Is 450 units worth of tickets for 1 week of map 7 accurate?
How can the alliance ensure players have tickets on hand to pay for the week? There is potential for players bad at accounting to leave the other players high and dry for the week.
As I understand this change, you've even eliminated a very fair way that alliances were able to balance resource farming: people swapping, within their own alliance, resources (like gold for loyalty or gold for BCs) based on how they play their account. The scaling pricing should go away, or the only thing this change does is make it even worse for people that like to focus on one aspect of resource obtainment over another.
Barrier to entry should be skill and roster development. Let everyone in the game try the hardest map. What difference does it make to anybody if it all comes down to prestige anyway.
Really making the game worse at your most pivotal time in years.
player who run map7 in alliance that run map766 is doing it only because it balance between the reward he can get and the donations he can give...
now that the player still need to spend the same to enter into map7 why shouldn't he do it in a map777 alliance?
IMO.No entry costs allow players to continually run maps they are not capable of completing which has many negative effects a game designer wouldn’t want to encourage.
They could've tackled the energy timer issues or the general repetitiveness of AQ, or literally anything else, but no. They have to break the only thing that works fine. Almost nobody cares about the donations.
So if map 5 is ran do the people who do the map 5 BG need tickets?
- Alliance treasury existed to fund maps 5-7... which means map 5 was included.... so if an alliance only did 5x5, it would have significant resources on the treasury.... yet, instead of refunding the resources you give them tickets for map 6 and 7 which they cant use... if map 5 became free, the treasury could still be used to fund individual BGs in map 6 or 7, but now part of these tickets are given back to people that wont use them while forcing others to pay for the whole alliance
- The whole point of the new AQ system was to allow different maps for different BGs but now, in this poorly designed system, only the map 6 and 7 players pay full cost while everyone gets the same rewards.... obviously nonsensical
It is not possible that moderators/developers know so little about the game that they dont understand that... one has to ask, why do this???? it could have been easily solved by transforming the alliance treasury into a ticket holder where players donate with the same flexibility you suggested but still sharing the costs and the benefits.
This move will create friction between alliance mates... will reduce the ability of higher players to coexist with lower players in the same alliance...
so we beta test changes to heroes but these decisions are made without any consultation....
If I were you, I would strongly suggest to put a stop to this immediately and go back to the drawing board....
