    Where did you get the "The 15 minutes timer will be extended after the intro period" info from?

    You really think that tickets come that easy? This is Rovio we’re talking about. With the prizes given, it’s not worth buying tickets if you can get one every 15 minutes.

    You stated it like a fact while you are actually only speculating. Please don't spread false info.

    Team Deathmatch is a good addition to the game and I really like it alot. But it just doesn't seem fair to the fixers. Just like the original matchmaking it is all based on how much damage you do. They don't even take into consideration how much healing a fixer does. Usually in normal matchmaking, I get 2 stars for healing and doing around 2k damage. But in team deathmatch, I only get one start for doing the same thing and sometimes better than normal matchmaking. I'm not trying to sound whining or anything, but if there is future events like these can the developers take into consideration that healing should also count for stars.

    I always thought healing was taken into account? Isn't the review at the end of the match ordered by most damage? I've definitely seen where I've healed 3k and done 2k dmg and been above someone who did 4.5k dmg

    I wish it was taken into account. For example, I played a team deathmatch game. I did 35k healing but little to no damage. I got 1 star. Fair and Balanced. ;););)

    I agree, first there is no healing legendary perks and now there is a unfair advantage playing fixer in this gamemode. Do you developers have a bias on fixers or something? ;):p:eek:

    I am hoping the next event has different perks. I play a fixer and don’t use cannons, mortars, torps or fire. So I also feel your pain.

    The gold was always rewarded but it just didn't show up in the screen before. Seems like the Devs have fixed it.

    Lol, I love fighting against a team of shooters and fixers(no yellow boats). Recently, the enemy fixer was carrying only a fire bomb, so just frost torp-ed him at least 6 times(and killed twice) throughout the whole game. The fixer is always vulnerable, because when someone dies, they separate from the team, and the fixer always has to be fixing because there is always damage being dealt by 5 unfriends.
    I actually did not expect this new game mode to be so fun. The perks should probably also sell for more, compared to the average normal perk of the same rarity.

    BUFF THE FIXERS!!!! THIS IS INJUSTICE!!!! (Btw us fixers just get bullied in team deathmatch unless we get a decent team that actually protects the fixer. :p:p:p

    Its been interesting to see just how stupid most players are. Ill be nice and offer the easy way to win;
    - Stay together.
    - Stay near your own respawn zone.

    Thats it. But my god people have issues.

    One problem, what if your team goes off in 4 different directions even though you spam together. :p:confused::p

    That's rough on your team. You should contribute more!

    Just kidding man, that sucks, hopefully fixers get rewards fixed.

    You are correct, strategy is different in the death match, and everyone will adapt. So far I've played 3-4 deathmatches and have won them all, each with *no* Fixer on my side, but every time with a Fixer on the opponent's side.

    25 matchs and still didn't get the new map:(:mad:
    @Miika can you adjust the algorithm and make the new map apear more frequently than the other maps. Like what happened with Wayward Pains when it first came out.

    I tried playing like that, and this is what it got me...

    1 measly star, despite taking down 5 of the kills.

    Even worse:
    3CD16629-3A71-4035-9788-14C7F94F267A.png
    5 kills and zero stars! That’s just a waste of time and tickets.

    That’s when I realised that you’re not really playing against the unfriends, you’re playing against your teammates. And the way to beat them is to be as wreckless and aggressive as possible, so that win/lose you don’t get stiffed on rewards at the end.

    You win the game by scoring kills quickly. I’m great at doing exactly that, and should be rewarded for it. Yet the contribution system doesn’t even take that into account, and instead, awards all the stars to DPS pumping shooters, who just spam torps and mortars, barely even aiming.

    That sucks. If they made contributions fair, it would be a good game, worth playing strategically to win. But with the way things are, it’s just a mindless damage fest to grind stars and guild quests. Being a “team player” is a mug’s game.
