The Olympic Fame

Holy cow he's gonna be a beast. Can't wait to recruit him. Hope it doesn't take forever.

Here we go again with the connection issues on boss battle. It is really sad that your programmers can not fix the constant connection issues with this mode. The fact that you guys have been doing this for a year and we are still having the same issues is just unacceptable.

*Edited for content

 Tours - Requirements felt reasonable. Not having to beat a 6s with Kurt was reasonable since many people haven’t worked him up past trainer ability cap.

Faction Boss - The trend of bosses that need to finished turn 1 is fine but getting tiresome. The requirements for CSS needing to be a certain rarity is not a good change.

Boss Faction - There are still some connection issues and lagging when fighting the boss and the game can freeze and eat your moves, when doing as much damage turn 1 is key.

Boss Solo - It was nice to have one regular event that could be maxed without spending if you had most of the CSS at the rarity needed. Shards of a recent character in the milestones was a nice touch as well. Some CSS were rare which is expected. 

Rewards -you have to spend the earned currency to get shards for the character or pick between resources. I typically use my event currency on resources to stay afloat and I don’t like buying shards unless it is a guaranteed recruit.

Suggestions - Take away the level boss requirements and allow people to use CSS at whatever rarity.

I mean, even if his feedback was a bit early, Bob mostly knocked this one of the park off the rip.

Out the gate, hearing that one of the CSS would be a character that more of us should have after your mistake that has yet to be rectified got a bad taste in my mouth early.

And wouldn't you know, the availability of those shards this weekend, even if you're willing to spend? Nonexistent!

Sure, 20k/win made bridging the gap a little easier, but it's all still the principle of it all. Maybe part of it was feeling burnout after a two week stretch of constant engagement with the game, but this just felt like an easy event to just completely pass on.

The faction event at the end of the day just a glorified spend event. Right off the heels of another big spend event? zzzz.

I also still think the changes to boss level requirements can do a lot more harm than good for some people/factions. I know some people in like sub-50 to 60 teams and to just have boss content you....can't access is rough. Sure, getting those first 6s characters can be a difficult process, but like this weekend, say you can cap out at level 17s across the board, and you don't have of the premium css, you'll still be a hair short of the milestone with a MILLION solo points, which is a pretty decent chunk. 

I understand some of the behaviour the rarity locks can prevent which I think is decent, but the lower end of things it's painful.

Prizewall was whatever, no harm in buying all the shard boxes because not really much of value there otherwise without spending big.

I dunno, all in all, just a forgettable weekend. Fresh off a stretch of too much to do in the game into an event that just gets to remind people of the last event y'all screwed up, it's just time to take a breather. Hopefully y'all figure stuff out soon because it's not just me for sure feeling totally apathetic about this game.

Im sorry guys but its gonna be hard yo try and save the event this time round, my experience of this one in particular is terrible.

Im gonna just dive straight in with the main points and that is the faction boss. This is probably the worst to date, other than last year when you had a boss that would recover health every turn. This can be broken down into various factors; Connection issues, Boss limitations, Overall experience.

We understand that being an event that requires servers so a team can hop into the battle is fair enough but at least have it where i dont disconnect and lose half of my turn after swiping or using a move due to freeze/connectivity problems, its so frustrating to have to face this almost every match because the servers clearly cant handle the player load which are participating. You either get kicked after a certain amount of time because the connection to the battle has dropped or you lose 30 seconds because your move/gem swipe is yet to acknowledge itself. 30 seconds with nothing happening can also lead to penalties such as not getting rewards for finishing the boss. The Boss limitations were atrocious, red and blue gems only things to bonus damage fair enough BUT trap and juggernaut gems are made redundant which means half the new characters you release that allow for these gems to be created through other means may aswell just be thrown out and put on the shelf for another boss battle. Also you had a Freeze every 3rd Turn paired with the rotating of the Blue and Red Shields which was annoying at least bring back the Neutralize for these shields i mean for god sakes its a boss breaker and everytime so far recently any boss with a shield you cant use it, you are making a key feature and perk of this mode invalid and useless. Id sooner have the tokens ive spent on that boss breaker refunded if this is how its gonna be in future.

Genuinley thought this time round it was gonna be a leech gem bonus with the 2/3 new superstars having purely leach builds almost. Its nice that you are at least including outdated characters with newer variants as bonus points e.g Gable/Kurt/shiek at lesst i was able to get these bonus points, i imagine alot more will be the same and only have these. HOF requirement should have been a lvl 15 at least as opposed to your lvl 20 requirement, same with bobby to be fair. Dont understand the reasoning for a HOF boss battle and having it as a top hrequirement for any 6* bobby to win at lvl 20 for the bonus points, seems like you plucked that one at random. Thr overall experience was just underwhelming, paired hand in hand with the limitations/shoddy bonuses/server connection issues it just made for a bad experience and overall after getting the bonuses i could, along with the help of my faction, it was more about completing the Lvl 9 bonuses than trying to achieve higher levels. Thats enough about my experience with that anyway, as an improvement and much needed feature that i believe the boss feuds need are private lobbies for your faction.

Ive probably said this before and ill say it again. With chat apps being used like Discord, our faction can clearly communicate if anybody needs help or if anybody needs a carry however can you please add locked lobbies or the ability to lock your lobby and set it to invite only. As some factions like the one im part of have discord as optional there are some which wont download it or use it which is their choice, but they dont get the idea that there might be a party of 4 testing new stratagies against the boss or trying to beat the boss at a higher level and will keep taking up these slots. It would just be a handy feature more than anything else to stop these 'boss feud snipers' trying to get as high as they can and not helping out with any other faction activities, it would also make it easier to only invite those who need the specific carry in.

