And that’s impressive, he’s got a big head.
I’m guessing we’ll never know.
They took on the Separatists on their home planet of Naboo, btw. Star Wars, Episode 1: The Phantom Menace.
Like, we spent money to get these characters R5 and you're spitting back in our faces with your garbage RNG rubbish.
For once maybe don't add 98% RNG to something in the game you release? The other 2% is a game breaking bug.
What the heck happened to releasing QUALITY and FUN? Seriously?
I'm not defending RNG-dependent events (I made a HUGE deal out of the Aphra unlock solo-Hondo tier, carefully stepping through my reasoning) I'm just trying to get the feedback clear and understandable.
first tier is pretty easy. just attack. The 2nd to 4th the issues were that the AI kept targeting Jar Jar and the droidekas do their big hit, he dies, and you lose. That happened too often. (I have a tank, but he's useless because he doesn't have a taunt that sticks very long, seems like an issue.) Jar Jar is supposed to "Stun" any enemies with protection, but that move only stuns enemies WITHOUT protection, so the droidekas get stunned sometimes.
I'm on the 5th and it's worse RNG. I've gotten to the 2nd wave mostly, even putting arena / GL mods on the team, they still target jar jar way too often and he dies. A few times the B1 out of nowhere does a big AOE and my whole team goes bye bye. Even at full health and protection. If you mark B1 though, it goes away immediately and then ends up on nute or droideka.
It's just too much "RNG" and it's getting tiresome to have to deal with it over and over because CG is too lazy to come up with something other than "let's have the mission defeat if one character dies and have the AI target that character 25% of the time! Yay!"
I forgot to mention, CG has the shield generator as a higher priority target for the AI too (which we've already seen in other parts of the game) so the AI attacks the generator 2, 3, 6, 10 times in a row and once it is gone, your team pretty much just melts away. So yeah, it's an interesting mechanic, but CG made it the lazy way and so it's just a dumb worthless thing that lets you survive a little longer.
But what's the use of that CG when you program your AI to target it and they attack 2, 3, 5 times in a row with assists, bonus attacks, extra bonus attacks, your mom's attacks, and so on? It's gone before I'm even 3 turns in to wave 2 because of your RNG garbage and then my team gets melted.
Oh, I know! I'm supposed to take the whole team to R9 right CG? that'll make it easy!
I'm sure it works just fine with CG's 16 mil power roster though, which is why it's fine...
Thanks for your more detailed thoughts.
I finally got through it after another dozen attempts. Wave 2 is just crazy drawn out. after you kill all the other droids, a droideka spawns in and you have to take out nute twice just like normal. If you've survived wave 2 for over 5 minutes you might be okay and will get through it. It just takes a lot of time and energy.
