RE: Splinterlands Ranked Reward Changes - Introducing Glint & The Reward Shop!
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Additionally, as mentioned in this post, winners of Modern format battles will receive 50% more Glint than winners of Wild format battles (assuming the same rating and other modifiers) in order to encourage more players to play in that format.
Im really not a fan of this. I always found Modern to be less fun than Wild and now because of bots old cards will further lose on value because you cant earn as much in Wild as in Modern.
Why take this path? Why punish players?
The rest of this is fine. A new token is probably an overkill. There should be a way to merge a bunch of this stuff all together and affect rates.
Merits and glint could probably be the same thing and supply adjusted based on game mode.
Why take this path? Why punish players?
This. 100% this. Made a similar comment on yesterday's post. I can't understand why the shots in the foot, between good overall changes. And any new player will think twice in investing knowing that, things staying the same, after some time the only way of not having rewards nerfed and playing in bot heaven is to invest more and more.
I have no Guild anymore, there is no PVE, my Cards are not suited for Modern, no clue what those changes all mean honestly. I dropped everything into the rental market, waste of time at this point.
You see it as a punishment and I see it as a reward for players who acquire new cards to play in modern.
We must not forget that it is a company that has to make money and to do so it releases new editions that it wants to sell, which is why they encourage the modern format to encourage sales as well. We always see everything from our position but we have to put ourselves a little in the company's shoes.
It is a punishment, all cards become old, if they lose their value, there's not much point buying new cards. No doubt they will have to change this again, shame they keep making stupid mistakes, I hope that trend stops soon.
Agreed not a fan of it either. I only play wild. Not sure why you would punish people that have older cards like beta etc you know the ones that supported from the start and still support.
