    So I’m not sure if this has been suggested but if it has I guess I’ll suggest it again.

    The milestones in the solo objectives should have the following IF unit refresh continues and the 15 energy cost continues.

    Depending on the amount of milestones divide up 10 small energy and 5 regular energy refills into them. For units divide 90 units (2 refreshes) into all the milestones. It’s not game breaking nor is it going to change someone’s account. This would allow for 8 totals refreshes per month if the objectives stay the way they are and 40/20 energy refills. If it doesn’t stay that way then just figure out a way for the whole month to give you some champ refresh while supplying energy refills too.

    I have a lot of energy refills so it’s not bothersome but this could help with other folks who still have a lot of content to do and want to do BG also. As for the units they speak for themselves.

    Just a suggestion.

    I was unable to activate torch prefight ability on 2 of the fights. However this worked with mr. Fantastic.
    Guillotine 99 was missing her prefights as well and guess what? Started the fight with zero digisouls and could not power drain.

    Since I’m refusing to run this garbage iteration of map 6, casually jumping into this mode has been nice. I had been stuck at 80% of a science catalyst and it’ll be fully formed today. My alt had been stuck on 98% tech and now I’ll be getting nimrod up to r3 next level up.

    Honestly, for people with energy concerns, if you’re the type that explores lower difficulties of EQ, compare your rewards for completion to exploration and maybe just cut it short. You give up units but the rewards here are solid.

    The rewards for the beta are really good (6* per week is good imo)
    Overall the game mode is fun, for me especially when trying to make better decisions picking champs here and there.

    Now to thing I don't like most:
    milestones are by design it encouraging you to tank. To win many fights, you want opponents with similar roster. As fun as it is to outplay all those paragons using your r2 champs, quite often you will lose just because of you have less champs. And now consider you can only use your best champs 3 times each, and having to replace them would cause even more loses. On the other hand, you can tank enough to the point where you can use your 4*, then as you get back up 5*, and some time later 6*. And as it happens, you occasionally face opponents who give up to tank. Wich is actually great for rewards — if half of the time you face someone who gives up, and the other half you do it yourself, you can get all the rewards without winning a single fight. So most likely unfortunately they will change the rewards into some rank type like aw is currently. Wich is just bad for people like myself, who won't be using any units to refresh champs and therefore wouldn't stand a chance vs players with more units available. And those also can buy unlimited amount of energy refills, what gives them more fights, i.e. higher scores on leaderboard.

    How to fix it — remove characters recharge, separated ranked matches of limited number and others, where you just play for fun. I actually would love them to remove arenas and move all the rewards from there into unranked battlegrounds, just because it is a much more fun mode, and also it fits better to the name of arena

    This mode will fail if they don't remove the milestones and go with an AQ-type weekly ranked system.

    As of now, I have no incentive to actually try to win a tough BG. In fact, because they last so long and the champ refresh cost, it's a waste of time and champs to even try.

    Eventually, people are going to get sick of getting matched up with accounts way too big for them and not even try. That'll lead to having no one to fight with. That will lead the end of the gamemode.

    This week nodes are so funny (power snack and rise to power), I'm really happy that you proof other than safeguard.
    I think that 45 for full charge a champion is a lot, may be 25 or 20.
  • AGYAATAGYAAT Member Posts: 210
    Will those trophy tokens remain as it is after the current month long beta or do we have to use them before 6 June (last date of bg beta preview)???

    I liked but 30 Win by 1 week with energy its hard …

    In previous betas, the timer would start at 2:00 when my fight actually starts. Now it seems to start earlier and take loading into effect. By the time my fight starts now, I have around 1:50 remaining, sometimes as bad as 1:40.

    I get not wanting to waste other peoples time but it's not fair to be punished if don't have best connection or most poweful device.

    Feedback:
    1) obviously still a bug when the other person forfeits (I get a black screen and have to force close the game)
    2) I would like a longer timer when choosing the first defender. Maybe increasing 10 seconds to 15
    3) if the timer runs out when selecting, have it default to the defender currently queued. On several occasions I’ve had a defender ready but didn’t hit the button in time.