Onto the tours, standard layout with a Challange tour which wasnt specifically locked to the new character, this was great, and also a few more tours were also included. We had the any Kurt angle as a bonus tour, the current free MLC champ Lex and then today Showstopper shawn or Striker austin. The Kurt tour was great as i felt that i wasnt having to waste alot of resources to get where i was and ended up finishing the whole thing with a 5sb IOW kurt which was great and got a Showstopper shawn from a chest which was a lucky addition considering the Striker tour. Lex tour was the usual addition, but as im not overly enjoying his gameplay i shall skip it, this brings me on to the striker tour. Having just got Showstopper from a chest and wanting to use him for the bonuses it occured to me it was gonna be a pain as you have Alpha academy Gable as the Boss Node. I almost did actually lose to the 3ss. Its a pain, it really is to say you almost had something perfect and then ruin it with a boss that is just too difficult and impossible to beat with the bonus characters unless you are willing to invest more into them.

Overall for the entire contest, the medallion wall was alright, not as good as some of the prize walls. But i picked up more 5sb Lashleys from the chests so i think ill take the hint and level him up, not. So it seems they were heaviky weighted around some champions more than others, didnt bother saving them as i knew having not had the bonus characters at higher talent to do more damage i wasnt going to get any medallions/medals that way. The milestone rewards have been better than what we had and im not sure about the faction contest rewards, even though there was a mistake and we got 200k points i still feel that there wasnt enough there to dignify or even say yeah great we completed the faction contest and we got this, was more like a "meh.. it coulda been better". Just hope you can take on bkard all of this guys and hopefully kick out an event where ALL the players can benefit from it and not have silly limitations or game breaking/freezing servers. As we have another faction boss event at the end of the month im really not looking forward to it based off this one.

El BOSS estaba lleno de Bugs, ya hace mucho tiempo es imposible conseguir los luchadores de evento a menos que sea comprado, y eso no es justo debería ser más alta la posibilidad de obtener cada peleador sin necesidad de gastar dinero, que sea más accesible obtenerlos @JC99

Overall the contest was great. Still had some bug connection issues with the Boss Battle. I am not really sure if there is much you can do to fix that. I would like for the tours to have the Boss tokens to level up Boss breakers. Maybe that can be an extra prize on the tours.

The rocky event was really fun. I even spent a lot of money on it. Though, my favourite wrestler is actually Kurt Angle. The solo matches were quite fun in the daily events. The boss breaker - not fun at all.

The problems with boss breaker.. 1001 bugs/issues and connection issues. There was a game where trying to match 3 in a row came up with 'no matches', and couldnt do a thing. Along with the occasional boot out, other people constantly disconnecting and really bad lag, kinda ruined the experience a bit. Also the boss health is way too high and couldnt beat more than level 13.

In regard to the Olympic Fame Event, I thought overall nature of the event was very fair and well done.

Coming off the heels of the Rocky Event, I enjoyed the fact the the HoF Kurt Angle character did not seem too difficult to obtain in the sense that he could be had for a minimal amount of spending. I thought there were ample opportunities for shards and it seemed like there were an increase in contest bags. I think having the required superstars and their shards in the contest bags is a huge plus - it gives players the opportunity to obtain those characters if they are close on shards and I thought having extra contest bags available on the prizewall was awesome, I really hope that continues!

I thought the boss battle was well constructed, there required superstars were a little on the more difficult side required big poppa pump and HoF hogan, but I do enjoy the challenge. I liked that most of the required CSS were level 15 and below for the boss however I did find the 6* Lashley requirement to be interesting, I would be ok with that structure going forward because it balances out making those milestones “easy” but also rewarding players with bigger rosters and upgrading their characters.

the tours were well done in the sense that some were challenging but none were absurdly difficult, I thought they were perfectly balanced.

overall I really enjoyed the event, especially with its placement after the Rocky event.

takeaways:

I thought the contest bags with guaranteed shards on the prizewall was a welcomed change and would like to see that continue. I would like to see an option to get guaranteed shards of past superstars or current CSS on the prizewall. Additionally, I wish there were other options for skill plates available on the prizewall.

the boss battle structure itself was very fair, including milestones and CSS superstars, though I did think having HoF Hogan and Big poppa pump both as requirements was tough for many players.

The tours were well constructed and were balanced well between doable and challenging.

I would give this event an 8.5 out of 10, overall with great enjoyment

Maybe take a week off of releasing new people and fix the broken connection issues that keeps happening every damn week!

I think it he was pretty good in my opinion. I enjoyed playing with him and he is a strong hitter as most strikers are.

The event was really good

Tour Requirements are almost common but yeah Hard to do but we will take it

20k points from each 20lvl is good hope it'll not change to any lower

IN LAST i want to say you please remove red rings from game as we done it few months back hope you can control them again

I find Boss battle to be too long and tedious. I'm able to leaderboard because most people just give up on the leaderboard due to that. I think it should be shorter to 20 hours like faction feud.

Phenomenal Hof Angle put together nice moveset. The challenge of unlocking him through tour and faction boss was hard to complete. Faction boss not have multiple toons to get bonuses to carry over hurt me . But liked the overall experience.

In game name - Victor091993

Positives- Glad to see another Kurt added to the game. Tour requirements were tough but fair. Connection seemed pretty stable during Boss Battle, only had 1 match freeze and end unplayable. No talent up this weekend was wonderful

Negatives- I am not a fan of level 20’s being locked to 6 star requirements, but I understand why. I wish prize wall gave option to purchase more than one item at a time, I bought all the contest bags and is tedious to click one at a time.
