My thoughts on everything from the last few months.
I normally do not post much other than general questions, but I feel like I want to provide my perspective to the conversation of everything that has been happening over the last few months.
I wanted to give Scopely the benefit of the doubt regarding new changes as I can understand that some changes were needed going forward.
Instead Scopely has gutted what was left of the game and is not actively talking with anyone to see how the changes are affecting people.
The economy is still in the toilet. There are some neat ideas, but not executed well. I really like the idea of orbs that change based on level, but only if the rewards are enough. The Training mat orbs we get from Arena are ok at best, but we get one every other day?? Why can't we get like 10 orbs for 1st and trickle down to one orb for top 500. Either that or increase the amount each orb drops. We need about 2K orange mats to get to a usable level for ONE character. With this system I can get that in about 10 days, meaning a whole new team would take almost 2 MONTHS to get to a usable level, meaning you may mis the next team that will be needed for the next 4 events to get the NEXT team.
T4 mats were never a bottleneck for me for the longest of times, but after the change to lock them into the Ability orbs, my supply has run out. Just yesterday I had 8 T4's. Not 80, not 800, but EIGHT.
I was one who saved up my power cores for characters I really wanted. With their removal from Arena, I feel like I get barely any, to the point I do not refresh the stores or even energy.
But hey they at least gave us new content to play... if you are lucky enough to have built specific teams without being told we need those teams.
I really would like to do the War tower as I love Jeff, but my Omen and Shadow Conclave are going to be sitting at level 1, even Silver Breaker.
They gave us a bit more content but removed most of the rewards.
The worst part is that they heard the noise before the changes, they hear the much louder noise now, but still there has been NO communication.
