Does this game have a future?
>>
>>1343738
Too little content. I am at blackrock mountain and only content left is to do heroics and grind dungeons
>>
>>1343742
This is true. I got bored and dropped it half way through heroics, doing every map 5 times to progress is just too tedious. PvP is also boring as fuck, there's no variety at all.
>>
I doubt it. I'm hard stuck on the hard missions in winterspring and the devilsaur queen. So no gold coming in. My main appeal for the game was it being clash with a big focus on pve but pvp mogs quests with xp and I'm not a fan of the pvp.
>>
>>1343782
>no gold coming in
You get 300 gold for completing a map on heroic (doing it on all 5 factions) so try to do Elvynn on heroic, it's pretty easy.
>>

its only 200g, unless you pay pig

Chickens are really underrated against the later bosses that mostly spam single-target tanks and only weak air/AoE

>>
>>1344485
They likely WILL nerf/buff talents frequently to force whales into upgrading their units more to get different talents.

they're probably gonna introduce a 4th talent and an extra rarity level pretty soon. It will be called "mythic" or whatever the fuck comes after legendary and the new talent is going to be incredibly overpowered so whales will have to spend a pretty penny to unlock it. Once enough whales have fully upgraded their stuff, they're gonna repeat the process.

If this is their monetization plan, they have a money printing machine in their hands
>>
>>1345691
Is this how other mobile games do it? Rumble is my first p2w mobile game, so I don't know the trends.
>>
>>1345691
but what content would require this?
>>
>>1345705
pvp
you can use talents in pvp, and whales are frothing at the mouth at the thought of climbing with yet another mindless, overpowered, overlevelled unit that will win games with no brainpower required whatsoever

also raids are coming soon, and those require really high level units aswell, i'm talking about epic units atleast
>>
>>1345693
seen it a thousand times, and it would even be mild by industry standards. Mobile games have no floor, they always manage to reach new lows
>>
>>1345705
>>1345717
What I have a feeling they are going to do instead is just release a bunch of talents, most if not all are going to be shit so you whale the slot machine to get the talents you want and maybe even choose one more roll over choosing something else tempting you.

It's true. I work at Blizzard and it's my job to personally make your life more difficult by rigging the game against you.

They need to add some kind of endgame, it gets really boring after unlocking all the units and heroes and completing the campaign. Hope that raids won't be just one-off thing.

yeah the emote needed 16k pvp points, given that you can only get them with 3 leaders total that means you need 5-6k points with your top 3 leaders... given how p2w the game gets after 3k it's not surprising that only a few people managed to get it

A patch actually just came out.
https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/warcraftrumble/24042878/patch-notes-for-update-3-0-0
Though it's mostly bug fixes and only a couple of balance changes.
>>
>>1361884
it's also bugged as shit. you can do the arclight surge on repeat as many times as you like. you get no gold until you relaunch the game and then it gives you the total accumulated amount. I've just farmed 1k gold spamming the first map over and over again
>>
>>1362435

I guess they're patching this in emergency high-priority mode and turned off the game. Must've hurt their bottom line pretty badly.

>>1362496
Now it's fixed already, got it single new arclight zone that is lasting for three days. I wonder what they will do with all the extra gold and minis that people got.

>>1365153
100% can confirm this game cheats. Spent all day doing pvp and somehow had an unusual easy time climbing for a bit. Now all my opponents are literally throwing out units like it's nothing. My laat match they somehow spawned 4 abominations with in the first 15 seconds of game and didn't capturen a single gold node. Even with dungeons and missions one moment it will be piss easy, then the next time around it will be impossibly hard to just impossible to beat when nothing has changed.

Did we lose 1 arclight zone a week?
Used to be 2 on Sunday and Thursday but recently I got one last Thursday 1 Sunday 1 Tuesday and again 1 today. Fuck this game.

Wait was there a balance update? Did they nerf talents? That would tilt me if I was still playing.
>>
>>1397270
I kind of understand why they switched the icon. Nobody likes quirky pink-haired gnomes, they're disgusting and annoying. If you're WoW player you kinda got used to that as part of not-so-serious setting. But if someone is not familiar with Warcraft and they see some "lol i'm so crazy" danger hair feminist as app icon in app store they're gonna skip it in a heartbeat and never look back.
Honestly, it's surprising they went with her as a mascot and app icon in the first place. Just shows what kind of "people" were in-charge, and that they are fired now.
>>
>>1397642
...I liked the gnome.

