  • Key loots are a bunch of loaded craps, where you may get a relatively recent character once in a year, perhaps!

    Showdown rewards are no more appealing! You can get almost all the coins, with no milestone containing a chance to get a new superstar! I can recall one sd event, where we had to win 150 matches to get a guaranteed superstar (not shard) loot! Many of us benefitted from it, literally!

    Every week new character gets released with damning power, yet the free loots are filled with old players having little to no impact on the current giants! And the odds of getting better characters is next to 0!

    MLCs are getting difficult for many to even get half done! Many a times it has happened that contest superstars set aren't available to all and not everyone has access to loads of ig coins & tps to build them, only to see new characters getting released & building the ones required for tour bonuses becomes irrelevant!

    I agree with what has been told already! The new modes are not for everyone, only the selected few can reap rewards from em!

    Never a user of subscriptions, won't be ever! Unless something is done about it

  • Please bring back the days where the key loot gave you shards for the free monthly character. Also with the requirements of kickoff talent up being so massive it would be nice if the rewards matched the effort it takes to max. There used to be a time that there was a 3sb of the free character when you maxed the TU. Sure that would take away from the money you make selling the 3sb but for crying out loud does EVERY THING have to have a price tag attached to it?

    Another option that I feel should be considered is give the constant new characters a rest. We don't need 5 new characters a month. Not to mention currently we could use a break on a new character every month. It would be nice to have an event/events that's surrounded around resources and TU so we have a legitimate opportunity to improve what we have. The game used to have so many intriguing events when we used to have take the urn, or the original 8 events. It would be nice to see fresh ideas or a revamp of some of the older ideas that made us come back daily.

    Sadly I have vowed that if significant changes haven't been made by Wrestlemania and continue the WM event will be my last and after nearly 5 years I'm ok with just walking away cold turkey. I couldn't agree more with this game becoming a chore and survival to maintain a faction spot. Finally it was great when you guys loaded us up with resources, and then that was killed by the daily/weekly coin or TP events requiring massive amounts of either to max quickly chewing away at the resources in meaningless weekly or daily events. We're also not even allowed to enjoy our previous new character because once the MLC is over that person becomes an after thought and it's on to the next chase.

    I get you want to make money but it’s getting beyond a joke.

    we don’t want new (alternative versions) every week.

    we don’t want to have to spend our whole wages to reach milestones.

    im vip12 which equates to a car at least.

  • State of the game right now is more becoming pay to play then it ever has been before and the events, characters, etc are so repetitive it’s making me and a lot of people lose interest in the game to get back people into the game is those two new tournaments is a decent start but scale back some others so people actually have a chance to get those super rare characters instead of making people spend hundreds even thousands of dollars to get shards of characters every one has, so just take in consideration scaling back some of this stuff would make the game fun again to grind and actually come out with a new character and not just shards

  • VIP should be a totally different thing. The fact that DX Shawn, DX HHH and King of Kings is locked behind a membership is kind of ridiculous. Especially when nothing truly got updated, DX Vault aside. We definitely need something better. Also, slowing down on characters isn't a bad idea, especially when you have ones you can't even acquire anymore, leaving us several tokens off. Also agree that we need inventory clean up and the option to flip gear tokens into gear that may be harder to obtain normally

    I enjoy this game and I've played for a while but it seems just when it starts to go in the right direction it takes a sharp left to worse than it was

    There are so many characters released monthly and so many different requirements that if you don't spend an insane amount then you aren't competing and in some cases you aren't even playing

    Maybe go back and revamp some irrelevant characters and reskin them so newer players can even acquire them. For instance no one will ever use the Dudleys, they won't be a requirement and they just sit there

    Also you just started to let people be able to replenish all the resources we need every month to be competitive then you raise the currency price. Sunday coin event went to 32m coins...we used to not spend that in a week. These are the types of things that frustrate people. If it were only that players would probably look over it but with the money and the resource costs and the time required and all these things that you keep adding to that is making people upset.

    I know you're a for profit business and there's nothing wrong with that but I think you forget that this is played as an escape for people to have fun and lately the reward just isn't there.

    Bring back faction spend diamond loot to win a new gear events!

    I've been saving my diamonds for 2 years and I'm ready to spend them!

    Also how about invasion 2.0!!

  • It would be nice if was like old times rng is absolutely horrible..


    What I would change is allow an event chase character to be given even if just at 2*. Also have a pity timer like if after 10 key/ loot pulls you get a guaranteed 4*+ drop that is very rare +

  • All I want to do is make WWE champions a greater place all the points above me are all true way too many new characters,rebuff the blitz rewards for blitz,put more rewards in solo rewards but easily like put in some TP and coins in those solo, the game has been fun but it turn from listening to the free to play players to be for pay to play players only I get that you give free mlc characters but for the love of God please please listen to the more free casual player that is all been trying to ask it hasn't always been fair to us free players but you have to remember you wouldn't be where you are if it wasn't for us we are the ones that help you grow the way you are. I'm always confused on the silver hangers on to get new gears.

