Are you still playing / enjoying Battlegrounds?

I am in P4/G1 ally and have the impression (after initial excitement) that it is slowly dying on most of the ally members.
So curious, if it is just us or if it is generally like this?

I'm not competitive enough to enjoy it.

I love it. Maybe they will add tiers so people with less developed rosters won’t have to face veterans rocking beefy 6s rosters.

IMO the cheaters only impact the leaderboard in a significant way. Just keep the board as it is — not tied to rewards — and maybe they’ll lose the incentive to hack the game?

I played it a lot the first round of this cycle. Only played 2 milestones the second rounds. And haven`t done a single run this round. A mode where I can only win if I change around my mastery setup at high unit cost. With very slow arena grinding as a result is not worth it to me.
I also get very frustrated while doing it. But that has more to do with my skill level

I played it a little bit at first. Have not touched it this time around. Don't plan to either. Too many cheaters and nothing being done. Plus it takes too much time getting through a round. I work 10 hours a day, have a family, and need to find time to work out. All of that is more important than the game.

Nope. I skipped this beta when they added recharge costs. It's fun and I like it, but seeing them add that then having it bugged so it said one gold was just not it for me

I don't have a diverse enough roster to adapt to different nodes and balance a team with high level defenders and offenders

InsaneSkull

I play BG only when i have nothing else/want to do with quest energy. forfeit and give wins.

i'm not enjoy playing BG,but i play it anyway because of the rewards. it takes far too much time and energy (all types of energy) to earn all the points. i wish it could have been a milestone rewards like incursions instead of the 5 wins every time to get points.
for me it feels like a stressful grind and not like a fun mode, but the rewards are good so i think this is a fair trade.

Is hard to call it playing, most fight is finished by running away by me or opponent. 90% of my "Fights" was finished like that

OGAvenger

I enjoy the game mode a lot but I don’t play it every day or go for maxed rewards. It still needs some tweaks but the game mode is a lot of fun

Thomildo

Yes, think it’s really enjoyable! Play it a bit, but not for max rewards. I have been claiming the 1500 chunks before the week resets tho.

Aldac

Still playing but in all honesty I really hate the Bubble Shield/Limber meta this week. It’s by far the most unenjoyable.

World Eater

I enjoy it more than most other game modes, but a little confused why there is such a large energy cost. We don’t have an entry fee to play incursions or any other game mode. Scrap it; we have recharge costs for champs. That’s enough

Guytennis

Lost interest fast. Too much energy required.

Etm34

Very very infrequently. The battlegrounds store units (whatever they’re called) take too long to acquire for those who aren’t constantly grinding the mode. The objectives reset too quickly for those who have a life outside of BG. And the matchups are all generally the same every time. Same defenders and attackers for those with ranked rosters.

It got boring and grindy before it’s even officially released

Polygon

Cant miss rewards

Jaded

The 30 wins is a bit much overall imo kills the mode over playing it

IvarTheBoneless

Costs way too much. In that I mean time needed to get all objectives and the energy cost that comes with it.

Cynchotic

Nope! I’m barely playing any of the game, at this point…still log on here and there and still seeing my champs doing w/e they please. What I don’t understand is why there isn’t another game, any game, whatsoever, with this style of fighting…why does kabam (MCOC) hold the entire corner of this? I can fall in love with different types of characters, but fighting in this style (not just pushing a button to actually fight), does kabam own the complete rights to this?

40 signature stones in a month, of course BG is worth it.

I have a pretty decent roster and I love competitive games too. So I enjoy a lot.

Greekhit

I play them since there is still no new monthly event quest.
But I ain’t sure if I’ll keep on doing them if the energy requirements and wins needed to reach the objectives remain the same.
Reducing energy cost per match to 10 (or even 5 if Kabam feels generous), and reducing wins needed for each milestone to 3 instead of 5, will make them more energy viable.
If they release them as they are now, the mode will sooner or later have the Incursions fate, unless they ante up the rewards to justify the insane energy cost.

GrandOldKai

I never tried it.

PvP just doesn't click well with me for some reason .

Ironman3000

I still play but don't really enjoy them. Basically better arenas.

Ercarret

Yeah, I love it. After exploring Act 7, I don't really have anything to spend my energy on anyway so that hurdle isn't a hindrance to me personally.

I really, really enjoy trying to find the ideal counters to both the champions that are thrown at you and the nodes themselves. It does feel like everyone at my level brings about the same 30 champions (or at least 20-25 out of 30) every time, so I hope future nodes switch things up somewhat and encourage/discourage more champions.

But regardless, it's a very fun meta. Not only do I enjoy the fights themselves, I also find them very informative. I've gotten much better at fighting some high-level champions and found some unexpected MVPs that have hit way above what I thought their weight was. It is, in some ways, a sort of competitive training ground that allows you to hone your skills vs the most difficult defenders in the game. That's awesome! It'll probably be super useful when new content is released eventually.

It has also given me something to work towards in terms of roster building. With most endgame content done, I don't really have anything that I need to rank up champions for. BG changes that. I can rank up my champions in order to meet my BG needs, and that's quite welcome.

I actually migrated to MCOC from Injustice.

There's a wide world of gaming out there, and I play MCOC not because it is the only thing I know, but because I've played a lot of games, and while MCOC has its problems it is still the one I want to play.

I cannot imagine playing a game I don't want to play, just because there's no alternative. There is always an alternative. There is always hundreds of them. And I'm probably only aware of 1% of them.

I thought I would enjoy these nodes the most, but I apparently stink at them. Dropped 250 points without forfeitting.
