The "win a solo game" challenge makes the game less fun imo

[dragonz]

I am probably just bad but I have been playing for the past week or two with my friends and since they added these new limited challenges to win games its gotten near impossible to enjoy solos with everyone sweating. Its not even enjoyable when elimination rounds go on for 5+ minutes because you got put with crazy people. Squads and duos also sucks just as much with the team games making it down to luck if you are going to win for those challenges. idk if it is just me but I enjoy the game more for it being funny and semi relaxed with the boys. now it just feels like everyone is grinding for those wins...

this event is the point where i'll most likely abandon this game forever. this game is about collecting skins for me and i already got every costume from every event. now im sure, i cant manage to get it, especially not in 2 days. "gitgud" doesnt actually help. its just not fun anymore.

i guess maaany people will abandon this game because of this challenge. its just awful. and you need 1000 out of 1000 points. its literally harder than before and before it was annoying already.

I managed to get all 1000 after an afternoon of torture. also for the people who are saying git gud or whatever its just a childish response. if you are persistent a round will eventually be in your favor. I also agree tho, why would epic make a really difficult challenge series right when thousands of new players are joining...

I am also thankful some people here actually agree with me. I really hope fall guys doesn't keep going in the competitive direction, I feel like the crown based battle pass or whatever its called is enough. I enjoy fall guys more for the crazy eliminations and hilarious rounds with my squad. Wins add on top of the fun when you pull off a crazy clutch making the whole squad laugh, or something like that. Its very unfortunate how competitive people get in video games especially in a silly fun felt game such as fall guys. I mean literally it is like wipeout...

I totally agree, I played last night at dawn thinking that there were fewer people and it would be a little easier, none of that happened, I came back this morning and ended up frustrated, I just needed to win the solitaire and finish the event but I think I won't be able to, It will be the first fall guys event that I won't be able to finish because of the ridiculous difficulty it has, I got tired and uninstalled the game

I've just decided that I won't tryhard in this game.
I've won multiple times, in all game modes, and it's satisfying when it happens, but I'll never try to win in a certain amount of time, imo it just totally ruins the fun and makes things frustrating.
So I won't do these events when wins are required. I don't love the game enough to spend an entire afternoon trying.

The skin isn't great anyway, I would have used it 2 or 3 times and never touched it again, so I don't really care. I just got the lower part but won't use it ^^

holy god this game is miserable. Played it a bunch when it first came out, was decent just not enough maps. Was pretty fun starting again, I think I won a couple times trying to get the skins and it must be forcing me up, the solo is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ miserable. Plus it's always 40 / 60 players instead of 60 so the pacing is completely demented, doing things like pickup the stupid penguin then the stupid bounce on the trampoline through hoops multiple runs in a row (before final)

Like literally, fall once don't qualify. It's absolutely un-enjoyable. It was fun before this patch, was getting fun matches, 60/60 players so I don't know if my match making went up or something changed but this is dumpsters tier.

Plus, now I have like 78,000 Kudos and nothing good to use them on. Never thought a game would become far less enjoyable with 5x the maps it had... slightly amazed they managed to do it.

The skin is fugly, but I understand wanting the latest shiny.

SBMM was introduced to make it more fun and accessible. If you find it too sweaty you probably need to lose a bunch of matches and stop tryharding.

Solo rather is the most fun the game currently is. Unless you have friends to play with.



Kinda sick of getting shafted in squads and duos. Not even due to bad teammates but just spawning down a teammate which is essentially a death sentence no matter how good you are, unless you've got the luck of the gods.


That's to say nothing of the large team games present where it's just a flip of a coin that you get the god squad or the goofy goobers. And THAT is to say nothing where the game just likes to screw people for no reason. Every time I get fallball its 3 squads versus 4. And the 4 always wins. Or a three way team game with 7 squad split giving a massive advantage for no logical reason. Absolute aids.

It's funny that people think this was hard since all I was thinking was how much they dumbed things down and made it easier for this one. For things like the golden hotdog you used to have to win multiple times in a row, or how hard it was to get Fall-o-ween Master, or the blue eyes from that one challenge where you had to collect canisters and win hex-a-gone 3 times.

This one was so easy to get comparatively, and those other ones weren't even that hard, just tedious.

They should have made this event harder since the more people who get the costume the less cool the costume becomes because it loses exclusivity.

[Lugh]

as someone who plays team with his girlfriend this "win the solo" is ♥♥♥♥♥, yea we can do it, probably easily, but it's less fun, and fking stupid..but we can't change a thing with threads on steam.

So this was the way (thanks for suggestion). To share some science around the matchmaking -

I was in super sweat elo (so people saying 'get gud' - you probably aren't on the level - which is indicative by 8 hours player). It was horrible.

Games would only ever find 40 players which screwed up the sequencing (you'd be playing hoopsie to remove 4 players, no one dies on any of the weaker games - it was SO GRINDY).

It sucked. Like if you fell once on any races you weren't qualifying. I was still making the finals about 25-33% of the time but it was absolute suffering and pain at how good people are at the final games. I'd get dizzy from how long roll-outs would last.

I started playing this game after a 2 year break about 4 days ago......... so that doesn't seem right, I was wondering how I was so high so fast.

I decided to tank games, after about 7 I started to get matched with 60 people again and it was back to sort of a normal pace. I tanked for about 10 more and it started putting bots into the lobby. Tanked 3 more just to see and it kept the bots there with about 20%-30% of the lobby.

Conclusion: It is just as easy to drop elo as it is to raise it, crown level doesn't matter. It's based on past performance.

Suggestion: have just a "normal" mode and a "ranked" for people who take it seriously. I don't want to take it seriously, but I want that costume I love gladiator crap.

I absolutely agree, also at the time of making this discussion i was only getting 40 player games which is HORRIBLE. It would give us super easy games and draw games out way longer with weird elimination amounts per game.

This isn't a skill issue. This is just a pain in the ass. Developers don't care that most part of players are kids that normally enter a final round once a month. The development the game just gets becomes more ♥♥♥♥♥♥ with every update

I think the issue here is that it's a bad balance between win a solo, win duos, win squads (the 4th win is kinda easy). There have been challenges like this before, once I won solo on my 1st match, but I wasn't able to win the squads show. I was being extremely unlucky and we weren't to win. We had like Fall Ball finals 10 times with 1v1 teams, my team was clueless I failed the squads challenge. L8er at some point the same show was brought back again and I completed it. This time I won the duos fairy easily but I can't win solo (I'm just doing the solo queue), on average I win more than this. Actually it's a bad map balance. For some reason these 2 days I get the worse maps possible, also the slowest ones which waste my time. For example there was the snowy survival map, and instead of 2 snowballs only 1 rolled the map. Wasting like 2 min for that. Also another one, there was 1 Rhyno instead of 3. Today so far it has been like Seasaw 1st map, which requires 0 skill and wastes my time. all 3 in 1 show is just too annoying I'd say. Solo on it's own isn't a problem. Also the show kinda lasts 4 days, I can't bother playing 5 hours a day to complete it. It should be like a week. Thumbs down on this one.
