  • Hope to learn the Mode , its not easy for a brand new player

    More tours should be tag teams. Sometimes the CSS required are too low a level to compete and being able to have a strong partner helps us manage resources.

    Appreciate not gating BB points behind Howdy(yet), because I can't imagine a lot of people have him. I'm guessing Nikki shards come next week.

    The event matches(both tours and BB) are fine. Css requirements are well put too.

    Prizewall items and coins availability is decent but would like to have more doable tasks in solo event.

    Currently I am at milestone 16 with 10.513 mil solo points by doing all tours with css and one solo task. To reach next milestone, my faction has to be number 1 in faction event. There's no other possibilities except to be forced to spend or got the css for 2nd task.

    That makes the faction event leaderboard reward useless for f2p players with similar situation as I(people who have done everything the game have offered to aquire points without spending).

    I would have love if such situations were considered accordingly and leaderboard would have been more worthwhile to chase if there's some additional rewards(be it prizewall coins or econ).

  • Firstly, having the Dexter shards in the regular store instead of the faction boss shop and needing to spend in-game-cash was a welcome change and I hope this stays.

    Tours were fine with plenty of css choices but it would've been nice to have some touts on Friday, even if it overlapped with Black Friday.

    The boss itself was good, connectivity seemed fine, overall seemed good.

    Main gripe is the lack of medallions and being able to get anything worthwhile from the prizewall despite maxing the faction event and teaching bonus milestones in the solo contest.

  • This weekend felt different with the Black Friday day delaying it.
    I actually liked the tour that is normally released day two (pig boy) being released on the first day instead. I think that should continue.

    I do like that the boss coins are in the tours bjtbthe amount given does need to be increased. There are so many characters and the boss breakers will never be able to be maxed unless we can get more. I get they are in the faction shop and of course the $$ store as well.

    The boss battle went really smoothly. Some characters are getting level 23 done really quickly (sadly I don’t have any of the big guns yet) so relying on the faction to advance and they always come through. I wonder if you could try a tag team boss somehow to make an extra challenge? Having to take down two wrestlers.

    Prizewall could still be a tad beefier. More options like select TP rather than rng would be cool to use up any leftover tokens.

  • Boss battle went fine but I still prefer all tasks at the start of the competition instead of splitting it into two days.

    Tours were good, I always enjoy when the tours have some sort of theme to the current product on tv.

    Faction contest is the only real gripe I have and it solely comes down to the end time of the contest. I would prefer if contest points are part of the reward the contest end Sunday evening instead of Monday morning.

    Prizewall was a tad expensive but had decent options.

    Good weekend all together.

    this was a fun faction boss, but… you released uncle howdy and there wasn’t a single reason to use him for anything and that’s a big miss. Maybe always have an event for a new character.

    Boss battle went pretty fine, I still prefer all the tasks at the first day of the event.Tours are also good . I love the to play the tour that have same theme as the wwe going through.The boss battle went really smoothly. Some characters are getting level 23 done really quickly . I love to see mercy shards at the store instead of boss battle shop

    Didn't have ant crashes this boss battle. Not sure if I was lucky or if there were any changes. But good experience!

    The actual boss was okay. Standard. No constructive feedback to add here.

    Faction contest was maxable with a decent faction

    I was able to max the solo contest, which is a good relief after not being able to quite often lately.

    CSS was good I think. Allows for variety.

    Extra buzzard shards via boss points was nice.

    The challenge tour was pretty easy, at least for me. It's usually harder.

  • I really enjoyed this month. But those free coin pulls should be spread out. I'm seeing people pull 69 2 days in a row but I never pulled it.

  • Zenshi
    Zenshi Member ✭✭

    PW - was decent. I think every PW should have some loot coins to spend your medallions on. People always love a good gamble, especially if they have majority of the things on the lower end of the PW. Would also love the chance to spend Medallions on "skill plate removal tokens".

    Boss - technicals worked as they should. I believe the faction leaderboards could use a bit of a segregation to keep factions more engaged. Having the same points from factions 4-10, makes it a bit dull.

    Tours - nothing to say here, they are as expected.

    Hi,

    Firstly, I would like to extend my sincere thanks for considering and incorporating some of my suggestions into the game. I truly appreciate your responsiveness and look forward to seeing more of my ideas come to life in the future.

    Boss Battle Mode:
    The Boss Battle remains one of my favorite modes in the game. The excitement and challenge it brings are always enjoyable, and I hope it continues to evolve.

