2 days for 900 coins?

You mean $50 for a ship you can't use until you fork over many times that for leveling it up.

 

Lol. Awesome. I would love to hear from dev staff. Maybe they have a non-greedy explanation.

 

Am I alone in thinking Battle Bay is approaching jumped the shark territory, based on their recent rollouts?

 

Due to lack of Dev presence on the forums, I'm guessing they have been told not to communicate with the community. Poor boat introductions, unreasonable event goals, and no Dev communication are all bad signs.

 

The game is unfortunately devolving into a hot mess which in turn makes it harder for new player to get engaged. The number of in-game currencies and upgrade options is now too expansive AND expensive.
We have to deal with Gold, Sugar, Pearls, Stars, Battlecoins, Ship pieces, 5 different types of parts and 5 different types of power cells - it can become too overwhelming.

Some simplification is definitely, and urgently, needed to make the game more accessible for new players as well as make it easier to progress for all, for example:-

1. Remove one level of weapon and parts - honestly, do we still need Uncommons?
2. Combine the two ship-specific pieces into a generic ship piece that can be applied to either.
3. Cost of upgrading ship levels need to be seriously re-worked - the cost is too exorbitant for the small gain in HP. Or, massively increase the Gold rewards.
4. Cost & time of training also needs to be reworked - again, costing too much AND taking too long per level. While the move to individual training trees for each item is/was a good move, in hindsight, the "totality" of trying to upgrade a few items is very prohibitive. Also, as some others have mentioned, some of the benefits of the training (+5 for shield HP as example) is not commensurate with the sugar/time expense.

 

It is Ironic how every good introduced into the game results in something equally as bad.

• New Boats! - Impossible to upgrade without a mortgage payment.
• New Training Tree! - Substantially more expensive and more time consuming to upgrade.
• No more Lube/Rudder! - Replaced with added agility that no one asked for
• Scrap boat evolutions! - And replaced with 43 Additional Boat Levels, overall cost at what, 10x before?
• New Events! - Uh, well, just reworked event rewards... now impossible to get, and no value when achieved.

That sums up months worth of new content.

 

Which is a crying shame. We are all passionate about the game and the feedback given represents that passion. However, if our cries go unheard, I fear that our time with BattleBay is coming to an end.

 

adding mortar perks are unhealthy trust me fixers are even more nerfed now
Stop nerfing my kind please lol

 

They need to allow coins to rollover for next events, they can't force all players to complete the events or just forget about legendary perks. It's just unfair. I can partly understand the fact that they don't want us to accumulate tons of coins for other events (as many people including me used to do)... but that can be easily be solved by capping coins at 1k or 1.5k! On the other hand, if they are worried about us saving for the next new ship event, they can simply create a new currency for that event(s).

I mean, not-full-time-players need an oportunity as well

 

Unfortunately there is no reply from devs or Rovio members. And this is not the thing that someone doesn't like and someone like it (e.g. new agility) but this event scheme everyone just hate. EVERYONE.

 

2 days , 157 battle , ITS NOT IMPOSSIBLE !!!

 

157 Battles . That's a rough average of 5.7 coins per battle. Thats a hella grind. What perk did u get?

 

This is the reality

 

I played a LOT(have life responsibilities too) and got to 380 coins.
-So 19 piece crates
3 x 500 piece crates
16 x 65 piece crates
Total: 2540 pieces

End Result:
Took interceptor from 12 to 14
Took Reaper from 20 to 21

I read somewhere that it requires 200,000 pieces to get each ship to level 50.
So If I still need 180,000 per ship.
360,000 / 2540 per week = 142 Weeks

So at this pace I should have a level 50 Interceptor and Reaper sometime in 2021 or 2022.

 

I managed to get to 900. I didn’t care for my perk too much (2nd time getting carronade perk) there were 6perks I would’ve preferred to get.

The ship pieces were nice tho, I got a couple levels on each ship. Every bit helps.

 

We understand it’s possible. But how much did you sacrifice your two days for a mobile game?

156x4min per game 624

Approximately 10.4 hours in two days.

That isn’t healthy for any game.

That’s the whole point of this thread.

 

I’ve played this game an unhealthy amount. Almost 650 days and over 35k games played. So over 50 games a day average...

This just made me realize something tho, sure I get more gold per game now at lvl 50 than I did when I started, and my season rewards are higher, but I’ve been capped at level 50 for a long time now so the rewards haven’t been increasing. Anyone else feel like asking for more captain levels?

 

There has always been talk about higher Nightmare Leagues, T6 Items, and MK8 Boats... and I wouldn't consider the 50 boat levels the MK8 upgrade...
