Improvements Needed for Arena Mode: Long Queue Times, Game Start Confirmation, and Fair Scoring System

Post by janjoje »

I often experience long waiting times to find an opponent and get matched when playing in real-time Arena mode. This is likely due to the game’s traffic, which is understandable. However, since the wait time can be long, I sometimes focus on other things while the matchmaking screen is open. As a result, I’ve found myself automatically removed from the game because it started without my notice. I believe this has happened to me more than ten times. To address this, I suggest adding a confirmation prompt when the match starts in Arena mode, or implementing a feature where, if a player’s time runs out before they make their first move, the game switches to turn-based mode.

There’s also an issue with Arena mode’s scoring system. For instance, you can play six matches with the same opponent, win five, and gain around +20 points overall, but then lose a single match to the same opponent and lose 35-40 points. I think these areas need improvement

It has nothing to do with the game itself. You should use suggestion forum instead.
