Grand arena is excellent and this is a good change.

I like many get 500 crystals per day from squad arena but its very tedious to have to be on at a specific time each day or you miss out.

This is just better.

Squad arena is infinitely more casual than gac, and you can change what time of day your payout is, so your complaints are all stupid. There is no way to make a competitive mode now with skill based matchmaking casual, and now if you actually want crystals you have to really spend your time there.

I for one am 100% on board with all of this. End of shard chat mafias, end of having to climb at a certain time every single day and having to worry about hitting people in your shard. Hopefully arena becomes more of a sandbox now.

I do see how this could negatively impact people with those lean cookie cutter rosters BUT CG has made it pretty clear in the past they want to get away from that anyways so really shouldnt be a surprise to anyone.

Lets stop complaining about a game at the end of the day and see how these changes effect you once they are live before you make a decision to quit or not.

Personally, I'm apprehensive. Not 1 mention of how cheating is being addressed throughout that SotG post. Given that crystal income will now be almost entirely dependent on GAC performance, there is now a MASSIVE incentive to cheat and it wouldn't surprise me if cheating becomes rife.

Perfect example for how CG team kills their own game.

They have no idea how unpopular GAC is.

Yeah, because squad arena is sooo much fun

Its quick and easy, unlike gac

Literally no one asked for this. All we wanted you to do was fix CONquest, and you couldn't even do that. I'm so tired of this damn game.

Overall I think I like it. Just a couple suggestions--
1) Keep crystals in Squad Arena for at least the first two GACs. Yes, this will result in more people getting more crystals temporarily, but because it'll take a few GACs for our skill ratings to sort themselves out this'll make the changeover a lot smoother.

2) Maybe add a small box or something to Squad Arena. Because right now I barely participate and I'm getting crystals for it. Once crystals move all the way to GAC, I'll have no incentive to do more than jump in two battles, quit out both, and collect my daily task rewards.

3) Maybe shake up Squad Arena once crystals are removed. Make it fun again and reward roster diversity by doing themed months. Just a thought.

Oh and yes, for the record, I've been calling folks marks for listening to rumors, but the rumors turned out to have been broadly right. So I'm the mark after all. I'm not too proud to admit when I was wrong.

So now we need to spen a lot more time and get less rewards. Just like last conquest, a month of 3v3 that’s never was fun now becoming your main source of income.

They could have just made changes to GAC but their goal is to lower our income at the same time as they make more characters crystal exclusive. Everything is about promoting whales the rest of us should stop playing
If We chooses to play our sole purpose is to act as cannon fodder for the only ones CG cares about the whales.

Gac sucks

I haven’t touched GAC since late 2019….. This game is cancer and it needs to die.

Lol. Wow. What are the devs doing??? Are they trying to completely shut the game down for good?

Maybe it's because I'm super busy in real life now, but I don't have time to read all these spreadsheets for a mobile game on that long post.

Long story short....I HATE GAC. And now for me to get crystals I HAVE to complete in it??

It just amazes me at how inept CG is.
