    Street Assault Indy Prizes

    It was brought to my attention that the Indy prizes are not stackable in Street Assault. Checked my inventory and sure enough I have 2 Assault Streakers that comes with +5% Explosive Defence modifier. Checking my bonuses and only of one the prizes counts on the modifier. Sorry but this is total BS, consistent players will mostly come in roughly the same tier reward on this event so basically will not get a Indy modifier if they land in the same tier.
    dumbest thing ever having the same prizes for Street Assaults at least change the names.

    The same is happening to me.
    I opened a ticket request (#2175158).
    I finished the individual part of Street Assault in the top 3000 because I wanted the 8% Melee Defense Bonus.
    But Ben Scott from Gree is telling me that I already had that prize so this one is not stackable.
    Well, what is the point of playing individual Street Assault if you are not going to give us the prize we won?

    Yep, I already received a couple of generic reply...

    My 3rd email is this:

    The Event Street Assault has SYND Prizes AND INDIVIDUAL Prizes.
    You promove this event with all these prizes with BONUSES.
    There were absolutly NO indication that I would not get my Individual Prize Bonus
    because I already had a similar prize.

    If at the end of the event you are NOT going to give me the prize I won
    THEN you are cheating and the prizes you advertise are false.

    Waiting for a reply from Gree

    It's fraudulent and false advertising. It's says you get in this rank you get this prize and modifier.
    There is no mention if you have the prize already the modifier will not be rewarded.
    From now on I will just manipulate my rank to make sure I don't land in a tier with a prize I already have, which IMO is BS you shouldn't have to play events like that

    It's not false advertising, nor is it fraudulent.

    Yep Weasel, Gree can do anything he wants.

    But it looks bad when you get a big splash screen that says you have won a prize and then it's not true.
    And then they start with stupid excuse on why you didn't get that prize
    (In the second email Ben Scott told me because they are trying to slow down stat inflation... LOL)

    All I pointed out was the non-stacking of some duplicated modifiers does not constitute fraud or false advertising. Is it still a scumbag move? Absolutely!

    It reminds me of going to the carnival and seeing all the "games of skill" with the huge stuffed toys for prizes. Those are the only prizes on display, so it's not an unreasonable assumption to think if you win, that's what you get. Of course, there is a sign hidden somewhere that indicates you have to win 10 small prizes before you can trade them in for the big one, and those worthless prizes are all kept out of sight.

    As for slowing down stat inflation, that's a real gem of an excuse. That's like going on avalanche patrol, intentionally starting an avalanche, and then going half way down the mountain to try slowing it down. You could do that, sure, but it would be an incredibly stupid thing to even consider.

    Here the email I got from Ben Scott:

    ....
    There are still some items with stacking boosts currently available, but we are working towards phasing them out of the game. Moving forward, individual tier rewards will not stack as a general rule. While we understand stacking bonuses are very desirable, they are potentially game breaking. Their use needs to be carefully managed to control stat inflation effects and the overall power balance of the game.

    We may still release rewards with certain types of stacking bonuses at our discretion, but their availability will be rare.
    ....

    So, Event with Individual Prizes with bonus are just fake....
    You spend gold to get in a certain tier to win a prize with a bonus and Gree is not giving you the bonus...
    Nice to know

    That is exactly the same reply I got off Ben word for word.
