February 14th 2017 PVP Arena Update Discussion

It is said it's random. As if anything in computing is. No one knows, but it's obvious it's not random.
Those who know will not tell :p

Haha, before the beta ended, it seemed the game actively hated me. Only went first twice out of 15 tries that day. When you're dealing with sentinels that is a death sentence.

This. PVP is an addictive pay-to-play trap at the moment. The more money you invest in ironite, the higher your rank will be. The higher your rank, the better your reward. Simple as that. It's evident in the 1 SOW per hour and only 10 battles in 10 hours if you don't buy more ironite.

What needs to be understood is that with the number of competitors, getting into the highest reward tier is unattainable even for the best Prisoner DEF teams unless you never sleep and have free time 24/7. Not a flawed system though, as it seems more intentionally flawed to make that money. Quite genius really.

That said it has given me a fun new challenge. Please leave the Prisoner un-nerfed as I actually enjoy the opportunity to defeat his team once every hour! Takes me back to a time when Trolls were the bane of my existence :p

Cheers!

That was my first thought when i saw beta few weeks ago!
I woke up every morning with about 15-20 losses (so if you play casually you will stand on the same spot the whole week). And i asked myself: what will i do, when that 15 changes to a 100?...
But i thought that everyone was asking themselves that same question (devs included) and they had it all figured out...

Super challenging to progress. I've gotten to a certain level and am standing still because of so many attacks (six in an hour recently). Fortunately, my hold rate is good right now so it balances itself out and keeps me stuck rather than going back (as long as I play and win my SOW).

But once the newbies figure this out a bit more defense rates will drop and we're all gonna be in trouble!

Aditional content?? Just got it.

Additional content must have been the fix for claiming achievements. Claimed everything again after 1 month of wait :O

Just had an update too. Wonder if its achievements?

Congrats! It worked.

Achievements are fixed 😀