    Tours:
    The Tours were well-balanced, offering a variety of CSS, which made them accessible and enjoyable for a wide range of rosters.

    Contest Superstars:
    This time, the Contest Superstars were well thought out. The variety and balance of the CSS made it easier for many factions to maximize their faction contest rewards, which was highly appreciated.

    Prizewall:
    I was pleased to see such great offerings on the Prizewall, particularly the shards for various Superstars. The pricing was fair, and the back-to-back availability of valuable items created an excellent incentive for players.

    However, I would like to suggest reducing the prices for Plates and some of the Straps. This adjustment would improve accessibility and provide more value for players.

    Suggestions for Improvement:

    1. Shards Bags: I believe adding shards bags to the Prizewall would be a great addition, giving players more flexibility in enhancing/evolving the Superstars they need. It would also be beneficial to include shards bags in the initial milestones of solo or faction contests.
    2. Tag Team Option in Boss Battle: Introducing a tag team option in the Boss Battle mode would add an exciting layer of strategy and gameplay, enhancing the overall experience.
    3. Speed and Multi MP Perks: Adding perks that enhance speed and allow for multi MP usage in the Boss Battle mode would be a welcome improvement, offering players more versatility and pacing options.

    Conclusion:
    Overall, this contest has been an extremely enjoyable experience for me. I am impressed by the ongoing improvements and the dedication to keeping the game engaging. Keep up the excellent work, and thank you again for considering my feedback.

    • The BB event still remains one of the most engaging and less stressful events we have had. I had no probelms what so ever no lags or unwanted crashes during the matches which was absolutely nice. Although i’d love to see some increased amount of bb coins for the faction rankings, it will surely make a huge impact.
    • The solo event contains great rewards specially the shard bags with newly released characters. Really nice to see this change. Many people got lucky and pull the shards they have been chasing. Even myself got some of shards that brings me little more closer to recruit them.
    • Faction contest continues to have the same old structure. When in reality this has to change for a better cause. The actual milestone rewards were somewhat acceptable but the leaderboard rewards weren’t quite impressive. Love to see a revamped version for the rankings because the points we received are doesn’t make any sense and literally feels like a waste of time.
    • The tours were fine. Having a wide range of css would definitely brings some flexibility for the players. One thing that many people have addressed in the past that the BB currency in tours as a reward were totally pointless. These breakers most of the time never come in the use besides the crack in the shield or heel freezer because the teams usually knock out the boss T1
    • The prizewall offers shards for a range of different cards this time. Also really nice to have some lower charged prices on the resources like TP bags and 60M coins bundle at the cost of just 2K but the real issue is still remains the lack of medallions being available in these events that needs to be resolved because for the most players they don’t even reach out to the deep bonus milestones where usually the majority of the medallions are but they really just get whatever in the final free chest or faction contest. This surely needs to have some balance for the overall reward system just to keep the fairness among players who heavily participate and deserve to have better results . I hope you taking all these feedback and making sure that in future contests will take these into account for a better experience and more positive results.

    Overall a decent contest, nothing different from the previous ones. Thank you for the opportunity and support you guys have been providing us.
    Let’s continue this ride and going forward to the final pitstop of this monthlong contest:)

    POSITIVES:

    • TOURS: Having tag nodes was a nice change. Not only does it allow the use of some tag links but it also helps some players to use a CSS in the 2nd slot.
    • STORE SHARDS: Having shards in the store rather than the Boss shop was nice for players who don't have the IGC to spend on refreshes.

    ISSUES:

    • BOSS MODE: The mode is far too easy these days. Any weekend contest should require more time and effort than joining 4 lobbies and 'completing' the event in under 5 minutes.
    • REWARDS: The 'highlight' of boss weekend has been spending my 7,700 medallions for a token pack. This couldn't possibly be any less exciting for a weekend contest.
    • TOURS: Boss breaker currency hasn't been needed for well over 12 months. This needs to be switched out for something useful like prizewall medallions.
    • FACTION CONTEST: The leaderboard rewards always feel worthless since they never actually help me to reach another milestone. Even for the 1st placed faction, one additional milestone doesn't feel very significant.
    • SOLO CONTEST: Milestone rewards feel very underwhelming. The cost of progress (points per loot coin) feels far too low. Unless you get a lucky loot pull, it's hard to find value for money in this contest compared to others.


