RKBRO-DOWN CONTEST FEEDBACK + GIVEAWAY

Has the look of a failed event from the onset. How absurd is it that the weekend event doesn't even have any MLC solo points and No KO shards, RIP tps and coins.. we will be missed😔😔

You know that everyone saying, this event failed from the on set because this is last week to earn mlc solo points and faction points and KO shades. and also tps and coins.. we will be missed resources for next month long events😔😔

I'm gonna give honest feedback here and not sound too whiney because that accomplishes nothing and to preface, I'm okay with the faction event being spend, they're fine occasionally

However, 10,000 pulls between everyone in the faction is in mine and everyone else's opinion, an unreasonable number that is going to be difficult for people to achieve.

To put this in perspective, you're asking for people to put down 300 bucks (roughly) for 1%

My suggestion is simple, keep the event as a spend event but increase the points given by a factor of 5 or 10

This would provide a far more reasonable price-point for factions to complete, especially as a lot of the available shards this week hinge on it

Before the event even starts, the staggering amount of paid pulls needed for the faction to max is very tone deaf.

I see that faction and mlc points were added to satiate the playerbase, that's great! However the fact that the faction contest still only gives 1000 per loot coin and 10m max is disheartening to say the least

I can't wait until I get Randy Orton that I can used him and I like the contest and that faction . SO I love it.

Event after event all these are spending money.....

I'd like to give feedback, but I can't even do boss battles. When the match is about to start, I get a message box telling me I've been kicked from the lobby due to my connection timing out. Everything else works like normal except for boss battles.

I liked the contest and faction boss although I think a 4sg recruit would've been more suitable. 3000 shards is a long shot.

Also maybe consider giving incentive to help your faction mates finish the lower boss levels if you've already done them. As it is right now you get nothing for doing lower levels again which vastly reduces the incentive to help your faction mates which are stuck on lower levels.

I love everything about this game, this contest was just like all the others, epic.

For me it’s buggy as hell. Just went through two battles unable to use my moves which sucks when you can make a line of green. Half the time I get the no connection error.

Edit

Adding to this I tried the web portal on my computer to see if it was any better and I can't even join a battle from their. I'm able to maybe complete 1 out of 4/5 battles due to lag and freezing on the phone. Its taken the entire weekend to get 9 winning battles in. I'll probably skip the event in the future

1. Contest itself - seems like there's opportunity to progress pretty easily in the solo mode. Spending always plays a factor, but that's expected since its your biggest revenue driver. That being said, I do not like that the faction contest is strictly "if your faction spends the most, you win." Spending will always be a variable in the contests, but it shouldn't be the only variable.
2. Boss Breaker - I like that new game modes are being tried. I think most would agree that same outline for MLCs (Showdown/Feud/Showdown/Flash Feud) can get pretty boring after awhile, so it is nice to have some different for a change. However, Boss Breaker is still incredibly buggy. When it was working smoothly it was pretty fun, but it felt like almost every session I played had myself or one of my teammates having some sort of issue. Issues that came up:
   1. Joining a lobby, but the not loading in once the session starts.
   2. Frequent lag that sometimes affected outcomes of sessions. Worst instance was the boss taking its turn, and then being stuck on the boss turn, not being able to continue.
3. A challenge of boss breaker, but not necessarily a bad one, is it requires way more communication among your faction compared to the other weekend game modes. I experienced a lot of my faction members trying to brute force the boss on Turn 1. That's fine for the lower levels, but once the shield for the boss goes up Turn 2, their character ends up being useless because they pick their strongest person and had no regard for their shield. This mode definitely will require more prep before the event actually starts. Even with prep, is the shield threshold a bit extreme? Maybe, honestly I would like to play it more before deciding, but I know others have voiced their concerns about bottle-necking your roster when the shield requires a lot of gems to be broken.

Overall I think Boss Breaker has potential, but all the bugs and problems with lag and connection need to get worked out ASAP, otherwise I think most people will want to just skip out due to frustration.

Overall the faction boss game mode has potential to be a fun addition to the game. I liked that in order to get solo points for the contest I wasn't tied to the game all weekend as other game modes have me in order to compete at a higher level.

As another person said there needs to be better rewards to go back and do lower levels. Also, for free accounts and lower league accounts that might not have the rosters as some higher leagues or pay to play players, there should be maybe a 2nd weakness. Having only one weakness for each boss locks players that have lower rosters out of participating effectively when they might want to whether or not they have played for a longer time and just have had bad luck at getting a higher roster.

Feedback for Randy Orton RKBro Faction Boss Event

Positives

• The solo event was great only if you had the required characters such as a strong Randy and Riddle.
• 4 nodes for the solo tour is a good amount so keeping them to 3 or 4 is the way to go in my opinion.
• Was able to get all the milestones before Bonus without having to spend much at all.
• Releasing a $5USD Faction Boss promoter was a good call and a lot of us were more than willing to spend for this. Thank you for this offer along with a rare Mr T for $20.

Negatives

• Are you kidding? $300 for every individual to max the faction event. Was an easy pass for me and all our faction mates. Why not reduce this and start small? You get to test the water and see what's that like so you can stay in the fine line of balance of an acceptable amount of spend. The vault tech cena event was probably a good example of this.
• A new Randy is nice but again another Showboat when you still don't have an Acro or Trickster Randy. Felt like this Randy could have been delayed for a little later in the year.
• Requirement for Hell needing Tech Brock sucks considering how rare he is. I'm just glad there were no solo contest points locked behind him.
• Flash market went back to the previous version this weekend. Should have continued keeping it similar to the previous ones we've had last weekend and during mid-week.

Suggestions to improve Faction Boss and others

• Playing Faction Boss the second time seems like a slightly better experience knowing how the gameplay works however still feels quite restrictive in terms of having to use a certain superstar with Green Submission Moves that could put out the most damage. I think the mode could have been less restrictive and allow people to play ease so it's not off-putting. I understand this is where people need to co-ordinate with each other in order to beat the boss but again it's a new mode and people aren't very familiar with the gameplay so making it less restrictive would have been better like instead of green submissions make it all submissions and remove that red mp move that destroys your character because this means I cannot use anyone with red MP moves or I get demolished due to Brock's move.
• The game mode is still very laggy and not smooth at all. I can't seem to play a single game where I see a full 4 team play as there's always one person who disconnnects and we're down to just 3 people taking on a Level 9 or 10 boss.
• When fued started out it was 5v5 and after reducing it to 2v2 it was a lot better. Faction boss is bringing up the need again to have 4 people to try and take down a boss. The issues with needing 3 or 4 is having to wait for people and the fact that we're all on different timezones just means there isn't many active faction mates on when we want to play.
• What about the idea of allowing multiple factions to ally themselves for Faction Fued. Our faction has multiple sister factions so if we could be a faction of 300-400 people, we'd probably enjoy this better considering some factions are stronger and lower factions could rely on the assistance of bigger factions to help out.
• Personally I enjoyed the new mode and could get used to it. It doesn't feel grindy like Showdown or Fued and I can just do what I can or need to and have a relaxed weekend.
• It's annoying when you're at the end of the timer and you perform a move where animation takes time and results in not carrying out the move. I think you should allow the move to be finished rather than just have us waste the move or instead not eat our MP should this go overtime.
• Have you ever thought about releasing a poll and asking the community who or which character they'd like to see released next or better you come up with few options and let the community vote on it? This way you engage the community and give them someone who they look forward to seeing in-game. May be once a month to see how that works out?
