How on earth is removing a decent source of crystals a huge leap in quality of life for players? That makes no sense at all. Also if you win all fights with ships then you should be hitting No1 spot in fleet so you are reducing your own crystal income too.
What an utterly absurd idea.
Some people have job, family, etc.
Some arenas are very competitive, maybe you need 5 or 6 battles to get 1st.
Play a mobile game 3 or 4 hours each day (arena, conquest, TB/TW, raid etc) i don't know if is very confortable lol.
Still a huge NO.
Juggling work and family time is a YOU problem and not a WE problem. Don't take my crystals away because your time management skills suck.
Don't worry about me lol, i take 1st all days and my time management is perfect.
I try to care about the people that have a life, something that is difficult for other people to understand. Not all the people can have SWGOH as their job 😉
Grand arena is even more competitive than fleet. 5 fleet arena battles take 50 minutes, but In kyber it can take well over 2 hours to clear your opponent's side when you look up optimal counters on .gg and watch a YT video on a fleet counter you rarely use. Optimizing your defense between rounds takes time too, as does farming and re-rolling datacrons for GAC.
So you think you’re the only person to have these responsibilities?
I do too and the game doesn’t take that chunk of time out of my life, if it did then as an adult I would put the game to one side and focus on what counts rather than whine about it.
And to boot it turns out that you complain despite getting top rewards each day- where is the sense in that?
Your entitled attitude flies in the face of one of the best things about this game in that players and the community work together to get the best for everyone. Be it fleet shards organising making climbs easier and not clashing with others to content creators and people on here making seemingly impossible feats from events to red boxing conquest via cheesing- the beauty is none of want to take rewards or achievements away from each other.Well except you because apparently you’re the only swgoh player who has to balance the game with life.
Squad arena crystals were moved to GAC. Fleet arena crystals could also be moved somewhere else.
The design of squad/fleet arenas is needlessly antagonistic and fosters the emergence of toxic cliques that cooperate to occupy the top spots of a shard because only the top spots award anything of worth while every arena shard has thousands of players.
Fleet arena award the prize based on the player's ranking in the exact second the timer runs out. The problems with fleet shard mafias et al could be easily fixed with a simple change: award prizes based on player's highest achieved rank within a 24 hour period instead of rank achieved during the only second our of 24 hours that actually matters. The nature of SWGOH heavily leans towards the model of popping in and out of the game and making incremental progress here and there. For some players, this is once a day. For others, it's multiple times a day. You're allowed to spread your GAC attacks over 24 hours. We have 24-36 hour TB phases. Conquest is a 2-week long event. You can achieve red box even if you miss a bunch of days.
And then there's fleet arena, where SWGOH turns into a racing game instead.
Making that one change would be a huge improvement for everyone who actually plays fleet arena and I will even bet it might tempt some players to return to the game if they could actually gain some crystals from fleet without being confined to a particular time of day. Hell, even add some info to the rank screen when looking at other players, some visual element that tells us the player's highest achieved rank during the current payout period.
"Oh, this guy already hit 1st during the current day, but this guy only hit top 10, I can climb by switching places with the first guy, without knocking down the second guy."
It would result in more crystals for more players.
Alternatively, move crystals out of fleet arena to another game mode so I can stop caring about it just like I don't care about squad arena anymore either.
