, I was able to get Priest at 3☆B, so goal achieved, and that's what you want. A decent chance at the chase wrestler.

    The event itself was pretty good as far as structure.. even not having most of the guys, you could reach milestone 11,12.. that's a lot of stuff.. however, the fact that some points didn't count (specially on the start) and the problem with the daily solo contest from the MLC (NOT SOLVED BTW) were really bad, and I hope you guys solve that for the next MLC.. overall, it was good

    Overall a decent event. Would have been nice to get some shards for Damien in the tours. Showdown was good.

  • IRLGearoid

    A few disappointing aspects, but overall a pretty good event without being great.

    Pros:

    • Good bag characters (Gargano, Drew, and HTM) and reasonable shard amounts allowed many people to recruit these characters.
    • Tours weren't too restrictive or difficult.
    • Faction event was reasonable in difficulty and rewards. I would like to see these events add something more 'special' at the end such as a gear, skill plate, or a strap with a good bonus.

    Cons:

    • Many players could not be attacked during the entire event. Other players were attacked constantly. Due to the 'earn showdown coin' point method, the entire event and leaderboard were skewed. Also, this limited most players to the 8.8m milestone with no realistic way to progress towards the final milestone.
    • Yet another M/M showdown. The lack of female events is really disappointing.
    • No shards towards Preist. Players should be rewarded with at least some progress towards a recruit at some point in the future.

    The solo contest was fine but the faction contest was crappy to try and score points in. As well the daily portal rewards haven't showed up yet in the portal.

  • Hhhonlyfan

    Contest wasn't brilliant unless you spent.


    Too many matches in a short space of time needed to get any milestones.

    The good part was being able to get some points and some coins etc from the bottom milestones but unless you were a top faction no one stood a chance.

  • DiegoSev

    I liked these contests, both the solo and faction one. I think the superstars required for the bonuses were fairly picked and balanced. Nevertheless, I think that putting some bonus or rewards for placing determined superstars at defence (kind of how it is for feuds) could make it more interesting as it is easy to find matches with 5SS Sockos. Maybe even narrowing the superstars to be used in the whole event not only by gender but by class or perhaps making SDs of different difficulties as the weekly blitzes

  • TheRealMysterE

    I found this SD to be rather enjoyable. The most recent changes to the SD system, makes it not as stressful as when you would lose multiple points while in one match.

    That said, the start was mildly annoying, where some of the bonus character points weren't working for the solo event.

    Aside from that I would give this weekend 8/10.
