    What made Scopley think it was a good idea to require Montez for the scout mission when a good portion of the player base has neither one? I'd understand if they at least gave out a free version

    Something has to be done about these boss battles. I cannot fathom at this point and as long as you guys have been running this why there is constantly connection issues and slowdowns with boss battle. The constant freezing and kicking people out is to much. When are you guys going to fix this? This is the absolute worst part of boss battle. If you can't fix it stop running boss battles.

  • Agree with Kevin, Boss Battle issues have been known for months and it gets worse. This Boss Battle along with the consistent connection issues, the animations of the moves are noticeably slower = lower number of moves in 60 sec. Technically the shields and others are not as stringent, but the longer moves neutralizes it.

    As for the tours, not bad but using rare characters for the bonuses outside of a weak Valentine takes out the fun for most, although the $5 Valentine 5sg was ok and helped clear the Day 1 tour w/ bonuses

    I'm sure it wasn't intentional as Scopely rarely do things to benefit players but the Web coin flash market for valentines was brilliant. I was actually able to recruit three new characters by buying shards. More of this please (although I have no Web coins left)

    I don't normally do write-ups for midweek events because they're usually real simple and there's not a ton to say about them, but I continued to have multiple instances where the game would just give up and softlock for entire turns. I've had multiple instances of groups not wanting to cooperate whatsoever and needing its owner to leave and reenter to have someone else go ahead with it. The level select screen is still unusably unresponsive. I'll say it once more in a very short post: This game mode is not ready to be the main attraction for any event, weekend or otherwise.

  • It was a decent event. It was nice that the level 12s weren't overly difficult. Trying to max the event is difficult if you're not in a top faction of people with all of the elite superstars.

    PLEASE RETIRE BOSS BATTLES!!! It is the most broken, worthless, pain in the ass, PoS mode created!

    Matches drag on (especially with one or more person disconnects then you might as well just quit), bosses have WAY too much health, their abilities are overpowered, you need to swipe gems and abilities that create gems that get broken don’t get counted, you get absolutely JACK for trying and failing

    For those who love these battles either have the right superstars to one turn them… or seriously need to be checked in a psyche ward!

    The lag is absolutely the worst thing about the battles. There are times where it deliberates feels like it gets laggy right when you are about to do a move. Like its designed to slow you down.

    There was legitimately only 3 superstars that could really do anything in this battle. One is extremely rare, 1 is somewhat rare and the other is Kevin Owens. Another one where neutralizer isnt allowed. Clearly you screwed the pooch on that one.


    Also the animations are just TERRIBLE. Its already slow for the users, but to watch the Boss go through 2 or more moves, its just a DRAG. Just hit the damage and be done. Stop dragging it out.


    Using Montez as a scout and not just the street profits is terrible. Both Montez are incredibly hard to get and that just screwed over every F2P player. Why is it so hard to see how far you are exactly from the next tier? Gimme a number! That way if we can maybe level our guys to hit the next one we know exactly how much to do.

    There is so much more that can be said, but these are the biggest.

    my issue with the event is that the faction boss ended the same time as the faction boss solo event. the boss coins I recieved for faction leaderboard rewards would have maxed the boss battle solo event which in turn would have maxed the other solo event. by 2 of the 3 events ending at the same time the faction leaderboard rewards did NOT count towards the solo boss event and now I won’t/can’t max either one. this needs to be addressed and fixed. in no way should an event that gives points towards another event end at the same time.

    Improvements

    Putting a paid or chase character as the scout I think needs to be re thought. Even in a higher top 30 faction not everyone had the scout. For sure to echo others, Scouts should be common characters or free characters. Would rather see a higher level needed, so example, for everyone to have a Tier C at 5 star Bronze average to max, instead of a chase or paid. If you want players to feel the pain, feel at least with that, everyone can still contribute.

