THE MINISTRY OF DARKNESS

Boxout6 · August 2023

Overall the event was ok. I think the 6SS requirement should have been better communicated so that people were ready.

Other than that, I had no issues with the event. I think the prizewalls have become less useful as you barely get rewards even with passing a large number of milestones.

This new undertaker looks so great unfortunately for me this is one of the characters that i don't reach to get

In the trial really liked the new undertaker. Would love to get him one day. The event was good. Boss battle is getting more exciting with new challenges. Just still have lagging issue during boss battle.

This MLC has definitely been different. We don't know whether this was caused by Ali event, but a lot of small details about the new MLC have been nerfed. Starting from free character in Kama, era requirements for tours that give 6ss tokens as bonus, and now having 6 star silver superstar requirement for level 23 boss. Community did not really like those small changes, because it felt like a revenge, for what community has said about Ali's gear.

6ss requirement for level 23 boss was expected, but was not announced. For boss and roster plans, this change should have been announced so that players could get themselves ready for it.

Boss play was interesting and definitely more demanding than last one. If not beaten in first turn, players needed more plans to break pretty strong shield and win the battle. There were no color gem buffs for the boss, so that takes planning to another level, which is definitely appreciated in terms of creativity.

Undertaker as a new character is amazing. Good amount of different movesets that can be used, and what I liked the most, the move damage meta that him, new Faarooq and Bob Orton brought back. Since 6 star silver meta is mostly gem damage, seeing new characters having really high move damage is a good refreshment.

Most people did not like the high level of boss requirement for certain contest superstars like Iconoclast Edge, but I actually liked it. Edge as a relatively old character in the game was in meta before, and most of the people that had him before had him levelled high, at least at 5 star gold which was needed in boss battle. I liked it because that was small appreciation for older players. That's how I saw it.

Having shards of newer contest superstars like Solo Sikoa in milestones and in prizewall is good thing to see. This should continue to exist the same way it does now.

Other than that, event was pretty good, like most of the previous boss events. Only thing I would suggest is that bigger game changes should be announced separately. Good and healthy community could be brought back with just a few little changes in game politics.

Other than having enough Undertakers in the game to play a football game…Hes a great character. Probably so op you will nerf him. But I guess players would have to get him first. The “ contest “ is the same as all of them. Just time killers because I dont have thousands of dollars to buy the character! But…if I were to spend thousands on any character…it would be this Undertaker. Lol

Faction Boss is probably my least favorite thing in this game. This one was a little better, but still not great. By better, I mean I didn’t have as many bugs or issues this time.

Rewards for milestones need to be better for this. Everything is pushing towards five star for all characters l, but you repeatedly get the same thing constantly that doesn’t help you get there. It even felt like the amount of contest bonus point characters for this faction boss dropped.

While the Undertaker looks like a good card and seems to be able to neutralize GB Cena, there was nothing that made me want to spend money for chances to get him. Me personally, I don’t ever have the luck of pulling a character out of a grab bag like others. It’s always just shards, but that’s just a luck thing.

For the loot, there were no characters that I knew I could achieve. From previous weekend pulls, I already new how that would go and avoided it.

The biggest thing is the prize wall medallions. All these rewards get posted, but unless you are willing to spend big money, you will get nowhere close to getting the amount needed. That goes for every other contest also. I’m m not expecting to get enough for a 6 star character every time, but even with contest characters you can’t even get close enough to get anything more than coins.

Just summing up my attitude about this:

1) I think the 6ss requirement is fine, but I confess it’s because I’m flush with tokens and a stupid amount of 6ss cards already. Not everyone is in the same boat.

2) the change occurring at reset without warning is a significant flaw because this event is a sprint. The scouting days are spent researching and tweaking builds to target the conditions set up days in advance. The sudden change obviously disrupts any planning that occurred unless someone is just already set up with the planned cards at 6ss (see point 1).

3) When there is a critical error, particularly one that is irreversible (can’t unequip gear) and poorly explained, valuable time is wasted trying to pin down the source of the error— I’d say it took over an hour of trial and error to determine that the error only occurred if you had both gears but not one— meaning that instead of having fun with the event, we’re urgently play testing to search for the bug.

4) Related to point 3, upon discovering the irreversible nature of the error, we go back to point 2: we now have hopefully a backup plan sourced during the preparation phase, but if not, we need to start play testing alternative options while trying to quickly finish 100 x 4 rounds.

5) The one error in the gear is the most salient because that card was the most obvious choice and held by the most people, but it also leads to finding other confusing inconsistencies (I will reiterate that move damage not factoring in entourage while gem damage does is not explained anywhere and makes no sense when a move damage boost is advertised).

6) All of this combined goes in a bucket of wasted engagement. Days spent prior researching blown up, unclear directions and no feedback from the devs on why damage is inconsistently calculated, and then time in the actual contest is not fun anymore, it’s a volunteer QA/QC fire drill to identify bugs so the actual fun part can start. It doesn’t make sense to pay for this.

