Coliseum and Marquee Feedback.

Since we are getting to the end of the first era with the new system. I think it's safe to say it's a complete failure. 

1. Playing Coliseum every day is not fun. Not even slightly. The fights are terrible and you have to do them daily. Aside from the initial rewards to level up, it's not rewarding unless you're gonna pump loads of money into it. A huge middle finger to any free to play players.

2. Can't even use the marquee character out of the god awful mode and the garbage replacement of GC. Just let me use and gear the characters I want. The old system was far superior.

3. A small thing maybe but I'm sick to death of being forced to look at this crappy new era characters every time I start the game and wanna see my roster. We get it! You want our money. Sod off. 

4. I know it's a common thread above but the money grabbing nature of this whole update is shocking. I currently see no benefit to the average player. All I see is a huge benefit to the whales who were already ahead. 

I know this probably won't accomplish anything. But may as well try to get rid of this part of the update.

    It is possible to get the 60s as FTP. A purchase here and there helps as well, and i mean literally 2 or so, not 10 or 20.  That said, it's hard capped at 70. You cannot pass 70 without paying. Period. At least to this point. The only place to get the mats to get past that is the era shop for cash.

    I wonder if the rewards will change with the release of Vader and Barriss?  I haven't seen any posts in discord or here about the rewards cap at tier 7 / 40%.  You're the first to bring that up, so thank you for the heads up.  

  • A daily attack takes 3 minutes. In the lost of swgoh chores, it's pretty manageable.

    This isn't true - I have reached tier 6 on all the bosses and even reached tier 7 on AT-ST and Tomb Guardians, and I haven't spent one cent on anything in Coliseum. If you're struggling to clear t5, it is likely a strategy / rng issue (since it can't be a modding issue). I have found all the tiers easier to clear with IG90 lead. Have you tried that? Also, make sure you check out the mechanics of the bosses. Lots of people are using STL's middle special against the AT-ST, which means you'll resist lots of debuffs so it will gain masses of TM and slaughter you. There's a workaorund with Chewy's second special. 

    I have actually really enjoyed Coliseum, since midway through IG90's era. What I don't like about it Coliseum that there is an absolute hard cap on how far you can take your Era units without spending, which is Level 70. When you reach t7, you get upgrade materials in the reward crates up to and including 40%, but everything after that is just Era Currency. 

    I think this should have been made clear from the start.

    This, plus now in order to advance past level 5 you have to pay them $16.99 or multiples of that.

    Never mention that as I go through the second full cycle stuck at level 55 it appears they have buffed the awful fights.

    Waste of time and the significant reduction in Episode Shipment currency means I'll no longer be paying the $20 per cycle for that. Cool cool that I now have piles of useless Era currency that will simply expire.
