😂 I really hope the feedback about BGs being stale is making it to somebody because while it’s a bit better for Valiant players it also seems like it’s gonna be outta date in a season.
Looks like I will only spend my Marks till Vibranium and just because I got to the max amount of 'em, BGs was supposed to be the main thing to do on MCOC, and was going to have updates more often, but not only those arent as often, not as good neither, but they became as boring to do as Incursions; so I think this will be another thing not to do on MCOC, at this point Im going to play only Arena's, damn.
Well, cool. Battlegrounds still irrelevant to paragons.
Kabam apparently still can’t get through their heads there are other relevant rewards besides R3 materials for paragons. I get you all want a gate, but instead of keeping paragons away from valiant, you also leave their roster development 6-10 months behind.
Good luck increasing those participation numbers 👍
That won't change anything. BGs is still the most competitive gamemode and if things don't improve, more players will leave and the participation rate will continue to decrease

But it’s still not enough to increase participation, I know the roadmap is to update alliance rewards in Season 18 but that means that BGS will remain stale until then.
and for those saying BGS isn’t stale oh ok, how come in GC there is nobody in URU? you win 1 match and are immediately in higher placing than the lowest tier.
if that doesn’t show lackluster participation then your blind
Honestly can't believe Kabam are happy to piss off every Paragon player I'm the game 😂😂😂
Well it looks like the game is finally dying lol. For a mobile game that has lasted this long, it’s a damn miracle
Yep, *this* is definitely going to be the reason MCOC fails and dies. If the game survived 12.0, it’ll survive longer than you think. I don’t think a failure to update a store for paragons is going to be the nail in the coffin you think it is.

The slow downfall of Battlegrounds will be though if they don’t change its ways. Mcoc survived 12.0 because players found a way to adapt to the changes

No because 12.0 thought Kabam was listening and make sense oh all another reason CCP ben made and of course adapted was to but really 12.0 was a tough one but if it wasn’t for 12.0 I don’t think Kabam would ben as transparent as there or

I wouldn’t say 12.0 was a bad thing but there was more backlash than agreements with 12.0

You think the game is going to die because a store didn’t get updated in a timely manner? Incredible.
I agree that it’s a bummer that Paragons aren’t getting any update, but come on. This is such a bad take that I’m gonna play more BGs out of spite for it
1) Change token required:- Keep 5 Winning Token on Vibranium 1 only (the ranking just before entering GC), make every other ranking requiring 3 Token instead. This will help reduce bottleneck problem, with a lot of players stuck around the same place.
2) Change BG Solo Event:- Change the rewards from 6* shards to Trophy Token instead. This would be helpful to keep BG relevant easier.
By giving player Trophy Token (instead of 6* shards). This would help and reduce the amount of work the Kabam team have to do.
Instead of going through various progression and try to workout what would be the right rewards for these players (and repeat every so often). By changing the milestone rewards to Trophy Token, the Kabam team will never need to review this part again, and just focus on updating the BG Store whenever needed. Since the BG store is progressed based, all players can use the extra token to buy whatever they need at their level.
With these changes, it would reduce the bottlenecks issue, which would also naturally help with the Matchmaking issue, as players would follow through the ranking more naturally, and hopefully make the BG experience more enjoyable for more players.
Currently at Diamond 1 and curious to see how I compared to other rosters that had made the Gladiator’s circuit. Most had top champs at 30k+ in the bottom rung (Uru 2), but came across these below. Can somebody explain what’s going on here?

This.
Valiant players 100% deserve better rewards, geared towards their progression/goals, without being lumped with paragons. I get that, and support it.
As someone who has a fairly strong roster but doesn't want to do Necro 💯 the store should be up to date. I'm in no rush to get to valiant, but I'd also like to be able to buy sigs, r4 mats, and relic stuff for market value, not the wildly over priced level. Not to mention next months SQ is 1,000% better than all the stuff you can buy from the BG store, combined. I like BGs but this isn't going to make me want to play more. In fact, it'll likely make me want to play less...which is a bummer
Next season's nodes are like this one, laziness that only favors strong accounts full of ascended R5s and 7R2s+++.
With my 3 R5s and the rest of the deck R4s or 7R1s, I have no ambitions to win anything. But, when you mostly encounter necro/valiant accounts in Plat and Diamant, this is not fun at all. The fact that you then only updates the store for valiants, thst doesn't motivate me to play more - it just becomes another part of the game I don't care about.
I quit AW/AQ when BG came out and I have no plans to start AW/AQ and Line/telegram 24/7 again. Then EQ/SQ and Arena remains... there wont be much gaming going forward then.
8-9 years, 4,6 mill account, well it was fun while it lasted 🫡
I think it's clear that battlegrounds right now has a much lower partecipation compared to a few seasons ago and mainly it's because the rewards are really outdated and same for the bg store, it definitely needs something bonus for valiant players.
« Less participation. Let’s increase Valiant rewards and improve the Battlegrounds store. » Shortly after, Kabam : « Done for the Valiants! »
So Valiants are the major part of the players in Battlegrounds? If it is not the reality, what about the other titles?! Don’t they deserve an upgrade too? Well, at the moment, no reason to spend more time.

As a f2p valiant, I can't say this is significant enough. I see some value in t6cc only, as I have t6b and t3a in overflow thanks to daily crystals. But I'd expect raids to convert for t6cc once they are permanent. The grind of 150k bg currency things would only give you 2.5 7* champs, but would take soooooo much time
If the valentines calendar is any indication, paragons and Valiant are probably going to start seeing t4a shards and more t6c in month side events/objectives soon enough.

Haven't you heard that our Time is totally inconsequential to kabam?
One additional improvement to the solo event besides improving the rewards paid out is to increase the # of points based on level (similar to EQ solo event). Silver pays maybe 50% more than bronze, gold pays 50% more than silver and so on. Again, this is to incentivize players to progress to the edge of their ability. This should have the effect of evening out some of the matchmaking.

I hope Sagas make the game more enjoyable again

Thank you very for your update thread on BG store and other.
On your post, you mentioned the Kabam are aiming to update the Solo event milestones next month.
I wrote this suggestion on way to improve BG and reduce work the for Kabam team on another related thread.

Makes no sense to match someone in Arcane 2 when I’m in Gamma 2… well Gamma 3 after that.
