I’m just pointing out that this is not the end, you’ll have to level up all the characters again next set. If you fall behind, then eventually when they start nerfing and buffing things the upkeep will be insane.
1 day gameplay to max out character.
hard for you, not hard for me.
max out character also can be a disadvantage because of matchmaking system.
you think max out character is always an advantage ?
i am just curious how they will handle useless coin on max character.
Doing a 2000 coin grind for +1/5s just sounds like madness, the 1000 from tasks /2000-2500 coin grind to max is enough to get you like 2-3x core lvl 5 abilities, but the +1/5 for legendaries is probably pure whale mode.
Even for f2p if you open up legendaries i took a look and got finally lucky with my samuro packs to open up a alexstraza. Unfortunately through all my packs and bounties, i will only have 25 of the 2500 coins to level her with, and no brightwing to activate synergies.
However i’ll be able to turn her into a 1 move spammer with 1000 task coins and probably let her just spam her first ability. But it’s kinda funky how with f2p, you’re also worrying about being able to only use one move of three, practically turning mercs from a ‘strategic 3 move pokemon’, into a 1-2 move pokemon f2p since it’s all you can afford to invest.
The coin system seems neat for leveling but it really just pidgeonholes you into builds and makes the game more repeatative. Probably by design to sell more tbf to make p2p feel more exciting with unlocks.
But only having one viable ability, with synergies mising, in a game that only has one other dragon (and yet grull, a dragon counter in a meta alexstraza couldn’t even be afforded even as a meta) is funky.
Some support heros really feel like they were rushed before the archetype was truly alive. But i guess mercenaries is kinda a early beta DayZ style preorder state. Maybe it’ll turn into another battlegrounds, but right now it’s just a preorder i guess… whatever the spirit of cashgrab for minimal investment is with some f2p friendliness.
You’re not whalelording anything but the f2p rares like cariel and xyrella and samuro probably though. A fair set, but you’re never gonna whalelord legendaries without a ridicolous grind. So it is like, 50% f2p, 50% whale mode for a +10% advantage in pvp. Kinda funny, but also 50% gacha and 50% self grinding skinner box.
I guess it could be decent and there’s enough to be playable, but i’d be honest, i wouldn’t be playing it if there were no hearthstone rewards. I don’t think i’d ever bother making a seperate download for a mobile. IDK what it is with mobile game devs but my 3 GB ram tablet that has the budget specs of like a 200-300$ laptop lags hard asf on hearthstone’s text and the screen is always lagging, or disconnecting.
Meanwhile Pokemon Unite got like a full on lagless MOBA running with actual pokemon and i want Zeraora cuz they’re cute.
I really feel like blizzard 2021 is just a company that milks it’s ip, normally you wouldn’t compare hobbyist or modders or first time coders to a Triple AAA company.
But this message [RECONNECTING], and [TEMPORARY TEXT]… Well, it’s kind of hard to say that blizzard, a multi million dollar company… has about the development quality than someone with 20$ and a rpgmaker XD. But… IDK… some mods or china companies seem to make higher quality games, even as spinoffs, it’s sad.
oh please, i know for sure that’s not true.
you see all that AFK player ?
the server can’t handle cross region connection well.
i got 10 minute time out for 1 round every 7 game i play because i got queued into someone far away.
just check all haters on play store 1 star review.
even the server have problem handling wifi connection.
did i mention all error on adroid ?
they even made actual update to fix it.
it’s understand able for lag to happen, but 10 minute time out lag ?
to be honest, i can watch youtube and my in game ping still green.
what is the chance for 10 minute lag spike when i can watch youtube at the same time ?
edit : i also love pokemon, i play snorlax because he looks cute and talonflame at that moba game.
I’m just saying, i love hearthstone, but it’s a game that makes merc looks like it could have been made in the 2000s with flash while even the spinoffs like Runescape chronicles (scrapped) and nameless, dime a dozen mobile games actually have higher quality and developing standards or at least leasing.
Blizzard used to be good quality, but now you’re pretty much paying to expect mediocre quality at full whale prices. A price we pay, since lets be honest, if we moved we’d be somewhere else already.
But blizzard is a financial profit extracting company that just happens to make games now. not a game making company as their prime directive. Profit is probably the stockholder’s main goal.
But eh. Can’t complain blizzard isn’t running a charity, just people shouldn’t be surprised the mode was more f2p than thought but still has whale bait, nets and hooks built right into it after the meat wears out.
i thought we are going off topic a little bit and discuss pokemon.
i have love and hate relationship with that game. [pokemon unite]
you’re aware that you also need coins for the spells and items? we’re talking about thousands of hours of grinding
you don’t need thousand hour for that,
once you unlocked a mercenaries, you can farm their coin for 10 coin / 3 minute
100 coin for 30 minute
1000 coin for 300 minute (5 hour)
2000 coin for 600 minute (10 hour average time for 1 max out mercenaries)
(this is average time for robotic style non stop gameplay)
and also you don’t really need to max them out for pvp :
read my post below,
disagree with what i said ?
feel free to tell me your perspective.
