Rookiie Tuesday: Random Thoughts

RookiieRookiie Posts: 4,814 β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…
Dear forums,

Since our last random ramble, this is what is mainly going through my mind:

1) I did not pull any of the 6-stars that I was chasing from the featured. Instead, I duped my Deadpool X-Force.
So I took my 6-star Human Torch (sig 20) to R3, and Captain Marvel (sig 200), Namor (sig 162) and Tigra (sig 33) to R5.
It's good for now and I have a Cosmic T5CC and 98% of a Tech T5CC in my inventory. Which brings me to my second point.

2) Who's excited for Nimrod? I really want a meta-defining Tech champion that is not Ghost to hit the game. I wonder whether it's worth it to go for the early access bundles, but I've got bang average luck so it might be wiser to save my $. Even though I really want a Tech champ. Do you think Nimrod will be meta-defining? Will his niche be to Mutants what Torch is to Mystics?

3) A lot of what is advertised on other Marvel video games is centered around the Avengers. Take Realm of Champions or Future Revolution as examples. Now, I know that the OGs were used to introduce beginners to the game, but they are sorely outdated. To add to this point, beginners are now chasing meta defining champions much quicker than before. Wouldn't it be nice for Kabam to accelerate endgame buffs and synergies for the champions that brought so many of us here?

4) Lastly, that Spiderman Teaser Trailer was sick. I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I would love for the Spider Verse, Avengers and Guardians to be as present as the Mutants in the meta. Wouldn't that be nice?

5) On a different note, I think we've been complaining too much lately. Sure, Kabam have been messing up left, right and center. Parry & dex issues, drop rates, late roadmap and whatnot. But we're all still here aren't we? We all love this game and even though our interest has been waning, I'm sure they'll come through in the last quarter. A new variant, the Chronoserpent, the next chapter in Act 7, Cyber Monday deals, some well known champions and Epoch shards are all coming our way. Maybe even some roadmap surprises. So, hold on tight folks!

As usual, feel free to ramble below.

Regards,
Rookiie

    I deeply enjoy and appreciate the positive aspects of this game and it has been a part of my life enough to feel like losing a loved one if the game goes under. As sad as that would be, I'll just have to move on if it actually happens.

    I really hope it wouldn't.

    Kabam has the capability to address the existing and persistent bugs and issues in the game. I wish they'd just prioritize and focus on that, even if it meant putting the buffs and the rest of the roadmap on hold. As suspicious as some of those seem to be, we'll forgive and forget all of them as long as they're taken care of properly and for good.

    Please please PLEASE do not have this mindset, it sounds incredibly unhealthy. This is a mobile video game alright, just know that the world will still move on if the game ever does go under

    1) Me neither, oh well

    2) I’d be more excited if 95% of the champs this year weren’t incredibly horrible, but he definitely looks cool

    3) Yes please, I want to use OG DD and SIM in content so much, but I can’t

    4) Oh yeah, it wad awesome. I don’t think the guardians will ever be as present as any of those groups, because it’s just not large enough.

    5) I really, really wish I could agree here. I’ve loved the game for 6.5 years.
    But… this is probably the worst year for champs ever, nearly every single update that dropped this year had a ton of bugs that broke the game, and at the moment you can barely even use one of the game’s core mechanics, which has been broken for months. Not to mention that literally every cav deal we’ve had this month has had the wrong drop rates.
    It all just gets to a point where you can’t just give them the benefit of the doubt anymore. I’ve already nearly stopped playing fully apart from summoner appreciation. Hopefully they get it together soon though, because I really want to keep playing.

    Agree with 2) and 5).
    The champions this year have been nothing short of disappointing, save for two or three.
    Even the buffs haven't been so great. We've seen many disappointments already.
    It's not a great year for sure.
    But I'm certain they'll bounce back.

    Wouldn't necessarily trust your predications considering you also predicted a Sentry buff like 7 months in a row, and failed each time...

    2. I have little hope for a meta defining champion. Kabam always wants to keep the champions not broken unfortunately. We've had two amazing champs, Shang and Herc, but I'm not sure this advanced sentinel will fit the ticket.

    3. I hope they have a big avengers rework party over 2-3 months. Make some bangers.

    4. Loved the trailer, don't feel the need.

    5. I agree. We complain a lot. We're not going to have a perfect, smooth game all the time. It's just how it goes. As they add more to the game things just get bugs and its just patch after patch. I would love for them to just take a week (yes thats a ton of time I know) and fix it up. Big maintenance, maybe make a whole new server. Idk what needs to be done but as someone who doesn't know anything about developing I think Kabam should tear down and rebuild, as opposed to continuously renovating. They did say they wanted to face life the contest, finding a way to eliminate bugs would be nice. As always, new content is great, just wish it lasted longer. Excited to see the outraged/praising posts to be made about 7.3 rewards.

    Alongside Guillotine, ensuring that he only gets a value or moderate buff? Is this really the call you want to be making?

    A moderate update like Kingpin or Bishop wouldn't be so bad for him tbh.

    Thank you everyone.
    I'll take number 5 please and thank you @Scarcity27.
    Hehe fat chance @The_Sentry06, as much as I'd love to see him get buffed it's not happening anytime soon.
    Unfortunately it's a basic crystal @TheBair123, so Jabari won't be in there (unless she's in the basic and I don't know about it?).
    Tearing down and rebuilding wouldn't be a great idea in my opinion @DawsMan, I do think they can get this back up soon. It's IT at the end of the day, if everything is going right then something must be wrong. And yes, a rework party for the Avengers is in order ☺️

    Vulture does have a synergy with Sentry, so I was kinda close with my guess. :)
