Question about "AM no gold cost and rewards"

Hello,
@Kabam Miike said "The overall gold payouts for difficulty 16 and up have been slightly reduced..."

looks like this "slightly" is like 4 times lower then the original. So in general we get no gold benefit from this event. We will get like 10k gold in total from this event since we get back 85% of the donation without event from 5 days AM 3 groups complete on 100%. Just in this event we donate no gold and receive same...

Is it only me feeling that way or...?

    yea the gold rewards being nerfed too much
  • Yeah, wish we had known how much was getting taken away, or I would have spent less gold over the weekend. Now I have to grind up all that gold back and AM won't help replenish it very much. Thought worst case we would be looking at 50% less.
  • Before doing AM was a net loss for gold. Now it's a net gain. You're complaining about not getting as much as you had hoped for. To not get any complaints, next time they just won't get anything. At least that's how I'm trying to raise my children when they whine after getting something 'special' but not also a second or third something special. (It's not working though, I'm still taking them out for ice cream after dinner occasionally)

    The gold rewards weren't nerfed at all, because in the normal system there is, at best, zero net gold reward.

    Think about it.. did you net any gold in the previous AM donation system? No.

    Everyone should have waited to see what the rewards were gonna look like before blowing their wad.

    This is like watching all the 2 day millionaires at Money Mart on the first week of the month with their welfare cheques and then they go to the casino.

    lets keep in mind this is meant to be event as @Kabam Miike say to have "more gold in our pockets". Its not patch update that is going to be permanent... Its event that we should benefit from it. If you are happy with 40k gold for 5 days its your choice but I`m not. I play online games for more then 10 years now and I know what event is. Like the 80% discount card for energon few days ago its total event by all means. But 40k gold for 5 days that we actually need to play and succeed to win it its not an event.
    I do not try to start so world war or something here I simply ask if other ppl feel same way like I do

    p.s. : adjective, slighter, slightest - small in amount, degree, etc.:

    So for me 75% less is not "slightly"

    imho gold reward should not be reduced unless cost to upgrade the bots is also lowered as well.

    but thats just wishful thinking on my part.

    Positive net gold or negative return.... hmm let me decide which I think is better

    The gold reward to the player was increased, not decreased... Comments like this don't make logical sense.

    Were you getting 40k gold extra in your pocket in the regular AM donation system before?

    No!

    So how have they reduced the net reward to you, the player, here?

    We're getting more gold now (to go into our virtual pockets) with this AM than we were in previous AM's. Whether you donated your winnings and an additional amount to cover AM or you donated everything upfront, you never came out "in the black".

    It is a smaller amount but it's still a positive gain vs standard AM returns.

    People mad about the gold were hoping for a 50% cut but instead we are getting 25%. Yes its a net gain and yes its still worth it but the gold cur isnt as slight when we thought.

    Slight is synonymous with small, probably should have been phrased that the gold return will be slight not the cut In gold rewards would be slight. However Kabam miike already took the fall for this so I am fine with it lol.
