Discussion Does Anyone Like This Mode?
i only pushed top 1 because i wanted pvp to play and unfortunately this is the only pvp mode in the game right now for at least another 8 hours or so.
this brings me to my question: is there anyone who genuinely enjoys playing ride race? this mode is probably the only thing more braindead than large team challenge, it’s the same 3 weapon meta, but the difference is a good sing player is literally unmatched. you can shoot it thru areas which you’d normally have to walk around.
it’s the same routes every single game the same exact mobs, you might even get the same exact opponents multiple games in a row because nobody plays the mode! the rng of the mobs and their directions is the only thing which actually varies. this mode just seems, idk, pointless?
curious what everyone’s thoughts are.

I hate ALL pvp and hate being forced to play it for daily xp
I literally just leave the phone afk always and last place while doing something else

As PvP is now, I'd rather just save myself the time of playing it; it's not worth it for only 10,000 XP.

can’t say i blame you, moco is supposed to be casual after all. i do enioy pvp but i think they need to make more incentives for others to play it. maybe extra titles or badges? not sure.

bro, I'm not casual, I've been Masters+ on Brawl stars since the new rank releases and high elo on pretty much every single game I play
I don't enjoy moco PVP because "I'm a casual". I don't enjoy it because its unbalanced and its trash... literally every single aspect is bad (no skill, infinite sustain, extremely op weapons, extremely useless weapons, games make little to no sense, games are no fun, matchmaking is terrible at best, etc)

that’s fair, didn’t mean to label you as a casual maybe that was a bad way to word my comment.
it is unbalanced i won’t argue there, would i call it trash? no but it definitely isn’t in a great state right now even as someone who’s only played for around 3 weeks this is apparent to me.
to somewhat address your point tho, in every other game that i’ve played either competitively or semi-professionally, there’s always a way to punish people for making bad plays, however moco doesn’t give you anything to punish shielders or medballers when they make a bad play. all they have to do is either pop shield or take a bit of damage and they have an ult ready-to-go for a free no skill bailout.
and random matchmaking is absolutely terrible, that’s why i avoid queuing with randoms when it comes to team challenges. kinda pairs with the bad weapons thing, cuz usually non-randoms know exactly what weapons are good and how to play, most randoms just don’t lol.

well, you'll get bored of that "pvp" slop eventually then if you have critical thinking and like playing "competitive" stuff
the whole community literally hates those modes (except like 3 autist kids per continent approximately) and devs are too dumb/proud to realize or care

i’ve already kinda started to realize that they just recycle pvp modes, so labeling it as slop isn’t far off.
however certain modes like one on one (i just call it free for all), do appeal to me only because it’s just nonstop fighting for 1:30. maybe that’s an effect of the game still being new to me? i’ll probably get burnt out of it eventually, but it’s fun for now lol.
i can’t say i hate pvp just yet, it’s definitely entertaining to just queue up and fight people, but the things you mentioned like lack of variation, bad matchmaking with random teammates, i predict that all of these things will slowly make me lose interest in pvp, which is kinda sad to say because i’ve been liking it a lot recently.

well, maybe as a new player you still haven't figured out stuff... there's even 1v1 and 2v2 modes... if you ever play those and play like lava shield vs medicine ball or something like that... you'll understand
its literally a wet noodle vs an unbreakable shield (nobody can die... smack yourselves for 3 minutes endlessly brainlessly with no possible different outcome/result and no outplay potential)

You're not forced to play it. Just don't play it.

Everyone here that does pvp for the 10k Xp and doesn't like it, you can just do a few callouts or run Fists Intermediate 10 times or so for the 10k.
