Everyone, here's some math for you, tell me what you see:
9x3 = 7
9x4 = 36
9x5 = 45
9x6 = 54
9x7 = 63
9x8 = 72
If the first thing you said to yourself was "9x3 is wrong" instead of "5 of those are correct", stop and consider for a moment...
There's a lot of good stuff kabam has done on the most recent update. What sparked me to think about this was the recent offerings in the raid store.
Did anyone notice there has been 600 easy energon offered in the past two weeks?
A big thanks to kabam. It seems they are listening and trying to do right as best they can while keeping their business model intact so the game can remain profitable.
They may not come out and say "hey look everyone, we're putting the stuff you're complaining about us shorting you on in rewards and other game modes, hope you're seeing this"
Sometimes we are very quick to cry foul... Don't get me wrong, we should (and will) continue to point out issues.
I know I've tried to change my tune and be a little more constructive in my criticism, as I'm one of those players that often rips into the decisions made by the kabam team.
Just thought I'd take the opportunity to let them know their efforts haven't gone unnoticed.

For me, the best thing about the update has been the removal of crash on load penalties.
As a person that would stay on top of recharge timers, trying to consume all my energy, raid tickets and AM energy would result in multiple crashes before I was finished. Changing modes in particular would guarantee a crash after a fight or two.
It's such a huge stress release just being able to focus on playing and not be scared of losing a huge chunk of health unfairly.
Another thing, kind of small, I like how Galvatron is an ambush enemy in spotlight. Reminds me of old school games where the boss would show up early and bully you and then disappear in a huff and vow to deal with you later when you're more worth it. It's a clever little design thing that deserves a nod.
The raid store changes are good, I'd like to know if it's random or a set schedule. If we can make a calendar for it, that would be awesome.
I did the same thing. In my case, it means “I just ate dinner and I’m in ‘full belly/brain off’ mode”.
Anyway, I agree with @Manthro wholeheartedly. It’s too easy to be a whiner. We should remember to appreciate the good things, while giving mature, useful, constructive criticism when necessary.
Good point!
Raids have improved as a whole with the daily rotation. Arena's are a little less productive on gold and energon but I feel like they're better. More variety in awards and the 24 hour cycle means it's a lot easier fight for the top rank. This is better for those with busy schedules because they can take advantage of free days and rank well. The old 3 day system demanded constant dedication or you missed out. It's also less wait time if the current arena doesn't interest you.
The raid store is something to look forward to every day and has had some very high tier rewards as well as energon, which is greatly appreciated.
Keep up the good work!
T3b is in raid store wow! Our Kabam overlords have answered our prayers! Thank you lol!
Quick, ask for a million (real) dollars.
The change to arena is a mixed bag for me. On one hand... I like not having to worry about grinding for most arenas and I think this will add longevity to the game for some players.
The downside of the arena changes is that if I need gold it used to be a place I could grind for it. Also, since I find myself not playing arena much it essentially has taken away a game mode.
Exhibit A... 9x3 = 7
Yep, the crashing is still a problem and they are working on it, probably should have had it solved by now, but...
The irony of the health penalty is that the players actually did bring it upon themselves by using an exploit in game to rematch when they had a bad round.
So, while the crashing I suppose is "Kabam's fault", the health penalty is not.
Either way, it doesn't necessarily make all the other good stuff they've done on the update worthless. Look at all the other players that are voicing their overall content with the game at this point in time.
Dexter? Is that you?
@Kabam Miike a million dollars? (Pounds for me, I'm English). Haha jokes aside t3 knights in store, wow this is good!