    SUGGESTIONS:

    • Make Faction Boss more challenging and rewarding. Add 'bonus' levels which aren't required for contest progress, but offer additional rewards for those who want to continue playing. This could be something like 1,000 prizewall medallions per level. I would love to see 50 or even 100 levels, with 23 remaining the 'required' level for the faction contest and regular solo milestones. With extra levels, players could enjoy strategizing with their teammates to see how many levels they can clear together. The highest levels don't even need to be possible but it would be fun to use boss breakers and team building strategy again.
    • Introduce a side-contest for Faction Boss. This could be something like 'fastest time to beat the boss', 'most damage dealt', 'most gems broken' etc. Currently there is almost no incentive to continue playing beyond 4x level 23 matches.
    • Refresh the Faction Boss prizewall items and costs. Compared to other regular weekend contests, Boss has the worst rewards for hitting all the regular milestones. I feel that the medallions in regular rewards need to be about doubled, or prices cut in half for most prizewall items. For example, the new plate on the prizewall should not cost several mega pulls worth of medallions.

    It went just like how you’d expect a boss battle contest to go. Nothing bad in my opinion but nothing extraordinarily praise worthy either. Will still point out a few positives and negatives like I usually do:

    The positives:

    Having a tag team style matchup for the women’s tour was a very good idea considering there are many players out there that do not have a stacked female roster. Having to use nia jax in one one versus one scenario would have been dreadful and I am glad that Scopely came up with this style of match ups to help out the average player out there. So props for that!

    Me and my faction mates didn’t face any major connection issues during the boss battles itself so thats a good change.

    Negatives:

    Usually when it comes to prizewall I mostly see shards of those posters that came in within a year. I get the idea that most people want the latest characters but once in a while we should have a prizewall wherein we can chase posters that were released in previous years. I am short by 175 shards from recruiting Trickster Bubba and have been waiting for months now to get his shards from any PW. The shards offered on this one mostly were of mega chase posters that requires lots of spending to get to because the medallion cost of the shards is astronomically high. Since these posters have been out there for a while now, the cost should be brought down a bit so most of us gradually but steadily have a shot at unlocking the said posters before they get outdated.

    The medallion payout through the milestones as always is disappointing. Since we max out the boss battle faction contest by using extremely rare premium posters(like Roman OTC or Solo Sikoa New Tribal Chief, this time around), we deserve better rewards than what is offered in the “bonus” milestones of the said contest. For maxing the boss faction contest we get only 3k medallions which is an extremely low amount in proportionate to the grind it takes to do the entire thing(in addition to having the premium posters like i pointed out above)

    Getting 3k medallions for having Roman OTC and Solo Sikoa is like getting breadcrumbs after a long day of work.

    Suggestions:

    Instead of one, maybe have 2 prizewalls. One that offers shards of newer posters albeit at a high medallion cost and another one that offers shards of posters that were released a year ago or two but at a reasonable price. If you do this, I believe everyone will get more options to choose from and that boosts community engagement. I would rather spend on shards when i am only 100 away from recruiting someone that to spend when I am, say, 500 away from getting a poster.

  • I am going to have to give this event a c.

    The boss battle was fine overall

    The tours were pretty good, with good use of css

    Prizes from solo contest were not great

    Prize wall way too expensive even when you got in the bonus

    YOU SHOULD ALWAYS MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO GET THE NEW CHARACTER NOT JUST FROM LOOT

    In the bags we get there should at least be a chance to get the new character

    Boss Battle was good this weekend. I enjoy having faction task to work towards maxing the Faction contest. There was allot of variety in these tasks. Even if your faction did not have all the CSS requirements, the rewards in the milestones was pretty good. Nice work.

    Boss Battle seemed to run really smooth. I mentioned this on the last boss battle review as well. Something has changed on the technical side and it's such great feeling when things just work. Shout out the tech team!

    Limited time tours were good. The CSS was spread out really well. I saw no issues completing any of them if you have been playing this game for some times now. Even if you had to use props on the challenge tour, it was doable. Please keep the variety in CSS for tours. You guys have been doing so well with this and I for one appreciate it. Thanks.

    Having the Mercy Dexter shards attainable in the regular store and not in boss battle shop was a positive change. I can see players who may not have enough in game cash to recycle that, really appreciating the change. I know I did, and hope to see this in the future. Thank you!

