These things are kinda pointless

These things are kinda pointless

Lemme preface this by saying I have every sprite currently in the game, so this isn't some complaint about how hard they are to find. But sprite chests have to be the most pointless thing this season, with the exception of the Grims and gummy and galaxy zp, which I traded for, every sprite I own has come from either a regular or blue chest, these sprite chests give you nothing but regular ducks or the water, fire or earth sprites. The first zp I saw naturally, was from an ordinary chest.

Idk I just think that at the very least the sprite chest should only drop variants, like I don't care if it's only a gold fire sprite just drop something other than the same 4 base variants, because right now they're kinda pointless. And I think it's why a lot of people have such terrible luck with power hours they seek out these pointless things, meanwhile my strat has been dropping at blue poi then b-lining across the map opening every chest possible and it's worked out pretty well.

When the team I spared because they were just trying to sprite hunt is the last team left

Genuinely had this happen a few times this season, sometimes it's someone I just headshot with a hunting rifle because I just react to movement, sometimes it's someone I gave a sprite, one time it was someone who face planted in front of me at an extraction point and I gave healing.

Do you give them the win, do you just backout, or do you just finish the match.

I owe you an apology punk sprite I was not familiar with your game

Lvl 5 punk sprite and flare gun has to be the funniest combo being able to spam flares non stop

Meh power hour

drop rates were fine but what's the point of giving us the mythic goldfish and it only doing 90? The only good thing about it is it one shots

This season has brought out the worst in the community

As fun as the sprite gimmick is some people are taking this way too serious, whether it's scamming people, or griefing teammates for a sprite you don't have I've seen some extremely wild behavior for a bunch pixels. It's kinda disappointing, a game is never that deep.

Are they called mythics because it's a myth that they're in chests

The only zp I've gotten have been on other players, but on the bright side galaxy hour was decent, managed to get every non mythic

The zero point sprite is a psyop by big Epic to get us to play more

Does it even exist, yeah I know people traded for it but how many people found it legit and where? Seen every sprite in match, a few of which I managed to extract without getting cooked except this thing, not one spawn, hell I just learnt there's a queue for it spawning in your lobby apparently everyone gets a shield bubble visual audio icon, never seen it

Beta Feedback

As a developer myself, I’m intentionally avoiding the standard beta pain points (clunkiness, unpolished graphics, and pacing issues), these are expected parts of the process and will hopefully improve anyway.

Instead, I want my feedback to be about, at least what I consider,a more critical, structural challenge: the value proposition.

Right now, the gameplay loop feels similar to RSL. If thats the intended target audience, offering slightly better drop rates or minor quality-of-life improvements won't be enough to disrupt the market.

When going for players from Raid, you aren't just competing against their gameplay mechanics; you are competing against the sunk-cost fallacy.

For Godforge to succeed, you have to answer a the question: How do we convince a player who has invested years of time and money into Raids established ecosystem to abandon that progress and start over with Godforge?

Currently, the beta doesn't offer enough of differentiator to answer that. Godforge needs something that makes it unique or a mechanic that Raid cannot easily replicate, rather than just being a slightly fairer? alternative.

TL;Dr Godforge needs it own identity to succeed
