First freakin event that im interested in, but 8 vs 8 is kinda meh..
Ay I got some feedback 😉
Problems I have found with this boss chest gimmick.1. Usually, by the time the chest comes out, the objectively has nearly been fully pushed/captured.
2.While defending, so many players focus on capturing the chest that they forget about the objective. I've had situations where my team will leave the almost captured point to grab the chest. All the enemies ignore the chest and push the objective while noone is there. Yes, we got the chest, but the boss despawns instantly because we lost the point.
....
oof thats all I remember disliking ]:PIf the chest opened faster and spawned more frequently maybe it would take care of those issues :P

I completely understand your point. I actually enjoy less people than 12 per team so this is right up my alley. 😎
@chogath_player do you think the team balancing (lack there of) played a part in your observation or do you have any ideas to improve on the current setup. Thanks for the elaborate feedback!
- @spIash_damage yes 100% the team balancing definitely plays a huge part in this. All the higher ranked players know to just focus the objective. The lower rank plates are more interested in the c o o l b o s s c h e s t.
Whichever team has the low rank plates is more likely to lose from what Ive seen. In every game I saw FarQm8 he just focussed the objective. Hes high rank plate. While we pushed everyone on the enemy team was more interested in the chest. So games are over quicklyNow I did unlock the chest myself a couple times and won the games, but thats usually when Im on attack. Its when the defending team leaves their objective open to get the chests ]:P
