Best Of

So couple of things here, first as others have said this is another experiment, like force recruitment, trying out new and novel ways to make interesting limited time content like our side quests which pretty much everyone agrees had gotten a bit stale/boring. So gotta try out new things and tweak and improve. As for dev resources, the nice thing about these two new modes is that the impact was relatively minor and just not having them would not have impacted the issues in other modes the way you might think. Its not a one to one stop doing this and focus on that.

Ultimately the core of MCOC is a game we love and we're not moving away from it, we just want to add fun new ways to engage with the game in addition to that core.

I’ve really been enjoying these side games that have out of the ordinary mechanics to them. Dimensional Arcade especially brings me back to the flash games I used to play while pretending like I was paying attention in class.

I do think that it seems over-aggressively monetized. To get all of the rewards, you need to clear the story (8 entry tokens) and clear shatter mode 25 times (25 more entry tokens). That’s a total of 33. The tokens refresh every 24 hours. Is that three per day or only one? If it’s three, that’s not terrible. If it’s only one… that’s not good.

I discovered the hard way that it is extremely easy to accidentally exit mid run because of the big X button on the top of the screen. There also needs to be a way to review the perks you’ve picked up mid run. I took one that gave me a “random rare drop,” but I had no way of learning what that drop was. Not ideal.

Anyway, I really enjoy it. I could see myself sinking real time into a silly mode like this. But it’s got a *lot* of rough edges right now in need of smoothing.

Three free entries per day.

I have fought about 30 battlegrounds matches this season. EVERY SINGLE ONE I EITHER FOUGHT ONSLAUGHT, ENCHANTRESS OR BULLSEYE. Usually more than one of them and often all 3.
There is zero fun to be had. You just need to hope that the computer allows you to pick a counter for the same **** fights over and over again.
But if that's not enough. Every single account I go up against is somehow stacked with R3 and R4 7 stars. No matter what level I'm on. Diamond 5, you're going up against a stacked account. Platinum, stacked account. There seems to be no limit to these stacked accounts and even if you fight perfectly you simply lose because you take longer to win the fight because the health pool of your opponent is triple yours.
Now I know a lot of these accounts are cheating and no matter how much Kabam says they've gotten rid of a bunch of cheater accounts, they don't seem to have the capability to get rid of all of them or even most of them.
So just call it a day Kabam and fold this God awful game mode. NO ONE ENJOYS IT. We just play it because it's basically the only way we can get T4A and rank up our champs. Please Kabam figure out a different way to get people to spend money that isn't such a waste of time on everyone else.

This is coming from a Valient player. I'm not coming from a small account that just can't hang.
I have less than 100 quests till I'm finished act 9 and I can quit this game knowing I finished it. I can't wait for that day because this game sucks but we're all addicted.
