    btw just re-read it.

    it's not about spam energy apparently.

    to enter solo event and alliance event rewards. we need elders mark. elders mark is from the store can be purchased by token and unit(unlimited)

    And how do you get the tokens?

    *By spamming energy*. For f2p, it's the only way to get them.

    Arena 2.0 lol

    I mean at the very least, progressing in the prior objectives wasn't locked behind a ridiculous paywall
    The amount of units I had to spend on energy refills to hit all of them says distinctly otherwise, lol.

    It's not even about whales, it's about *bots*. There's no reward for skill here. BGs should have always been about rewarding skill, not just who can throw away thousands of dollars. The energy cost just to get the tokens you need to *actually* play the game is ridiculous, and then you put the rewards behind a paywall that you don't even need to be good at to get?

    You talk about complaining about whales opening crystals, but this is a completely different set of resources: Sig stones and rankup materials. Yes, there are offers for those too, but never on this scale.

    And even in arena, whales need to have *some* skill to be able to win fights. Here? Nope. Just pick your champs and immediately forfeit fights. You get points anyways!

    The extreme focus on P2W, promotion of botting/forfeiting matches, and unnecessary complication of the paywall currency makes all of this quite bad and far different than normal whaling of the past.
    i think that definitely has the possibility to be a problem - but I think we're assuming it'll be a problem before it IS. The other thing is - if you play other competitive games, this kind of stuff isn't new, and unfortunately no game is above people who will try to make the system work for them any way that they can.

    At the end of the day - Kabam has to incentivize as many players to play, as often as they can, because otherwise matchmaking issues happen, and when those happen, it's death of a game mode. I do think there are risks and potential issues with things like bots - but to the extent they are a problem, we'll have to see.

    For a competitive based game mode it seems to lack the competitiveness required.

    just like this season of alliance war lol

    How many points does an alliance need to qualify for rank rewards?

    I sincerely hope we have either misunderstood the reward system here and there is a strong incentive to do the best you can, becuase you know, it feels like a competitive game mode.

    If an alliance can have all 30 members spam BG matches, quit out, get the L, burn up elders marks (which are unlimited with units) and place super high for very nice alliance rewards that doesn't feel right.

    Hope I'm wrong, the core of the game mode is great. Nodes are difficult (relative to the beta) which is great in discouraging nuke down matches where seconds matter.

    Friendlies are great for obvious reasons too, gives the game heaps of longevity there too.

    Just really hope the reward system is more geared towards doing well (ideally in a solo manner) and that when it's released we have misinterpreted something.

    Does we have to climb through victory track to reach gladiator circuit every season?

    Will the seasonal Gladiators Circuit be awarded within regions - or globally??

    Again Poor rewards for the Thronebreakers.

    That could easily be solved with a similar system to incursions. Play as much as you want, but the rewards (at least the decent ones) are capped per week/month.

    This current system is unrealistic to someone who plays the game as a whole. You either dedicate your life to this single game mode and get the mid brackets of it, or spend on it to get the top rewards, as well as spending on everything else to accomodate the time missed on the other game modes.

    This is like arena heavy grind, but for an entire month and always constantly spending units.
    So would you think it was bad for incursions to make the top zone bonuses reset every 2 weeks instead of every month?

    Kabam kt1 and contest champion have both given horrible opinions with the new Bg system, along with the opinions on the forum already. My question of is it physically possible for you to flip the rewards with points for winning and points for participating? And what are the chances you take effect on this before the season begins

    Dont really know. I dont play incursions because of how boring and unrewarded it is. And I dont like that the milestone rewards reset every 5 days.
    For the other rewards resetting monthly, I think thats fine. Every 2 weeks? Might be fine as well, but less than that it starts becoming a bother

    Would you get points in the solo event if quit out the match, would that count as matches complete? Trying to figure out if the optimal strategy is losing with 2* champs since fights should end quickly or if the optimal strategy is to load up Elder's Marks, start a match and quit. You earn less points but you can do that a lot faster and "earn" more points going through 1000s of fights by just quitting everytime. The only issue might be matchmaking. Since my score would be so negative, it might be hard for me to find a match.

    I think this is another great game mode that will end up as a big dumpster fire if it continues like this. There’s no point to the game mode if it stays like this.

    I genuinely don’t understand the point of it like this.
  • Eb0ny-O-M4wEb0ny-O-M4w Member Posts: 14,159 ★★★★★

    But you don’t have to do it at all? If it reset once a week you could just do it every 2 weeks if once a week is a bother. That’s an issue you have with your own view on the game, where if the rewards are on offer you feel the need to get them all.

    If there are 20k 6* shards on offer for 10 hours of gameplay in a week, you are well within your right to only do 5 hours of gameplay for 10k shards. You don’t have to do it all.

    Why limit everyone to 10k shards a week just because you think it’s too much? Just do your 5 hours of gameplay and let others do 10 if they want. Don’t feel forced into a grind and doing more than you feel comfortable with.
    That is nice and all, but you're forgetting this is heavily focused on RANK rewards rather than milestones or either a peak milestone system.

    Its the same as arena. Theres no middle. You either achieve the goal or fail miserably and get nothing worth for your time invested.
