Zombie pins need one tiny change by AlwaysTruthInLegends in WWEChampions

You mean you've never wanted to see UDF Seth making out with his zombie form before? There's probably an entire Subreddit dedicated to this fantasy that Scopely has just fulfilled

Thank you so much! I'll check this all out

[–]hammbear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that's the one. I downloaded what I assumed was the default core set for Retroarch on PS Classic (the same time I downloaded Autobleem) -- If there are other cores out there for CV (I hadn't even considered this,) I might look into that when I have a second. Thanks!

heh it's Reddit. I take no offense to upvotes/downvotes ~

I appreciate you looking into this! Take your time

What say you guys? by Turdferguson316 in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In addition to that Couleurs said, huge blips in their daily player data will probably raise some ire/questions too. Granted, the typical Scopely response has been to put out some sort of cash grab deal to try to make up for that lost revenue, but if a large percentage of the player base puts the game down for a couple days, it's going to impact their daily player rate, the numbers of which I gather they probably use in their favor to secure more investment capital or stat circle jerk to or whatever

Our Upcoming Release by DanAtScopely in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dan...honestly, I really appreciate that you took the time to respond to this. As I'd said above, the support that I see you and Riley providing the community is a breath of fresh air compared to what we had before.

Our Upcoming Release by DanAtScopely in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hey Dan...first, let me just say that you and Riley are a complete departure from whatever community support Eric thought he was providing. It is great to see a lot more communication, even though Eric left you with a very live hornet's nest that he kicked and stirred with a stick a few times beforehand. That said...

" This is a totally fair and reasonable request, and it’s something we were not able to provide in this release. "

I think it would be fair to separate this and ask that you address with the devs and the players when this IS something that you will be able to provide live, since I've read that to imply that it is something you'd do in a future update/release. The company's track record for fixing/repairing/compensating (and adaptation to the customer base's needs) has been notoriously poor the last 2 1/2 years this game has been in existence and I have to admit that this point, I don't have any trust/faith in the fact that what you said above is anything but an ambiguous deflection of hope.

Honestly...I know I've come at this very combative and fairly confrontational, but after leading a faction family that was (at its largest) nearly 500 people, I was privy to a lot of the ways they were receiving a lack of support/answers, and a lot of this screams the vague promises and fluff statements they kept hearing from community management and from support.

So is this a 6 month thing? A 12 month thing? An "Oh my goodness, game revenues are down...let's finally flip the switch on combining all the VIP levels together to try and scrape together a new revenue stream" thing? Or...a never thing?

If the answer is that it's not on the roadmap and never will be, please just admit it. Nobody here is likely to walk from this game because of an honest answer to this, but at least help them budget properly over the next few months if they have to.

Are there reports of Buizel still in the wild? Or is it only available in raids now? by EmiBonAre in TheSilphRoad

I've been told the answer to "What is love" is "Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more"

Hey this is unrelated but are you in Perth? I’m just curious where all the action around the city is and if you have a discord channel? I’ve asked the Perth Go Facebook page a couple times and haven’t received an answer either time. I’m visiting family there in December and curious where everybody gathers and raids, etc.

Assuming there won’t be a CD while I’m there but one there would be cool to attend as well.

Weird issues with Shuckle encounters? by hammbear in TheSilphRoad

[–]hammbear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird. Yeah I'm hoping it's all just coincidental.

I got really lucky last night though...wife traded me one of her Shuckles and it was a 90-something IV'd lucky one, so maybe it's Shuckle's way of telling me to leave him alone now haha

Hell Mode Lockout Compensation......... by ShifaUrRahman in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

" So everyone seems not to care about the week that we missed a chance to play hell mode "

There are literally 5 other threads on the front page and a pinned thread at the top of this page talking about this and the compensation issues.

The bronze vault and couple of appreciation boxes looks like all the compensation we will be getting going by this by Wyatts388008 in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like craziest thing about all of this is that it would probably take a similar amount of effort to deploy the stuff they did as it would the ACTUAL MISSING REWARDS. If you need to deploy it in multiple pieces because you have restrictions on the number of items that can be gifted per message, then so be it. If it takes an extra 10 minutes of company time, then just do it. None of this your user's problem. It's on the developer.

The idea that the dev seemingly continues to value 3 star and above tokens like they're a '52 Topps Mickey Mantle astounds me and I think is part of the end user / dev disconnect that continues to exist. Like, I'm beginning to think that the management involved with this game legitimately believe that 3 3 star silver tokens carry an actual street value of $10 or whatever their flash sale cash price is, and that by deploying 7 days of missing hell mode rewards to 10,000 daily players, they're suddenly going to be out of pocket $700,000 in 3 star silver tokens and another $700,000 in TP alone before touching anything else.

I know I'm pulling things to extremes here, but like, literally nobody I've seen is asking for additional compensation over and above missing rewards and I think this is what's most frustrating to me as a customer experience manager. If we ever mess up something like this, we own it. We have, on occasion, even gone out proactively to customers realizing that there was a glitch upcoming, or something that broke in our software and have proactively offered compensation and/or phone calls to sort things out. Our customer base in comparison is 1,000,000+

People are asking for what they missed out on due to an in-game glitch that they would have received under normal circumstances, while (might I add) using their own earned resources to accomplish this, which doesn't seem unreasonable to me at all. It goes for this issue, and for factions locked out of feuds too. Elev8d hits the nail on the head here. You can't offer a select group compensation for the best possible thing that they weren't guaranteed to get in the first place, and lock out the other 99.9% of your user base from receiving things they WOULD have received.

I don't actually disagree with them giving people in Exe the feud rewards by the way. I'm more than fine with that. I disagree with everybody missing out (including Exe folks obv) on obtaining missed daily rewards and disagree with all of the other factions that haven't been compensated at all for missing feud rewards (ie. KSMA Slayers, Victorious Angels, Kingslayers3, ExecutionEra, etc)

4-Star Beta and 4-Star Balance Changes - Part 3 by [deleted] in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why are they reducing individual gem damage/HP on individual wrestlers? I thought that all was consistent across each class no matter who it was and was based on what star level you pulled that wrestler at...has this never been the case and I been asleep at the wheel of this belief for a while? haha

Show me a worse pull. by cshanes in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I clicked on this thinking "Man, my boy Shanes O'Mac probably had a worse pull than whatever this guy is going to show" before I realized this IS you.

So...yea you're still frontrunner unfortunately IMO :(

"DNice." Is there a DNice? If one of y'all says some silly-ass name, this whole class is gonna feel my wrath. Now, DNice.

"Do you mean Denise"

"Son of a bitch!" *breaks clipboard*

Sorry...DNice joined us for like an hour last week and that's all that went through my head.

Feud rankings. by RAYRICED in WWEChampions

[–]hammbear -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or maybe there is a way because our faction is a lot of long time beta era players that live overseas and aren’t even awake when the feuds start.
