    We should all pretend it is a misunderstanding.  Perhaps we should all submit support tickets along the line of...

    "I was only issued __ and __.  On the forums it said I should expect __."  (The TLDR of Ice.)
    OK, maybe not.  Now that I see the new announcement.  :)

    Sounds like they were in a meeting. I wonder if the outrage is going to move the needle at all about how this rolled out.

    They're listening, anyway:

    If they were worried about over-reward, they could have just used all newer 4s to feed 5s, and kept the structure the same. Surely less people have max champ Juggernauts than do 4* Professor X for instance.

    This was supposed to be the make-good for a terrible anniversary.  So now that covers can be given in fractions, Iceman to Iceman and px to PX are "obvious feeders."  For gods sake, the only talk, FOR DAYS, were arguments about the conversational vs literal definition of the word "couple."

    Got 10 5* covers and a bunch of shards  for doing absolutely nothing more than opening the app - sorry, not going to complain

    Did only 4 star shards/feeders go live with this update? Because my reading of IceIX's update indicates I should have seen a lot more shards for 3 stars from my 2 star farms and Mordo from my champed Doctor Strange...

    My confusion has more to do the 3* shards gathered from my 2* farm, I got some shards for 3* Thor but not for any of the other 3*s I have at a level I should have gotten from the 2*s. Not that any of this is an actual big deal as I’m playing 5*s primarily and I’m happy to have gotten the 5* kitty cover I’ve been waiting for along with a few others, but I find it confusing that I got shards for some 2* champ levels and not for others.

    The only shards you will get from the 2* farm is for characters who are in a certain level range.

    For example L107-114 should get you 100 shards. That's because at L115 you will get 200 more shards and that plus the 100 will get you a 3* cover (the old reward at L115).

    We are not getting all the retro shards from max champed 2*s (ie at L144 you are not getting 600 shards since you already got all the 3* covers when you max champed the character).

    Gotta give them props for starting the new thread on the feedback, at least they're paying attention to the good and bad. 

    No lie, I do feel cheated and robbed. It's sad to say d3 said something and gave us something else. Alot of players missed out on alot of rewards. A simple solution is to just give us the rewards and call it a day. It's a quick solution so we can keep moving forward but they like to drag things on.

    Cool.  But lso kind of irrelevant without context.  Under the established system for adding feeders, you would have gotten more covers and shards.

    Plus, not matter what you got today, in the long run, if you keep playing, you will have fewer CP/HP to deploy on other 5*a of your own choosing. 

    Whether those factors change your opinion is, of course, up to you.  But presenting only the facts in your post without considering the other information leaves everything more than a little incomplete.

    assuming you would get something because you got something a certain way before was only that,  assuming.


    it lead to a bunch of people being disappointed. The fact that we use to get the retro feeder awards that way before might have been the reason that we were getting so few feeders now.

    you are commenting about the champ reward system changing, I did not say anything about the old reward system compared to the new one, my statement was towards people complaining about the retro rewards and I think it's petty to complain like that when they got a bunch of stuff but it wasn't as much as they had hoped.

    Sorry in advance if I should already know this: I read the original post and comments as hard as I could.

    Did you guys get an in-game notification about the new system or retroactive rewards? I can see the champ progression screen changed, but I didn't get a notification or retro rewards. I should have at least gotten a few.

    Also - do characters that now have a "secondary" reward character receive shards for these retroactively - or is it just the primary?

    Thanks.

    How can you lose something you never had?

    LOADS of missing shards from 2/3* champ rewards...

    Also super lousy that some characters got direct nerfs to their rewards. ex. 3* Captain Marvel now gives 1.5 Talos covers worth of shards, instead of literally any reward.

    If it's between getting Talos shards or no rewards, I'd pick the latter  ;)

    Now I’ve calmed down a bit I actually think they are to be congratulated. Not in a million years did I think they could surpass some of the other launch disasters they have added to the game to disgruntled feedback.

    This one though, not only does it seem the fiercest but also the least diversive to the player base.

    Thanks for bringing almost all of us together for this holiday celebration.
    It's a Festivus miracle!
