If they would do straight rarity gated leagues, where each league consisted of a rarity max and lower rarities they could probably get rid of the seal clubbing issue (outside of the side issue of upgraded items). The PS Matchmaker could still function inside of that construct. The rewards could pretty much stay as they are too.
The only issue I can tell would be how the sort logic works with groups. i.e group members must conform to the group leaders build league or have it auto default to the highest league out of all the members builds.
I don’t have much to say about the squalls but if they did what I just proposed they probably wouldn’t be as much of an issue.
The only down side I really see to this is it constrains a little bit of the creative freedom that we have when building. Though this mostly just effects PVP modes which isn’t the totality of the game.
so long as your not one of those jerks who CONSTANTLY, and i do mean constantly, get in the way of fire or support then im fine with it. but im regarding the vast, VAST majority of brainless “mash forward and no other buttons” kind of players. i have come across giant box mech leg builds who run that stupid triton gun and CONSTANTLY facehug the enemies and block any team support.
leviathans have been done the most dirty out of any build in the game. what is the point in building a massive leviathan if you never will use it? lets look at the modes they are used in.
invasion: you need a certain powerscore to even get into any matches whatsoever it seems. people say 50k+ but i can barely get my levi to 35k without having to spend ungodly amounts of coins on them. the reward is copper which is fine but it rund for 24 hours and often times you run these levis for 24 hours, sometimes for weeks, without getting into any matches. whats even the point?
clan wars: not everyone is going to have all the weapons for this mode nor will they have the coin to make a good levi. even then if you have a clan wars build then why use invasion?
this weapon NEEDS to have its powerscore raised HEAVILY or have it limited to one per build. there is no reason that this weapon should be 800 powerscore. it was already bad enough to have harvesters in beginner pvp back in the day, they were so incredibly difficult to take out and other players had such stupid excuses for it. now they are white knighting for this slop to.
balancing in a game like this is very hard to do, but making it downright unfair to beginners is just suicide for your own game.
“This is the real reason that the game is dying!”
Another reason i’ll add…
Hovers are so op. Has always been meta.
And honestly I’m getting sick and tired of seeing hovers every single game.
I lost the majority of games today, why? Literally only because of hovers.
Since I started playing in 2019, Hovers were op and Meta. Not a single day has passed where Hovers Dropped in popularity \ Usage.
Nerf the speed, especially straifing speed? That’s a start.
But yeah I’m just so sick of Hovers. I don’t wanna Complain but I might have too more, until Hovers Finally get Nerfed For Once.
I love the game. But the balancing is crazy, weapons i get.
But movement parts? Hovers outclass everything.
It’s very hard to have any fun with the Hover Infestation…
I read one people saying this game see no improvement whereas at every occasion they rework many models even without mentionning it. It is a wonder if details and imagination and realism how the models have improved
Why are they reworking models more than they’re reworking core aspects of the damn game itself?
There are things that needed to be addressed a long time ago, but the people in charge don’t wanna address it.
There’s sooo many people trying to get Cicadas Nerfed Hard.
It’s frustrating because Cicadas are only good on Hovers and I guess myriads maybe.
But on omni’s??? Pretty terrible not gonna lie.
People always want weapons nerfed but ignores the key movement parts that make just about everything better… Hovers, myriads, used to be gerridas.
Nerf both if it has to happen. But I wont be happy if my 4 fused cicadas get even worse than they already are
why though? cicadas, to me, seem like a bad weapon cause of their ability. you have to be very accurate to land all your shots and take advantage of the perk. i just dont get why people are giving them so much grief?
isnt 95% of all weapons good on hovers though?
i mean the amount of weapons i seen on hover users is kinda staggering. i seen them go from blockchains to toadfishes… wheels ive mostly seen dog builds and legs usually use long range weapons… battlewalker legs mostly use “get all up in your grill” shotguns or cyclones which i seen some people use but thats mostly it for those.
im kinda questioning WHY hovers make everything better. if its the strafing speed, the speed of the hover itself, its acceleration, its turning, its mechanics, or something else. sure they hover above the ground but we got another part that does that to. though the torpedos seem a bit… weird to run. ive tried them and with a bit of practice i think i can get them down but holy crap they are awkward to use. especially since they are a hover so it throws you off thinking you can strafe but no.
That’s why I advocate for any Hover Nerfs.
Yeah it’ll upset Hover users but i’m convinced it would be good for the game.
My issue is the durability, any damage coming will strip them.
The accuracy too is quite bad, steppe spider is the only cab that really works.
it’s definitely a debate that needs to be had.
They can turn 360 so fast, they dodge shots sooo easily. The ability to peak and speed back to cover.
Heck if you ram a hover they go right over builds! Hitting weapons on top i might add.
As for MVP Torpedo’s. I like them, not because they’re good lol, just fun and something new.
If it could strafe that could be good. Even then i don’t see Torps being better than hovers, because of the size.
Thing I really dislike is the perk, it’s basically only for light cabs and maybe Kensei cab…
They should work with heavy cabs too, wouldn’t really be op i think because of the slow speed.
Why do you think they’re bad on omniwheels? Or any of the other strafing parts for that matter?
From my perspective, the reason why they are popular on hovers is more about the recoil of other weapons being hard to use with hovers, not that they’re helped out that much by hovers.
I don’t see it much differently than how crickets have always been popular on hovers, and one of the cheaper CW combos. Both weapons have low durability, so they’re going to make more sense on any fast strafing build.
You know what? I kinda Disagree.
The only thing is low players.
But every update the game gets better.
Although… They put most of the resources into, Packs, Battle passes etc instead of adding new stuff like brawls maps etc.
The graphics used to be terrible, the game looks great. But imagine if they did that again? Better visuals etc. Better sounds.
More maps. Because what I don’t like is getting the same few maps over and over.
Raids aswell needs love . New raids etc.
But the grind is long.
I say there should be a PVE way to get resources like Scrap wires etc.
Because sometimes just playing pvp is TOXIC.
It’s a long grind and alot of suggestions could improve the game. But will the Russian devs listen to us? I hear they only listen to mainly the Russian Community. Which I understand and it’s ok, but I think words get lost in Translation between Different languages \ Races.
If the game just had more players with good changes theres a chance for a Comeback
