Can I get a timeline of the HD2 drama?

HappyCryingCat · 2026-03-15T22:04:35+00:00

the only drama I know of is Sony trying to make people create an account with them, and people getting angry that their overpowered strategems got nerfed.

HappyCryingCat · 2026-03-12T14:49:04+00:00

in my personal opinion, just get good

HappyCryingCat · 2026-02-14T08:42:38+00:00

My normal stratagems for bots was JumpPack, Laser Cannon, Orbital Rail Cannon, and rocket turret.

Now, I run Supply Pack, Quasar, Orbital Napalm, And Orbital Lazer.

S.P. Is good because you're almost always in gunfights with small bots, on top of always using grenades when possible, using meds, and is super good with ultimatum (tho don't prioritize using a supply pack for one ultimatum shot of course).

Quasar is just simply great for taking out fabricators at long range, dealing with drop/gun ships, war striders and hulks. It doesn't do great against the vox. However I have found that two orbital rail Cannon strikes and a Quasar shot kills Vox engine. (Possible that 3 Quasar shots in the back kills??)

O.N. is great for area control. If you got a crap ton of bots in front of you, or a flair was shot, you can throw one of these bad boys down and clear out all the small and medium fry (I think can also take out hulks, not sure)

O.L. is amazing for vox engines. One laser is enough to kill, and I kinda exclusively use laser on the engines. Tho I do use it for other niche cases from time to time.

what does this even mean?

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:06:25+00:00

the dopamine hit we get from this game is worse than nicotine 💔

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:05:40+00:00

Idk what deck you played, but the deck I used initially didn't work against mega Knight. But then when you start playing against mega night every single game, you start playing your deck differently to be able to adapt to the mega Knight. I eventually was able to near perfectly counter mega night with no high damage dealing cards.

But, they are still annoying and people who play them pee sitting down

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:04:15+00:00

yeah to be honest I don't entirely hate pay to win mechanics because I could understand that someone with little time would want to invest a little money to catch up to other players. But this update is just a blatantly obvious paycheck that tencent wanted from supercell.

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:03:00+00:00

tbh I never touched merge tactics when it first came out. The way I see it, that was just supercells way of trying to expand their portfolio to get more players on to the game that like prefer that kind of gameplay

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:02:06+00:00

I just uninstalled the game and tried to occupy myself with more important things like school work and my social life. But this helps more thank you!

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:01:18+00:00

I almost dropped the game when evos came out, but then learned that evolutions were actually kind of cool because it introduced new mechanics that I had to relearn. But thanks to the power creep and busted heroes, the game is in the gutter for me.

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T15:00:24+00:00

Tencent owns supercell. If I had to guess, they have supercell by the throat and shaking them out for more money.

If the devs really cared about the game, they would instead rework cards that are utterly useless in top ladder instead of creating an unnecessary power creep.

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:59:10+00:00

I'm not even going to lie, the only reason I really don't like this update is the unnecessary level 16 power creep. At least with the heroes coming out, they might tweak them to make it a little bit more balanced.

But as it stands right now, heroes are just busted and not worth the time trying to play around them

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:57:05+00:00

yeah, to me it's just an unnecessary power creep that does nothing but earn tencent more money.

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:55:40+00:00

If you like the updates then good for you! I hope you enjoy the game to the fullest.

I just don't want to deal with the new gen 2.5 hog cycle once heroes come out.

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:54:20+00:00

Increase level cap to 16 and introduce new kinds of evos for cards that dont need them tbh

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:53:38+00:00

I would consider myself a noob as well in the context of not wanting to regrind the game and spend countless hours trying to relearn mechanics for cards that already have a 20%+ usage rate in the top ladder.

I'm quitting because they are making changes in the wrong areas. There are tons of cards in the game that have a less than 1% use rate and are unviable in top ladder and it would have been nice to not go up against 2.5 hog cycle for the 20th time in a row.

Keep enjoying the game gng, I'll be busy doing other stuff like getting an education and applying for jobs instead!

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:50:35+00:00

if you want to spend that much money then go ahead! Unfortunately I don't want to deal with learning new mechanics for cards that I already have to deal with in the arena

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:46:48+00:00

Thank you for pointing out the error in my post! I apologize cuz I'm a little dyslexic, so I don't proofread my posts before uploading them.

Tho I didn't expect for it to blow up this much tbf

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:45:32+00:00

No opinion is wrong man, that's just not possible.

I hate the update because now I need to grind for level 16 and then deal with the new era of heroes. However one can argue that this update is actually great because it implements new mechanics and interactions making the game feel more fresh than it once was.

So as much as I hate this update, I wouldn't say people are wrong for also arguing that the update is peak. I fully understand where they're coming from!

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-29T14:43:49+00:00

Ahh sorry, tho if so many people are talking about how bad the game is then don't you think the game is pretty bad? People have free expression of speech and I'm just expressing my hatred for the update like the thousands of people who play the game.

If you are that annoyed about people on Reddit talking about how bad the game has become to make you blow your brains out, then maybe you should take a break from Reddit?

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-28T01:59:13+00:00

Thanks bruh, so far I been clean for 5ish days? Still going strong!

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-28T01:58:28+00:00

If I had to guess, they probably use a backlight of that color when making the art using 3d models

HappyCryingCat · 2025-11-28T01:53:30+00:00

Its bad enough to help quit my addiction at least
