DAMN! Showdown

The ShowDown CSS was all pay walled. Luckily, I was able to complete the other task. I was not able to reach the milestone with the solo points. (Just like every other ShowDown event.) Does not feel good at all.

Ultimate straps in the faction event milestones were awful. Ult straps with 10% stats, why? Those stats belong on a green strap. Not even the blue straps should have those stats on them.

The cost of hof shards on the prize wall overpriced yet again. Only being able to get 1 set of shards for old posters like hof yoko, hhh and perfect is silly. Yoko is just an entourage at this point, HoF Perfect needed only during HoF events and allot of people already have HHH. Those who don't yet have them, would have benefitted from being able to buy them twice. Silly decision.

Took a chance on some Ult HoF Straps (from the prizewall) and ended up with Move Defensive and extra turn chance. Oh, how I am sick of seeing those stats.

I completed all the task I can, and my faction maxed the event, yet still not enough medallions for Goldberg silver gear. Feels awful when you work hard on SD matches.

This weekend was a disappointment. You have done allot better in other events. This MLC has one more week and all I can do is hope for the best. Please do better Scopely. Thanks.

I haven’t made reviews for a long time, but this contest surprised me very unpleasantly:

Bad:

1. After receiving a bonus chest, there are no shards of a new character in the showdown event. (For some reason, characters from 2-3 years ago are crammed there, usually there are shards of the character to whom this event is dedicated.)
2. A factional event cannot be completed without a donation (This situation has already been going on for 2 months. Why make unattainable goals in events, especially factional ones.)
3. A solo event cannot be completed without a donation. (Either you must have a goldberg HOF, or Simmon, or completed a faction event to get a regular gold chest. This trend is already in its second month).

Good:

1. Not a bad wall of prizes (there are costumes for new characters, shards of old ones at an average price).

Let's summarize the results of this event: The event left behind, for the most part, negative feelings. Closing a solo event, a faction event exclusively through donation. If you don’t get a new character for 1 day, then you actually won’t be able to take anything interesting from the prize wall (the costume has already been purchased, most likely from someone who already donates, the dies are not useful, the characters are also most likely already there).Therefore, it is very disappointing that these characters and events cannot be obtained/completed simply by playing, now donating is a mandatory condition, even if you have all the required characters. Such events are very upsetting and discourage the desire to continue spending time and money on this game. I give it 1/10 for greed.

p.s. After seeing the tiles for donors in the next event, the desire to play disappears even more, since people absolutely do not look at the balance of their own game.

the event on a while was awesome. Ifvthe rewards were a bit more attainable would have made it more fun.

please try to reduce the reward costs once in a while for few flagship events.

The content was awsome but prize wall was to expensive and definitely need more shards for some more hall of famers would be amazing to obtain them faster but apart from the prize wall being overpriced i enjoyed the showdown regardless would love to win this new ron simmons for my roster

it has good and bad qualities a lot of lagging but this game is getting harder and harder to do things unless u spend think you need to include better options on pulls not everyone can spend hundreds to get people the selection in the pool r outdated please update the pools no reason to get George the animal Steele and other non hof characters if u want to do an event u should bring back the old hof like sting that u took out

Should make farming resources more rewarding. After all the daily content is done there is really nothing else to do in the game.

gotta love the "mega deal" gear offer for goldberg during week. yet you go and put his gear on a crap prize wall … achievable….. please tell me how the gold berg early gear offer was a mega offer deal lol…..

Sadly a lackluster event. Contest champion limitations, Faction event milestone points unreasonable and falling short.

Lets start with the actual showdown event, even after maxing all i could of the contest because i didnt have the CSS it made the grind all that much more 'fun' just to get the 500 medallions. It also seemed like if you were gonna let people steamroll their way to 3k noteriety with no limits to then have the final league as HOF slot - Open slot a kick in the teeth. Could we just have HOF straight away as some of us easily look over these things and wont often press on the requirements, just hop in and play.

The faction event slightly over 50% were able to hit 12 mil, there has to be some error in how this was scored. With all points hit in the faction event and most of the faction participating and doing their tours afterwards we were still 1.4mil off the max. Which breaking it down was about 3000 medallions a player if you buy them.

