New conquest event feedback

I'll preface this with my feelings heading into it: I was SUPER excited about this game mode. I thought it was going to be fun, engaging, and interesting.

My feedback from the first few days:

1) Content is needlessly repetitive and tedious. Sector 1 had 'like' 7 Imp trooper teams from all available battles. Sector 2 had like 9 GR "reflect" teams. Modifiers stay the same on all these teams, and its like a stupid marathon version of Galactic Challenge. I don't want the same crap over and over and over and over again.

2) Energy regenerates far too slow. I should be bursting with energy trying to get me to engage in this game mode more often. CG has this completely wrong. I should be incentivized to chase the feats and such and not going, "Ughh... Im not wasting 15 energy trying for that crap". Im not wasting crystals on something that isn't fun like feat chasing.

3) There is too much going on with the feats. We've got Sector feats, Event feats, Boss battle feats. I hate going and checking all the different feats and trying to consider them. Especially when Im forced to have all of the same teams as opponents. Chasing feats, also, isn't fun at all. Its subjective, sure, maybe some people like it, but especially with the slow energy regeneration... it's tedious.

Current feelings: Like a more tedious version of Galactic War married with Galactic Challenges. 3/10

I like the game mode overall, but the feats need some work. Feats like score 50 crits in this boss battle or remove 500% TM are really annoying. So I need to figure out which of my toons can reliably crit, but aren't so overgeared the fight ends before I can get enough crits, but aren't so undergeared that I can't win the battle. eg, I'm being punished for gearing up my zombie roster to be stronger. Gearing up my toons should never make it harder to complete game content/earn rewards.

@Fanatic I'm running into the same issue. Cannot for the life of me get 30 Crits against DR on Sector 3. I've tried at least 10-15 times.

Same. Need that counter badly so i can tell if im close

Id also say the crate is too hard to get.

I know you dont need all the feats... but i still feel like im down to the few i vant do and the few that are largely annoying to do without said needed counter.

Think lower the amount of feats needed to get to red crate or up the number of tokens a feat grants.

Sucks to have 3 starred it all and yet not be there

I have been playing for well over a year and every time new things get added into the game I feel like I'm left out.
This new conquest event is the most pathetic excuse to tell 90% of the player base that they're not worth the time or effort.
Thanks alot EA for another useless event that I will not be allowed to participate in for prizes.

i get your unhappy, but they have said they are planning for an 'easy mode', for lower level players. So maybe take a chill pill and wait till they make the final decision before you kick over another flower pot

you have to work for the crate, its not a freebie

You dont say. Though im not sure where i indicated i wanted a freebie

Need is a strong word.

From your other post, knowing you are close doesnt help you get it. You still need a proper plan and proper execution, which can be done without a counter.

It would be a great thing and much appreciated, but much like the argument for hiding scores on GAC, if you just plan to do everything in your power to do it, knowing (or not) changes nothing.

Difference is without the counter i dont know if i need to rethink, remod or just tweak a move or two.

So yes need is the correct term.

Just like scoring in GAC, you can do all of that before hand in your plan, and go in expecting that you need to 100%maximize your effort.

Players are doing it without a counter, so no need is not the correct term.

I am not arguing not to get it.

Someone: I need food, I haven't eaten in three days

Kyno, probably: People have survived more than three days without food, so no need is not the correct term

This is such a ludicrous semantical argument. Can you really not see a situation where we need the counter so we know whether or not our strategy is working? Maybe I removed 699% turn meter in the battle, just falling short, and getting a bit better rng would have gotten me the feat, so my strategy is sound. Or maybe I only removed 300%, so I need to use a different team comp. So yes I do need a counter, and it doesn't matter whether or not other players have been doing it without one.

Anyone know what the targetable crate in the boss levels is all about? Doesn't seem like you can damage or destroy it.

It gets rid of the dots that are applied from the enemy team modifier.

While i get you arent saying we shouldnt want it.... i disagree with you completely.

I am not going to do maximum effort and move all kinds of mods to stab in the dark at something. Im either there or im not.

I then evaluate where i am based on how close to the goal i am. The fact that it doesnt give me a count or progress bar at all means i am unable to evaluate.

If im 1 or 2 away, i tweak my play. But i need to consider what i could be doing wrong.

If im way off i need to evaluate mods or gear or zeta or the team in general.

I cant tell any of that without the desired count/bar.

So yes need is correct in my case.

The continued use of feats i cant tell if im close to getting or way off is annoying and un fun. It makes me not want to do them


Example: Currently im 37/50 thermals and i dont have good mods or gear on any of my characters that dish out thermals. I will power through because i have that counter. If i didnt know... i wouldnt be trying that feat.
