Best Of

Is the team radio silent right now? There have been some very good and relevant suggestions and discussions in forums recently and no communication. There’s also still unaddressed bugs. Here’s an overview from last 2 weeks to this week:

Unaddressed:
- If you didn’t wait to claim the twitch drops until after the event started, you didn’t get the points
- Still no cumulative comp the team was “discussing”
- No news on Titania (wasted r3/r4s with the AI). Still whiffing hits on SP1 as well.
- AI is probably the worst it’s ever been (at least I can intercept now) by holding specials until debuffs fall off, etc. It’s almost as if they react to what’s in their kit/counters and it’s learning. But it should never be to the point of unregistered hits landing and then after the second one AI throws a special to the face…
- Lack of mysterium for first two weeks of crossover
- QOL request pertaining battle groups (they seem to be just suggestions at the moment)

Not asking for all the answers, but some insight/acknowledgement from the team would be nice. Even just a blanket statement saying “we hear you as a player base”.

"If you didn’t wait to claim the twitch drops until after the event started, you didn’t get the points"

• This was addressed. We will be comping the points.
  

"No news on Titania (wasted r3/r4s with the AI). Still whiffing hits on SP1 as well."

• Wasted is a very, very, very strong word here.
  Her Special 1 is still whiffing, I'll poke on that one, but in general there are many cases resulting from 60 FPS where this is happening, and an overall fix is being worked on, this has been on Trello and addressed many times.
  

The AI bit

• I don't exactly understand what clarity you're asking for on this one, in any case, the AI is not "learning." If you elaborate further I might be able to provide more context.
  

"Lack of mysterium for first two weeks of crossover"

• Mysterium has been addressed multiple times. It wasn't around for 1 week in the build, and the quantities were increased in the latter weeks. The discontent for the Mysterium shift has been passed along to the team.
  

QOL request pertaining battle groups

• I will also need more specificty here if you want something addressed regarding Battlegroups.
  

1. Saw pin’s comment on that. Must’ve got buried. Sorry about that one!
2. Intimidate isn’t working as intended. Something has changed for sure. I probably could’ve combined the AI point into this as well. As soon as you throw the SP3…in the wise words of another forum guy, “Watch the magic happen”. Like another said in this thread, deep dive says otherwise.
3. For AI, what was stated above. Silk was fixed, but somehow using titania becomes tough. For further example, defenders like red skull hold block and won’t throw specials for minutes at a time. This can be worked around a little bit by hitting into block…but you can’t do that for red skull. For USING champs like ham and spiderwoman, after applying power stings, AI will hold off on throwing specials until right after they expire. Sometimes I swear taunt doesn’t even work. These are just a couple examples. There’s multiple throughout different kits and matchups.
4. I see that now. Sorry. Still feel like there was definitely a small decrease.
5. Made a dedicated post here. A toggle/selectable setting in alliance menu that allowed you to LOCK people to the battle group you assign them to would be so nice to have. Right now it feels more like a suggestion than an assignment seeing as anyone can hop in anywhere. Would also be helpful to have different battle group assignments for raids/AQ vs. War as we have diff players that have different strong suits and they go on at the same time. https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/399666/qol-change-can-we-please-make-battlegroups-lock-alliance-members-to-certain-maps

Someone give me a reason why moleman would get a rank down ticket but Titania wouldn’t. Moleman still has several useful aspects… Titania is now nerfed into the ground.

Moleman and shocker were different, their abilities were changed so they became weaker as a result.

Having the inability to complete the damage loop as advertised which worked for a while and now simply doesn’t seems to qualify. And if I recall… moleman’s abilities actually were set to how they were supposed to be but he was benefiting due to a bug. So his abilities weren’t changed. he got a rank down ticket though because everyone was using him and ranking him due to his additional ability to have the evade counter up all the time.

Titania can’t complete her main damage loop and now just takes SP3’s in the face if she tries. If moleman got one for getting tweaked to match what his abilities were supposed to be…. How can Titania not get a rank down ticket for not being able to use her abilities anymore?
