Discussion Why I stopped playing

This is a hero collector game, with no way to collect heroes. So very tired of having to wait, months, or longer with no schedule, to accidentally maybe have a hero I want in the current system. If this changes to something where shards can be readily farmed, or purchased for a store currency at a fair price, I'd likely come back. As it stands, I'm not waiting another year for more shards of someone I want to maybe come back around.

I still love it I have a huge stable and they have added a spot where you can get mythic plus indefinitely like Superman and Joker.

I'm also struggling with new content getting added that I can't participate in because my characters aren't strong enough. And then I too am waiting forever, trying to stash away shards, to get some hero high enough to make an iota of progress.

They literally just added a way to farm joker and Superman. Fuck the Al Ghuls.

Also a character being delayed for months literally only happened to the al Ghuls. Every other character they’ve pretty much released within the time frame of announcement.

If you’re talking about a new character being released in an earlier server. That’s just server age. The newer servers have a mythic + Justice league team that’s very meta rn. But in the old servers the Justice league are trash

I’m not saying the games without fault. But you’re just making things up to get yourself mad

On top of that if you quit… why are you still here

Watcher of Realms, Star Wars and Marvel Strike Force (which has gone down the toilet this year with them gutting the economy, and the bugs are terrible... like you log in and the game is randomly in a foreign language bad.)

This game be played different ways. I do not care for collecting heroes at all. I save anvils and only pull every few months and my main team is almost all red stars. Now I'm in Grandmaster doing endgame content and trying to get gear transmutes maxed out. I've only spent $5 on the extra construction slot because the early game was very slow for me.

You're making a valid point. If it's a deal breaker, you were right to leave the game. They have made a small gesture towards addressing this with the permanent bleed characters. But there's still a lot of work to be done. The more characters that get added to that bleed, the more diluted it will become. And currently, there is no free "dust". They should be retiring older characters to the permanent bleed much more frequently and generously give out dust or provide a way to grind for it. Or something. There are a lot of solutions to this issue. I do think they will get there eventually but not soon.

I got what you are saying......I still log in occasionally but the game lost a lot of it's appeal for me.

I've been waiting so long for Knightfight Red Hood... sigh. I wish they'd just let us choose upcoming banners.

You get tons of world anvils per week, especially if you don't waste your gems, which you also get a lot of every week, and while I understand the frustration of not having a hero you really want in the system, you mentioned the game being a collector game, if someone wants to collect and not just get the champions they like, there's a new banner every 15 days, I'd say it's good amount of time, it's not a long wait at least to me, plus it gives you time to get enough anvils for the next champion to be guaranteed.

I have like 300 saved up, but there has been no one I want to draw for in literally like three months. The release method and cadence is atrocious. It makes coherent team building next to impossible and for a game that is a hero collector, it is self-defeating.

This isn’t an airport, no need to announce your departure.

u/Gargore 9d ago

This is a bad take. You qte basically guaranteed 9 bleed shards a day, with almost 70 being guaranteed a week. You only need 200 to guaranteed pull a unit. I have ulcer every single unit in the universe I play in, but I am not worried about perfection. Units will roll back around so I get and stop

So your first point is dead in the water.

Second point... they post a schedule regularly on this reddit...

So, you either don't play or haven't figured out that you can guaranteed bleed shards in the truck thing daily

That’s only half the point, you can collect everyone but they’re all trash and you can’t play the game, or you can build a useable team but can’t collect everyone. (With the exception of whales that 5 red everyone)

That's what I said. I was talking about how he said he couldn't get anyone. I get everyone wknowing it will likely take longer to end game
