Well, maybe a small polish around the look could bring it back? :D
What about Spooky!
What do you mean by more limited?
Our pools of champs are slightly smaller
Let's do a LOL MMO next please, thanks haha. The Runeterra map would be insane to play through.
Dude.. I know..
I'm hoping Amaz and hafu got invited too.
They did!
Could you explain why you made that decision? Getting a 3 star in dota auto chess isn't an every game thing, with less units in the pool it could become even more frustrating :/
I'd wait to play it a bit before we get worried about pool size. We aren't trying to block 3 star units, we want people to get them :P Give it a shot first and then let me know how it feels.
yeah for sure, excited to see what your take on auto chess is. Any chance it's coming to the pbe this week?
I don't actually know if we're released the timeline yet. So I'm going to hold off on that question :P
If anyone from the team is reading this, great job and great start. However please please please make it so upgrading a character uses a skin. This is my biggest feedback atm.
Hey there! The reason we didn't do the skin thing was so down the road, we could add a trait of Star guardians or Frozen and use the ice skins. It gives us like 1000 pieces to work with instead of just 140 pieces to work with.
Thanks for the reply! Not sure if you can share, but any plans to make the pieces look different rather than just larger? It takes some of the power feeling away imo
So right now, we have gold tint to them, the health bar is different and they grow bigger. Now, saying that if it is STILL an issue, there is always options for us to pivot and change how we show them. But that's what we have right now, let me know tomorrow when you see some active new gameplay how they feel.
That's honestly a pretty terrible reason when units having a different look when upgrading is such a large part of what makes this type of game fun. Going right back to it's origin as a pokemon dota mod. I hope some serious reconsideration is put into that especially since you only need to use 2 skins + base per unit not all of them.
I don't think you're wrong when you say it's a part of the game that is fun. I do not believe that it has to be a certain way. It's something we are looking into, we aren't locked into 1 thing forever, we will iterate, look at feedback and go from there.
Have you guys considered a banner system for the upgraded units? Almost similar to how our ranked armor works but as some kind of hovering icon/base for the champion.
We've looked at a bunch of things. I do not know exactly what you mean by banner system.
Wouldn't 1000 pieces with pure RNG make the game really crazy to play?
I didn't mean we'd have 1000 pieces in the game haha. I meant when we are deciding what sets to do, how many pieces, if we only looked at champions we'd have 140 options. When we look at champions plus skins we have SO many more.
