There are two things I don’t like about the new Confrontation: first, I don’t like that it is forcing people to go along with the meta. A major part of what attracts me to the game is building my own vehicles using my own designs, regardless if they’re efficient or not. In fact, I’m somewhat of a glutton for trying to make work all the “horrible” weapons and movement parts. I also prioritize aesthetics over efficiency and work within that limitation. So maybe I’ll win 1 out of every 10 matches as I get completely annihilated by omni-shotgun-wedges and dual-Punisher-hovers.
The other thing I don’t like about the new format is that it’s open for about 20 minutes by the time I get home from work. Then it doesn’t reopen until just before I need to go to bed for work the next day. So I get in 2 matches, 3 if I’m lucky. Pretty frustrating.
I see it as a punishment type of game in some cases where you have to adopt the latest stratagems to get a foothold. I can’t get mad about doing it this way because it’s more realistic in some senses.
I really enjoy trying to do that too, but it doesn’t always work.
or…or
the player just give up from playing and starts playing even more casual, it’s like water, the water moves trough the least resistant path.
the easiest way is to simple don’t chase the Meta, play a few games from time to time.
No way in hell i can even start going against a clan and META.
The only active member in my clan is me
I like my builds but they aren’t prepare for a clan environment, i don’t even know how to build a Meta build.
Even if i bin my clan (literally my clan) and go to another clan, i don’t have time for that.
But forget all of that.
Even if i wanted to play clan battles, how do i get myself up to speed? since badges rewards were simply pulverized .
Badges for raw materials were an important part of my progression
I’m simply stuck where i am
You’re welcome to come join me I’m on PC too. The band has 2 open spots before I kick the inactive player that I don’t know. I can make it a clan later.
It’s just not true. I build ALL of my own builds for this mode. And even though you might do better with a META style build many other builds work. (You don’t have to be MVP to win)
You can find over 20 of my public builds in the post linked below. Some of those builds are just trash for this mode, BUT I can win games with every single one of them.
Also, I do plan to build some budget builds and post them as well. (Sorry - Xbox only)
Sounds to me like you’re taking the right approach with what you have. As you said, it’s just down to who you’ve got on your team, and who you’re up against. Sometimes it’s a long losing streak, sometimes it’s all wins, sometimes it’s a mix. Just keep playing, and the points accumulate.
It’s kind of like wrestling, where you get paid for losing too, as long as you put on a good show.
Don’t forget the new cash only wheels that negate the omamori, the omamori’s nerf, and the new levi-killing gun.
If you don’t pay for those parts… well… piss off, I suppose.
I like the Atoms aesthetically, and I’m generally OK to pay cash for Team Igor’s developments in the art department (I do like their art), but what yet another omnidirectional movement part does to this game, I’m not sure I’m crazy about.
They can be bought on the market for coins too, so there is a work around for that, but ya, they have ratcheted up the pay to play aspect considerably…while tanking the fun factor to no small degree as well, which seems counterintuitive, doesn’t it? If they wanted me to pay them for entertainment, shouldn’t it be entertaining?
Kathleen Kennedy says, no.
Also, they seemed to have ganked the coins from the “lite” version and bumped it’s price up too, if I’m not mistaken.
IMO, that’s all it’s done for the last eight months.
They are advertising three open positions as developers at the Targem website, so maybe with some luck the right kid will bring some proper ideas or talent on board and maybe things will shape up.
IDK. I count on Poony4u to do the optimism here. That’s not really my thing. PTSD is my thing and the only reason I’m awake at this hour. I’m doing good to not make the news in a shocking attack on Wells Fargo employees.
Same. I piss him off from time to time, but his obnoxiously non-obnoxious optimism in endearing. I could learn something from him in that regard.
If it were decor, I’d be fine with it. Seeing videos of them mounted on spiders & being used as impenetrable armor is not cool. I only play one game at a time for the most part. The last game I played started down this road & fell apart so fast it made my head spin. They’d introduce a new bot, and it’d be so OP you couldn’t compete against it. So, to win, you had to have it. That’s not what this latest pack is, but it’s the 1st time I can remember a part ONLY being available via cash. Maybe there was one before it. I dunno. The BP weapons & parts were the 1st big step in this direction that I saw, and this bypasses that for straight out P2W BS.
Apparently my oldest kid is a bit of a programming prodigy. I’ll see if he’s interested in learning Russian.
Wait… just asked him if he was interested. He said, “not particularly.”
Russia is very conservative, and the people are tough as nails. I’ve never met a Russian sissy. The only places I’ve ever met a Russian is at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and in jail. Both of them were nice, but seemed carved out of stoic oak. I think their nerds are even intimidating.
I often hired two Russian dudes to do drywall.
They were massive dudes.
Spoke very little English.
Ate raw onions & bell peppers as snacks.
Now… no lie… one would tie 5 gallon paint buckets to his feet & the other would hand him a sheet of drywall. He’d then lift the sheet over his head & pin it to the ceiling WITH HIS HEAD, align it, and then screw it into place… SOLO.
Next time you’re at the hardware store, pick up a sheet of drywall.
You’ll see why this has stuck in my memory for 25 years.
People have been crying and blaming relics for the fact they lose-cant get uranium-global warming etc, for ever.
The reality is that relics dont mean much, its all about experience on what beats what and tactics-counterplay.
The above is stated for clanwars, now imagine a mode with powerscore limitation that gives relics inherent disadvantage because of that.
This doesnt mean that crossout is excused for its pay to win item fusion crap, but given that me and the clans i have been to have won more CW battles against full relic fused teams than i can remember, i boubt its the fusions that are solely responsible for losses.
This is a screenshot of a win with a previous clan of mine against current 4th clan in leaderboards.
3k out of those 4k in my score and the win on the first match has been achieved with me using double heathers, a legendary weapon. Against one of the top clans of the game in proper clan wars.
Its not any achievement or anything, if you ask most of the guys in silver+ will have plenty of similar proof, i just showed it since you asked
