Constructive Criticism for the game (Personal things I think should be improved on)

[Xyphien]

Too much eye candy/ eye spam

The game seems very fun, however one of the largest hurdles I am having as an avid MOBA fan myself is all of the eye candy in the game. There's nothing differentiating from what's needed and what's just in the way. Trying to find revive points as a newer player is nearly impossible to figure out what you need and what you do not. My buddy said it took him about 4 hours in order to even have a remote idea of what's going on.

Arena Time is crazy short

I understand the point in arena is suppose to be a quick game, however it shouldn't be just 1.5 minutes. That's just crazy short, the games are done in a blink of an eye and before you know what's going on the game is over.

Battlerite style Arena Gamemode

Having a 2v2 & a 3v3 game mode where it's just a small arena where the goal is simply to kill the other team.

More visuals for abilities

In league of legends you're able to see every ability that's about to happen and can plan accordingly. This game is so

Post game statistics shouldn't be time based

What is with the devs and making everything insanely time based? End game stats should be left to be able to report people, compare what damage you did and didn't do, etc. We had a guy moaning "Yaasss daddyyyyy ohhhhh uhhhh yeaaahhhhh" the entire game whilst having 6k damage and flaming the team in text chat, by the time I finally got my barings on the post game stats it booted me back into the normal lobby. Post game statistics/reporting/etc. should be until I the player choose to exit out of it, not when the devs deem it's ready. Not everyone reads and can comprehend at the same speed as everyone else and some people wish to improve on their gameplay and looking at how well/poor they did post game is insanely valuable as well.

Ability to report Enemy Team

Our last game the enemy team had an AFK. You should be able to report AFK individuals even if they're not on your team. AFK ruins the game for literally everyone, and as such you should be able to report them.

Void is absolutely busted

Void's ult into Q combo is a 1 shot combo, his teleport is guaranteed to stop any attempt at a overtime, his q gets large enough no one can even step on a point in arena. One of these would be fine, but all on one single character is kind of insane and he stomps once you get higher level/mmr.


I also found a random little bug (Not a big deal but a bug nonetheless)

I will be updating this as I continue to play the game, as a novice, as well as when I start getting better at the game. I'm around an hour in and already starting to get top everything as Oath :)

Keep in mind, this is NOT bashing the game at all. I'm really loving it thus far, the gameplay seems like it'll be the game I've been looking for to hold me off after Battlerite took the L and stopped being developed. This is constructive criticism on things I think will improve the game for the better.

For me the most, VERY, INCREDIBLY frustrating thing is in ARENA.. I hate the hard 1:30 time limit. It doesnt give enough time for outplay or a comeback. Whoever gets to the point first wins. There is no opportunity for a 1v4 outplay. No time to get a revive in and a comeback. It makes arena (which would be my favorite gamemode) something that I want to avoid. My suggestion would be a 3 minute timer. With a strong storm closing in around the point. It would force the players together so you wouldnt lose the fast paced gameplay but it would allow enough time for outplay. PLEASE MAKE THIS CHANGE.

I also agree with have a duos just elimination lobby would be cool. not a big issue but could be a good addition.

EYE CANDY. Why is everything NEON. just have some normal colors. I get the need for drawing in the eye for new players to be interested but it sure does make the game hard to read.

I also agree with the postgame just staying there until i choose to exit.

What does everyone else think?

[Phatrooster13]

I have played another 5 hours or so more from when i made my first post. I have learned to play around the 1:30 arena times. and I do not hate it as much. I still think more time would be better but i wont give up arena if they dont adjust it.

To summarize, this is one of those games where no new player will enjoy playing unless they invested time in it...like, no working adult with social life would. If you're paid to play, like a streamer or youtuber, probably they can pick it up with time.

Devs need to start implementing tutorial modes and bot only game modes. These would resolve some of your issues.

They should drop the arena mode and replace it with a map that has lanes with towers and some sort of shrine to protect, between that and the battle royale mode this game will be super fun.

So you just want another garbage MOBA?

Arenas always die off quickly, every time people say we love it and will support it! but people do not follow though on that, they should support the battle royale as a primary mode then add a traditional moba map later once arena gets abandoned by the player base besides since this game has vertical stuff it means you could make a pretty interesting traditional moba map. a jungle that goes over the lanes and has paths down for example.

One of my all time favorite games in this entire genre was Battlerite. If they kept up with it, they hit a lot of really good traction and just got bored and moved on to a battle royale that ended up killing hype for both games and they ditched them to work on V-Rising. Nonetheless, I played that religiously for a few years actually (Until the fact that it wasn't ever going to get worked on killed the entire playerbase)

IMO Arena is the ONLY thing fun with this game. I do not like BRs and I know a ton of people that don't. Having the arena is actually quite enjoyable. After playing it a ton I either found that I love the short timer on it, or I'm stockholm into loving it lol either way I really enjoy it.

This is not my personal opinion on arena modes, every game that has had arenas eventually had to drop them player interest dies too quickly, league itself tried multiple times to make arena modes a permanent thing but consistently found people grew bored of arenas after a few weeks to a month at best, Battlerite devs probably didn't just go wow our arena is super fun lets randomly abandon it and quickly rebalance the entire game around a battle royale style instead it was likely that the player base was rapidly vanishing because arenas just do not retain players in the same way battle royales or mobas do and yes their royale failed because their entire game was hard core balanced around arena it takes at least a year to return away from that which is basically a guaranteed death sentence scenario.
