Hopes/Predictions for Expansion 2?

#54

List of demands (my aren’t I special):

Make Paddo great. (That is what I always want the most)
Focus more on control decks (That is what I always want second)

OK, for real though (Make Paddo great!)…I’d like to see more deck archetypes for Vetruvian and Songhai in particular. Hoping Sajj becomes more viable. Zirix running something other than Obelysks would be sweet.

As for Songhai, maybe a bigger support for Backstab? I am trying to run a backstab deck that is not doing so hot.

As for everyone else? Some absurd legendaries like Koan of Horns.

I hope we will get more moe girls. We only have Cas to be honest, and Reva is a tsundere, so not moe at all.

What I hope: honestly, CPG, now is not a good time for new factions. Hope you guys understand that. Also, new generals would be amazing.

What I want: For people to understand that since the beginning CPG wanted to make a fast game and stop complaining that the game is too fast. I also want multi-faction cards (that are not neutral)

I don’t think there will ever be a time for a new faction. They’ll be behind 2 expansions on cards. Even if they push them out without that many cards, their existence alone will introduce two new General BBS’s and taht will affect the meta in a huge way. What Netrunner did was genius in my mind. They introduced 3 new “Generals” that have no ties to the other factions and they gave them a small batch of cards. Since then they’ve been giving them a few cards each cycle so that they don’t completely shift the meta.

All for each faction having 3 general though. Didn’t they say that this expansion is gonna be focused more around BBS’s? Maybe they’ll use that to introduce new Generals. We’ll see.

I don’t know if they’ll go for the multi-faction cards. It doesn’t make a lot of sense from a lore perspective. I guess you can have some cards that can only work with specific factions but I don’t know. Also if we have cards like that, will they have both factions’ abilities? Oh dear god Blast + Rebirth I am out.

As for your other comment, I am sorry but if a huge part of the playerbase has a problem with how the game is developing, then it’s reasonable to complain. And if that’s going against the developer’s “vision” then I am sorry but you’re gonna end up with a dead game in no time if you’re not appealing to your core demographic.

Magmar centric:
My hopes:

Extremely unlikely but a rework of Starhorn, his lackluster BBS is warping the Magmar faction too much. It is terrible on its own and you really need to build around it to make it work. It has no innate synergy with anything in the Magmar faction so a lot of the ‘new’ Magmar cards will be focused on trying to make Starhorn viable, which will only serve to reduce the number of Magmar cards for Vaath AND split the faction up into two halves. Two halves that have no use for the other’s minions and spells, if you want to do that might as well make Starhorn a different faction so Magmar can be Magmar.

Other hopes: Egg-support after the feeble showing of Shim’Zar, Grow support and more than 2 useable cards for Magmar. More viable archetypes in general for all factions.

My predictions:
A few Starhorn cards trying to push Starhorn, terrible Magmar cards that nobody uses with one or two stand-outs that are staple in every deck. (like Mandrake and Thumping.)

Can you? I know I can’t as I don’t see anything on the steam store page to do it, unless its some sort of region availability issue.

#70

You buy things in the ingame store dude, but with your Steam wallet

#71

I just hope they can pull out Starhorn, Sajj and the entire control archetype out of the gutter. Short matches are good, but not even reaching 9 cores that often is a bit too fast. And I’d love to see the more uncommon

What I’m really hoping for is a bunch of quality of life improvements. For example built-in support for tournaments is key for the future of competitive gaming, and the ability to turn down rendering quality down to oblivion (no animations, no bloom, no particle effects) would attract more casual gamers and make it easier for streamers too.

I see now. The option for using steam wallet doesn’t come up at all unless you start the game up via steam. Which is why I never saw it since I never logged into the game using steam. When you don’t log into the game with Steam the payment options only come up as Paypal or Credit Card.

Indeed ! Glad I helped a bit
