  • I seen naz compared to klingsor, ridiculous. I was the 1 who recruited 1/2 of 5dv. I was klingsor ' s 2nd in command for a spell. He is an egotistical nazi jerk. Naz is a good leader who puts the group 1st and looks out for everybody eise ' interests 1st.

    You make some good points and you are one of the few xmen who don't act all ****, but I have to call you out for that above quote as you said more or less the exact same thing about how great Klingsor was when you were with the 5D's so ill take that with a pinch of salt.


    Admittedly, I did defend klingsor early on. I have now been with x-men as long as I was with 5dv though. I was mistaken about klingsor and he was not a very good leader and was somewhat delusional. Naz on the other hand, nay not be the greatest with words and can get a bit heated occasionally, does have great leadership ability.

    as said by Jon, above, I hold respect for many current 5dv members as well as shield members. The current drama and jozier post however, are quite obscene and uncalled for.
  • Naz can you explain this method of playing harder?

    They touch the screen REALLY hard.

    Occasionally this cracks the screen, but buying a new phone sometimes is the price you have to pay to play as hard as they do.
  • I think this would be a much more productive. Thread if there wasn't [...] thumbs down given to all of Naz's posts.
    ]if you can deal with those questions without resorting to childish name calling and negativity it would certainly cause any rational person to think more carefully about your argument.

    uh... but... ummmmm...

    OK seriously, I have seen so many people in this thread posting about who cheated, and who did this and who did that, that previously would jump on anybody who had posted similar to send a ticket to customer support and be done with it.

    The standard procedure for reporting suspected cheaters I'd to simply send in a ticket explaining your suspicions. It is ridiculous a mod has even stickied this thread. It has no purpose but to increase hostility and cause drama. For real, what mod actually stickied a thread that should have been locked from the get go?
    Ridiculous
    2nd off

    I'm not gonna say any1 did or did not cheat. I don't know. No one else does either. Every game has cheaters. They all get to whatever alliances and no one can really tell. I do know that x men is 100 more organized than 5dv. At 5dv, at least when I was there, every score was tracked every event. The season average of every player from all 5 was always known. Yet xmen are 10 more organized. 5dv can swap and hop or do whatever they want but we are just more efficient.

    Regardless of any of that ****, this should be handled the same way as any other suspected cheat8ng, via a vs ticket. **** mods?

    I think this is less about reporting suspected cheaters than a flagship (by that I mean top 10 alliance) sheltering shady accounts that have obvious cheating signs, and all they can do to explain the accounts is that they play better than us and spend lots of money. This isn't about rooting out cheaters, this is about game integrity and integrity of the X-Men alliances.
    I agree with Psychopathic completely. This thread shouldn't have been stickied and no player that has been mentioned in this thread owes any explanation to anyone except for the customer support and they probably don't need explanations and can track stuff down (I hope). If there are people who are suspects, then you report your suspicions via a ticket and that's it. The initial aim of this thread wasn't that probably but now it turned to attacking certain players and alliance(s) which shouldn't happen.

    Oh no I sold almost all my 2* covers today to lvl my 3* Thor and daken I just bought the covers for. I'm a cheater. You guys are like a bunch of high school girls mad at the girl who is taking the best guy in school to the prom. Stop crying and beat us. That's the solution. Put on your big girl panties. And bring a challenge

    Why would we try to beat you when we have been doing what we have been and still be in top 2? As far as alliance ranking your the same right? Bc your also top 2? Maybe I'm wrong. In solo rewards I get told when I'm number 1 bc I get a worthless 4* cover. Has the game ever gave u an alliance reward and say your number 1 or does it say your top 2. Just realize your shield hopping for the same reward. So as far your number 1 all that is doing is to just boost your ego. At least when shield would win pvp they were told they were number 1. You guys are doing more work for less hp. So I think I'll keep doing what I'm doing.

    The game used to tell you if you were number 1.

    This thread is pure gold at this point.

    And yeah Naz...I'm one of those new recruits you decided to say something stupid about. Enjoy going broke. Also, as Lycra noted, and twysta meme'd...never smart to go full **** dude.
  • The above about shielding is incorrect. No one shields while low I never shield till I'm above 600 which I usually get 600-700 my first run. So actually it's a lot cheaper. But I did drop $100 today between buying Daken covers and coins. And if it don't bother you to finish behind us this thread wouldn't exists. So you can take that we get the same rewards spill and wipe your years with it.

    Shielding at 600 *IS* shielding low. Especially when you're doing it on the first day of the friggin event

    Err what, Reck was being insanely generous in her analysis if you're shielding at 700. That makes it even more clear her math is on the low side.

    Lol, shielding at 700. It's like you guys don't know how to play pvp at all.

    If I could give you all my rep I would
  • Also 25 per match would be a minimum. It would suck if that was my average

    I shield low because my roster isn't huge and I don't like earning points 2 times. And everyone with an ares and a widow can beat a full 3* team. No wonder you guys complain you have to earn your points multiple times from not shielding til 1k
  • With the amounts of shields and boosts being used to attain the scores, the X-Men and X-Men 2 who are averaging 1300 per PVP must be spending averaging at least one Stark Salary per week. To shield hop from 1000 to 1300, even assuming they can average 25 pts per match at one match per shield, would require 12 shields and cost 900 HP using 3-hr shields. Add in one 8-hr shield per PVP and it adds up to 1,050 HP per PVP, which is probably pretty conservative given what we are seeing from them with shielding. This does not count HP spent on +3 AP boosts, which some of the players with lower-end rosters almost certainly are using, or HP spent on health packs. So figure they are averaging close to 1,500 HP per player. Multiply that by three PVPs per week, and they would be spending 4,500 HP per week. I'm not counting shields spent in Simulator either or HP spent on covers.

    I can speak from experience because I spent like crazy in Season One on boosts and shields, and that was when the game gave out HP in much greater amounts. A lot of my alliance mates in SHIELD were able to pay for shields in Season One without buying HP, because they had saved since the beginning. But the newer players in X-Men can't have those stockpiles and with the limited amount of HP being provided, for many of the X-Men to be obtaining these scores legitimately, they would probably have to be buying at least a Looney a week. Maybe they are, but it's hard to fathom that so many players on one team are spending that much. Given that there are hacks out there that permit players to increase their HP, have unlimited health, and defeat any opponents with one-strike, the scores and rosters do raise legitimate questions.

    Paying $5 to $10 per hour for recreational enjoyment isn't exactly out of reach for most people even with a meager income so I don't necessarily see it as that terribly unlikely.

    What I can't see is how the game would be fun when you're just paying to have your name at the top of a list. I know if I'd just paid-to-win I'd be pretty bored without the carrot of roster progression and meaningful rewards.

    I'm glad that it spawned this entertaining thread though.

    Whoops I forgot I created the thread? Ummm...I don't get your logic u got better rewards bc u spent $100? I'm pretty sure that's nothing about rewards that's u spending money. And congrats you have spent more money than I have in 1 day. Check my roster and season score if u want. Im doing just fine. So you are disproving my we get the same rewards by saying we get the same reward? Your ego gets number 1 your rewards are top 2.
