" State of the Game - Road to Glory
We have received lots of feedback about Road to Glory and I wanted to talk a bit about the game event. First off, thank you for making the event a huge success. The number of players playing in the event is very high, so many of you are enjoying it. As with any new feature there are some kinks to be worked out, and we are working to resolve issues and improve the experience.
The Design
Road to Glory is an event designed to allow players to play more at their own pace (vs. PCC when you’re competing against other live players) in order to acquire cards that improve your deck. We expect that with diligent playing during the event you will be able to acquire a card that will help your deck. Generally that means being able to win the card one tier above your deck. How difficult it is to acquire that card depends largely on how good your deck is.
For example, if I am barely in Epic, I should be able to acquire the Legendary card. +3 and +5 games in Legendary will likely be too difficult to win and I may be only able to win some of my +1 games to get it. Some of my +1 games I may lose too because I am so low in Epic and opponents get harder with every point I earn. Now if I was in the top end of Epic, I should be able to win the Legendary reward more easily because I will be able to win more +3 games and possibly even +5 games. Once I get past the Legendary reward, with some luck I *might* be able to win the Survivor card, but it will be extremely challenging.
High Priority Issues
With this event we have seen a few issues that we are actively working on resolving.
1. Network Error Disconnects – This is our top priority to resolve. There are many reasons to get a Network Error. Some are related to connection strength (i.e. not something we can resolve), and others are related to server errors (definitely something we can solve). In the last few days we have been able to get some reliable repro cases which is allowing us to dig into the issue further. While we are still working through the issue, some changes have been made on the servers that might make it better, but we’re still plugging away on it.
2. Matchmaking for +1s – We have had some feedback about players seeing very high matches (e.g. SV Pro decks vs. your SR deck) when battling lower tier boss cards. You should not be getting matches like that and several changes are being made to prevent these situations in the next event. Please remember the design discussed above and matches will be extremely challenging when trying to overreach for cards beyond a player’s deck’s capability.
3. High level Matchmaking – Players with high end decks will no longer be matched with low end decks making the acquisition of those cards inappropriately easy. You will be matched to appropriate level decks at all tiers of boss cards.
If you continue see problems, I encourage you to post about it, let me know on Twitter (@NWGameDad), or send in a Feedback. We cannot always respond, but your posts do get read. We appreciate the passion around the game, and hope you continue to enjoy WWESuperCard. "