  • I agree with everything Sissa said in the first comment not because if I don’t stabby bear 🐻 will get me but because the lady talks sense rather then doing wrestling moves on my brother every day we both load the game up and forget about the real world for a few hours which is great but no so great when unless you spend real money for example at beginning of each month long event you need to do 360 normal blitz matches to reach your 1% king of kings tour was good about 25 years ago now you get more coin from logging in every 24 hours then you do off the 42 matches on that tour try something new like for every 500 matches someone does on the game they get to choose 1 shard even of a character they need I no you guys at scopely will be mortified reading something like that but at least it would be something have a Ecw month on the game surely it’s not just RVD Bam Bam Dudleys and Cactus you guys can only have on the game ? Shard wall bring that back even just 4 times a year every 3 month give people hope they might get the remaining shards of Otis or get the chance to get a few heavy hitters in there roster like Neville and Ryback we are nearly in The year 2022 and Rick Rude Shards and Harlem heat Booker shards just arnt cutting it anymore I assume most could take them both 10 star gold if possible 😂 add medals and straps to the wall every month too like you guys have done with the skill plates that would be a great addition now I’m not asking for much here but hopefully my message works it’s way to the CEO of your company the vinny mac of scopely and you guys go Wow this man talks sense 😀🙌🏻

  • In addition to much of the feedback above that I wholeheartedly agree with, I’d like to reiterate a few points made that when put together could solve for some of the game’s gaps today.


    1. Bring back the shard wall. This was my favorite feature of the game when it existed. It enabled f2p’ers to obtain characters otherwise out of reach or behind pay walls. Spending should accelerate a player’s progress in the game - on the other hand, making spending necessary to obtain certain characters alienates a large percentage of the player base
    2. Flip side, although I am not a spender, I can sympathize with those who are - who are discouraged by the fact that perks can so dramatically alter character’s abilities. Perks neutralize coveted top-tier superstars worth. I think the perks system needs to be revamped entirely. Feud and SD suffer badly from the current perks’ system
    3. New and different game modes - some comments above that I love - steel cage tag team matches, maybe a refreshed version of invasion, alternative SD modes (the recent mid-week event was a nice add.)

    Lastly, please please please eliminate belts from pulls that do not fit any current character. Belts require a lot of in-game currency to acquire and it’s extremely disappointing to pull a belt that is unusable.


    Thank you for making a game that I’ve enjoyed playing for the past (gasp) almost five years. There’s always ways to refresh and innovate - I hope you’ll consider taking action on some of this feedback.

    On a final positive note, I love the “pick a plate” reward that was introduced this month. Would love to see that continue in the game and to be expanded to include some of the rarer plates.

    Best,

  • There are many great comments on this post already. I hope that the developers are able to see that the community cares about this game and wants to see it succeed.

    Please continue to work on the known issues and understand that when members put in support tickets they have time and or money invested in this game. The community is the biggest sales team you have to get people involved and playing.

    I'm not going to try to add anything here, I can't think of a complaint that I have that hasn't been addressed multiplem times.


    I just wanted to hop in to ask that y'all actually use this thread and the requests and advice given by the players to make some changes that we, the players, have actually asked for and not some random new mode that no one wants.


    Thank you

  • Here’s my input coming from a person that has Matt Hardy and it doesn’t matter one way or another to me but I have friends that don’t have Matt. Matt Hardy showboat needs to be reskinned so that the people that don’t have him can get the trainer ability without it nearly every acro in the game sucks for them besides snoop ztaker and ford. It needs to be a reskin because if there’s a new character that gets released with it the people without Matt still get shafted because people with both can put both on a character like hbk shawn and now the new norm for acros is that so it defeats the purpose please think about this.

    There have been many changes and improvements to the game over the years. Some significantly better and some that haven’t worked. Please revamp the team modes of the game so that it is more enjoyable. What point does it make to have a faction of 100, if the top 15-25 players are the true difference makers? This is disappointing. The current rewards systems and superstar restrictions heavily incentivize solo play and spending to win rather than spending for value or roster enhancement. This alienates the team play aspect and erodes the fun of the game.

    Areas I’d like to see improvement in the most are

    Faction Feuds:

    Likes - PVP mode

    Dislikes - Same faction reward layout for the last 2 years, restricting superstar lineups

    Wish - Unrestricted feud lineup that allows players to choose who they want. Give better bonuses for using contest superstars/new released player in feud lineup. Update feud rewards and bonuses for faction based  gameplay

    Feuds is a mode that has rapidly declined for years. It’s the most PVP mode in the game and used to be my favorite due to the faction teamwork and thrill of getting the most out of my collected superstars.

    The superstar restrictions are too heavy. At this point in the game there are enough perks, belts, etc for players to decide on their teams and make them viable.

    Also, while the individual reward system has improved, the faction reward is lacking. The 1st - 3rd place reward bonuses are severely outdated and should be updated with something that reflects today’s gameplay. Perhaps even work in faction bonuses through the top 10 factions. Incentivize us to work together and take some pride in this mode again as a team rather than just individual glory.


