Suggestions Index of Hot Topics (Updated: 9/6/16)

The straw that broke my back today:
Randomized daily Deadpool, hated this all week. Ultron, 1- first time ever in a daily deadpool (no warning), 2- on a multi-round, and 3- on the first freaking round no less. No prior visibility to opponents on rounds to determine if I have the best characters chosen. Or that Ultron is now a randomize character. I do not care if Daily deadpool seems repetitive; it works for building your characters day by day. It’s my morning coffee!!!!

Good news:
I did love the recent addition of Championing characters. Prior to that feature, I was hating getting SO MANY cards I could not use and could only sell for fodder amounts.
Thank you for eliminating the 20-iso. It was insulting. Next to go, 70. Game costs too much for that non-sense.

Older growing gripes:
I have been border line writing this email since I Championed so many characters. The scaling of the opponents level to match my characters level is way TOO Close/High. Hate it. Everything just got harder and harder. Harder than prior to up’ing my characters. So WHY would I up my characters??? I am building (paying $$$ to build) my characters in order to wipe the floor against opponents in the Story levels. If I want a challenge I will play more on the Versus levels.

A wound recently reopened:
I hate the character balancing. Right or wrong, we start building a character based on all we know, the current spec’s. Every choice I make when spending hard, time earned iso, is based on those spec’s. Ex. I put everything into a character (2-star magneto) and you crippled him with re-balancing (ages ago). Recently a tweak to Ironman 40, not as bad a change as the prior example but still… If you are going to continue to balance characters, you should also do the following. When a player has a character being balanced, give that player a 1-time ability to shift cards within that character without cost, per impacted character.

Feels like cheating:
Two interrelated points about Opponent Boost/Team Ups on Story based level/rounds.
1- Player needs to be able to see every team up card before the level/round begins. If I can’t see it, you can’t use it.
2- NPC’s (soldiers, ninjas, etc) should not have the ability to use boost/team up if all main/playable characters are already defeated.

Recap - Do’s and Don’ts:
· You keep adding characters, good. You will keep me hooked to collecting and building.
· Give me ability to win iso faster/more to level up at a better rate than current. That might be addressed by simply seriously lowering the scale level matching of opponents on story levels. I can replay them faster and earn the now 7-some rewards per instance/round.
· Put daily deadpool back as was and leave it alone. If you must change it, make it winnable, so users can build characters at a pace other than months.
· Add ability to multi-select cards when selling them. And of course when using multi-select, do not prompt me/warn me more than once when selling cards of 3 or more stars. Easy, right?
· Scale the amount a card is sold for based on players level of that character. I like everything on the Championing feature… but then what when I get them to 255? More cards to sell for fodder amounts?? You need to give more iso when selling based on character level and champion status or when character is maxed. It’s an earned bonus for maxing your character and only encourages users to do it on more characters. This should apply (at a different scale) even if player does not champion as a maxed-out character.
· The Commander points are also a good idea. The 20-25 amounts for a random card are ok. But the amounts for directly adding cards to a character are insane. Don’t add the feature if you never expect a user to use/afford it. You bleed people enough and they leave/quit.
· Balance your balancing. Keep balancing to an absolute minimum or eliminate if possible. If you do apply a character balance, give user ability to balance the aftermath. Also, a nice to have, a notice in advance (1 week minimum). So we don’t continue in a direction that might not matter after balancing.
· Team-ups are not for NPC’s and must be presented to the Player at time of level selection.

Share this with your designers and coders during your daily scrambles, huddles, morning reviews, whatever you call them in your workspace.
Please reply with some good news, hopefully with a release date along with it.
At this time I need ISO more than Hero points; if you feel like making it right until the code changes.
