Who Quit? Post Your Pictures Here

Marvel Puzzle Quest MPQ General Discussion
1

There has been tons of talk about quitting due to the recent changes. I have seen evidence from some of my LINE chats that long-time vets have deleted the app.

While I am not one of them, I am definitely heading towards more casual play now and have already transitioned away from VIP.

That being said, let’s show d3/demi just how upset we are. There are two ways.

  1. Leave negative feedback through whatever platform you are running the game on.
  2. Post your comment or picture of deleting the app below.

Please keep it civil. This is thread is not meant for ranting, but for a visual representation of the scale of our discontent.

Well I uninstalled a little while after the bonus hero vault thing - just before they announced the new off-season heroics thing. I just got an increasing amount of dupes I had to sell from CP pulls, and not into the whole hoarding thing. Not angry grrrah how dare they quit, more this has become the most pointless grind-fest there ever was as I am not getting any rewards or progress - screw it I’m going to do some work instead quit.

Didn’t take a picture of it, sorry.

Do have this though if it helps?

I really like you font :slight_smile:

4

Maybe 2 people did…everyone likes to talk a big game, but lets be real. they aren’t quitting.

5

In my alliance 2 quits by now…

6

I quit also, even gave truthful negative feedback, but that doesn’t matter much because of all the paid positive feedback that pops up to skew the numbers. I literally saw a 5 Star post saying the new superman character was the bomb…

7

It’s unlikely anyone who has quit will still be hanging around the forum about a game they no longer play.

8

I quit my alliance and I’m just doing DDQ each day to scratch the itch. Probably going to stop doing even that when I hit the 25 CP tomorrow

9

Had 1 quit the ally and a good portion decide they wanted to go casual

10

If I had quit, I doubt I would still be browsing the forums enough to post on a topic like this.

Day 820, and I am done. Oml was still relatively fine in pve, but I was screwed in pvp. I had a 456 oml, and next were 435 ss and 420 jean. I was already fighting dual champed 5s. And with the changes to oml, he needed a healthpack every fight. It just was not worth the hassle. And honestly, feels great now with no pressure.

And as expressed by many in the original oml nerf thread, he was one of the weaker 5*, and not a deterrent. Now he can barely keep up with 5* match dmg while having 20k less health than his counterparts. His health and dmg should have been buffed when his healing was nerfed.

Further, the reason for his use was to save health. Another issue not addressed. In pve, i can take a 15k tommy gun to the face, at least oml could heal it and then it was just 2 packs for the team. When you are competitive and need 3 clears followed by a new sub, 4 clears, you need it. I probably would have stuck around or come back if this game ever became less grindy (it won’t). But telling my family I need a 3 hour block everyday on the weekend is absurd. I finally saw the ridiculousness. And it is a real shame, because I honestly had started to like the diversity of the new 4*s.

And lastly, said this awhile back, I would love to support the game if it was less grindy or the prices were not so absurd. If i could spend a few bucks for the iso to fully level a 4*, I would have happily done so. But as it is, it would be about $100…so nevermind. Though I know the crazy whales will continue to do so for some reason,

I have quit as well. Just like the above poster I have been playing almost 3 years. My reason is not so much that haveing oml or not at his current or old power level will effect me in game or not. Its the complete lack of respect for my time and money I put into this game. All the hours of struggle to get my first 5* were for nothing. 4 hours a day every day for 500 days…worthless.

my main concern was diversity. Due to scaling most of the high tear players were forced to use at least one five star while playing. Oml was the one most of us had. Of course he was used the most. By making him nearly worthless you have essentially robbed us of diversity in our rosters right at the time we finally have built about 2-4 5*. Right about the time things were finally Geting fun and diverse for your elder gamers you knock us back about a year. Of course we are mad.

One of the hidden shams of all of this is that 5* gamers also make up the comannders and mentors of alliances. This game has a surprisingly rich community in line chat which drives the life blood of this game. You have essentially forces many of the people responsible for the groth of your game and community to not only quit but share our discontent with all of the people we mentor spreading a disease right to the roots of the game.

You could have done something fair to one of our most beloved characters. Instead you destroyed not only a great well working character, but also a symbol of acheivement that it’s worth it to spend money and play diligently.

If you have quit and are looking for some 3-match action Gems of War is pretty decent. It’s infinite Interactive too, so plays a lot more like the original Puzzle Quests.

It’s surprising how different it is comparatively.

