Not sure all of my comment went through. Here's the last part that is stricken in my view:
That change will be "to relieve the feeling of defeat that comes with taking [30] shot at a defender, losing, and feeling that you're now helping the other alliance" because you can't revive anymore. Brilliant!
Sorry, but I gotta laugh at this one.....not even disagreeing with you on if these changes are bad....but over the last few years so many have either threatened the existence of this game or claimed it was on the edge of crumbling...and it is still here and financially successful. (not holding on to a "life line")
People forget that the people that frequent these forums are a relatively small percentage of the people that actually play this game....and a decent percentage of the posters here obsess over every little aspect of this game.....they are not necessarily indicative of the attitudes of most players. The alliances I chat with on Line for the most part have had a pretty benign reaction to the 2 upcoming changes you have mentioned, with an attitude of "let's see how this plays out".....nobody talking about quitting...or freaking out about it.
Once again, not saying you are wrong about the 2 changes....as far as 6*s go I think much of it depends on what Kabam does in the time between now and their release in regards to rank up materials and 5 star shard availability....as far as AW 15.0, until I see the new map it is hard for me to scream "$$$ grab".
But this game is not going to crumble and fall anytime soon.
Yeah. These idle threats crack me up
Fair point.Bosses are now practice fodder to increase everyone’s skills.
You don’t appreciate the 3* Arena Boosts?
Civil Warrior has armor stacks that reduce offensive ability accuracy, that will not stop Arc overload, same with Comic Ultron. Both do however have the ability to Healblock, which will counter the regeneration.
Big shot: I wanna make more revenue, pitch me an idea.
Office guy: err, well data shows that bosses and mini bosses in alliance wars generate the most ammount of revenue, how about putting more on the map?
Big shot: I guess we cant have have more than 1 boss right? Even for us thats too far.. put 5 mini bosses instead of 2.
Office guy: You've done it again sir!
Maybe if I could store more than 5. But no. I really love the 3K loyalty.
They have different percentages when the AI uses the champ. I've fought Black Widow and she is evading like nightcrawler with an evade boost. It is nuts. Either they change the numbers for the AI or the software doesn't understand math.
Well, in fairness, every other change with AW is good, or seems to be. Many of them things I have seen asked for on here, so they are listening to some of it. They still have time to change their mind on defender kill points. Maybe they decide to give them out but worth 25% of attacker kills.
@Kabam Miike What about the hot rush of victory when your opponent in a tightly-contested war dies one time too many on a cleverly placed defender? What replaces that? Win or lose, some of our most glorious and memorable wars, with both teams on the edges of their seats in the final hours, have come down to a difference of a few kills.
Also, will we still see individual defender kill counts so we can gauge effectiveness?
@Kabam Miike, I understand the idea behind removing defender kills, but with the removal of defender kills it means that players won't be afraid to use the "timeout" that often.
We'll see more and more players using SIM / IM to "fight > wait for regen > pause > timeout > repeat", and more players that force-close the game in order to start over if they screw up at the beginning of the fight .
Not sure you thought about that.
Wars are not supposed to be a practice fodder for boss fights. Well you can still fight boss nodes if ur ally doesn't have a chance to win . But if you want to get better try practicing against WS in rol as stun immune or just practice duels without parry against r4 5* champs with ur low ranked 3* , That's how I got better at boss kills. Removing defender kills defeats the purpose of a fair war where skill is rewarded and non-spending alliances had a chance to win against spenders. lets say u get better at fighting boss nodes, but new war system treats skilled and non-skilled players as equals. Whoever spends big will win wars
What if each player gets 3 deaths or timeouts without any penalty, and deaths or timeouts after 3 give points to the opponents?
This would allow users to attack and die with their heroes and thus fulfill the developers' stated intent, while limiting people from infinitely healing their Iron men with timeouts or using 15 team revives per game.
Thoughts?
If we create another thread you close it down but if we post here none of the questions get answered.
Hmmmmm....
They were a typo. There is an in game message going out right now with the correct dates.
By brute force I mean die and revive a lot.
True no skill required anymore. Just revive/heal or regen-pause -timeout .
Because they have a wall full of candy and 14 dogs hanging around. I hear some of the dogs work part-time.
I suggested a similar, but not identical idea here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/comment/104329#Comment_104329
The difference is mainly that instead of penalizing dying, the idea is to penalize reviving. So there's never a penalty for using any champs you have, which was the problem Kabam Miike stated was the problem being addressed by the change. But it is similar to the idea you're expressing here.
