@spIash_damageWhy does people hate this mode so much? I actually like it.
It’s geared toward a certain playstyle in a single mode and the Weekly Challenges for it need adjusting.
I gave up after 2 games and agree w/ the concept of I'd rather give money then torment myself w/ this mode. The whole guard the point, push the cart, etc concepts of the maps totally falls apart when large numbers of players are forced to drop everything and go for a chest which you won't get anyways. This feels even worse then the vanquish confirmed one that required us to screw over our teammates by focusing on stealing the orbs from their kills.
So far it seems identical to the last boss chest TT that many of us had concerns about. I'm guessing that the challenges are the same but can't get passed the first one to find out. When someone finds out, please let us know. 8v8 definitely hasn't improved the experience. Hard pass on this mode for enjoyment. I will give it more time because I do want the stars but I'm almost done doing things that I'm really not enjoying for them.
Well even though i hate trying to get the open the chest challenge, at least i got it first match. Unlike last time.
I know for a fact that this event has been released before. The boss chest seems to make a little difference to the overall game - except for the fact that some people get distracted going for the chest!
I know I do - especially because the first challenge requires physically opening the chest. There was a game I played today of this event - I was on plants, I was acorn, me and 3 other acorns were desperately trying to contest the chest. I managed to open the chest the 2nd time, but it meant they was no other plants trying to capture the objective, apart from the weeds.
The bosses can steer the game in either direction (make or help your team win or lose) - but generally bosses don't stick around for long so it doesn't always work that way!
Overall, I'd say this is a good event!🙂