Didnt hit the last gold chest and i normally do, feel dissapointed with this event honestly. There could have been more leeway in scoring amounts for factions to hit the gold milestone then let the battle of spend happen.

Sorry guys but a 4 at best

Here’s a full disclosure on the DAMN showdown contest and how i felt about this;

• The CSS requirements were straight up ridiculous. The 700k mark on solo contest seems impossible to achieve unless you spend or have some of the high end HOF cards. I have been suggesting this in various posts that add a new layer to the solo contest that will eventually help the players to reconsider their strategy and make sure that they achieved their objectives but it seems like you have made them specifically clear with the past experiences and you won’t have any plans to make any changes anytime soon.
• SD points from every match with the weekend card or previously released superstars is the way to go when it comes to climb the ladder or rank high in the leaderboard. The matchmaking is soo off and felt broken at times as you work your way up. All this making the climb extremely difficult and senseless.
• The LTT were simply great for the entire player base and set up the field perfectly in every aspect. Just the way they are as always.
• Prizewall was soo underwhelming. Even though there aren’t that many of great options available but the golberg Silver gear was a easy choice for the most playerbase. The plates were pretty lackluster and not a gamecharger for the most part although the amount was definitely in most people range but i doubt people have any interest getting one from them. The selection of shards are good but the amount that is needed to recruit some of these 3K or 5K chases are always very low and expensive.

This weekend was kinda a miss. The shards for ron simmons was so low and the balancing was just not up to the task. I have seen time to time but this showdown contest was a little disappointing. The fact there’s only one last stop ahead in this MLC and i really wish that you could pull this off prior to next week. We have seen some great performances and changes in the last few months and hoping to see the results soon. Good luck and thanks for keeping us all hooked with these exciting events.

The mechanics of the matches are good but the meta seems to have evolved too much to turn 1 damage. Unless you stun or sub you pretty much have to win turn 1.

For faction contest, most people in my faction had to choose between getting the final 700k in the solo or helping the faction try to get the last 700k. I don’t think only having the top 60 or so factions hit the last milestone should be the goal but if so have it not be a contest point milestone.

For the solo contest, it feels like the gold chest for showdown events is much harder to reach than the boss or feud events for the same rewards. Also the points rewarded for solo ranking should be higher or there is no reason to try and get a higher rep.

In game matchmaking still doesn’t keep up with your rep, I shouldn’t be given 3 teams 4k under my current rep score even after refreshing several times.

As for gameplay, I enjoy the reversal/counter system and it’s been a very good addition. I’d say add stun reversals soon. Also the addition of moments/plates that help former high level characters stay even somewhat relevant has been great. Otherwise multi gem folks are the only ones who hold up.

Finally for plates I would prefer plate tiers that would let devs put in levels of plates or just creat minor plates that can be used. Example a more common drip or piper plate that has lower benefit but still helps. Ie piper plate alt that only give 50% gem dmg and 100% yellow or a drip that creates x3 instead do x7.

The weekend event relied far to heavily on CSS characters that are wait out of my league, unless I paid. It's just wasn't plausible to be competitive which sucked the fun out of the game. The values for fraction was poor too. Wasn't enjoyable at all

Pude participar de los eventos pero es muy difícil conseguir al 100% todo lo que se requiere para conseguirlo pero es muy entretenido y es a pasarla bonito, algún dia lograré pasar todos los concursos por eso me esfuerzo cada día por ser el mejor que tenga super estrellas de wwe, felicidades y sigan adelante lo hacen bien.

I agree with this other player.."

Love so much this game, but it seems to me that the game leaning more and more toward those who are putting a lot of money into the game.

Kind of sad that the f2p player can't get the gold chest milestone in this event or get enough token to get something helpful from the prizewall.

It's almost impossible for f2p player to have a good roster. All the good stuff (good posters // shards) are not available for those who don't spend a lot in the game.

Still think it's a good game, but frustrating and discouraging at time."

It is very discouraging. So many new characters behind pay walls. Fix more old characters and allow people to play
