Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

I think the main reason for people to be unhappy with this event is, that they don't have a single chance to win the card slightly above their RTTC lineup. NWGD said, that with "a little" challenge it should be possible. But if your read the posts everybody tells the same. I could win +7 against Malone easy and had no chance with the +2 for Ewing. If NWGD wanted to say, that the little challenge is to buy as many game nights to collect losses for getting the next card, than he knows not much about motivation. I was thinking about using credits to get Ewing, if i where able to win +2 games. But not with a lot of losses.
And I am at Star+ in QG, so the Malone will not even help for QG or season lineup. Not even a Ewing would help for any of these modes, but at least Ewing would have been a help in some future time, if i am able to dupe him.

Exactly what I was saying mate. I had already done the maths on how many game nights I had to spend credits on and how many hotstreaks etc then I get into the Ewing teir lose 5 in a row without even getting close and stop decide it is time to stop playing this mode.

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

Since I downloaded the update, I have this message that appears:
"Download failed because you may not have purchased this app"

I uninstalled the game and reinstalled, but nothing to do always the same message...
I've read a little on the net that this is due to the location of folder on the phone or I know not too much what but I can still not...

Has anyone had this problems with the new update?

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

One thing that really irritated me was that NWGD suggested we should be able to get one above our tier. So I expected to be able to get Ewing. With that in mind, expecting I was going to be doing +2's, I bought the 2nd to largest hot streak pack when I was most of the way through Malone.

Then I hit Ewing and lost 5 times, and the hot streak didn't even double the loss to 2 points, and I realized that it was sunk cost and I wouldn't be able to get Ewing without buying a ton of game nights.

That whole "Hot streaks expires after the event" combined with NWGD overselling how far people could get with the event was a real kick in the nuts. It honestly feels like it was intentional for people to be flying through on +7 and grab hot streaks to try and get through the expected reward level, only to brick wall and waste credits.

I would much rather have used them in the coming RC if I knew that NWGD had lied about how RTTP progression would work.

So far, I'm a long long long way from impressed by NWGD's half truths and doublespeak with this update.

What I've learned from the past 5 months is not to completely believe everything he posts until you see it in action and can verify it yourself.

1. Auction House was coming soon right from the start and it took them 4 months for AH Beta to arrive.

2. When he said they will give credit rewards to top 4 season finishers last Q&A. All was happy and was just debating how low the credit rewards will be. But he conveniently left out the information that this was a replacement reward and not in addition to the reward system then.

3. Also in the Q&A he was asked if a new tier was coming and he was non-comittal and just said they have a lots of plans for the game. But they made a blunder and left the playoff filter on in the update.

4. And this bit about RttC you explained. Honestly my expectations was so low for this event and wasn't expecting much so as not to be disappointed (good thing my lineup was enough to get thru it).

I'm sure there are other instances. Basically he only shares the information he wants to share and not everything especially if he knows that information will not be looked on favorably by the players.

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

rttc is a nice idea but horribly executed
u dont gain anything by playing this. your deck is only strong enough to get cards that dont help u

auction house with all the restrictions is a disaster. u cant even sell anything for the min. amount
you are basically losing credits by putting up stuff ont he auction house

now we also know all the grinding will be wasted time/money soon once u release the playoff cards.
even the HOF cards that are an insane 75 Euros for 1 virtual card

howmuch are u gonna charge for playoff cards? 100 euros?


the greed cd is showing is insane!

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

I'm in the finals and I'm tanking on purpose even though I might have a chance to win because I'll end up spending those "free credits" on boosts to pull it off. Those rewards are ridiculous. Might as well call them consolation prizes. When everyone pretty much gets the same thing from the quarter finals up, there's no point in wasting "flexible" credits to win the series.

CD made a horrible mistake making the rewards so similar from the quarter finals up. What they should've done was keep the card rewards and just add credits for the semis and finals rewards. That is what the community asked for. Also,I honestly believe they should give extra credits rewards to the top 3 positions at the end of the regular season. That would make regular season interesting with people really struggling to get position. Instead of only bothering to energize a few times a season, so as to just barely make the playoffs.

Re: Update 6 Release Notes - March 18th

The only good thing with the nerfing of rewards is that eventually the market will start to have a meaning, coz cards will be harder to come by. There wont be 50 Teagues and Rodmans and Kawhis and etc etc, so maybe that it will be easier to sell even weaker cards...

Time will tell... Me personally, i would like the rewards to return to what they used to be. I'd love to get 5 or 6 Stars every 8 days, but it's not up to us...

I see your point. But I ask you, don't you think there will be less cards on the market after the 1st couple of weeks and people are drained of their huge supply of cards they have been hording while waiting for the AH to be added? Because I saved a ton of cards, just to put on the AH. Now I have sold probably about 15 cards so far and my supply is already being depleted. I'll be out of cards to sell by next week at this rate. I assume it'll be the same way for most.

Also, CD is going to make less money on players boosts during the season and playoffs. People are not going to waste credits on boosts if they are pretty much all getting similar rewards. So, in a way, they shot themselves in the foot. Of course, only they have the data to do a real cost-benefit analysis. But I can tell you one of the costs is pissing off the community

I have sold some cards while others weren't sold (I only list epics-stars) and I won't repost any unsold cards so they will all become training fodder except stars and there are also some cards I won't even try to post because of the high chance they won't be sold. So you are right my extra cards will be depleted sooner or later. But at the same time people's free credits are also being depleted even faster (only those who don't need to buy from AH anymore will have extra credits). So bottom line less cards on the market even lesser credits flowing in the market.

the cost of pissing off the community is not present in any of CD's spreadsheets.
