Wow, it’s about time these were changed. After you get the 6 feud promoters there’s little to no reason to carry on playing stip tours.
This is a step in the right direction and will definitely give me as well as many others a reason to play these again.
Have you considered doing the same with the showdown store and rotate the character shards/moments every few months? I know the store has been update a couple of times since the change but I personally never go below 1 million showdown coins due to not having enough to use them on and the refresh cost is obscene. I buy star frags and whatever resources from there daily.

This is one of the most promising changes in years. It’s great that skill and strategy is brought back into the game rather than everybody just auto playing KO the same way and letting the RNG cascades determine the winner. I’ll have more feedback once it’s rolled out and we see what the store looks like, but this is a very good and refreshing change to what had become a very stale and boring game mode.

Longgggg overdue. But definitely appreciate it. Props for fonally changing it. My schedule is hectic so im still 2 short ( including Taker) so this is a most welcomed change.

Another great update

You need to be able to choose to play male or female.

Not that I’m a newer player, but I have a question concerning any of them…. Are they still able to get the promoter shards in that shop as well as this new stuff? Because this new refresher is definitely needed, thank you, just curious about how those promoters will be available to newer players or even players that are returning.

It will be a breathe of fresh air lifted into the game. Any way to look at what you have maybe already in the game and needs a face lift is great.

Looks like a fantastic update. Hopefully it delivers when it goes live. I'll add more thoughts when I get to try it out.
On a semi-related note, can we get the showdown store updated every couple of months also? That was a fantastic update when released but unfortunately, it's completely stale now.

I’ll give it a week before everyone gets bored again

Pretty excited to see this update. I used to do Stips all the time but when I realized I was not getting any IOW Affiliation straps, I just stopped. It's a fun mode and I am looking forward to seeing what items I can earn.

Looking forward to the update
Any chance of making the faction boss shop more accesable as its really frustrating curretly0 -
As others have said, this is a welcome fix. Additionally, dropping the number of rounds from 9 to 7 seems like the right move for this mode. We’ll have to see how it all plays but with cautious optimism, I’ll give you a “Nice work, Scopely.”
Nice work, Scopely.0 -
on paper this should be a great update. However we will see how it goes. Hopefully the costs of shards is sensible otherwise this is all for nothingn

would love to see a higher drop rate for affliation strap for IOW superstar.
been getting every strap i can. and those IOW affiliation strap don't drop often

thank you for changing this dead mode. I hope there will be better ways to acquire promoter taker now as this has been a frustrating process.
I am looking forward to trying it when it is running.
I hope the stability will be better. Crashing caused issues a lot in this mode before leading to losing health and the free first time competing ability.

First day of new stip tours. Holy crap are things expensive! I realize the payouts went up, but that inflation is no joke!! Way too pricey. And reducing the rounds to 7? It can get pretty difficult at 9 if your gem luck sucks. At 7 there is zero room for error. Plus taking away an enforcer. And of course my first battle on hard mode got me zero gems I could power up with. Epic fail so far. I am a subscriber and so far pretty pissed. We will see how the week goes.

Just tried the new stip tour, didn’t expect much but sounded promising.
A loooot harder to max now, even with the predestined characters, but you can get a lot more coins now…which is irrelevant because the cost of the items is 10 !! times higher than before…
The loot boxes are not really worth anything, and the chances of finally getting an usable IOW affiliation strap is probably still tending to zero…so, saves me a lot of time ‘cause it’s still not worth to be played. It’s sad, could have been made interesting again…

This was a silly revamp, and those shop prices are ridiculous. I was exciting for nothing. GG