    The lag and freezing needs to be addresses or the timer needs to be extended. Every boss battle I end up and others I know do as well, end up losing a full cycle of moves due to the lag and in this case, dropping reinforce gems, and then being harmed by them as the game froze and I am unable to now have the time I should have. Example at 47 seconds with zlashey, I drop my reinforce, but then game freezes and by the time I can make another move I have 7 seconds left and can't clear them, so what should have allowed more than enough time now harms and creates a bad situation. Some form of remedy needs to be made for the lag, especially when the risk of moves creates a danger, but is worth the risk to use, knowing you have time.

    having an event start and being kicked and not able to join, this has happened a lot to me, for sure needs to address this.

    The game not allowing me to play and then harming my faction mates from full points is an unforced error and needs to be resolved. Players should not be harmed due to a game error.

    Cons

    Mainly the chase character as scout

    Some of the same Boss battle erros, lags, kick outs, disconnects, etc etc

    Still need a way to transfer Boss Breakers from Card to Card, or a way to cash out Cards BB not used for coins to purchase on a new Card that is needed. This still needs to be addressed and sort out instead of needing to spend to buy coins to get a high level BB on each card, only to use it once or twice, this model needs to be brainstormed and fixed for players so we can feel we aren't being ripped off for a single event and need to spend a ton of a card only to use once or twice.

    Pros

    Loved the level 12, faction was able to help everyone clear the lvl 12's not relying on higher players.

    Love how BB contributed and helped! Loved how you had to not one turn, but play it out, but with a good mix of players lvl 12 was doable even if 3/4 turns to complete, I enjoy the levels and playing. So this was a big improvement! Keep this going!

    Liked even at lvl 17, didn't need 2/3 paid cards, but 1 solid card could carry 3! Good bonus, of course needed BB and people to clear the shield, but forcing people to work together and not relying on multiple paid cards was nice. Keep this!

    Tours

    Liked the ours and mix up with them. Would have been nice to see M/F then F/M then mix the M/F F/M in the hell mode. So instead of relying on the males, mixing it up to use the females. So would be nice to see on these mixed tours, a F/M mixed up in the events.

    Wasn't able to max due to not having all the cards, but got close. Rewards were good!

    Overall for a mid week event, not terrible, not great

    Boss Battle is still a work in progress, I did enjoy this one! Loved that I could help at lvl 12 and lvl 17 without specific cards, but felt i was contributing which I enjoyed!

    Hopefully the lags and freezes etc can get figured out.

    Do like how Boss Battle is getting better, more use of Breakers which I like, and the cards at lvl 12 so the team can help was a big win!

    The tag team matches tour was fun. Last tour that was that fun was the HOF one that required classes.

    Or they can just play the game and think of unconventional ways to play champs and make full use of the bonus abilities. But feel free to rage over this game mode just cause u can’t think out of the box

    This was a great boss battle! I loved that there was a wide variety of characters that could be used in battle (any multiplier characters and any yellow gem characters). Great for boss store currency, and the fights were fun if we came in with a well-coordinated team. The tours were a bit restrictive and the rewards weren't great for them, so I ended up skipping the last tour, which is something that I've really never done before! Thanks for this event... keep it up!

    Already there is no desire to even paint, nothing changes, even worse:

    1) One of the rarest and most donated characters in scout mission.

    2) Lack of opportunity to get any costume from the list if you don't donate to this game for 2-3 years.

    3) Disgustingly laggy boss.

    4) Disgusting weak issued characters.

    Guys, maybe it's enough to disfigure the game? Of course, I understand that I want money, but do not force people to buy events in plain text. Well, or immediately make price tags, for example, half the event 20 bucks the entire event 100 so as not to torment people with your miserable bugs and idiotic decisions.

    Although it is not clear why I am writing all this at all, no one reads it anyway and will not read it based on the fact that each event has the same problems. Oh yes, the best thing that happened in this event is your cant with the market) It helped a lot of people, so thank you for that.

    This should not count as a review of the event, but please please please let the final faction boss scores linger for some time, before they are removed from our view.

    Factions like doing internal top 5s and top 10s for bragging rights, but the second the event is over, all traces of the faction top 100 is removed.

    In Feuds, we can see the final scores for days after completion.
