Let me beginn to say that this isnt supposed to be another nerf-whine thread!
I just found that in the light of the last events that there is nearly nothing left for casual players to do.
What do I mean with casual players? Ppl who just like to play a mission now and than. Ppl who dont want to compete in big PvP tournaments, for example because they dont have that much time on their hands. Ppl who cant plan their whole day after a mobile game.
In the beginning there was the prologue to play. That was really awesome because u had some characters and the missins gave u
a) covers and b) standart token that in turn gave you mostly 1* covers.
This was awesome, because u only needed the 1star chars to get through the missions and by completing missions you got covers for the chars you were actually using.
In the end they even gave you 2-3 covers of the same 2star heros, so you could use them as well! Even more awesome, because you felt like you actually achieved something over the missions!
And after that?
Well you had half a Thor and half a Storm so with wome luck and random heroic tokens from random events you were able to get a thor, a storm and a wolverine.. which was all you needed to do well in a tournament now and than.
So you did that and… thats pretty much where everything ended.
Because at some point you hat a collection of random 2star chars but nothing but competitive events left.
(And everyone you fought against was at the same point lol)
Which in turn meant that just doing some matches here and there was either not possible, because other ppl had just better teams and you never got enough points to win something usefull or the things you won got more and more useless to you, because you just ended up discarding tons and tons of covers you already had and just dont need anymore.
Than there were the PvE events, which was very cool to beginn with, because HEY STORYLINE!
But unfortunatly it turned out, that since the events are all timed you only have a certain amount of time to get the points for the progression rewards.. and everything else is competitive again. So no cool cover prices for casual players as well.
Dont get me wrong, I like doing an event now and than and I even manage go get something usefull sometimes, but it pretty much ends you with half a 3star character.. and no way to complete him.
Why? Because after the promotion event for the char ends, getting the covers you need will be impossible (–> hulk, punisher..).
So what can you do? And here is the frustrating part, because he answer is: NOTHING (except spend money lol)!
Standart token wont get you to finish any 3star chars.
Heroic Token are more often than not replaced with Special Token that only give you 3-4 different chars and more often than not you only get the 2star characters from the pack.. in the wrong color lol
And if you manage to get a heroic token.. its mostly the wrong character and or the wrong color.
Rewards in tournaments get appointed higher and higher points you have to reach, which it gets more and more difficult to do so.. for various reasons.
What I want to say is, that we are completely missing any chance to casualy play the game in the long run.
You can power through and get cool rewards, sure. But WTH wer we supposed to do in those 15minutes while we wait for the dinner to get ready? Or while on the bus?
There are no missions you can play now and than and that will give you something thats actually USEFULL in the end. You dont even have a long term aim you can work to finally archieve or hard über-bosses you can try and try again to make them drop something sweeeeet.
Because all there is are PvP events that dont even give the covers you want as rewards and PvE events that only promote the newest hero.. and leave you with another half-finished character.
.. and the more characters there are the worse your chances get to finish any of them..
Thats why I ask to PLEASE give players a chance to play this game long-term and casual as well.
I really dont care how, just that after a half finished hulk, a half finished punisher and a half finished patch… I just dont see much use in playing anymore, because all I can win is a half finished daredevil.. thats if Im lucky
