The Game…
Is not at its best at the moment is what most Content creators are saying at the moment.
I think that must would agree that Kabam is taking a decent turn on half of the stuff that come into the game: Coliseum, Event Quest, Carnia Challenges + replacing boring AQ. But the other stuff is evidently not going really well: Essentia, battlegrounds etc.
I personally think that there should be a bit more involvement of the CCP when it comes to this kinda stuff. I.E. making it live to then FIRST and then fixing anything that they recommend to fix rather than just putting it straight out to 300,000 people in the game. Below are some recommendations on how the game could be improved to make it less complex to new players:
Defenders/Immunities:
I think it would be cool to add an extra tab where you can just go and instantly find a place to see every champs immunities. For Example, look for where it says “Bleed” and there it would show every champ that has the immunity to bleed. This would also have to be the same for champs that inflict bleeds too.
Also, we should have like a short paragraph on how to counter defenders above 4/5 to make it easier for newer players to just try it out in practice modes rather than to search on YouTube how to play 30 different meta defenders.
Battlegrounds:
Personally, I don’t know about everyone else but there is WAYYYYY to much experimentation in Battlegrounds. In fact, I feel like it’s only for top players who have stacked rosters and isn’t as inclusive with the rest. I think it’s way too grindy and unenjoyable even with an account of 9.5 mil. So I use an alternative option for Battlegrounds…
Whenever 3-4 champions get released/buffed in one month (Like buffed Thor and Groot along with 2 new releases or something). Put two of those champs in the next Titan but then one champ as a reward in Battlegrounds that you have a chance win after like 3-6-9 months? Here’s how it would work: 1 or 2 weeks of Battlegrounds where you can win 30 Grace crystals of the newly released/buffed champion after you win like 5-10 matches of battlegrounds . But instead of making it 7*s, make it 2-3 stars instead so people 110% have a chance of winning! (THIS IS JUST A RECOMMENDATION). Then you would do the same thing with another champion the following month (stop after 3 champs) and then it would rotate with 3 champions until you get them after around 6-12 months. And most likely could be the ascended version too. This might I add would also solve waiting a year to get ascensions for new champs.
MORE CARNIA CHALLENGES:
I mean is there really more explanation needed for this? This could literally be adding certain champs for use in 9.4 and then just getting extra rewards for doing it. This could even be like an ascended version of a new champ???
Also, u said that you were getting rid of Back Issues, so recreate it and then like a while later, add some Carnia challenges to it!
The Layout of Quests:
I’m referring more to Crucible I’d say here. Why should you be doing a Quest with 64 bosses nonstop?! Isn’t that just too much. This has a simple solution and that would be to make portals that lead to different Acts. I.e. In Act 8 Crucible, you would have 4 portals each connecting to 8.1,8.2,8.3 & 8.4. Problem solved…
Also, I like how they’ve done Story Quest, maximum 6 fights per path and only 3-4 paths per Quest. Once again, why not add empowered crystals to some quests?
This is 80% of what I think would make the game really good and maybe not THAT more simplistic but still would help. Let me know what you think…
