Mobile game developer behind "Marvel Strike Force" funding YouTuber's account on live server without disclosure

Posted: 17 Jul 2018 01:11 PM PDT

I don't know if this will gain any traction but I will try to make this as clear as possible for non-players.

Marvel Strike Force is a mobile RPG game based on Marvel superheroes from FoxNext. Recently the level cap was raised from 60 to 65. The only way to earn XP is to play missions using energy, and so most people haven't even hit level 61 yet. But a YouTuber by the name of KnightlyGaming somehow hit 65 and was at the top of the leaderboard before even the most prolific whales. Many were raising questions about how this was possible and he responded with this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI8gRe08AkY (Video deleted, mirror: https://streamable.com/ob8r2)

In this video, he shows that he has 257,000 energy stored, a number well beyond normal amounts given that paying premium currency for energy only gives you 120 energy. He discloses that this is a result of him actually being an employee of the developer FoxNext, and they gave him a big chunk of resources so that he could better advertise the game. The problem is, he has never disclosed that he was an employee creating paid promotions for the last sixth months until now. (Which I believe is against Google's YouTube policy, please inform me) The playerbase over at /r/MarvelStrikeForce is currently livid about this, because this YouTuber's account is on the live server and outcompeting other paying players. The YouTuber also says "In hindsight, I should have curbed that usage a little bit, so as to not raise eyebrows" expressing that he is really only sorry about being caught.

Essentially, FoxNext is boosting a YouTuber in exchange for advertising, without any disclosure from the YouTuber and he is competing against other paying customers.

I hope I was able to provide a decent explanation that will make sense to non-players.

UPDATE:

The original video was deleted. Marvel contacted him telling him to delete the video because in the original video it sounded too much like he was an actual Marvel employee. This is the original video: https://streamable.com/ob8r2

He has uploaded a new video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr_npZmKe68) in which he corrects himself as not being an employee but a paid influencer. He is also going to be hidden from the leaderboard. This is my opinion here - this doesn't address the issue. He is still taking a spot in the "blitz" mode where you compete with the rest of the playerbase for rewards, and competing with players in his arena pool.

This is also the top comment on the new video: "KnightlyGaming is a strictly positive community and personal attacks and accusations in the comments will be deleted and the account banned. Thank you."
