Battle Royale Rewards in Update 7
-
Another change to DD that is “anti-player”
What happened to SDS…
-
@doobiebross66-72 my group of friends that play think this is coming down from Sony because they lost revenue going to Xbox, they still receive revenue from Microsoft for the game being on gamepass but not near as much for when it was PlayStation exclusive and everyone was paying full price. So they’re trying to hit the bottom line heavy this year.
-
@TheCanuckler309 makes sense. Unfortunate, but makes sense. Still sucks to see them take this route that will inevitably tarnish SDSs reputation over the long run
-
Where is Tylerlikeduh to say this a massive W by SDS lol

I love that before my 10 win game my reward was acuna, love that after winning the 10th game it changed to Altuve, that’s really wonderful
If you were already in a run; the new format shouldn't have been active until you redrafted.
I'd be miffed about that. But I understand them 'patching' it. I don't understand them thinking it wasn't an issue before this year.

Also annoys me that they quickly address and “fix” something like this.
Yet it’s crickets for actual issues like Paul Skenes’ outlier literally not working? The absolute miserable gameplay experience that foul offs create? The PCI shrinkage on sliders away? The created stadium that literally makes the game unplayable? I could go on…
But nope, let’s not fix actual issues with the game…let’s focus on BR and say that the player base isn’t playing it “as we intend” when the BR spreadsheets have been a thing for YEARS.
Just a joke honestly when you think about this
@Victor_SDS_PSN can you at least respond and acknowledge if the team is at least aware of the issues I’ve posted (as well as others on this forum)?
Altering BR in this manner and ignoring the actual issues with this game screams greed and quite frankly, is a middle finger to your player base

@doobiebross66-72 Literal years lol I've been using BR spreadsheets and even event spreadsheets, since 18

It’s pathetic…it’s like they assume we can’t read between the lines and tell that adjusting BR like this is an attempt to decrease earning stubs in a more efficient fashion hoping that it increases their in-game transactions
Yet they haven’t adjusted gameplay at all and haven’t addressed the literal bugs and issues that have been posted numerous times on this forum and social media
Definition of tone-deaf and frustrating to say the least.

Not defending them; but it's probably easier to code some type of random algorithm for the BR fix than it is for the other issues you mentioned.

And you can't really blame SDS for adjusting this, so to speak, when it's the player base that figured out and reposted which cards, in which spot, produced the more expensive cards.
You, and others mentioned, that you would redraft if a more expensive card wasn't the 10/12 win reward. So there in fact was an exploit that people were abusing in order to 'steal' stubs.
I'm surprised it took this long for them to patch it.

@x814xmafia steal stubs? Brother if you think going flawless in BR is stealing stubs.. when not only do you have to be good but also need luck on your side, I don’t really know what to tell you

While true, they could at least acknowledge that they’re aware of the actual issues with this game…that’s easier than an algorithm but that’s yet to happen
There’s no way to spin this in favor of SDS and I know that’s not what you’re doing, just pointing it out

And as Canuckler pointed out, in no way can you consider redrafting “stealing” stubs lmao

The resentment on Twitter (I refuse to call it X lol) is insane and at an all time high since the account resetting issue
It’s despicable that they come out and adjust BR but ignore what’s actually wrong with this game
Now, if you manage to win 10 games in BR, the card you get ranges from 5k - 145k….how is that okay?
NCAA football is right around the corner boys

So you're saying that redrafting, even though it cost 1500 stubs to do so, because you would rather get the route to a card that sells for 100K, compared to 5K, isn't stealing? That'sije saying all the resellers who would go into WM and search packs by feeling for the thicker ones, or weighing them, so they could buy the one thst has the chase card in it wasn't also stealing.
It was an exploit, that someone found out, and relayed it to others; so they could find the one pack, out of a box that has 30 packs, that had the best pack in it.
The card companies started adding spacers, to the reg packs, so all the packs felt/weighed the same.
SDS did the same thing, when changing the algorithm to be random, to give a level playing field.

I'll never play BR with them charging any stubs.
Then get out of this thread.

I don’t agree with the analogy.
And how is it level the playing field? Have you even ever gone flawless or 10-1? If you haven’t, you honestly really don’t have a say in this awful adjustment
You’re on an island trying to defend this move by SDS
-
Redrafting isn't an issue for 99% of players that play BR. Redrafting IS an issue for the goons that know they can forfeit out of an entry if they know a terrible 10 win reward was incoming.
Just like them changing the XP for the 1-3% of people that used exploits and supremely boring ways to obtain copious amounts of XP.
So, SDS bites off the nose of the 97% to spite the 3%. Awesome job.

Crazy how this can be “fixed” but every game is a random roll of dice to whether I’m going to be playing in a stadium with 12 brick walls between the pitchers mound and home plate…

About as bad of a look as it gets for SDS still not addressing that unplayable created stadium but comes out with this BR adjustment
Pretty unacceptable
Shows you what they’re prioritizing this year; micro-transactions over a quality game
