Alpha tokens why so tight and expensive ?

ThanosOfTitan

25 radios for an alpha call and not even 2x tokens ? And she is the star hero too. Wow NG

Stalker20

Won't be spending any of my radios for sure.

Billbam

Too expensive for ANY hunter...I can wait. Although it is 50% chance on the call so there is a carrot.

TWDaddiction

Yep 50% is what will get people throwing radios out but stop to realize it’s 50% less than The amount from the x2 calls we’re used to getting here on the other heroes. And 10 radios more expensive lol

Then they threw in one less charge point for the week to blind those facts. Very Well done NG I applaud your marketing there.

I’ll personally be saving my radios. Patience is a virtue for those x2 calls

Firekid

Not mine unfortunately!

Firekid

I wouldn’t mind if it was on a Wednesday when I could actually get some phones!

Troublemaker

This call is the biggest scam ever. It's even worse than old 10-radio calls.

EDIT: it's not worse. Still a scam though.

ThanosOfTitan

@Firekid how many radios that cost you ?

ignas

6 calls result in having here legendary. It’s true that it is not doubled and cost 25 but with 50% you get it almost in every call. In those 6 calls, 2 calls were 3xAlpha

Not so bad call in the end.

McKnife

Burned nearly 600 radios 1 256 only

MFJigsaw

Mane these business strategies can be such a let down.....




Quite a low point for this game at the moment.

"Anything on the horizon??"

"Soon?"

"Huge Update?"


Please add some clarification to the terms "soon" and "huge".

Let me be absolutely clear here.
We are being fleeced.

Star Hero is a joke, some people havent even unlocked her (not me but they must feel missing out)

Firekid

It’s not actually that bad a call. With the double calls I’ve rolled 4-5 times with no tokens and got 1 64 on my 6th. So that’s 90 for 64 tokens whereas much more likely to get 128 for 100 phones with this one. Basically it’s about the same I’d say. Just wish I had some phones to prove it!

Firekid

@ThanosOfTitan i didn’t spend any phones as I said, it’s not my alpha unfortunately.

Stalker20

When I commented above I hadn't read the 50% chance of tokens, that's actually pretty good, my Alpha is legendary now 😂

ShadowWalker

It's better than the crappy Hero Fest calls I thought NG was going to hide her in. I used all the radios I have been saving, 950, and got all her traits to lv 5. It's actually a pretty solid call, and while I would've waited for a double call who knows when that would be (probably next week ) .

JLC

I spent 325 radio on 13 calls. Got 32 nine times, 128 twice, 256 once = 800 total. That’s an average of 61.5 tokens per call, or 2.46 tokens per radio. That’s on par or better than most double calls for me personally. I’m happy.

ThanosOfTitan

It’s better than I thought and I started the post lol I spent 500 radios and got her to legendary I will save the rest of my radios though

WellyLuga

It is a really solid call. The 25 radio cost is a bit off putting at first but the odds are really nice, I made about 25 calls and only had one where I didn't get Alpha tokens. 600 radios got me about 1100 tokens, better than the usual 15 single call we get for news heroes.

AchillesV

This Alpha call gives you less tokens per radio than regular 2x calls, but surely this is to be expected on her very first call.

WellyLuga

Agreed, I mean we had to wait for like 6 months before the alt heroes were given a double call and that didn't stop people spending a tonne of radios on them

Jaden

I spent between 300 to 350 radios on my accounts to get her from epic to legendary, so about 1000 phones in total.

Over 3 accounts I only had 1 green goblin, 2 epics, 1 legendary survivor. The rest was Alpha tokens.

Can't complain, really.

LoneWanderer360

Around 750 tokens for 275 radios.

Not terrible.

jrodrf2

Only scrounged up enough radios for one call. Got a rare, epic, and legendary survivor. My mistake for spending all my radios this weekend on SR and HD. Had I known there'd be an Alpha call... I would have still spent the radios on HD and SR.

Johnbert

Call is way (!) too expensive. 25 radios and not even a double call. Yes, 50% chance of getting Alpha tokens. Doesn't matter. And it's a hunter, against high level walkers it's all about melee anyway. No, I'll wait for the 2x call, even though it might takes another few months.

RealClareB

Spent about 400 phones. Managed to unlock her and get her to legendary. Managed to get at least 32 every call with 128 x 7.

Billdinger

Love the timing NG calculates for the first Alpha call.....Run it over the course of 2 days where no gameplay radios can be collected other than the 10 from Season mission. No radios for the Distance. No events to gather radios on "Wasted Tuesdays" other than shooting random walkers outside your walls and the other small chance radio grabs.

I'm not falling for it, NG. I refuse to buy a bundle to get this weeks new "Star Hero" to 5 star. The proper thing to do would have been to run it beginning Wednesday so we could gather radios from our Guilds, but there is no money in that for NG. Get ready for 4 days of 40 radio "Hero Fests" right after this.

Daiiko

"Les jetons Alpha, pourquoi si serrés et chers?" Pour vous ruminer mes cobayes 😈... Raaalala ce NG

DrPsychedelic

I'm not sure what the problem is. I got multiple 128 tokens and Alpa is now one upgrade from pink star.
