ANSWERED:Suggestions for Snow Wars 2

[MoonlitEevee]

I'm going to compile a list of things while Snow Wars is going on and will update if more issues arise:

 

• Resources need to drop faster in order to build stuff faster

• Some stuff (I feel) needs the ability to rotate like the snow man
• Cannons need to have the ability to be undestroyable otherwise you're just wasting snow resources on nothing but cannons (will be void if the first one is fixed)
• Resources, for some, don't drop at all and need to be fixed
• Fix the Portal 2 Skin resources
• Resources sometimes hide behind damaged walls. Can this be fixed?
• Give us an extra day or two to simply redecorate (without our stuff being destroyed) before closing it off
• Trade off resources out for another type

For me resources keep dropping fine, but I can't find them. Seems that we can't move stuff around when it's destroyed. But we also can't rebuild, since resources are hiding behind broken stuff....

Support the first and second - if these will be implemented there will be no need for undestroyable  cannons

[Keileon]

Also, change the resource numbers on the Portal 2 skin, because uh...

 

 

this is rather hard to read.

[Fuzzbucket]

I wish I HAD a resource to worry about....

[Arkee]

Fix. 'Em. Hitboxes.

I'm having trouble clicking on things and if something spawns? I have to go in and out of the fort to be able to click on it.

Otherwise, I support what others are saying. Either increase the resources dropped or make them drop faster. There's just too much one could build and too little resources to do so, sometimes none for some people. (Not to mention having to repair weapons :/) While on resources, maybe make the refunds the same as the price to build? As it is, it gives little incentive to play around with the decoration.

 

Also please fix the bug where the exp bar "bleeds out" at level 50. Nevermind, this seems to be fixed now.

 

Edit: Maybe find a way for fully damaged forts not to show up in random battle? It's rather annoying to go to battle and find a fort it's already destroyed 😕

Me, too. But it's a minor annoyance, so I just deal with it.

 

I think that the rate at which resources drop seems a little low. 10 of whatever seems to be the most common thing.

 

And please, give us one extra day (or week) to repair our forts to our heart's content once the event ends. Just for our peace of mind.

[Kaityn]

As someone who managed to zoom to max fairly quickly, I'm already seeing an issue with the resource drop rates and costs. I have 30 crystal, no wood (because repairing my hut...) no stone at all (none has dropped yet for me), and all my ice / snow gets used up in repairing. I wish there were a way to trade the excess crystals (that I can't use without stone or wood or both!) for something that I need... 

 

I don't mind having more than just snow as a resource, but I do think 5 different resources is a bit too much variety. I think 3 types would have given us plenty to work with while avoiding a resource famine due to bad RNG.

[VixenDra]

Make it more difficult to delete an object - you can't imagine how easly I deleted a cannon by accident... now I'm so much behind others, because it returned just 3 of snow, while requires 5....

It would be nice if fixing things didn't cost so much. Can't do much with my fort if I'm spending all my resources to fix. Pretty much at this rate I'm just ignoring broken things to build more cannons...

 

Along with VixenDra, I too have accidentally deleted items because the "X" in my mind means "close text box". Would be nice to have a "are you sure" prompt.

I'm on level 50 and have very few resources (because the game doesn't really give many) and no snow at all - I have to spend it on repairing cannons.

Hush - it's cheaper to destroy and rebuild the cannon. Destroy gives you 3 snow back, then you rebuild for 5. Overall: You lose 2 snow.

If you repair, you lose 3 snow. Plus, the cannon might still be on cool down, while a new one can be used at once.

[DragonLady86]

I'm not even getting snow. a little wood here and there, but no snow at all.

Repair gives XP, though, which is nice.

Occasionally, you'll get a present on the hourly. It usually contains quite a bit of snow.

good for you, I've gotten a single stump twice and an ice crystal once.  I've been sitting here for nearly 5 hours.  the only snow I've gotten period, was what I started with.

[Alrexwolf]

I opened the event last night, so theoretically I've been gathering resources this whole time?

 

No stumps. No crystals.

did you level yet? every ten levels you get access to more decorations and the chance at other resources: wood, ice, stone, mana

[olympe]

Ice starting at level 10, wood at 20, stone at 30 and mana at 40... At least that's what it seemed to be. I didn't always check for every level.

[PrincessLucy]

I'm level 1 still. I used the 10 points I had at the beginning, but got nothing new.

As before, I'm going to close this because megathreads make it difficult to follow and discuss individual suggestions without going around in circles (especially since some of these are better classified as bugs–if you're saying something needs to be "fixed," it's probably not a suggestion). The news thread is a great example of this: I've seen the same topics come up over and over. Instead, please make individual threads for requests.

 

That said, saying "add more art" (e.g. new rotations) is asking for people who have already put a ton of effort into the event to do even more work. Things may be added as people have time, but keep in mind this event has been in the works for months, so it's a little unfair to ask for even more.
