lol brode’s been excusing away the card unlocking issues because nexus events were coming and were going to be a fun new way to get cards! nexus events are of course just a stapled on gacha those are of course worst case numbers, the average will be around half of that which is still obscene this poo poo is dead on arrival and that’s sad because beneath the slimy monetization there’s a really fun little game

so one card, jane, is exclusive to this nexus 'event' and won't enter the pool to be obtainable via collection level for at least a month, but hey there's a guaranteed 4-star reward every ten pulls at the gacha! what's a 4-star reward? who fuckin knows, that parlance ain't used anywhere else in the game and the ? doesn't tell you. maybe a 4-star reward is a card! makes sense right, you have to buy the $40 bundle of gold to have enough to do ten pulls if you didn't have any gold laying around, so yea a card! lol nope o also the card you get for buying the monthly season pass is exclusive to that purchase for that month and the following month, so if you want the meta-defining wave card from last season you still have to wait till august before you even have a chance at getting it randomly from collection level rewards Wheeee fucked around with this message at 21:42 on Jul 20, 2022 |

Dukberry posted:I feel a little schadenfreude right now. I know betas are largely demos at this point, but the devs for this game made no attempt to appear to be interested in addressing beta tester feedback. If the game crashes and burns because they dug too greedily, I chose to simply think that is Very Funny. they've been ignoring all feedback regarding progression and monetization this entire time in the official discord the admin went on a comment deleting and banning spree earlier in the ask-the-devs channel as well lol ben brode is a psychopath for those of you who haven't played snap, fast upgrades are literally a trap that wastes new players' credits. they allow you to upgrade a card without using boosters, but it costs double the credits that upgrade would normally cost, and once you're beyond the first couple days of playing you become heavily limited by credits after the initial deluge while boosters just keep stacking up as you play the snap reddit is on fire and multiple streamers/youtubers for the game have already put up videos stating that they're done with it lol

it's terrible for people who haven't managed to catch the deck defining cards they want to use too, which becomes an increasing problem as you move up the card pools. they also keep nerfing all the good pool 1 cards lol snap is a super fun game with a profoundly awful progression/monetization system that is going to kill it they've been hyping "Nexus Events" for over a month now and they aren't even events, just a literal loving gacha

it owns when a bot reads your played cards and slaps a cosmo down out of nowhere and fuckin lmao at that post about this game's dumpster progression system being refreshing and designed based on some higher principle than making absolutely everything they reasonably can random so that your latent gambling addiction is constantly being tickled good luck throwing random poo poo together without key cards once you hit pool 3 matchmaking

chaosbreather posted:Exactly. You went into the game expecting a completely different type of game, even though Brode was clear and explicit from the start that he wanted to replicate that middle school experience that you say you hated. So it’s weird you did that. if this is a bit it’s a good one tbh if it isn’t idk condolences

fondly reminiscing of my childhood days spent on the playgound grinding ladder games against bots to unlock new cards since it was physically impossible to trade cards with other people while new cards cost an increasing amount of money the more you bought

Go RV! posted:After having previously stalled out at about 55, I pushed to the end of Pool 1 yesterday, where I finally got Bishop and re-tuned my Zoo deck (I also underestimated Angela). Now, I have been slicing through ranks. Currently at 67, and I think there's an outside chance I can hit 80 before the end of the season if I go hard for it.

Unless things have changed in the past ~6 weeks or so that I hadn't been playing you're never actually out of bot tier, you just get fewer of them and the ones you do get swing wildly between winning via cheating and doing blatant misplays to give you the win. As to retreating, no most people aren't accustomed to the Snap metagame and treat it like Hearthstone or Magic. Snap plays a lot like a casino card game ala poker in that you are (Should be) more concerned with your cube bankroll than whether you win any given hand, and against humans the game's real depth is in the snap mechanic. Snapping/cubes are the underlying genius of the game, it tickles the brain just like real gambling.

Bots also have normal human names, and use random card cosmetics If you see a card with completely black and white art that's a bot

Initially because because there weren’t a lot of players, now largely to ease you into the game making you feel good about massacring bots, rather than having you bounce off after getting owned by players right off.

Serperoth posted:Regarding the cards you never draw earlier than some turn (most obviously America, but I've seen a few Domino around too), where are they supposed to be within your deck? I've had America be destroyed by cards that destroy the top card of my deck sometimes so I wonder how that works To use American Chavez as an example, she’s shuffled into your deck same as every card, but cannot be naturally drawn before turn six. What this looks like mechanically is that say on turn two Chavez is on top and would be drawn, the game instead draws the card beneath her and she stays on top, staying on top until either turn six when her card text allows her to be drawn naturally, or when another effect in game pulls her. You can go an entire game with Chavez being the top card on your deck until turn six, just drawing the card under her each turn. Because of how this works your Chavez will get eaten more consistently by effects like Yondu destroying your top card. edited because jubilee changed Wheeee fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Oct 22, 2022 |

zoo decks like that are about as consistent as decks get in snap, right up until you start running into killmonger without knowing what else you have, i'd consider swapping out domino for something with a more useful effect

Unless it's changed recently they can also see what you have and what you're playing, so they can perfect counter you. I've had games where a cheating bot that was perfectly reading my moves just abruptly gave me the win as well.