    Showdown:

    Likes - Incentives to use other superstars via contest superstar bonus

    Dislikes - Faction based rewards have been heavily reduced for this mode or are based on mostly on a faction’s spending.

    Wish - A better reward system faction wide was in place here. Bring back team play in this as it’s also a PVP mode


    Bugs:

    I understand that it’s software and things will always happen. What should not happen is the customer base being left hanging on weekends with no word from support that acknowledges or says that you are looking into what’s going on. The weekends are the largest driver in the game. Having support personnel on standby to acknowledge issues is a simple appeasement while we wait the fixes. Please fix this

    And due to the very large number of bugs/crashes that do occur on the weekends while fixes are not available, I think it would be fair to issue health kits ahead of the event or increase the heal rate for superstars during weekend tournaments. At least until things are stable. Support has been good at honoring requests for health returns promptly. However during a tournament I feel we should be only writing support for something new not an ongoing bug


    For me the grinding, spending, analyzing in-game inventory is paid off in the player vs player modes. Improving these and bringing back the team play aspect would go a long way in improving my experience with the game

    Whenever there is a criticism of Scopely and its operations, I see a lot of apologists coming out of woodwork defending that it is a business and that it, at the end of the day needs to make money. No one is disputing that. The ones with scruples however, do that by giving its players a choice. Grind hard and complete tasks to get the rewards or pay a sum for a shortcut and make your lives easier. Scopely does not. To complete an event, even the weekend ones, you effectively need to sum out money. And if you go by recent trends, that amount needs to be in hundreds. And even when they are pretending to cater to the people who don't want to pay, it involves bulking up your roster by hundreds of thousands in talent up which indirectly need you to purchase resources. (Not everyone sits on a top 5 faction like some of the defenders to see a windfall of resources. And while the resources have improved across the board it does not mean that it has made completing daily events any easier). Can't pay, sorry, you are no longer competing, sit by the sidelines, do your thing and take whatever scraps are thrown. What's more insulting even with such blatant handicap when it comes to the event milestones, they double down on adding insult to injury by still asking you to do 100-150 matches just to get the paltry milestones. So the grinders get all of the effort and absolutely none of the payoff. If you are a grinder, your effort, your time, your commitment means s**t to them. To some of the people gushing about some of the recent improvements, granted they are much needed they are still boiler plate and have been more than counter balanced by the increased resource requirements for various events. And it took them 4 (FOUR) years to come up with it. So please excuse me when I don't pat their backs and hand them cookies for that. To the same people showing that as a proof of them listening, that's hilarious. You come across as naive at best. Again, it took them 4 years to come up with one genuinely good thing. When was the last time an event that was accepted as a good one on a general consensus was repeated? Surely, if they were listening, we'd get more of THOSE. No, instead we get to vote on our favorite out of the 16 biggest overspenders on this game and hope they win so that we can get some pittance out of it.


    Edited to add:


    At least some of the comments above mentioned about how much easier it is for the newer players. I'm sorry, but no. You might be comparing to a time when you had to deal with 1 star and 2 star characters and feel new players getting a 3-4 star is great for them, but they are playing in a different meta needing resources different from what you did back then. So, while a daily coin reward of 1.5 million looks great when you remind yourself of your early days, you needed 50-100k coins to max your stars and be competitive ; while the new players need 9-15 million. And they need to spread it around different trainers and coaches to even get to a level playing field while you had the leisure of getting them up at your own pace as and when they were released and acquired. Yet, they do not get the advantage of some of the trainers since Scopely decided to screw the newer players over by taking them out of rotation and doing absolutely nothing to remedy that. Best example, Sin Cara and Showboat Matt Hardy. Almost every half decent acrobat needs it. Yet they are no longer available and haven't been over a year. Go ahead and tell a newer player how much easier he has it while you have the same characters he has but can do thrice as better because of trainers and coaches he can no longer acquire. There are other niche trainers that have no alternative/poor alternative/behind the paywall of a new mega. Even if the new player acquires these work around, the older players can still stack the abilities with their existing options. The only advantage they genuinely get is to skip over some of the roster choices you made and chase alongside you, the newer characters, each of which is way more overpowered than the last rendering the older characters useless. But then you're still getting and spending the same resources in the present and you have an advantage with the choice of your entourage and the state of their development. So once again, what advantage? I'd request you to drop your rose tinted glasses of nostalgia and check your privilege.

  • This is general topic to start out update upon update I understand that the game needs to be more fun and exciting yes but I also understand after playing for almost 7 years that when you have reported issues and bugs like the ton of red rings and crashes when doing Feuds fix those first ever since I started playing back in 2014 this game has that red ring and when your character is in the middle of a match you know that it will either crash or time out that’s not fun that’s annoying happens a couple times a week during Stipulated matches as well so for the idea of bringing new content yes bring it but before you do absolutely fix the old problems first I understand that companies need to make money but your making a crap ton off of a buggy game if you want happy players that will try to spend so we all have a better experience mix it up some on the MLC as well game is getting stale with the same old stuff in faction contests would be fun and very helpful for the whole group
