Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
Honestly I really like the concept, and I enjoy the style of the fight. Take out as much hp as you can before the time runs out; but I dislike having to lvl up the podiums, I’m willing to keep trying to get a better run, but I don’t want to have to keep grinding it after I have a satisfactory score just to lvl up the podium.
The podium lvl system needs some tweaking, after that I think it will be a very fun mode.
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
+1 on scrapping the level up mechanic on podiums.
Rest of the game mode feels really cool, loving that the tags are just bonus points but we aren't forced to follow them. Overall great idea, needs just a couple adjustments
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
This has good potential, but it is way overcomplicated with the tags, multipliers, two different scoring / lvling systems for each of the 5 spots. It seems like Kabam overcomplicates a lot of new game modes, (see Raids!).
For developers and sweats like me, it's not too hard to understand after studying it for a few hours. So you might think "wdym Sambob this isn't complicated". Well, it really is and the other 29 guys in my alliance have no clue what is going on. Some don't even understand how we get rewards from this.
It is also way too grindy. The leveling system on podiums should be scrapped entirely or massively reworked. I know this is how you are trying to monetize it, but we shouldn't have to grind out the fight over and over and over. The only reason anyone should be replaying a fight is to try and get a better score. That SHOULD be the entire point of a game mode like this, not just one aspect.
Overall the concept of blasting through health bars is incredibly fun, so I hope this game mode can be perfected. It often seems like new game modes are released and never majorly adjusted for improvements and they are mechanically identical years and years after their release. I hope that isn't the case this time.
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
Same. Not a fan of this type of content. I’d rather do arenas for units than the same fight again and again hopeing that my fingers don’t make a mistake that is basically the end of the fight on ‘hard’.
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
I thought I would like this. I don't, and now wish for AQ back too (which I also detest).
Re: Coliseum Strategy
This summer was truly insane with how many things were running concurrently
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
When u think its not possible to make something more boring and stupid than AQ…
Kabam: hołd my beer
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
Giant waste of time. This is seriously worse than AQ.
Re: Alliance Coliseum - is a massive, massive time suck
I really don't get this, i have to do the same fight that is time boxed for 7 minutes, just for me to timeout to "level up" my podium…lets say it takes me 5 tries to get to podium level 2…i have to do that for 3 podiums that's about 105 minutes that I have spent just to get around 1.5 million points (500k or so for each podium)…really this isn't fun
