As I sit here in this ARC warzone match, getting our -Yoinks!- absolutely destroyed, I thought about a REQ/energy level change that would solve some issues.
There are two problems I can see with the REQ level gain/flow as they currently exist. 1) As it currently exists: Sometimes your team can get their -Yoinks!- whooped so hard, that you’re REQ level 2 while they’re REQ level 7 and then, hell, we might as well just quit right? That’s how a lot of people end up quitting, they don’t find it particularly exciting getting pinned down by level 7 REQ cards. Even a good player can get pinned in a situation like that.
2) As it currently exists: If the game isn’t scored evenly by the time one team reaches 800+ points, you reach a situation where no team has the opportunity to use their best REQs, such as Mantis and Phaeton. This is pretty lame because, well, people earned these things, so why only 33% chance to use them for a decent amount of time? I have long believed that every warzone non-core match, each team should at least reach level 7 in their REQs, and the winning team easily hitting level 9 for a generous amount of time.
The current way to earn REQs is capturing bases and killing AI opponents, it’s the fastest REQ leveling method there is. If a team has an AI kill squad, they’re building REQs FAST. Most public games do NOT have a squad for this. The solution to this problem should not reduce the importance of killing AI and capturing bases, but should give a passive gain to REQ level. Therefore…
As it should be: Each side should passively gain REQ level based on time. It should be the same amount gained passively, with the better team having a high REQ because they participate in AI kills and base captures. This would mean instead of the score/REQ being 892(7) to 227(2), it would be more like 892(9) to 227(4), It would at least give a fighting chance to the spawn trapped team, and a long drawn out loss would still net some REQ card fun for all players.
I usually get level 8 just defending a base, albeit by the time I get it it is usually just about over and I dont really get to use my energy bayonette projection SMG much, which makes me sad. I do have those times where the other team is just so good that I barely even get to use the BR though. those matches suck.
I have to agree with the point about high level REQ cards only becoming available when the game is almost over. By the time you can bring in your best REQs you’ll probably decide against it because you don’t want to waste them

Yea, usually I just don’t waste my time with my high level reqs. I used a mantis that I got one time (a single one, have yet to get another and the game was over before I could even kill anyone. (they killed warden and it ended) That sucked big time.

The game is great. But there are games, which is very frustrating. Sometimes I kill 18 in a game and other games my opponents are immortal and they kill me very easily.
Can you please keep us updated 343i? Why haven’t we got any further news?

I just feel like having access to REQs sooner would discourage the constant BR spam. I honestly just want to quit when I see a game that is constant base to base BR fights. That is so boring. So very boring.

I despise suggestion number 2. that is an awful idea. Players who are way better then the opposition shouldn’t be punished because you as a low skilled player cant keep up. if im beating you so bad in mid and late game i shouldn’t be punished by not being allowed to call in my Req 7-8 reqs like mantis or my phaeton. instead you should focus on killing more and doing better to get higher req lvls to combat my Higher reqs.

I think you’re confused.
If by suggestion #2 you mean the text following “2)”, that wasn’t a suggestion. That’s how the game currently plays. Sometimes you beat a team so fast (without killing the core), you don’t even reach level 7, or if you do, you’re only level 7 for about 30 seconds which means it’s worthless to pull out a big REQ card.
