I am curious in general, actually. What genre of game is this? I really like the concept of this, and I know of three so far: This, FF BX and the Marvel one. What others are there and which one seems to be the 'best'?

Considering how much it costs to upgrade mods now, I'm not even going to farm them anymore. I can't keep up with the ones we get from raids, and those are better anyway.

Starting at T6, you should start getting 6* mods. A full set of trash mods should at least double the power of a character, so you shouldn't be stuck at T5 for long.

Hello –
We will be releasing three separate updates in the near term. Once we have finished the series of updates, we will post more detailed update notes.
We are taking this approach because there are often players confused about what’s available or not when we need to do these staged releases.
Stay tuned…

Apparently the update today removed mods from raid rewards.

So if they make it nearly impossible to get mods now that they realized how big of a gently caress up they made, aren't there going to be a bunch of people who already farmed/upgraded/whaled mods that are loving unstoppable for the foreseeable future?

Yes, and they did the same thing when they added raids to the game. Before raids, every piece of gear could be farmed from the main campaign nodes. When they announced they were adding raids, they also announced that they were changing certain gear to require pieces exclusive to the raid rewards. A lot of people 'precrafted' a bunch of these components before they made the change so they had a huge step up on everyone else. Due to the speed at which you gain gear from raids (nonexistantly), people who crafted multiple of these hard to get pieces were able to sit at the top of arena getting even more rewards (higher payouts) due to this.

Surprise surprise, they make the same mistake with mods. I could never break top 50 on my shard, and the only thing keeping me in the top 100 was being able to snipe certain players. I always dropped ~50+ spots every night. I 'precrafted' a ton of tier 5 mods and now I just placed #18 and was goomba stomping teams 6k ahead of me in power because my team is actually much stronger due to mods.

Its gonna gently caress everything up, especially when they start throwing mod teams at people in GW. Its already hitting some players and it makes it impossible to finish.

Thanks to how busted rank 15 tier 5 mods are, I went from having trouble cracking top 200 on my old as gently caress shard to easily sitting at 107 all day today. I am the only sub 80 that I have seen since rank 250 or so but apparently nobody can beat my lower level squad because my Rey/Leia are busted and my ST Han is only partially beefed up.

So. Yes.

So not only are they removing mods from raids, they're downgrading the ones you already have. Any six or seven pip mods you got from raid rewards are now five, and also gently caress you.

I have mixed feelings on this. Having missed out on getting the t6 mods from our raid I was pretty pissed off that they got yanked, so taking them away a leviathan that a bit. On the other hand it is yet another big gently caress you to their player base, how many times can one developer do that and stay in business?

Apparently they're not only getting downgraded, but they're changing primary stats too according to some reddit posts.

Either they were taking a massive loss of money compared to normal, or that weird rumor about google play nearly removing them from the store over mass refunds was legit.

They did engage the community. They said "Quit complaining about everything on the official forums or we'll ban you. Also, we are going to roll out three updates and not tell you what any of them are for. Also, everything was exactly working as intended, but now it's not."

So mods are all % based now? That seems vaguely more balanced, but why not just remove them altogether?

This doesn't hurt the Whales that probably have Tier 7 mods, though. Just F2P people who got the Tier 6 via raiding. A stern "no those aren't for you" from the dev.

T6 and t7 don't exist any more for anyone, but the difference between t1 and t5 is still significant a level 15 t1 gives 7.5% protection, while a level 15 t5 has 23.5%.
