Gamemode: Tournaments
Definitely a great gamemode for making new friends, in this new gamemode players are put with a partner and fight against other pairs of players in a classic format: tourneys. Four teams of two go head to head in 2-part battles, and only the best combination of heroes and friendship disks will be victorious. When there’s only one team remaining, the former teammates duel for the win!
- Works similarly to heist
- The main challenge is smart selection of heroes, as players are matched within 5 levels of each other, and divided up according to their ranking for team score, and auto is forcibly enabled.
- Everyone in the contest watches the matches in real time.
- Health doesn’t regen between fights, but energy does.
- 60 second breaks between fights to chat with other contestants and switch out your heroes.
I know invasion is in the works, and this wouldn’t happen for a long time even if you did use this. Maybe in April or July?
Stamina and Grinding
The current amount of grinding is insane. I have two P4 heroes, and they both require badges that need over 100 chips to craft. It takes about 40 stamina to get 1-2 chips, if I’m lucky. Not to mention I use heroes that you can only get from the campaign. A way to tackle this without making it way too easy for new players or forcing players to join a huge, pressured guild would be to reward players for completing chapters of the campaign, from chapter 7 and up.
- Reducing stamina cost by 2 on normal and 4 on elite
- Increasing stamina storage by 1
- 2.5 seconds off the time it takes for stamina to regen (It may not sound like much, but it adds up)
- Increased drop rates raised (Purple/Orange chips raised to 1/2, hero chips raised from 1/3 to 2/3)
- Rewards stacked with each chapter, drop rates only increased for the completed chapters
The drop rates and reduced stamina cost only apply to the completed chapter.
Heist Afk Player Fix
A way to deal with afk players without an abusable kick system. To initiate a kick, the player must be inactive for 60 seconds or more. After the kick has been started, a message appears on the player’s screen that will kick the player in 30 seconds unless dismissed. If player’s heroes are in a battle (or being called to one), the heroes will disappear when the battle is finished.
War Matching
Matching guilds based solely on how much they win isn’t working… I have a two person guild with someone else who’s inactive a lot, so I don’t stand much of a chance against larger guilds. But this tiny guild I’m in just got matched against a level 3 guild with war perks and over 40 players. Immediate annihilation. War matchmaking needs to take the number of players in each guild into consideration.
Costumes
Yet another way to use hero chips, costumes would be a way for paying/hardcore players to show off/use up chips without any advantages over other players. Costumes unlock when a hero is 6-starred and orange, and can be bought for 100 chips.
