15:11 LOL When I first started playing Paladins, I just picked a champ that I thought looked cool and bought them, which is what I think most people do. I also agree that things like cripple, silence, etc, need to be explained in-game for new players. I didn’t know what any of those things did for the longest time. As a developer, you have to cater to both old and new players. You want to maintain your already loyal player base, but you also want to keep new players interested enough to play the game regularly.

Vatu was probably nerfed not because new players are too good at using him, but because experienced Vatu players are too good against new players and the matchmaking is just so random that it happens more often than it should. They also probably wanted the other Talents to be more appealing

Dude you remind me of helvian, you speak exactly like him This isn't a new player issue but it's definitely rant worthy: THE UI GLITCH THAT KEEPS BUTTONS HIGHLIGHTED (AND CLICKABLE) EVEN AFTER THE MOUSE LEFT THEIR HITBOX. Looks like Paladins having hitbox issues isn't even limited just to the gameplay itself!! As a f2p player, I recently bought a 15k gold champion for ONE HUNDRED CRYSTALS because I darted the mouse too quickly across the screen. NO, I did NOT misclick. My cursor was bang on the gold option, but I somehow ended up buying with crystals, because apparently making BUTTONS on an INTERFACE that work properly, the SIMPLEST thing to do while making a menu, is TOO DIFFICULT. And while we're at it, can we talk about that price?? Do you have any idea how much harder it is to get 100 crystals than 15k gold? Achievements and some quests give 50k gold at a time. Meanwhile you are left to scavenge 25 crystals here and there once in an eternity, with a few scattered in the free battle pass rewards, or when you complete a bucket of quests in trials of the realm. Typical gold rewards offer about 13 times the champion buying power than crystal rewards for absolutely no reason. Oh wait, maybe there _is_ a reason. You know exactly what I'm talking about. In fact, that reason is the main thing I suspect is holding the devs back from making champions cheaper, all the same price, or all free. A new player will not buy skins on a game they just picked up and don't even fully understand. And because as you explained, the new player experience is so SHIT (combined with a point you did not mention about the solo queue experience), they probably know a large percentage of those new players will not stick around long term. So their only hope to make some money off of them is that they will see a bunch of characters they like, won't be able to buy them all with the in-game rewards, and just end up spending a quick buck to avoid the grind needed just to play a cool character. End of wall of text.

My only hope for this game to become a good game is a new Paladins 2…there is so much to change in this game! Starting with advertising: this game needs advertising for it to become recognized. I found Paladins many years ago when i was just looking for something new, but a Cover and a little description for sure will not attract people! Also the point you mentioned with all the champions having to be bought I can just agree with! When I started playing the game I was completely overwhelemd by all the cool characters, and not in a negative way, but the problem was that I couldnt unlock any of these cool characters…it literally took me around 1-2 years to unlock all the characters and that for sure is to much! Another big problem for me is the matchmaking! I created a new account since I lost mine a few months ago and afters around 15 games I already faced the same enemies I played against on my old account! The matchmaking is just not consistent! One game u are playing against literal bots and the round after you stand no chance! Also with teammates leaving all the time and not being punished most of the games are just impossible to enjoy…besides that there are MANY more problems HI-Rez could fix and make the game and outstanding one if they gave Evil Mojo the budget they deserve! I was an absolute fan of Paladins but lately I am not feeling like playing anymore, and that really makes me upset! I hope they finally wake up and understand whats wrong with the game!

The amount of champions is no problem, but make the prices and such with some sense. Easy champions should be cheap or free, while hard champions should be very costly. This is because there is a huge difference in the difficulty of some champions. But more importantly, we need a new tutorial (with some story maybe?) that lasts for about 1/2 to 1 hour of gameplay and goes through the easiest champions and provides some tips or training. For example: - Using the communication tools. - Buying items. - Staying with your group! - Trying to help your team! - There are ults that work together.... - What is the sense of talents and decks? It's hard in an ever-changing game with infinite possibilities, but it's 100% possible with some "obvious" long-staying examples. (And if it changes after years, you can just change it in the tutorial too...) This would help paladins with its image. And others could better understand what the game is trying to be (gamers as well as developers). The wiki should be implemented inside the game as well as two report options: One dedicated to the wiki And another one to report bugs and ideas P.S. The test champion idea is great. They could even charge like 500 or 1000 coins. But actually, I would like to get them (a lot) in the battle pass. With that (and the many currencies this game gets and loses), they should give people just a recycle bin to dump useless items for a very small amount of crystals. Well, if they do it, it will be Paladins 2. But if they do make Paladins 2 and it is not somewhat like that, we will have some problems.