Really really poor communication as is becoming the norm, putting level 23 requirements to 6ss without proper announcement was absolute classless and showed what you thought of your player base, on top of that messing up coding on a superstar ( hof xpac) for having 2 sets of gear, then telling the community it was tough and deal with it again classless.

other than that boss was challenging but fun to play against had a few tech issues but that’s the norm and what to expect now from boss battles.

tours were ok pretty standard like normal.

I hope you start looking at your customer experience surveys and your forum feedback and understanding where your letting your player base down before the better players start to get fed up and play something else

The rewards from the milestones were great and I really like getting shards of the tougher to get characters from the bags. The milestones themselves were set at a level not too difficult to obtain. I hit 14 of 15.

The required 6ss at level 23 was a bit too soon in my opinion. I think only 2 factions were able to hit 40k. I only have 2 males at 6ss, luckily different classes so I got 2 of 4. I could take 2 old HOF characters up in the 2 missing classes. For me I can't waste the resources on 2 people who would only have to be carried by faction members in Boss Battle only. They really wouldn't do much else in other modes.

The Boss Battle mode itself is fun and does get the entire faction working together. It's like to see an improvement for the timer. You lose 5 seconds at the start of a rounds before you can get a move off. Also some Superstars need about 15 seconds for the move animation, then placement of the gems so it have found myself having to just let the timer go down to 0 because I know I won't get it all done in time. Then if you even get a 2 seconds delay trying to reconnect, you lose out.

The tour requirements were good for me this time around. Stevie was a challenge but i got it done. The rewards were also pretty good with a bunch of shards available.

HemiOaf · August 2023

i like the overall event but would suggest a few improvements.

6ss is a bit high for level 23 requirements, especially when the better character for boss battle requires very rare new HOF tokens

I want more diversity for posters that are good or even great at the battle, it is too much of needed 2 of one poster at a minimum to succeed.

i did like the variety of shard rewards!

TJ127 · August 2023

there are issues that can be fixed and sometimes they can’t so while the issue with HOF Xpac wasn’t ideal I think a lot of people can understand those unplanned things happen from time to time. However the issue of requiring a 6ss for level 23 is harder to forgive because that was within the control of the company. If you’re going to require that then that’s fine but don’t publish requirements with intentions to have different requirements because that’s not a subject to change situation that’s a blatant lie and lying to your customers is not a good way to encourage them to stick around long term

Other than glitches, I always enjoy Boss Battles. It brings team strategy to the game which I love.

I do have suggestions for future Boss Battles:

1. Drop down menu to choose your level

2. In game names under the wrestlers on the last screen. So we can brag to other faction mates for when there are multiple of the same characters.

3. No time penalty when you quit if at least 2 other faction mates have died.

GuilhermeSilva7 · August 2023

First of all, one of the Best characters, really love this Taker, design and gameplay, onde of the Best.

About boss i got surprised about the level 23 requirement, i think it makes sence but should make easier to finish boss solo event without finishing all the level 23, maybe finish 2 at max.

Tours and the events gave a lot of rewards, which was good.

Medallions should be more like always, at least an amount enough to buy 2x frags of some wrestler.

Tours bónus was good, not so rare wrestlers

Boss you gave the opportunity to anyone to use their free Xpac hof and make some good damage, good from you.

Resuming, this boss was really good.

Steen101984 · August 2023

Very solid event, I'm in with a better faction now, and all these events are getting better and better. Keep up the good work!

I loved to try the new taker, he is awesome, can’t wait to get him

i was disappointed to get many brood Edge in the loot. It was the first time that i got many and many time the same caracter in loot. Maybe having more diversity will be great in future event.

in general the last event was very great. Hope to have other event like this

Doe83 · August 2023

When such a drastic change in gameplay, like moving requirements to 6 star silver from 6 star bronze, is incredibly wrong to not inform the player base.

Faction Boss is a week long prep event, and it would have been nice to be informed of this change during that week. I know for the faction I am in, we would have used our resources in a much more Stratocaster manner throughout the week.

The fact the HOF X-PAC was unusable, and it is because of a known issue, was also not ok. Then to flat out say it won’t be fixed, and to “use someone else” was ridiculous. You knew the community content creators were making videos based on this character for multiple days, and you failed to address the know issue. It might be time to make gears removable in the game. There are a couple choices cards in the game that would benefit from this in various modes.

The good, Undertaker is a great card. The artwork and gameplay visuals are terrific.

TommyGoose · August 2023

I wish we were told before hand that six star silver was going to be a requirement at level 23. Really liked this version of the undertaker most. Maybe one day I’ll be able to get it.

rohit91 · August 2023

This undertaker man i think he is the best showboat in the game i like to get him but im a free to play player cant spend tons of money soo im just happy with the trial version i hope i got him in the bags but not in the odds overall its a good week for me

DamAl · August 2023

Personally I loved this Undertaker, fun to play with. One of the best you released so far. It was simply impossible to earn him

graboker · August 2023

I like the character. As for the contest, it was associated with boss battle and you know you did us dirty with 6ss 23's with no heads up, and did the ones who upgraded Hof XPac and had both gears extra dirty. We should be allowed to remove a gear in the future in case something like this happens again.
