    very good design of zombie rhea with good configuration it becomes a top zombie, in itself, as in all events, it is becoming difficult to complete a lot of spending for few resources, I suggest that in the routes they add points for faction event that not even the top fractions they have completed it by the reduction of bags with fragments, many problems with the red circle the line of brawl bonuses very good also very fair pairings

    Just another cut and paste event with dwindling rewards unless you spend a ton.

    The tours were ok and at least had a couple of bonus options.

    The faction event is a joke. You can’t even have your top spending factions max it. Go back to the drawing board on that or make it so factions want to at least try.

    The solo event is the same as it has been. Spend a lot and you can max and possibly get the weekly character. But since you release a new top tier each week, there isn’t much incentive to spend on these.

    This game has become boring and repetitive. Something needs to change or else you will keep losing players.

    She looks like a very fun character to use. I would love to win her.

  • Contest was great. But unfortunately, the odds of getting a top reward are too low. If the rewards for a marquee event are too astronomical people will eventually stop playing. I got some decent rewards but, after playing for years I have yet to get even one of the top rewards of any event. I love the game, characters are great, game play is ok. Raise the chance at getting a marquee superstar and it will be so much better.

    The faction contest was horrible!!!! There was not enough bonus for the characters we had to use. I feel as if it was a pay to win the Rhea. I know I don’t have a chance to win this prize. This game is getting old and no longer fun. IGN David1750

    Fued and tour requirements not too bad.

    Paltry rewards. Even top 500 in Fued and you get 10 Rhea shards.

    Faction event clearly behind a paywall to get the last 2 tiers, and those rewards are meh.

    I would like prizes in weekend tournaments to improve. Play all weekend for 125000 and a belt ?

    Also prizes all around could improve

  • the truth is that it would be nice if people didn't have to be in a top 10 faction, spend a thousand dollars, or basically win the lottery to get a character. I ended up with less than half the required shards. which, if she's anything like previous zombie events, means that in 2 years if I'm still playing, I still won't have her.

    The Rhea Ripley "Recurring Nightmare" event was the run of the mill solo and faction feud event that we've been seeing lately. It's becoming very repetitive and boring doing the same style events over and over and achieving the same outcomes each time.

    IGN : ironsheik84

    The Good :

    • The tours again were fine. Lots of options for the mens tour, and the female tours were able to be completed (to me) with reasonable hurdles.
    • I like the continued 100k for each new win on faction feuds, and should remain as a staple going forward.
    • The backstage pass freebie came back, and it was a very good one. Keep this up.
    • Thank you for including the "complete a feud brawl" for points towards the contest. If feud scores aren't going to be factored into the contest, something pertaining the feud should be. I would leave it open ended personally, but this was extremely welcome.

    The Bad

    • After nearly what... 30+ bags and chests all I got were nothing but shards yet again, and the same people whom I've seen pull Macho, Edge, etc before were somehow magically able to get Rhea. I know it's RNG, but it's becoming disheartening that I max week after week and grind and grind and do pulls and yet I get a little under or a little over half of the chase character while the same people are getting these characters for free with minimal work and then maxing it without spending because they get 1 million points for doing nothing for free.
    • After seeing my fellow faction mates, people on Discord, Twitter, Facebook, and other means showing that 25mil got them nothing but the min shards for Macho and Shayna that demotivated me from wanting to hit the top goal. Instead of grinding out more wins, I just toned it down and didn't play as aggressively as I would've otherwise.
    • The weekend backstage pass deal for $9.99 for 1 coin, 10,000 points, and 10x shards is extremely poor value for the money especially when the backstage silver special gives 3 pulls and many more items.
    • The score gaps between the final milestones and the ones that can be achieved for free or very minimal spending, and the cost needed to reach those milestones vs. the rewards was very poor. For instance, milestone 15 to 16 requires 400 pulls (let's take out the bonus points in certain packs out of the equation). 400 pulls / 40 pulls at $100 each = $1000 + tax. It is not worth 5 mil coins, an emerald token, 3 diamond tokens, 35 Zombie Lashley, a legendary female belt, and vipers strike plate.
    • A community event included on every kind of these feuds would be nice.

    Loot really wasnt any good at all. Most bags were crap. Milestones were super exaggerated. Really not a good event.

