New event idea: "Free for All"

Hmm,yeah. Everyone will start the battle with a fixer along with:

1)Flare+Explosive Cannon(or any weapon combo)

(And)

2)Repair Bolt,Repair Pulse,Duct Tape

(Or)

Repair Bolt,Repair Pulse,Repair Box Launcher

(Or)

Dual Repair Pulse and Duct Tape

(Or)

Dual Repair Pulse and Repair Box Launcher


Along with Overboost,not nitro

 

Lol, would double Repair Bolt and Repair pulse be to OP?

 

I think this event would be a wonderful idea. Being a strict speeder main and wanting to break out by collecting epic items, I would be pleased to play this mode. But there is one problem I could see. Having the players have the same loadout could be a problem since both loadouts cancel each other out perfectly being equal levels. Maybe set a standard on ship level and item level and go from there? My argument about the loadouts being the same could be partially false since it would promote more skill because the best captain would win.

 

Thanks for your reply. So,are u saying that same loadout for all ships will be boring,isn't it? If so,what could be the alternative solution? I would be pleased to hear

 

Added "GUARDIAN- Free for All"

 

Duct tape

 

Me tooo,
U got my like.

 

While it may sound like a fair and beautiful idea (which it really is) that everyone has the same ship and the same gear, that's against the nature of Battle Bay and I doubt that could ever happen. People pay big money to get bigger weapons so they definitely don't want to be forced to use lower level stuff. And also I don't think Rovio wants people to enjoy fully upgraded weapons when they don't really have them yet because that would give less reason to upgrade your own gear.

I understand that equal gear and chances for all players is popular in modern day mobile gaming (and that's a very good thing, I like PUBG too) but Battle Bay decided to take the different way so long time ago it'd be very hard to turn back now.

 

Yeah,I agree with you too. But I thought that this event would be a welcoming one to our Bay. Will u play this event if this is implemented?

 

This would be cool if they can make it happened .

 

It's a good idea, but the battles might get monotonous with everyone having the same boat. Instead, they could do teams with the same boats. (Ex. Each team gets a Shooter, a Defender, an Enforcer, a Fixer, and an Interceptor, each with predetermined items.)
That way, each team would be balanced but battles would be more interesting.

This would also speed up matchmaking a bit — as soon as two people with the same boat entered the matchmaking pool, they could be matched into a battle, versus the pool needing ten players of roughly equal level with the same boat selected.

 

Love your concept.

Thanks

 

Personally I would love free for all event but I would let people freely pick their own ship and own gear. It's up to them to find what's the effective strategy.

Depending on the event win mechanism (for example "last man standing"), we might need some way to prevent yellow ships from hiding until the end and just doing the last kill.