I think most if not all champs should now be unlocked for all new players. all 15k and 30k at least. I was really looking forward to the new Tidal Surge update, but just been perma banned, lol. Read Hi-rez reviews, they dont care about it either, as in you can get perma banned for using a swear word. While cheaters run rampant in Ranked and high elo games. The company is dreadful, they dont care about their subsidiaries like evil mojo. Its sad but I think obviously im finally done. Good luck X

I'm 4k hours In, few times GM, playing from 2016. All I can say, the game is dead from 2018. If there is no esports in game, you have nothing to do then. Devs don't make money, they don't reinvest anything. They want too, they are nice ppl, but Hi-Rez just don't give them extra penny to revive the game. And casual players losing too, no esports = fewer updates, worst balance, less interesting things to do in game. (sorry English, not my first lang.)

i disagree, i think you can indeed balance for both old and new players. because this game alows you to. new players use default decks and making sure complex deck options are avaible allow for those with experience to maximize gameplay through talents but the main way it should be done is with the talents. where the 3 should range from ez-calm to intermediate to expert where the talent rewards you for your skill be that positioning or kill/assists. an example of this is cover boy androxus' talent progression with default talent being defiant fist which is a damage focused easy talent to comprehend that adds value to game play regardless of you having it or not as a new player but requires some experience to realise to full potential through making sure to hit the maximum shot value for your next punch in the face to be significant, after time into the lvl2 talent godslayer does the same thing to a ability with a cooldown that requires you to know when to use best and how to use it effectively given you can now aim to redirect the reversal dmg onto an opponent to turn the tide of a game, requiring you to not only have aim skill but positioning and some game sense. then the last skill is the highest skill talent that grants more mobility options where with no cheap damage boost one must use game physics, talent attributes, positioning, game sense and good aim to make sure the added value of the talent doesnt (easily) go to waste. new players are forced naturally to wards the first 2 due to the lvl requirement and ease of use, but in higher elos u can expect the use of the last talent to be used more effectively as overall skill increases. i however i agree with everything else they need to relax with the balances an make a new tutorial that explains everything(including item shop, loadouts, talents and mechanics) and a shooting ground that lets you test out more things.

I get what you're cooking but I dont think andro was a good choice to pick as an example. All 3 of Andros talents take one ability and makes that ability easier, Defiant fist just gives andro more burst, Godslayer removes the skill needed to get damage out of reversal and just instead gives Reversal constant value no matter what and Dark Stalker removes the thought of when to use nether step since it removes the timer on the base ability. I get what you're getting at and they could balance Talents this way but this just limits playstyles and makes talents have to follow a pattern which defeats the creativity that they're supposed to give.

@@xstbe if you dont mind me asking... i dont see how playstyles are limited. as talents remove the short comings these provide, isnt how you expand playstyle through loadouts and theyre ability to give more out of different types of scenarios. do you mean that you prefer talents as seen on healers that each vastly change how one plays? if this is what mean, would you then say if defiant fist caused a cripple or slow it be better, or like if dark stalker was quieter and granted dr while floating, or like godslayer gave speed boost and dmg boost after dmg absorbed threshold.... if so i see it makes a lot more sense that way

@@zigzagintrusion there are dozens of videos and ex pro players who will say the same thing. New players don't have the knowledge to know what is actually op or not is as ezz as that. Seris for example is liked by bronze and new players but in higher elo she is literally one of the worst supports, but in lower ranks io for example is also liked and in higher ranks she does fine to. New players can't hit shots that well, can't do strategy or comps they just explore the game, they complain that champs like evie or vatu are hard but in higher ranks those are the best flanks and that's why you can't buff them.

You should not play paladins as a new player there’s an average of 3k players. Not to mention in casuals I Que the same people over and over. Usually it’s a 5 stack and if not it’s a duo healing and dps-ing the lobby. They pick the weak link and constantly cause staggers. I played 5 games in a row with no tank and no healer. Not to mention seris is the only healer you’ll ever see in casuals even if you have 2 flanks that get zero benefit from her. At this point it’s just a competitive game not a casual game even in casuals. It’s usually one team just beat the garbage out of the other team.