  • kingnerd

    Overall a decent event. Once more rewards are not worth the serious grind and financial cost.

    Pulls not worth spending money on as there are too many free to get wrestlers in the premium pulls and nowhere near enough premium wrestlers. This just reinforces my lack of wanting to try.

  • This event was better than the previous event, especially on the solo side of things. The CSS were a little hard to get, but they are only a boost so that's fine. Having a big but doable target to grind (if you enjoy grinding) was fine, and the reward was quite enticing at 25m. Hopefully this becomes a more recurring thing. Good job on keeping the set shards + chance to pull. I think it's a great system.


    Faction wise though you guys totally missed the mark on scoring. Also, the talent up values were even worse than the awful ones we had last week. Take that away from faction scoring, back to the solo event and have it give actual progression towards the event if you're willing to blow resources to attempt to score.

  • The event is good but completing the contest does not guarantee you get the character you are trying to get and trying to get it through loot is the same or even more difficult.

    Pros 

    The tours were fine and gave everyone a chance with common css’s. 

    The feud war score comp was manageable and easy to max. 

    Decent feud requirements 

    Cons

    Where to start…..

    Substandard chase card which wasn’t worth putting any money into the event - guess that’s a plus to be honest. The loot pulls I saw as a whole were generally trash. 

    Warscore rewards for reaching the final milestone were a joke as were the leaderboard rewards

    Faction contest again has bombed with one faction looking like maxing. Maybe you should ask the yourselves why is this the case? 

    On the whole another weekend solo and faction contests which are as dull and stale as the game as a whole is becoming - zombie month is generally popular and enjoyable, sadly this is ranking as the worst zombie mlc you’ve done.

  • Ok the good side, the mp perks are reasonable again.

    The tours for the most part are very repetitive.

    I know for a fact your company would make the same amount of money or more if you let us grind these characters at a lower rarity and we grind plus flood the market place with microtransactions to build them up to 5gold.


    I love the advancements with the Women's toons but their Feuds are not fun. They need to be confined to Sunday morning flash. Only two of them have the speed to power through the endless grind.

    I liked the event overall; I wish there was a bit more of a random factor in the bags that we opened for the number of shards. When it's something like only "25 shards or a 2sb" or a "4sg or 75 shards", it makes me feel less motivated to try because I can do the math and realize that I'm not going to hit 1600 shards if there's only a couple hundred on the tours...


    Sometimes it's hard to remember which women have HP Steal moves or make Blast gems because we use them so infrequently vs the men, but I was mainly just trying to get the points from the contest superstars at first, but it'd be nice if there was an easier way to filter based on who was getting bonuses in certain lanes...


    Disappointing to not have a community event go along with the weekend event, because I like getting the additional free items and feeling like I'm contributing by getting bags.



    Character has a cool name and cool look, so that's fun.

  • Again another character ill never get the event was fine wish u make milestones more achievable so more players could max event and make pull odds better

    The event was very lack luster, Faction event was entirely too hard to max without spending a ton of $ for the rhea shards. The Solo event was okay at best. The tours only good thing was the emerald tokens out of them. I think the faction event needed to have 5 or 10 points per talent instead of 1 . The character wasnt worth the chase. It'd be nice if the feud warscore had it where you hit like 50 to 75mill points you get the card at 3sb.

  • I would say that this weekend Feud event was a good one as we were able to get a decent amount of milestones through Feud warscore and Tour.


    Tours

    The tours were pretty decent and that we were able to use zombies that we should mostly have but did not have leveled up too much which made it harder to do the tour but of course that is due to our lack of leveling them knowing they would be used at some point.  


    Feud

    I actually enjoyed the Feud that that we didn't have to use too many of the zombies over and over to get points and it was solely on grinding the feud. I enjoyed getting to a decent milestone on the Solo contest and I know that to max we are having to pay which is not an issue for those that are able to shell out money.

  • Overall the events was better then the last one. I just don’t understand the rewards system. I know the only way to get one of the newer characters is to spend a lot of money but the winnable loot is lacking significantly. If your gonna cram so much into a 3-4 day event, then put everything out front. Don’t release a new part of the tour every other day, just lay it out at once. The point is to gain shards and unlock them. Just put everything out so that is people can’t play game one day they don’t waste time trying to catch up.

