Re: Rivals Clash discussion

60+ hours at my job would've netted me a hefty paycheck. I think I put in 30+ hours with minor HSing this RC and got Rodman/Pippen.

Grinding in top 35 is like a full time job except for you actually putting money in instead of getting paid

Re: Rivals Clash discussion

Would anyone really object if they cut RCs off on Saturday night instead of Sunday? I doubt they would ($$$), but I think it would make them significantly more fun. Hell, the Christmas RC was my favorite because it only went til Friday. I actually was able to land the top prize and still have a weekend to enjoy.

I really wish they would do this. It would lead to a much better weekend overall. And my girlfriend would be much happier. You could always post this in the suggestion thread.

I doubt they would even consider it without an overwhelming support of the community. That is essentially an entire day or two of hot streaks that they would be losing. Unless they had a way to make that up, I don't see them going for it. I'll suggest it anyway.

We've been suggesting this since the first RC in 2k14 lol, they never even considered shortening it... Weekends are when people start HSing, they get a lot of money on weekends

Yeah, I doubt they do it, but you never know. Maybe the Christmas RC was their way of testing it out. I suggested it on the suggestions thread anyway. Maybe a second RC on the weekend is the way to go (with non-RC cards). This way, they get people HSing on both Friday and Sunday. If there's a way for them to do it AND make money, they'll do it. Splitting it up may actually be more lucrative for them and a better experience for us. I'm sure there are people who are unavailable during the week and would love to just grind away on the weekend and end up with a Star. There would also be a lot of people that do both.

how about doing a 3+ days RC also ending on a Sunday every week?

Re: Rivals Clash discussion

We might have the same idea. I guess I wasn't entirely clear with what I was suggesting, so I'll clarify and see if we're thinking the same thing. I'd like to see an RC that starts on Tuesday (as it currently does) and run until Friday night (prizes as they currently are). Then, I'd like to see another shorter RC that starts either Friday night or Saturday morning and runs until Sunday night (prizes begin with a Star). 2 RCs during a one week span.

Re: Rivals Clash discussion

It would also be cool if they put in a new type of game. I'm a little bored with the same old Season, QG, and RC types. I hear they added a new type to the wrestling card game. Hopefully it makes it's way here quickly.

Re: Rivals Clash discussion

No RCs on Sunday will probably never happen as that's when the majority of people have time to play. Sundays don't matter to the jobless and people who work irregular hours, but the weekends are downtime for the overwhelming majority of people. You'd have better luck trying to get them to start later in the week. Making a lesser % of the RC time happen during working hours could induce more frenzied play. This would give a chance for the people who can't play during working hours to be more competitive.

Another option is to limit total playing time. Instead of unlimited time within a certain time period if people were restricted to x amount of hours of play this could give more people a chance to be competitive. Instead of success basically being a function of how long a person plays they'd have to maximize their time and wins. Even if the # were something large like 30-40 hours a week this could increase revenue because as it is only about 20-30 people who play this game even THINK they can get a top spot. Limiting the total amount of time makes top prizes more attainable.

Well they have to change something. I don't see the currently format working for another 6+ months. People are going to stop dropping off and it's only going to be a select few who HS for a ton of points.

Enjoyed it as well. Only got a 1 slot Rodman but got a 1 slot Pippen as well. Already bosted me up to Leg from Epic and got a nice Penny Hardaway freebie. Still haven't maxed out Rodman. At level 24 of 40 he is already like 1400 pts. Crazy. Going to have to grind till I get a couple Leg dupes before I can even think about maxxing him out.

Nice problem to have.
