turn based and live games
Posted: 19 January 2021, 16:26
I have a suggestion that should improve the competitive side in BGA.
You tried with arena mode, but for me the main problem still is the mixed classements for turn based and live games.
I am a live gamer, and with what I will type next, I don't want to offend turn based gamers, I understand that is a way to play games for people who don't have long stretches of time available and for those who like to get paid by their boss while playing on BGA
Arena didn't solve some old problems, like...I'm 3rd in Targi now and nr.1 and 2 play only turn based...will never play them as I play only live. They do not bother playing Arena mode, I saw they played some games, but are far removed from the nr.1 in Arena.
So, who's the better player? Well, in the past I had another account and when nr.1 was still playing some live games (he is nr.1 since years now), I beat him 2 times on 2 tries.
But I'm sure he is the best at the same game if we play turn based.
The skills you need in live games are different than the ones you need in turn based games.
In live games thinking fast is a bonus, in turn based games patience is a bonus.
Both skills are valuable but very different.
That's why you have a blitz chess champion and a regular chess champion. Blitz is fast. Regular is slow and often turn based.
Make separate classments, please.
