Not a big difference in game play.
I play exactly like any other solo player.
The only difference is points are added up.
Think of it like buying a Groupon or doing a Go Fund Me project.
Just because our buying power pulled together got us a better product for cheeper doesn’t mean we are going to hang out together.
I think if they opened the gates a lot wider, that would help a lot. They don’t even leave the door open for a full hour. It’s only 40 minutes, and then it’s closed for like 120 minutes, I think. That means it’s unavailable 75% of the time.
What time? IDFK. It staggers so it usually hits at some wonky moment you’d need to create a regularly updated schedule to keep track of, rather than just going, oh it’s 9pm, time to hit that clan challenge. Instead it’s always on a different hour and a fraction.
I’d prefer the gate just was torn down, but I don’t think that will happen, and for some imaginary reason will be unreasonable for the developers to implement. So instead I suggest they open that window a lot wider, like leave it open for four Hours and then…no. You know what? This entire goddmn idea to fcking stupid. They need to round-file it.
I’m not into it. I need to just re-imagine my goals here at Crossout. Either I figure out how to F2P without badges and say to hell with this dumb-fcking monkey business, or I need to just piss-off myself, and find something better to do.
The reason I think that it’s in select times is to allow players to gather. I don’t think it’s really needed though especially on platforms that have more players.
They should open a portal to it in the awakening area and announce it there too. There is lore they are ignoring and there is an entrance to the colosseum on that map. That map would be a good waiting portal for teams as it has the same max limit of players.
Edit: typos
Something like this would be pretty cool.
I guess like waiting for fortnite or something like that? Then when the number of players is reached it pulls you in?
As an interactive lobby system. It could just be called out like go to X the games are about to start. They do it already for some of the other group missions in the area already.
How about a place in Beblam - like a circle on the ground area and as soon as 4 guys get on the circle they get pulled into a match?
Then we can get skinner builds and make people play lol 
Emmmmm scratch that last part - but it did come to mind as a troll 
If it had an except thing like grabbing something in a raid (like you have to hold a button to except)
Bedlam could be worked out similarly in all actuality I’d just swap out the bedlam map for the awakening map and allow pvp.
That might be pretty cool.
I would love to have a big map like that to PvP on.
I think they could do it tech wise and that it’s probably a matter of just not allowing bots to spawn on it the map.
Very cool idea. Bedlam and adventure should be combined, and I love the idea of it serving as a portal to other modes.
I would love Crossout to feel more like a big open sandbox world, with skirmishes within that world.
I was going to treat them as separate in this: one for pvp one for pve but that is really up to a vote really. I just know there are district groups and don’t want to short change either of them. Most of the raids could probably be launched inside too.
I think we would also need a way to form groups while inside the lobby area too. There are some smaller issues to work out in this especially with the non-pvp version as you only have 4 players. So randoms from that would be from multiple awakening instances (in programing terms). So there should be a way to migrate to better ranked ps ranged instances.
Maybe classic adventure opens within this lobby version of the map. Like you go through a tunnel and come out at the beginning of adventure.
But back in what we could call The Wasteland, there would also be gates to everything else in the game.
Almost more like a GTA feel.
To help pay for it all, they could sell plots of land in some neighbourhood, which you could design using the range items. I could actually see myself buying wasteland real estate.
General integration of the game I think would be for the best. Using the Awaking map or any other map is just incidental but I do like the awakening map in general. Using it as a lobby I think could potentially drive up demand for changes for the map too. It’s been neglected for way to long and it’s actually a fun place to hangout. I meet a lot of new players there and often help them finish group missions.
I think it would give the game a bit of the open world feel that a lot of players were asking for. There are gates in the area that are not used either which could perhaps be used for expansion DLCs as well.
Too many players to do this on a map but you should be able to invite a person back to your garage. The download mechanics are already in so you should be able to pull it as a working map with a loading screen.
Honestly they should be able to do custom clan map to custom clan map too in the same way. I don’t know why they didn’t follow through with it.
I do think there are other already made assets there that they could list as prizes for garage building, If they let you do some of your own map setting beyond that the demand would probably go up too.
The funny thing about this is that Monkey is a solo player. He builds by himself, he doesn’t go into parties, he’s not an active clan wars player and when he’s on, he’s never part of group play. He just shows up to play rounds on whatever weird thing he is building and then he bugs out.
Monkey is not the spokesman for the active clan player. You guys are tar and feathering one of the more antisocial players on Xbox for saying that the group challenges are fun, easy and a good thing.
Its not very hard to look for a group to grind with. I’m in one on Xbox that is made up of many different players that just meet up to grind Invasion together. It also wouldn’t be difficult to join a band under similar circumstances and watch the badges flow in.
For me, I am a casual clan wars player in a casual clan. I play about 25 CW games per week and I am in a group or micd up about half the time. Under the new system, I should get the 1700 badges I normally get without the annoying obligation to play raids or to play cannons or shotguns.
I’m sorry y’all are intensely unhappy with the new daily challenges. I don’t think that it would be very difficult to make it work for you.
Hell yeah I am.
I have to agree we are having different experiences in game and are all looking to make it fair.
I wasn’t always like that but you are 100% correct. I have not group played in about 18months and I barely talk to anyone on Xbox any more.
I did play with my current clan one session when I first joined - I PvPed 7 out of 10 clan wars games and that was the last CWs I played.
3 years of being the leader of a top ten clan burnt me out. I don’t think I will ever find a love for CWs again. I got sick of being a babysitter for full grown adults.
I would rather just build/share my builds, play PvP and log out. (I do from time to time help people in a raid or two, build custom builds for friends, and join voice with new guys to teach them the ropes, but those times are fewer and fewer)
That’s about all I enjoy, this new system lets me earn more rewards AND give me a more competitive mode I can play solo.
Thank you Darth.
I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE FOR WHAT I’M WRITING BUT SOME THINGS I REALLY CAN’T STAND.
i have see a lot of stupid egocentric person that not considered that not all player have 24 hour every day for play, somebody like me have s real problem in real life and i can enter in game sometime no more then 1\2 hour or 1 hour every day,
until some mouth ago i stay in one active clan and i do a lot of CW, but when i start to have this problem, i’m go out of clan because i cant enter in geme when we have CW and i can enter in game when other player of my nation (and my caln) enter in game.
i go out for free the clan slot for one active player, but i continue to have access to theyr discord ecc (we continue to be friends)
now i stay in one clan of one friend but this clan is not active for the same reason of me.
we are forced to not play CW and we are forced to play alone.
now some idiots that are happy that solo player cant recive bedge, can explai to me where is the reason of your heppines to see the people that must go to work for continuie to live or people that are siked ? or everybody must be a 4 years old kids that have everything from parents like this idiots that are heppy by this bedge mod ?
I get what your saying and yes I agree the time spans are just bad for the game and the ramification on badges are worse.
