    Exclamation February's Epic Boss

    Hey everyone,

    You might have noticed that this month's Epic Boss has been removed from the event schedule. It has not been cancelled; it has been pushed back. Keep an eye on the event schedule for updates.

    Thank you!

    Hi Relic,

    Anymore information about the Epic Boss?
    1. Still 100 Bosses?
    2. Health increases?
    3. Days to beat boss, staying the same?

    Thanks

    I don't have any additional information right now, but I'll post here if I do.

    Spiderman, to answer your third question, it changes every event, it can vary from 6 to 3 days, which is pretty annoying. It was 6 days for a reason, 10% syn goal modifier and an extra if you miss one.

    If you want to shrink the event duration add speed goals, those were awesome and would be cool to see them back

    Thanks mate. Indeed, I forgot about that part of Epic Boss. Would be nice to see it again. Happy gaming mate.

    I fully expect the developer to screw the pooch on the epic boss, as they have done with raid boss and other events lately. If you want to see what a FUBAR epic boss event looks like take a gander at modern war. Not looking forward to the "exciting" epic boss event.

    Epic boss has been killed in KA and MW. Instead of incrimental increase in boss health to match stat inflation they've opted for the big wallop increase in both those other games. They skipped a cycle becsuse they needed the extra time to bioengineer the boss super strength.

    That's what 1Shot should have said instead of giving out misinformation about Raid Boss. Who has closed more threads between you two?

    MW was worse for me . Last epic boss I got to level 70 only using free hits , this boss I'm on level 23 and it takes me 12 hits .

    Relic said this thread was stickied. Forgot/couldn't be bothered to take 10 seconds, or lied. Either way, it's a glaring example of how often and easily Gree will say one thing and do another.

    ...or it's an honest mistake because I'm human.

    That's what sucks. Last time in MW I could go right through to 150 with just one hit - free or cash, this time it took 15 cash hits to knock down 150th. At least I could still finish though.

    Gree said on the MW forum that participation in epic boss was on the low side. A massive health boost is hardly the way to encourage players who aren't doing the event to get in there. Rather, they've decided to write them (and other lower stat players) off and squeeze the rest for cash. A bit like when 250s got crunched here.

    I don't know why GREE needs any more feedback. They have at least 3 game platforms that they have implemented the same changes. Do they think that the outrage and reduced participation experienced with KA and MW would be different in CC? Its not like they didn't stagger the rollouts so could see the problems before they hot to CC. Stupid is doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result.
    Did they need to implement the accomplices in CC after what happened on the other platforms?

    Bottomline is they made a financial decision. Get more from a section while marginalizing the rest. Not sure if that strategy will work but they doubled down on that. My impression, by looking at the top earning apps, is that their revenue is based on a very broad base of support. Time will tell if this strategy works for GREE.
