argle_bargle said: As someone who was blessed by the RNG as I was champing all my 3*s, I have a single champ 5*. It's an "old" one, but it's still a level 450+ character I use pretty much all the time. It has taken me to T10 in SCL8 PvE and given me plenty of mileage in PvP. Definitely not useless. If you are calling old 5*s useless, consider that you are effectively playing a different game than some of the other folks on here. If you are butting heads with the latest maxed out meta on a daily basis, that's a different experience than someone who hops on and does just enough clears to reach max progress before logging off.Also, the complaints about SCL10 are absurd. It's meant to be hard. The scaling on character levels is just going to do that. imo, the rewards are commensurate with where your roster is if you can mop up there. If it takes you hours and you barely scrape by, consider dropping down to SCL9 or accept the reality of facing level 500+ enemies.

It's not worth for the player and especially for the devs to work on this unless they find a way to improve gamming with the old chars. The problems are way before this point

You need them once a year. It's not worth for the player and especially for the devs to work on this unless they find a way to improve gamming with the old chars. The problems are way before this point First because some "old" chars like Kitty, Okoye, Thor, Iceman, Dr Strange, HE, Thanos are very meta right now (or very usable at least).Second, because once these chars are once again easy to get, Devs would be able to buff them to more usable levels. Which would also make the releases way more manageable (the 4/new 5/ reworked 5) release rate I was talking about.Third, these old chars are also required chars in a lot of PvEs, so having them champed helps in those.Fourth, because of FUN. I mean, this is a game about collecting Marvel chars so you can use them in different teams. Collecting is part of the fun and being able to use them it is too. I feel SAD when I see so many 5s I will never be able to get.And finally, because it would ease the pressure to champ all the 5s when they are in Latest, which would also help to enjoy more the game.

I always assumed the reason they decided to sell character costumes rather than menu skins or variant comic book covers was that they are visible to other players in PVP, which would drive further sales as people see the costume in action.So it seemed crazy that they would then provide no way for people to act on that desire if they missed the costume's release window.

argle_bargle said: If you look at total rewards and assuming full PvE progress, it only takes 2 or 3 Legends pulls per day to keep up with the 4 week 5* release rate.
argle_bargle said: Yes, I have played in SCL10, thanks for asking. I managed to max progress and decided it was not for me, time investment-wise especially given my current roster. I said "level 500+", the plus implies that it goes up from there. Not all the enemies are level 650. The scaling I was referring to was how the damage and health numbers scale with level.My point is that it doesn't take SCL10 and whale spending to make progress on 5*s.

JustJoe said: How about beginners and medium-rated players?
JustJoe said: My bad, forgot to mention that I once lost all my progress already when transitioning my account between devices. However, I decided to give it a try after changes made in the last months to see whether something has changed, but unfortunately, I can only see the root issues being "cloaked" with new approaches rather than resolved. Shards versus Bonus heroes, seems pretty much the same, possibly even worse toward Shards, they just allow you to direct your aim at a particular character, which is still lacking due to the frequent characters' releases. But ye, on the other hand, I understand the company needs to make their millions somehow Anyway, I am not trying to encourage some hatred here or anything, it is just my opinion as anybody else's positive or negative feedback, but assuming the dissatisfaction of majority of devoted fanbase with recent decisions, it seems like a common feeling
Michael1957 said: Joe is right , this is a whales only game. If you missed the initial launch there’s really no point in thinking you’ll ever catch up or be competitive. I started , missing the first 3 years , so I couldn’t even sniff a decent 5* until over 2 years of playing . Even after 3 plus years I’ve never even placed higher than in the 30s. Plus 99% of the players are mindless clones who all follow the same play format using all the same team . For example, I finished 133 points out of first place in a node today , and finished 40th! So if you’re thinking of starting to play as a new player , play only for the enjoyment of the game and forget about being competitive.
