    Hey guys,

     

    i also find myself struggelign as Pure nature vs pure Fire once Fire goes T2.

    Zappys suggested to build " SoM" . But i couldnt find such card on my own. What does he refer to?

     


    Thanks and best regards

     

    Lichterloh

    Shrine of Memories, but the info is outdated as SoM has 3 Orbs these days (used to be T2)

    @Majora suggested that we play tome! For those who don't know, tome play is where you draw a number of boosters, and you are just allowed to use those cards. We drew two pools of 8 boosters each and determined randomly who will use what pool. Hopefully that will spice up the gameplay a bit. Down below, you will find our pools.

    What a lovely idea!

    I have another suggestion. Look up World of Tanks. In their youtube channel alot of the mechanics of the game are well presented and explained. Maybe you could do something similar. It would be helpful for new players to have an official video guide, which is short, summarised and easy to digest. 

    That sounds indeed cool! As the team has an video editor since a short time your wish may come true one day.

    Until then? Community has created a ton of informational streams, videos and stuff. If you are looking for a certain topic where you would like to have more information about, just let us know, perhaps we can give you a few links

    for some reason if you filter on Blue only ... it also shows bandit cards even if you filter to not show those? 
    also the filter for 2 colors does not work, i can filter on stonekin and it will show mono green and mono blue as well 

    P.S. not sure if this is where im suppose to report that but this is where it took me after pushing the report button

    And worse, it is not updated and does not contain all cards 🙂

    Check smj.cards or the wiki for a full card overview

    but late game pure fire is complete trash, is the worst pure color, loosing to even frost, all because the lack of sustainability,

    Never seen a late game scenario where fire is not anywhere between viable and A-tier. Where do you struggle with pure fire after T3? Perhaps I can help

  6. Bonjour mate,

    when your game crashes it will not put a replay in the replay folder but in the "Diag" folder in documents, together with a crashlog (hopefully)

    You find you crashdata here (I guess you can relate tho it is german, if not hit me up and I try to find this screenshot in French or English)
    grafik.png.27120eb50caeabae1bbbe3b84cb458cb.png

    There you will also find there the files "crashdata.mdmp" and "_log_proxy_latest.log", those two files are what is usually needed to identify the problems.
    The "movie.pmv" you find in that folder is the replay of the latest crashed game.


    All this will not help on this issue, as I guess you played a game afterwards, but maybe the information can be helpful next time.

    Cheers

    Reeks of Elitism and Gatekeeping, sorry.
    Losing is part of the game and life. Removing an achievement just so certain players don't join your game, wtf? Let people try the gamemode, and if you fail, you can point out what went wrong. You can also instruct them beforehand.

    It's not bad to have an achievement in the game that's actually hard, you know? It's a good thing that it exists, as it creates incentive for people to try out a different mode other than rPvE9.

    My vote is to have it stay. Deal with your losses and your teammates.

    If my experience would be that people join and say "Hey I'm new to this, can you help?" I would not have opened the thread, cause I'm always willing to help with this topic if people did just do a min 'homework'.

    What we see these days are often groups that are not even willing to speak about who takes which shrines.

    And if we speak about people that are not willing to learn a halfway suiting deck or basic spawnrules in 9 - I don't want to waste my time with that.

    Sad but true, this has taken my motivation for random 10s sadly, tho it was always the most enjoying thing in BaFo to me, cause even good groups could get here into troubles sometimes.

     

  8. I have reinstalled a few weeks ago, that's why I remember:

    You have to download two files, the game files (that are packed) and the installer, that is an executable.
    Don't manually unpack the big - just run the installer.


    @Vincent_ValentineFrom what I see on the screenshot I would say you have one corrupted/failed download. I would say the installer is missing in your case

    Well I give up on the code smith, thought maybe editing the video file to only show first summon and boss kill then add the header back into the video text file might do it, but the only video editors I can see that edit PMV files are windows movie maker that hasn't existed since windows 7, maybe XP or Mac stuff. Also No coding program I have can detect what the text is encoded with, so besides the header I can't read anything in that file. And none of the 4 video editors I own can open a PMV. It is also now known as a python program tool, but idk python have none of that dev kit on my pc and pretty sure python came after BF was created?! Idk, I give up.

