@ToastedSarnie and @FRC_Foxman You need 231 bulbs for the Valenbrainz Prize Map! This is a significant increase from the general 178-182 prize bulbs you need in a month, I can see what's kind of going on here.
More Bulbs > Less People are going to Complete it > Less people will save up for bulbs for the next month > People will overtime lose bulbs > People must buy them or start missing out on prizes.
Ok … well, I don't find it a rubbish idea (as you only need 115 bulbs for the Corn legendary upgrade if taking the shortest route), but I can see people not being happy with this, especially those collectors (like me); if the developers are going to go through with this idea, perhaps don't this in March as well? Just a consideration!

That's the kind of crap that turns me away from games. I barely even have the time to complete these maps, especially since they stopped giving us 30 bulbs halfway thru. Even unlocking all four character a 2nd time helped tremendously that one time they did it... but I can't wrap my head around how some of you end up with 50 extra bulbs after completing a map. If they don't make prize bulbs much easier to collect. It's one less game I'll be playing daily... and one less franchise I'll purchase games from again.

Get good at BA. More Bulbs than I know what to do. Really. I expect to finish the next map in less than one week.

@spIash_damageWhat's the bonus amount of XP you get in BA? Didn't Popcap add some kind of multplier?

You’d have to ask @dwooten77 about the XP. I know you get 200 xp PER round played (rounds are typically quick) and I think an additional 500 xp for winning the match. Each boast is 100xp and when you get on a role with character selection/don’t die for whatever reason, kill streak bonuses carry on from round to round until the end of the match. I just noticed this part last night so not sure of the bonuses but on a 9 streak, I saw +175xp 9 streak bonus .....?
I maxed out the last map within 3 days of playing but didn’t play BA the entire month. I still don’t know the exacts and could be off a bit on my numbers but the amount of Bulbs I collect daily is INSANE.
@TheSprinter85 I think my reply to @ippig will address your question, too?
- 6 years ago@AWMaxSterling It does of course depend on how much & what you play, but up to now I've found it relatively easy enough to complete the map & top up my bulbs through doing the all of the daily & character challenges along with maybe 4-5 games of Ops a day?
Until recently, I've had the added incentive of investing time into play so I could finish mastering all my characters, but now that's done, I admit I think I'm probably going to find it harder to do that from this point on.
Without changes to Ops, which I've done to death, TT which is . . . well, as it is (and sorry @spIash_damage but BA would only ever be my thing with friends 😥) I'm now struggling to find enough to keep me putting time into the game.- 6 years ago
@ToastedSarnie @AWMaxSterling
Yeah I find this too.... some days I hardly play but still manage to complete it early... and most months lose a lot of bulbs due to the cap... so wish you could gift them to those who don't have the time.... seems such a waste of bulbs.
but like you am finding it harder and harder to find something I want to do, and the not being awarded bulbs you have earned doesn't help either.
I am, however, finding the new map fun if I manage to stick Turf long enough to get it in rotation.
Hoping very much that they drop the Phase 3 of Ops asap and surprise us with a super fun Ops... different locations would be great... and difficulty... and... and..... well we have discussed all those wants/issues before 🙂
Oh CROSSPLAY CROSSPLAY CROSSPLAY would be so welcome. 🤞🤔😃- TheSprinter856 years agoHero
@spIash_damage How fast do you get Prize Bulbs by doing Battle Arena?
Getting prize bulbs, unlike some other players, can be a tedious thing for me and I sometimes struggle to complete the festival prize map, but I normally complete it anyway. If there's a way that I could possibly improve my way of earning prize bulbs faster, any ideas would be welcomed, especially because this month's prize map is going to require more prize bulbs to complete!
I don't play Battle Arena very often, because I can't often find full lobbies, but am looking forward to ranked battle arena in March and am happy to try playing on Battle Arena more often if you can earn more Prize Bulbs!
@asabaida The more features we receive, the merrier! 😇