  • I would love to win this superstar but the requirements are just to difficult for me. I Can't afford to purchase tokens for a chance at winning her. Kinda feel like I'm outside of the circle so to speak.

    Pros:

    Putting an emerald tokens back in the free milestone was nice.

    Getting our +1 back for MP perks was nice

    The chest at the end of the warscore was a nice add. 

    Cons:

    Increased warscore to 25M with a female feud that was again locked down to only 6 slots with 2 being locked to the weekend character and the other to a really horrible female card at 4 star was super limiting and made the increased warscore a horrible grind. Why do female feuds not allow the use of 9 characters like the men's feuds. Very bad time to put in an increase of 25% to the warscore when you decrease the available characters you can have in your lineup by 33% if you actually have everyone including the new character that was just released.

    The warscore stretch reward of the Macho and Shayna chest was a nice idea but in the end fell flat didn't seem like enough for the horrible grind. If one of the 2 cards would have been guaranteed and the other was shards that would have felt like a much better reward for the effort with the lineup being so restrictive.

    Guaranteed shards again with not enough available if you are not lucky with bags 

    Reducing the number of shard in the chests was not good there were already not enough to obtain the card and takes viable ways to contribute to the faction event away.

    Faction event only had Shards, Talent, HP, Heals, limited # of brawls as a point method. Paywalling faction points was not a good idea. 

    Limiting the number of brawls that counted for faction event was not a good idea but it was nice to see something actually feud related as a point method.

    The faction rewards were on the poor side for what was not paywalled.

    The "stretch" milestones to actually max the solo event was again way to far off $$$

    Perks having your gem generation knocked down with no way to combat that was not fun.

    After grinding to hit a decent warscore still nowhere near maxxing faction or solo and I'm in a top 5 team so very disappointing to be honest. Not even close on shards just seems to be about who can spend the most money where has the grind factor gone.

  • TheNextAD

    Can't really say that anything has improved since last time...


    WARSCORE EVENT: increased from 20 to 25 million pts, but last milestone prizes were a complete joke, the odds of getting a poster were too low, no doubt about it. Also, Warscore event should AS SOON AS the feud ends.


    FACTION EVENT: scoring methods were ok, but the amount of points in order to max the event was a mockery and the rewards were utter garbage


    SOLO EVENT: as usual, some prizes exclusive to the premium part of the event should be in the free part...not saying that I want everything for free, of course.


    TOURS: the "OK" part, as usual, balanced choices

  • tam_2k_uk

    Felt the fued could've been less restricted, feel the rewards for the pulls could he better odds with a better chance of getting decent pulls and not the same shards all the time.

    For me the event in general was pretty average. One thing I'll give big props for off the start is the blog post explaining the event though. It's great that you guys broke down what people can get for free without spending from the solo event. Great work, more of this would be great going forward!


    Tours were good, CSS bonuses were attainable to most players which is always good.


    War Score contest was nice and I liked that the bonus character matches counted towards this. It made it so maxing it didnt feel like as much of a grind for me that doesnt have an insane roster size. Rewards were also nice for that too.


    Faction contest wasnt great and relatively hard to max but this is due to War Score not being a factor in that which is (fine, I tguess) assuming we couldnt have it so that War Score double dips in both the Solo and faction events. I'd assume most players would prefer those points to go toward the solo if given the chance. tl;dr is I'd like more choices for players to score in this part going forward.


    As for the actual Feud event itself - big fan of the 100K bonuses for individual win , this was nice and should be continued going forward. The line bonuses for the event werent great and didnt benefit many characters except for a couple only which forced me to use the same character over and over again when facing the top factions across from me. I also wasnt a fan of how the gem generation from perks made it so that you could get nerfed but couldnt use your offensive perks to combat this. Perks are supposed to be just that - perks. I should be able to get myself back to an even playing field if I have my perks maxed, worst case scenario.

  • Good contest. My only gripe with all of these contests is that you have to spend a bunch of money to even be relevant or stand a chance at getting these characters. Even in a good faction, shards are hard to come by unless you buy them, have the bonus characters or are super lucky in the grab bags. Granted I know it's a part of the business model but I think it would be a lot more enjoyable for a lot more people if the grinders were able to obtain these special characters without spending hundreds of dollars.

    I would very much like to have her, the event depends too much on money