Items are ridiculously overpriced.Coins are great,but not when 15 shards cost a million
1 -
Having played this now, I’m considerably less impressed. The rewards are piddling. Insulting, really. And even with the reduction in rounds, this feels like a slog.
I hereby retract my “Nice work, Scopely.”
Do better, Scopely.1 -
really li,e the overhaul my only complaint is the cost of stuff in the stip shop. It's ridiculous 2.4 mill for 15 shards. At that rate there still is no reason to play stips. Make the items and especially the shards reasonable and gemamania will be a wonderful addition
1 -
Well.. I'll say this... if Scopely's intention was to take a mode that nobody wanted to play and revamp it so we'd want to play it; they missed the mark. Cuz I don't wanna play it any more than I did before. In fact, with it being more of a pain in the ass in terms of scoring and with items costing more, I kinda wanna do it less.
Can we just get rid of this mode already? This isn't an improved experience. Reducing the number of turns doesn't reduce the time you're stuck in a submission.
Bring back Invasion. It's time. People really don't wanna do boss battle, they don't wanna do this nonsense, and some folks are getting annoying with the number of showdown events (the career showdown one really should go away too. We already have at least 2 showdown event a month and they pay out better than the career showdown).
And why are we still using these tired azz enforcers? Revamped this thing and can't even revamp with new enforcers? Corporate Kane and Honky Tonk Man still?
Why is it 1.2 million coins for 15 Miz shards? 2.4 million 15 Charlotte shards. Wtf

I was thrilled when the changes were announced, and while I do think the game mode itself has become exponentially better, the absurd prices in the store have taken the air out of the balloon. For example:
In the old system getting first place in hell mode netted you 50,000 stip coins. With a price of 62,500 for an IOW strap, that was a ratio of 1.25 price-to-reward.In the new system you have jacked up the price of straps 10x, but you only increased the leaderboard reward for first place by 5x. Thus the price-to-reward ratio is now 2.5.
In other words you now only get half the purchasing power as before despite winning at a theoretically harder game mode. You shouldn’t post a blog to get players excited about receiving more coins when you jack up the prices of the same items by an even bigger factor. This is a huge loss. And you’re specifically punishing the people who “win” at the game mode, which is the wrong direction to go IMO.Competition is good for the game, and you will breed more competition by making the rewards for winning worthwhile for the players who are better than me. Right now they’re all sitting on the sidelines because these scraps are not worth the effort.
Please fix these wildly out of balance prices and/or flimsy rewards.2 -
2.4 million chips for 15 Tech Charlotte shards? 4 million for an MP plate??
I got about 200k today, and that was with the three refreshes on Normal. That would mean we'd have do this for 12 days just to get 15 shards. Oh but these tours are only going to be active for 4 days, we don't know how the marquee tour works just yet (but making it a 3 day thing is already cause for worry), so it would actually take longer than that.
Lowering the number of turns from 9 to 7 does make each stage shorter, this is true. But it's also making it harder to recover when HOF Sheik or Gunther put you in a sub and completely screw you over. Next time I'll know to bring the proper props to deal with these situations I guess.
I don't think players are going to be as excited for these changes as you think they are.

I appreciate a great deal that this update did not include stealing everyone's currency and starting us all at zero.
The new store is massively over priced however. 1.6 million for 10 shards of Sami means I will need 186 million to recruit him. Thats ridiculous.
As far as the new play style...I don't know. Not immediately enthusiastic.
Once again though…all that was needed was a refresh to the store...everything else was unnecessary. Why go to all this trouble when the only thing you really needed to do was spice up the store?
1 -
Price of the goodies should be adjusted and their should be more points given for the breaking specific gems.
I can't even 2 star in hell mode and their shouldn't be any submission guys as the opponents who have more than 3 submission turns.
The overpriced items just killed all my excitement for this revamp.
2 -
As miserable of an experience this was playing through, I'm already not going to bother with it anymore. At least the previous mode, could play PH KO on auto and get the points. The reward isn't worth the effort… in my opinion, you've just made it so now, no one will ever play it or get their feud promoters.
Half the tour having submission opponents, so you either have to bring a stun, mp down guy, or use props. Which I don't want to waste props on this tour.
The scoring is horrendous, I only was able to 2 Star Hell Mode, with The Miz blowing the full board. D-Lo Brown and HoF Macho I wasn't able to get to do enough points either, they're Blue & Multiply.Pretty much like showdown, I just simply don't want to play the rewards aren't worth the amount of effort needed to put in.
