These look amazing. Well done kabam.

Pemula

can u elaborate more about alliance event ?? Is it kind of the more alliance member active in battleground, the more point we get ? and the higher rank we will placed at the end of season ?

Lvernon15

This looks great, really looking forward to it

blackdragonight

These rewards are nuts but what about the cheaters in BG I can already see the people being frustrated.

ChuckD05

Damn lol top 500 is nice. Gonna be cut throat. The rich will get richer ! That’s for sure 😬

ChuckD05

Is there anyway to get trophy tokens outside of season end rank ? Both for alliance and personnel ranking ?

Will we get any as we win matches ?

Beewee

Seems to reward more for playing than actually winning. Will there be titles for top finishers on the leaderboard?

“Supreme Celestial Being” or something along those lines would be a sick title for reaching number one in celestial rank

GrassKnuckles

Very exciting

Kind of disappointing that the event rankings are determined by just spamming as many matches as possible and have nothing to do with how well you actually do in them

The rewards all look great, although I am worried about time commitment to this mode. As I understand it (and I could absolutely be wrong), it requires 45 wins just get onto the Gladiator’s Circuit, and that will reset seasonally? If it takes 8 minutes on average from starting matchmaking to completion of a match, that’s 6 hours of game time assuming you win every single match. And that’s just the grind to access the grind of the leaderboard and ranked rewards.

It’s okay if this is a grind-heavy mode. That’s not new to the game, and I’m sure a lot of players are totally cool with that. But it’s worth highlighting that gold and units, the other materials that require time-intensive grinding to accumulate, are not present here. That means that a player looking to play this new mode remotely competitively will have to add this grind on top of the arena grind they likely participate in to pay for ranking the champions they use in Battlegrounds. It’s… it’s a lot.

I love Battlegrounds and the rewards look great. I just hope that there are enough hours in the day to actually enjoy this mode and not feel like it’s a slog.

Good rewards brings out some that aren't let's say honest, so any action plan to prevent or at least limit?

sleimon

Arena 2.0 lol

Ultimatheory

There should be a limit on daily points gained towards solo and alliance events just from matchmaking. Any additional points should be performance based only. Otherwise we’ll see players/alliances just spamming energy refills to gain points. It would be exactly against the spirit of the mode

It says we get 650 every 2 days from Objectives, if that helps.

Over all I love it I do have a concern that The cost just to play by yourself might turn some people off, but besides that I love everything else

I think the rewards are all backwards. The majority of the rewards are for solo objective scoring or alliance scoring which heavily favors just playing (or spamming energy refills, picking your champs and quitting out) vs actually having to win.

The actual rank rewards are very minimal compared to the solo event. Please considering revising the rewards and putting the majority in for being the best player not for “playing” a million matches. You are seeing the game mode up for serious abuse from mercs and modders will will just spam as many matches as possible. At the very least just change the scoring so Instead of 200 points for a win and 1250 for a match, it’s 200 points for a match and 1250 for a win!

Honestly just sounds terrifying.

Rewards aside. How much time you expect us to play this mode on a single day, across multiple days in a row for an entire month? Player's don't have time for yet another one of these, unless you want us to be spending on every game mode to get it done quickly (which you do) and be able to get it immediately without actually having to play the game, working, farming for it for hours and hours. I was hoping this was more of a chill mode like incursions where rewards would just refresh every once in a while and were not rank dependant. Not this trash with rank focus rewards.

And were's the cap at the number of matches per day? Where's the cap of poins gained per a limited timeframe? Funny that you even say we can buy an "unlimited amount of entries for Units". What were the betas for? What was all the feedback for? Who even asked for this?

As someone else said, this is just arena all over again. Just another P2W money grabbing game mode.
This better just be another beta in disguise, cause this is just riddiculous

I don't changing the number of points per match will affect modding that much. But yeah, this setup seems like an arena style competition

Savage123456789

Does that mean the gladiator's circuit is mostly for bragging rights (I know there are tokens given that can be used in the stores, still...) and any account can theoretically get top prize in the solo events as long as they play a lot of matches, win or lose, to rack up points?

TimeGenesis

i think its a bit brave of Kabam to have a master loadout going straight to live witbout beta.
Not being pessimistic but I can see this being bugged from the start

Can’t you just kinda.. do as much as you want?

I mean, let’s say that they cut every milestone in half. So there’s only half as much content. That might be a good amount for you, so you go that far. But what about someone who wants to play more? What about someone who loves the mode?

The extra rewards on top mean there’s longevity in the mode. You don’t only need to do 2 hours a month like with incursions to get top zone bonuses. You can play to your hearts content and still get rewards.

I’m not saying that it’s definitely going to be that way, and that casual play will feel rewarding, but how do you know that it won’t be?

You now have the option to play as much as you want, and if the majority of people don’t feel it’s worth the time - well, it’s subject to change and that feedback can be given. But I think it’s a bit preemptive to say how terrible it is already.

Surely it’s better to add 150% of the ideal amount of time that you would want to spend, than to add 50%? In one, you can still spend as much time as you want and not run out, in the other, you run out.

Besides, you call any piece of new content P2W now, so it’s a kinda boy who cried wolf vibes.

Shame this information had to be released on the Friday before it starts. It almost ensures that there is zero time to get feedback and be able to tune how these rewards are implemented. Sort of deflates so much of the excitement I was feeling earlier about this. There seems to be less competitive nature now which seemed to central to what this mode was designed for

Savage123456789

How much do the elder's masks cost? The blog mentions buying with tokens, but I didn't see it in the store list

That could easily be solved with a similar system to incursions. Play as much as you want, but the rewards (at least the decent ones) are capped per week/month.

This current system is unrealistic to someone who plays the game as a whole. You either dedicate your life to this single game mode and get the mid brackets of it, or spend on it to get the top rewards, as well as spending on everything else to accomodate the time missed on the other game modes.

This is like arena heavy grind, but for an entire month and always constantly spending units.

We're always collecting feedback, but with this being the first season, unless something is egregious, it's unlikely to change anything until the next season starts. Keep the feedback coming, but just know that we want to try this out for at least one season.

1 main complaint is amount of wins to get to gladiator circuit and the energy cost associated with that.