Story missions unlock mini-games :-
Arena choose 4 3 characters from a selection and beat 8 missions without dying for rewards,
Challenge maps that escalate in difficulty with each clear.
Each Story area unlocks an Epic Card and new class for your hero to play.
You also invest in the story areas to unlock skills, regular gold income, and mana bonus for you hero.
You also find random treasure maps to match for gold and treasure.
All cards can be upgraded to the highest tier too, with a lot of time and play.
You can the difficulty of matches for bonus rewards

The best bit is the PVP. They have separated rewards into defensive and attack PVP. It even allows you to set your defensive team. If you successfully defend an attack you win rewards on different progression line, whilst if you lose you can retaliate for points on this separate progression line. And if you lose, you don’t lose any points - you are give gold, souls to invest in the level of cards, and a the lowest key to unlock more cards.

Getting hammered for having a cake roster could actually be a good thing.. It’s really sad how shocked and happy that made me. What are you doing I lost and you’re giving me stuff… ? If they did something similar here it really take some of the sting out of being mauled around the 900 spot.

But it does also have its drawbacks. It is less competitive because of the lack of losing points and to get near the top needs a lot of play/pvping. So most probably wouldn’t appeal to the high climbers. I find the lack of losing points thing a little boring. Part of the charm of MPQ is the dealing with the hits and stuff. Makes it more challenging and exciting somehow.

Team building is kind of fun too, as the cards interact for bonus, and have moves that interact and escalate damage/defence depending on race and class. You get banners too that play into the bonus. The trade off is the cards only have one active power.

The alliances are interesting too - you generate alliance rewards through trophies and can get them from every avenue of play. Meaning you are not forced to play anything you don’t want to. You can just play the main story and get them. And it’s pretty much picked up and play whenever you want as well - no daily timed resets. You can invest resources in them for bonuses too.

Well worth a gander if it was the match-3 or Puzzle Quest element that attracted you. If it’s the Marvel thing former MPQ players are still loving Future Fight. Hate it myself.

And yeah, the doing work thing didn’t last long.

Gems of war is quite solid. Basically original puzzle quest made freemium. My biggest complaint relative to mpq is lack of complex team building. Each troop only has a single ability, so you never have more than 4 powers in a match (some fueled by multiple colors). Mpq lets you bring skills, which makes it a bit more tactically varied.

Gems of war doesnt have pricing as aggressive as mpq, though, so there are some real advantages.

15

Most people who quit will just leave it behind, i’m a little amazed there’s so many replies to this :wink:

16

its cause we generally are heartbroken that our efforts we put not only in the game but also in the community were destroyed. New players need to know that for their efforts they will only be overlooked. Any reward you may achieve or help to achieve with a purchase hold no value.

17

Yeah, this is why I just dropped in. I’ve been on the forum for over 3 years, joined not long after I started playing. It’s actually harder saying goodbye to this place tbh.

As for the game, I’ve stopped completely and I’m enjoying getting a big chunk of my time back. Once you get off the hamster wheel, you really do notice just how much of your life it occupied.

And just for the record, I’ve quit because I cant support Demi anymore. Even just playing the game would make me feel dirty, I have no respect for them. I know that OML is still kinda usable, but that’s really not the point. They said they wouldn’t do this, ever. They let people believe that investment in the character would be honoured, that 5*s were sacrosanct…and they were lying. That’s not a business I want dealings with as a customer.

I understand the people that don’t care, I understand the people that do care but are staying, I can see all points of view. This is just the stand I’ve decided to take. It’s a shame, because I love the core mechanics, the IP, and the community…but I’m done.

Take it easy ya’ll, it’s been swell.

Where’s the sad face button instead of the LOL one? I haven’t been doing this as long as these players but that sure sums up how I feel. I didn’t quit, and won’t, but I’ve spent money and time and feel bad for anyone else who has thinking this was something better than what it is.

19

I’ve gone casual. I refuse to have this game drive my time any longer, and I will not pay another $ to them.I have plenty of RL stuff to occupy my time, and hobbies and music I could be doing instead. I’ll play an event if I feel like it. I’m sure I’ll fade from that level of play also.

I actually still enjoy the mechanics and game play, but won’t support the company any longer, based on their treatment of their players. Probably the only reason I’m playing at all is the Line community and the people I’ve met. They’ve been tremendous.

I’ve quit 3 times in the past, but I’m still here now. The reason I quit in the past is not due to changes in the game, but the time consumption of the game. I like this game, but noticeable progression requires at least 2 hrs a day, which is a huge chunk of time! I usually spend about 3 hrs a day, which is ridiculous considering the many other responsibilities that I have.

I don’t freak out or whine about game changes. I try to understand them, then accept them, then incorporate the change into my overall strategy of playing. If I don’t like playing, then I can always quit.