    The war game prize wall is a tough one for me. I only ended up with 7,700 medallions. I was short of some poster shards I still needed. Not being able to get Solo or PH Cody shards was disappointing for me. I would have liked to see the cost of both of those shards reflected on what you could get from maxing the faction contest and hitting the solo gold chest. 125 solo or ph cody shards for 7,700 medallions would have felt fairer and worth the grind. I ended up taken a shot at the 60% gem ult strap and ended up with an era and class I cannot use at the moment. That fell flat for me, but I am used to it with RNG straps.

    Speaking of the RNG straps: It is too bad we cannot do a refresh on straps 1 time for gold or IGC. Would you guys consider something like this in the future? I would be interested to hear what Scopely thought of this suggestion.

    Overall, the event went smooth. It was not stressful, and I did not feel like I wasted my whole weekend on the game. Great work Scopely!

    Starting with the title, perfectly done for survivor series weekend and appropriate with faction boss battle.

    Some of the key points of my feedbacks are as follow

    • Selection of contest superstar for the boss battle were well planned.
    • Adding some css after few hrs is a good idea for the players around the Globe.
    • THE NEW ULTIMATE Buzzard’s Beak SKILL PLATE was a great addition.
    • Dexter Lumis “Mercy the Buzzard” Shards can be given more as it was his event.
    • Boss difficulty at higher level is now better. People engage more. Now.
    • Tour and their respective contest card were nice.
    • Good rewards is given in all the contests.
    • Adding time to the faction contest was better for players to collect boss battle milestone coins arround the world. So that was good decision.
    • Paid pull has some decent cards to go with. But after black friday loot, it was lack of interest there for us.
    • Prizewall has some good choice to go with. Greatly done.

    Overall great event. Keep it up for long .

  • This weekend was pretty good. This was one the more enjoyable battles for myself. I like the extra CSS for 'bonus' points as it helps out factions that havent been lucky to get the poster CSS (this weekend buzzard) to max out the faction contest. I hope this continues to have a 'bonus' character for points to help out the factions that could not get the 3k chase in time or whomever the chase character CSS is for battles in the future.

    I also enjoyed the fact that they offered the boss battle shop shards for dexter in the regular shop for just the coins without the rerolls.

    The tours were fair I did like the fact they were tag teams so that players that havent even been lucky for tiffy didnt have to use nia and could throw her in the back to get all the points. Getting to the gold chest and a few beyond was very fair.

    I hope battles continue to be as fun as this one was.

    Honest feedback..

    This was a strange choice.. we should have had the 2 x 18 hour feuds this weekend with the steel cage rules but we got faction boss instead.. slight drop of the ball imo..

    That being said for boss battle weekend I managed to 18/20 milestones so not bad. The structure around having mercy which gave bonus goodies seemed to give me a bunch of extra medallions.

    Stability of faction boss seems much better lately also

  • Solid event but with limited CSS options it was difficult to climb to solid milestones.

  • Skhan07
    Skhan07 Member

    the shards for lumis were scarce.. even not many behind paywalls.

    The fb faction event leaderboard ended and gave out fb points but at that time the fb points option in ongoing faction event had disappeared so factions aiming for leaderboard had their effort not matter at all…

    Really need Better system for belts and on the prize walls.. and they give totally useless belts …

  • I enjoyed this Faction Boss Battle. A couple of things I would like to see. Some players can’t start right at start time. And by the time we log on all of the faction requirements are done. Maybe we can earn points if we beat a 23 with that CSS once . Also for those of us that help carry we only earn boss tokens for first 23.

    Maybe we could earn a smaller number of boss tokens for each 23 after the first one. Nothing extreme. Maybe 50 or so. Just a thought.

    I like boss battle being more faction focused. I wish that maybe all the requirements were put out day one vs putting them out over 2 days. I thought the tour css were fine as well for The Weeknd. I’m not a big fan of all the medallions being inthe gold chest or later. Should be more spread out so if newer players can’t get tot the gold chest they can still get some medallions and get something off the prize wall.

  • Edomowit

    I like the loot coins as a prize for reaching certain benchmarks through in game play/tours etc.

    How about adding a search feature for when you are looking for certain trainers and coaches

  • The event was ok

    The issue many have was how poorly black Friday events was many disgruntled so left bad taste and negative feeling going into weekend event

    Many probably didn't want bother do to how poorly black Friday event was it just put big spenders that much unreachable from the grinders that play hard every day

    Id like see cage match rules return those was great

    increase the amount of boss breaker tokens. Maybe add them to the prize wall. Overall the boss battle ran smoothly. Did not experience any tech issue. Thank you
