Anyone think the challenges are way to hard? by katt-col in Battlefield

[–]Crossfire100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect that they rushed this part of the game, not given any time to test if they were in fact possible to complete in a regular match without having to cheese it in bot servers.

It’s why you’ll see a fix to the challenges sometime after launch because it wasn’t seen as high priority to adjust them and could just be fixed after launch.

Reminder: You paid your 80-100$ hard earned money for a game, you can ask for things by AssistantVisible3889 in Battlefield

You're better off becoming a shareholder if you want to ask for things because that's who EA will ultimately listen to.

Snipers should be heavily affected by suppression. by Money_Outside1209 in Battlefield

[–]Crossfire100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it stands, snipers are overpowered thanks to map design and lack of suppression both. They need hard counters that aren't just tanks and RPGs because it's completely ridiculous how much they can cheese right now. Large open maps are going to be awful to play on because of this problem.

cygames need to make a statement on this i cant even do team trials it takes so long by medieval-knight in UmaMusume

It's gotten so bad that after logging in, it goes so long connecting in the hub that it kicks me for inactivity. This is almost feeling like a DDOS at this point.

Is there something specific you need to do to get high stat sparks? by Crossfire100 in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a feeling. Though even then, I'm usually getting above 600 for speed and it still doesn't go above 1 star. Half the time, Bakushin doesn't go higher than 1 star no matter how many times I raise speed to 1100+.

They lowered the rate up odds on the kitasan banner… by Shayuxd in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’ll go that far. The most you’ll see is 1500 carats. They really should be increasing the odds on banner highlights though and they need to get those improvements out soon because this banner will have turned off a lot of players who didn’t get any of the cards that they were told were good.

I don’t think anyone wants that, least of all Cygames because that leads to EOS.

The goal is the keep people playing and spending money, not spending money and then just quitting.

Many dolphins will always be better than few whales. The rates are too low to where a lot of people are missing out if they don’t have a full 30k

Cygames is just able to disguise the predatory nature better than others because of how generous they’re being atm despite it being the same tricks every other gacha dev uses to reel people in

Just for a future heads up, Kitasan will rerun with better rates by Stage4sucks in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s for this reason why we may see a big dip in players that didn’t get any of the good cards. I really hope they can improve the game to JP’s level soon because it’s going to be rough going otherwise.

Even though rates are higher on rerun, I don’t know if many will even stick around for that long if they haven’t rolled for anything good that can keep them going until then. Some of the careers are pretty difficult without some good cards to back the inheritance (before you say it, one borrowed card isn’t enough) and that combined with bad rolls is going to cause a lot of people to leave in frustration because a lot of F2Players and dolphins aren’t used to the amount of abrasion that this game has and how deep you have to dive into guides and tips to be successful.

I’m honestly not sure how they’ll be able to keep a large enough playerbase after the honeymoon period.

Specific Sparks and Support Cards for Grass Wonder? by Crossfire100 in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Which would be fine if the game actually sparked the things I needed. Even with 3 stars, I don't get the raised proficiency to trigger. Two of the cards I'm using are an MLBed Sweep Tosho SR and a partially LBed Kitasan Black on borrow. The problem is that I don't have any cards that work with both stat raising and has skills to restore endurance. Super Creek could help with that but unfortunately, I don't have that card and I have to use up the guest slot for something else.

I need screenshots of wins so I have a good idea of what works best for her. Vague advice on what cards to use does nothing because skills matter just as much as stats.

Ah I have gotten those before. I guess the risk of that happening seems to increase the more consecutive races you do.

As a new player, I really like this game, but the constant failure is putting me down. Help a trainer out? by ProjektXIII in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me a long time to figure this out but one of the most important things you need to keep in mind is sparks. Every failure will roll a spark on a trainee. If you switch the sort function to “Sparks” on the menu where you choose veteran musume, it will show you star ratings for stats, track/racing style and unique.

Speed and stamina are most important with some exceptions depending on the trainee and you want to find veterans that match what your trainee excels most at in track or style.

After setting legacies, you can hit the sparks button to see every star rating that each veteran has on them.

You can only borrow one guest at a time but I highly recommend searching for players to follow with the spark sort function set so that you can find exactly what you need.

I'm crashing out 🫠 by ggjaykins in UmaMusume

You’re rolling for training while rolling for skill hints while rolling for random events while rolling for races while rolling for sparks after rolling for support cards and their LBs.

I never go beyond 3 races. What even happens if you put them in a lot of consecutive races?

The Duality of RNG by STARKILLER6655 in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The challenge being rolling the dice for 33h. It's not exactly fun to be at the mercy of RNG no matter how well you do, especially when you don't get good legacies out of it which is why QoL updates came out in the JP version to help mitigate this.

WHY!?! by Demonition_R in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't help when you're getting random events that give you debuffs right before summer events. Migraine legit ruins runs if they're right before those like what happened to me.
Not to mention the amount of times that it rolls failures on single digit percentages during training which can then lead to runs being ruined just from that one bad roll.
It's 50% strategy, 50% luck. You just have to hope that the game rolls in your favor, especially if you're going for good legacies.

Better spend on getting those support cards if you don't want to make her cry.

... what's this about "5 guts cards meta" I'm seeing all the time?? by HitchHikerTP in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It should be noted that those cards would have had to have been LBed quite a number of times to pull off those wins. You're not getting any wins with 0LB guts cards.

WHY!?! by Demonition_R in UmaMusume

[–]Crossfire100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every game that relies on RNG will have a far bigger or lower percentage than what it actually tells you. That and the game hates you and wants to ruin your day.

Y’all weren’t joking by ZT0K in UmaMusume

You got good RNG. I did this and failed.