    Idk if the riddle was meant to be this deep but I was really hoping to submit some hacky wacky sh*t as a replay. Guess not, just submitted my bad score one instead lol. Like the general contest that covers all player types, well done!

    The .pmv files are replays, not a video format. It is basicly just the commands that happened and BaFo/SR can replay that for you.

    Yeah this Code Smith thing... 🙄

    at T2 there were only 2 squads of Minions 1 squad of fighters 1 healer and 1 spellbreaker.

    It is a quite weird composition that I can't remember either to have that seen before. Tho I've seen even easier T2 where it was the named combo but a shaman instead of a spellbreaker.

    I know that usually only 2 things should have changed here, as mentioned by Metagross, but also share the feeling that some of the usual T2 composisions have changed a bit. But can't say for sure

    Why not just put the 10s booster achievement behind the 10s time achievement...? You can only do the booster achievement when you have done BG10 under 12 minutes. 

    You can discuss details, but the general idea is not bad and would be an improvement

     This would gatekeep the vast majority out of ever trying the achievement

    That is what I personally would wish, yes. That was the topic here.

    TO was "please delete it asap and forever"

    Still have not much hope, but sharing other ideas as they come to my mind

     

  13. Random idea (as the problem occurs again because the motm is very easy)

    How would it be to hide the BG10 Achievement behind the sub10min shoe on 9s?

    That players have definitely learned the game and are ready to step up to 10s and could get encouraged via an achievement to do so.

    I think that if "any changes" occur the leaderboard will be reset, thats kinda going to far. Not sure that that was really stated, but I could be wrong.

    But if, like wanky mentioned, some integral things like the SoW changes on such a fundamental level, a reset is warranted - even if the theoretical top time just drops by a second, it has become unattainable so competing for top times stops to make sense. So I'm not surprised, as Liorans wrote, it has just been forgotten and will come Soon(TM).

    Maybe one of the Admins or High-Level Devs may confirm?

    I am just writing this as a player, not in any official way. Just saying, because of my official title, but I cannot and will not ever speak for the project.

    I can well understand the question for a reset on Slave Master, tho that was not what was brought up by the TO. But this is indeed one that should be reset!

    I am, as known, not even a little bit in the cpve-speedrun topic. But I don't see any of the changes in the current patch affecting any alltime, which is why I asked for maps that are affected (and why). Again, I want to emphasize that I'm not saying there are no other affected Alltimes, but I and the people I talk to don't see them.

    For the rpve I see no impact for several reasons, the most important being: The current times are as far from a deep grind as they could be. Both times in 4player could be easily beaten if only two things come together: easy map + some competition.
    Breeding and SOW changes certainly have a huge impact on casual play, but I can't see any impact on speedruns in rpve so far. Breeding is usually not used and from the first tests you can easily work around the SOW-changes, as a double or triple Fire Orb player is useful anyways.

    I'm not saying that the Rpve ladder should not be reset, I just don't see any reason to. I am open to any constructive discussion and would like to be convinced.

    It was stated that any changes to the game will be followed with a full leaderboard reset

    Never heard of it either @Kapo, nor would it make sense to me. Not saying it was not said, just saying I never heard of it.

    I dont mean this as personal critique, more as an exploration to whats might be up with some complaints: Could it be that for many of us, our gaming experience is centred around maps and cards we know in and out for many years, so if something new (in this case: new expert maps to conquer) comes up we are not used to get a punch in the face from an expert map any more?

    Many newbies (to the game as a whole) say things like "cant make the big Soultree wave, how is this even possible?" and we answer "LOL git gud" - and now we aren't used any more to be in the same situation, so it gets frustrating pretty quickly?

    Sure, can be the case!

    Why is this reward perceived so differently from Promo Mana Wing or Promo Worldbreaker Gun and their respective achievements?

    Because these one were a walk in a park compared to the first map that I tried. 

    And as I tried first the one with the most upvotes and it felt terrible to me, it discourages me personally a bit. Spend around 2 hours with 3 different deck types anf was not able to get T3

    Share the feeling a seasonal forge could have been more inclusive, but as you say: If it does not bother one enough (case for me) - just leave it out.

    I did not expect the CMSR to adress me as a player and was proven right. Tho have the feeling a lot players I heard from really like it.