    Even though this would be nice at the same time those with huge rosters will benefit even more. They will always have their rank 4 sig 200 champs and their rank 3 sig 200. The recharge is fine, nothing wrong with it, just shouldn’t be 18 hours for full recharge. If I do some BG before bed and wake up after 7-8 hours my champs should have a full charge.

    Tanking isn’t a bad idea but If they treat this like war rankings you’ll want to rank where you want your account to progress, not where it makes it easier to win fights. I’m sure there will be a store and potentially some ranking rewards. We’ll see though

    Week 1 went little competitive but now we just do a match making and then either of the players forfeit the match, its just about collecting rewards rather than playing BG. The number of wins required and every 2 day milestones made us play it much and are little fed up with it so unless there is a reward for that leaderboard the beta is not going as intended atleast in case of some number of players. You should have put rewards for leader board every week. Anyway this can be corrected when BG is out of beta and released into the game as a mode.
  • GeoradGeorad Member Posts: 64
    Just wanted to say that at the moment it is the most stupid game mode. You don't need to play it just "click and wait". I hope that unless you will recompense those who played it at high ranking. Without ranking prices it has no sense.

    The buffs are ridiculous, this is not players playing against other players this is 100% computer playing against other players because of the buffs. Get rid of the buffs and let people really play to see who is the best

    I hate the buffs too especially this week.

    The power gain is too much for me. Tried as I might I get hit more times with the sp3 than avoiding it.

    Also seems to be getting the fricking parry issue, which doesn’t help as well. Get hit with the 5 hit combo (when you are dead sure you’re blocking) and you’re as good as dead.

    What is the best way to report cheaters? I played a modder the other day and screenshotted the matches and his profile.

    Hey @GNASTY if you believe you see someone cheating, you can send a report to our Support Team by clicking the gear-shaped icon in the top-left corner of the game's home screen and scrolling down to the button labeled "Support". Any info you can provide in the report on what you saw and the date/time it happened can be very useful to the team and can go a long way toward helping the process go faster as well.

    Would be nice if we could discard and replace one depleted champion of our deck without having to clear all the deck 🤷‍♂️

    Are you all planning on doing something to modders? I get tired of facing modded matches. Like them taking out my 6 star 3/45 gilly 99 in 6 seconds with a 5 star isn’t obvious that they are modding at all. Asp the dropped controls and input issues are getting really frustrating as well.

    You can remove the character from the deck on the right, you just have to not click on the Recharge icon part.

    After this beta ends and the store closes will we get to keep any unused beta currency for use in future stores or do we need to spend it before closure? @Kabam Miike @Kabam Zibiit
  • NoobdaNoobda Member Posts: 787 ★★★

    My fighters keep changing at the time of fixing for another. Can you fix this please, some games lost just because of this bug


    I had 2 seconds left to chose my defender and locked my defender at the exact 2 second mark. But I lost because the defender I selected was changed automatically. Happened recently with me.

    I was wondering if the normal rules apply or are excluded from battleground..
    Do champion with armor up champions take damage from plasma build up detonation.. if not I feel I got screwed over in battleground.. my Warlock with armor up got damage from detonation..

    If you ate a heavy you can still take feedback damage with an armor up

    First time it happen I quit in 2mins of waiting.. took a loss (thanks Kabam [note the sarcasm])

    This is second time battleground hangs after the 1st match.. its been more than 6mins.. how long do I wait till it progress.. or do I take a loss in a winnable fight. (another loss to forced forfeit thanks kabam) correction: forfeit button not work too.. its a frozen screen.. need to close game and restart which equals quiting.. right?!?

    Again the loading screen is frozen.. it was a Thing off.. I have 6* Thing and he had 5* Thing, I use 6* Falcon and he use 5* Claire Voyant.. until now screen is frozen.. not loading or anything.. this plain sucks…. Nothing functions except forfeit the match which I’m certain I can win.. it’s good 3mins of frozen screen.

    Current battleground store has over 7 days left on the items. I thought they refreshed every 7 days?
  • SandeepSSandeepS Member Posts: 1,255 ★★★★