>>1397270
I tried finding what the nerf was, but all I could gather was it was a pvp balance change that fucked pve, right? Where her impact no longer kills the majority of most enemies, even at same/lower levels now.
>>
>>1397713
https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/warcraftrumble/24056543/hotfix-1-31-2024
Moderate nerf to the the crash damage and a big nerf to both of the popular talents.
>>
>>1397762
That nerf to stealth is absolutely disgusting.
>>
>>1397762
kek imagine getting a talent having it nerfed and having to buy the same unit what 8 more times to buy another talent.
>>
>>1399151
I'm not doing that shit. But yeah, they nerfed her so bad that they KNEW no one would use her, to the point where they had to remove her as the poster girl for the app. It's no longer the SAFE pilot as the app icon, it's grommash >>1397270


But yeah she's basically unplayable now. Can't instakill AoE packs, and loses stealth immediately if she targets a unit, so no guaranteed free hit on anything anymore.
>>
>mini takes 12'000 experience to level up
>do a quest

and that's only to bring it from level 17 to 18
Considering i can't choose which mini i want to level, i'm stuck doing quests for all the other 54 minis in the game until the mini i want to level up shows up again in the quest rotation, and even then if i do the quest it's only another +70 experience

how much is it to go from 18 to 19? 24'000 experience? then 48'000? considering you need like level 27 or more to beat onyxia now, how the FUCK are normal people supposed to get deep breath now?

Also, the 1gb patch from the other day straight up broke quest/surge AI anyways. It blatantly cheats and spawns perfect counters with zero cooldown or respect to gold. And every time a gold node refreshes, an enemy kobold or miner is spawned to insta mine it.

where exactly did it all go wrong for rumble? obviously their plan was to dethrone clash royale which failed horrendously. even at 8+ years old, clash royale is still quite popular whilst rumble gained zero traction at all. what happened?
>>
>>1445061
It's too far away from what apparently makes Clash able to survive. There are too many units in Rumble, they're too individually complex, maps are too big, and nobody plays PvP to keep the whales happy that their money is doing something.
>>
>>1445061
After the novelty runs off there's literally 0 interesting and replayable content to keep people hooked. They didn't add any events and raids are nowhere to be seen. Their idea of new seasonal content are EMOTES.
Dungeons are pointless after you get all your leaders to full gold, heroics are one-time thing and when you're done with them there is absolutely no point in repeating the levels, surges are boring and annoying and if you're a whale there's no reason at all to bother (60 gold lmao), quests are a fucking joke and a waste of time. The only real endgame activity is PvP, which sucks balls and is not engaging at all, and even as a whale you don't get the dopamine rush of stomping noobs because there aren't any noobs playing at higher ratings, and even your fully upgraded army is not that much better than some noob with only greens. This game was done by people who have no idea about mobile gaming, and it shows.
t.whale
>>
>>1445061
>>1445175
Also the dungeons are good in theory, relics add a lot of cool and unpredictable effects, but they fucked them up in two major ways:
- being forced to do the same one with only one faction of leaders for a week is fucking retarded
- rewards becoming totally insignificant after upgrading all unit slots to gold
Dungeons could be pretty fun endgame activity if they added bigger variety of them, abandoned the weekly rotation, and gave them better rewards that do not become irrelevant so quickly. They could maybe also add a leaderboard, like showing who got to the highest level and time of clear (or something) to make it a little bit competitive and an alternative to garbage PvP mode.
>>
>>1445175
>>1445179
one thing that still baffles me... they obviously went pretty hard on world of warcraft theme, but didn't include one of the more important aspects of wow, if not the most important - items
i imagine this game would have better replayability if quests/heroics/dungs randomly dropped items you could give to leaders and make them stronger, like in wow
would be a good vertical progression, currently after leader hits max level the progression is finished

>>
>>1445061
There's a massive difficulty spike as soon as you unlock heroics, even for regular regions. Game basically forces you to paypig or spend literal days trying to grind quests for exp to level up a single leader's build minis just to beat one or two bosses. PvP isn't accessible to F2P players. The AI straight up cheats as an intended punishment mechanic for winning too much. In fucking singleplayer. So if you win too many quests or beat too many bosses, nope. Cheat time. It will cheat and force you to lose x number of times before it resets and returns to regular difficulty. Rerolling talents is too expensive for F2P. They also nerfed the most popular F2P talent and mini, because haha fuck you gotta try and get the piggies to pay for a reroll, and it just blew up in their face and killed any remaining goodwill the remnants of the f2p community had for the game, and everyone left.

They were banking on this being a P2W success from the get go based purely on IP recognition, and designed the game around P2W as such. But surprise surprise, the attempted force pay2play cliff that everyone hits when heroics unlock caused 99% of the players to quit without spending the $20+ blizzard was expecting you to shell out to try and progress. 1% paid a bit more to progress as per blizz's intentions, but out of that 1%, only a literal handful whaled the way blizz wanted and maxed everything. And surprise, those players quit, too, despite the massive $12k+ spent irl investing in to the game, because no one else is there to do endgame PvP. They basically decided to piss on both parts of the community and expected everyone to drink it up like holy water; but instead everyone moved the fuck out of the way.

>>1445837
But that's wrong. They changed her because they nerfed the fuck out of her, and didn't want the game's posterchild to be a character nobody used. SAFE pilot was in basically every single build pre nerf.
>>
>>1445861
gee I wonder why they nerfed her in the first place... maybe because they wanted to remove her as posterchild?
>>
>>1445872
Because the whale PvPers cried about her, actually. And there was nothing wrong with having a gnome as the mascot. Unless you're mad about the pink hair, in which case, you've not been playing WoW long, have you? The pink pigtails on gnomes is iconic. It's like, the default hairstyle since 2004, dude.
