Bring back normal breach | Forums

[Gaser.]

Wasn't trying to sound menacing, just pointing something out. And of course I care to explain.
Devs seem to balance the game without playing it through, Raider has been OP for quite some time now, HA is being abused for the new released characters and some of the reworked ones, like Shugoki and Raider, they seem to have interest in tournament competitive players, but keep dumbing down the mechanics with their new characters, making them spammers and safe to play with an almost inexistent learning curve.
Ubisoft keeps using a FTP game strategy to make sales of their season passes, releasing characters that have more and more broken features everytime (and I mean broken regarding the game and the original cast, not necessarily OP, like the Shaolin's teleport) and Jorm's has been the worst so far, making him OP when he can use his features.
And none of those points are being attended, thus the statement in my original response.

Raider isn’t really op, he just has over tuned dmg.

The only real problematic hyper armour hero is Hito and that is fixed with delaying the first heavys hyper armor a bit.

Oh boy the Ubi brings out broken heroes to boost sales argument. Comedy Gold.

Calling Shaolins Teleport Op is just a joke itself.

Jormungandrs feat are problematic I give you that but the character itself is awful and mostly unsafe.

Oh yea Gaser Jormungandr is OP on console...

Can’t imagine that even trough I haven’t faced him there, I got enough experience on console that I can saftly say he is also awful there.

Fear not. Normal Breach will return to the game soon!

I appreciate the Ragnarok feedback.

It should have never left in the first place.

I actually like the Ragnarok event but taking away the option to play regular breach was confusing since you have 2 menu options [Events & Breach] which lead to the same game mode. Makes no sense. Holding back my frustration & will refrain from unloading with venom lol. Theres just no logic in making it like this.... sigh....

It was probably done that way to not split up the playerbase, match making is already rough as it is. And most of the times I look at the activity for breach it's low.

I don't think that "not splitting the playerbase" is a good enough reason. I'm all for experimenting with new game modes but it should be up to the users what they want to play. The devs should not take away a tried and tested game mode without consulting the player base first. "Normal" Breach is very well supported in my experience (playing on PC in the EU it generally has Medium to High activity).

I also think that "it's just for 2 weeks, be patient" is not an acceptable argument. 2 weeks is actually quite a long time! I really don't like Breach: Ragnarok (plus it frequently crashes when I do play it) so why can't I just play "normal" Breach if I want to?

Care to explain? XD

Because for me this sounded more silly then menacing.

I'm not surprised there...

Excuse me?

Another Lonerwuld Gas?

Not sure don’t want to make assumptions.

I just don't get why some people even think about defending that we are not able to play normal breach anymore for the rest of this event. They took 3 maps completely out of the game for that time, and most important, my friends and me want to play breach, not super hammer unbalanced crashing event Ragnarok mode.

It's funny, but not for more than 2 rounds (for us!). We miss breach, and since this is the first time, that an event is blocking a whole game mode, I think its "ok" to "complain" because that never ever happened before. Event is event and the rest of the modes were untouched in every single event until this one. My uneducated guess is that it's because of a technical issue and they just don't want to tell the public that they are not able to run event breach and normal breach at the same time.

Event breach is just too much about one single thing to accomplish in order to win that game. As soon as the players know a little bit how to play and get the hammer, then the game most of the time is already done. Attackers got too much disadvantages in this mode, and at least once a day it justcrashes for everybody in phase 2. Yesterday we even had a case of "ram doesn't want to move anymore" and it just stood in the first gate after breaking through.

I think we have enough reasons to have kind of the right to ask Ubi to give us the normal breach back. And before someone tells me again "that I should stop whining and it's only 1 1/2 weeks": I don't want to spend my holidays not playing my favorite gamemode with my friends. That's how I feel and noone can tell me how to feel about something, that's obviously not ok.

Can we get an update if "soon" means after the event or do you plan to bring it back earlier?

So long,
Hammelsneid
