Broken characters

So why don't the developers want players to progress by leveling up their R9 characters as quickly as possible? Or maybe my Rotta in G12 can beat LV+clones (all R7)? Maybe they gave tokens for leveling up characters from the New Republic era to G13? No, they don't. Not because it's unprofitable, but because it would break the game's code. After all, as they say:

Работает кое-как - не лезь, а то сломаешь ещё больше.

But that's not the topic of this thread. That's a topic for a future thread, when new bugs appear that the developers don't want to fix.

Watch videos, and realize that your era characters aren't max level with maxed skills yet.  

Coliseum and Era characters being stuck there for months before we can actually use them is stupid, but that's where they are and you don't level up their abilities easily.

The fact that CG expects us to spend money to upgrade characters we can't even use to the fullest extent being despicable and deceitful is a different point, but CG's been taken over by the Sith from EA who don't concern themselves with such ethical issues.

I don’t see that at all in your threads.

I see you claiming things are broken when really you just don’t understand them. I see you wanting there to be no requirement to think for yourself. I see you wanting missions / battles to be nothing more than a relic level check. 

Even in your final sentence, I see someone who doesn’t like it when the game moves forward and introduces units that change previously existing counters. Part of “player skill” is keeping up with how the game develops when new units are added - but you don’t think you should need to do that.

But saying BitDynasty’s results can’t be replicated just because your 5 attempts couldn’t replicate it is just wrong. You maybe couldn’t, but plenty of others have. Your Mara and Loaned units are exactly the same as mine and I got to 14% on T2 of Jotaz - a little bit short of BitDynasty’s score but it’s clearly possible to do it. 

That's why I wrote that it's necessary to remove RNG from bosses. I can't even come close to the results BitDinasty shows.

So the developers don't know their game. They don't know what the units they're introducing are capable of. They don't know the squads they're introducing them for. Because before introducing a character, they're tested in different squads. Everywhere, but not in this game, where changing one parameter can cause the entire game to fall apart.

In this case, it applies to bosses who, with 1 attack at the beginning of the battle, destroy the entire squad and the attempt is lost.

No

Because we're already playing a game where the outcome depends solely on the relic level. Relic delta, broken counter-squads, aggression towards newcomers (3M vs. 11M on GAC, 300M guilds vs. 700M guilds on TW) and soon.

If you look at my threads that I've created or am creating, you'll see that I want to play a game where player skill matters more than character leveling. I know that Ugnaught R9 will never defeat Malak R9. But a squad of Phoenixes can't take out a squad of Inquisitors with Inquisitor Barris right now. Even though the Phoenixes were created to destroy Inquisitors led by the 3rd Sister.

I know English isn’t your first language, so there’s a high chance there are translation issues at the heart of what you say in some of these threads. 

But saying BitDynasty’s results can’t be replicated just because your 5 attempts couldn’t replicate it is just wrong. You maybe couldn’t, but plenty of others have.

As for wanting the game to tell you the best team - how could you have any faith in what they told you if it did? The in game recommendations for modding are substandard, for instance, and there’s every chance a recommended team would be the same. What if they recommend a team but someone smart like BD uncovers a different team that do slightly better? Would you be happy with the devs or would this anger you further? I’d rather they told me nothing than something that might turn out to be wrong.

How can BitDynasty’s results be impossible to achieve if he achieved them? 

I couldn't replicate his result. My characters couldn't replicate his moves because they were dead. That's the RNG that prevents BitDinasty's results from being replicated.

So when a new character is available in Coliseum you think the game should automatically show you the best squad?

Yes

So when a new character is available in Coliseum you think the game should automatically show you the best squad? Wow. 

How can BitDynasty’s results be impossible to achieve if he achieved them? 

And what is buggy? You constantly raise bug reports that are just your failure to understand lots and mechanics.

What’s the point in even doing battles in that case? 

To demonstrate a character's power and explain why they cost so much. Also, to show the best squad for the character, according to the developers.

You're supposed to figure it out for yourself.

However, only 5 attempts are allotted to finding the best squad. And even those are buggy, as the results shown by BitDynasty are impossible to achieve due to RNG.

Another completely pointless tag for Meathead and Crumb. 

Are you seriously expecting the game to show you the most effective squad for Coliseum whilst simultaneously removing all RNG from the battle?

What’s the point in even doing battles in that case?
