Finn the Human Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 This is way better than the old BD. TNT has finally updated the old BD into something good. Now only if this leads into a plot...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 Love it! Looks amazing. Also like the addition of winning nps/items (of course, that could just be for beta testers) and hope it sticks around! khaos and Emily 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caro Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Looking so cool! I like how comic-esque it looks and such. I imagine more people will be into it with the increased interactivity of it too. Winning NP? That could be pretty awesome too :O Not too sure how loading it will fare on a dial-up internet connection though.. hmmm. I'll have to wait a while to see I guess.

Rival Silver Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 it /does/ look pretty cool- not up to pokemon calibre, but game freak has way more resources/time than the neopets team, so it makes sense. still, looking forward to being able to use it myself!

degenius Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I can't wait to try this out for myself! Thanks for the videos guys :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pchau123 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The graphics and idea stuff are much better, but hmm question is are they adding anything to it? I mean it's easy to do an image revamp. Question is can they do it so more people actually use it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The idea is to make the Battledome more accessible to everyone. So that's why each opponents has three difficulties now. And the prizes (NP and items) are staying :P Emily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezebel Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I wish they would have added importance to Movement LOL They just need to get rid of that stat. And am I correct in stating that their are no stances/healing after the battle any more? I know abilities are still being worked on, so I wonder if stances are, too.

Batman Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The idea is to make the Battledome more accessible to everyone. So that's why each opponents has three difficulties now. And the prizes (NP and items) are staying :P I had no idea that was a difficulty level in that video that cleared up a lot for me. I am excited about prizes and NP that seems like it would make the BD a more liked place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passiflora Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Nice! That's way better than I could have imagined. :O I never used the battledome before, but this actually looks pretty exciting. I definitely hope the prizes stay - it's a great idea, especially since people put so many NP into training their pets. Does anyone think this will affect the battledome avatars, especially now that there are varying levels of difficulty? =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaos Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 This is pretty amazing :O it reminds me of the transition between Pokemon D/P/Pt to Pokemon B/W. i love that there's an easy/medium/hard mode now. that's amazing. i also love the idea of winning Neopoints and/or items. that's sweet. although i have a feeling this will have a ton of bugs in it.

Rebecca~ Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 This looks amazing! :D I can't wait to see what the difficulty levels really mean. Do you only get prizes for beating them on the hardest difficulty? Just more NP on hard? It will be interesting, at least! :D And yeah, I want to echo passiflora on wondering what the different levels will mean for avatars! I still have to beat the Space Faerie, for example- will the easy level be easier than she was before-- and if so, will I be able to get the avatar on easy? I can't wait to try this out though. :D EDIT:]Ooh, I found a link to this fellow's lookup- lots of screencaps of the new BD! http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=dmitri_stanislaus From the look of it, the difficulties start at "Average" -- so likely the difficulty the challenger was before. If that's the case, beating the challenger on ANY difficulty (but will probably be average for everyone, lol) would give the avatar. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovedwallflower Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 looks great.. never been into battledome before but this may entice me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bandit Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 It certainly *looks* a lot better :D Whether they've actually improved it enough to make me want to use it regularly... maybe if they add in a few new avatars as well :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vyvren Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I love that they've made the different BD arenas into... well, different BD arenas :P I think it looks overall a lot better than it did before. The prizes are a great bonus too and I hope they'll keep it. Emily and Rebecca~ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilllisan Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The tombstone in the background who keeps opening it's mouth is kind of annoying me. But other than that this looks super cool and fun! I'm definitely going to start training one of my pets so I'll be prepared for when they launch it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And am I correct in stating that their are no stances/healing after the battle any more? I know abilities are still being worked on, so I wonder if stances are, too. Movement will remain useless as it was. Stances are currently not in the system, but will be added. You no longer automagically heal after a battle (stock on healing potions everyone!) Nice! That's way better than I could have imagined. :O I never used the battledome before, but this actually looks pretty exciting. I definitely hope the prizes stay - it's a great idea, especially since people put so many NP into training their pets. Does anyone think this will affect the battledome avatars, especially now that there are varying levels of difficulty? =/ We don't know how it will affect battledome avatars. Though we know it will still be possible to get them. This looks amazing! :D I can't wait to see what the difficulty levels really mean.

If that's the case, beating the challenger on ANY difficulty (but will probably be average for everyone, lol) would give the avatar. :) For now the NP you gain are set to a very low amount, and a low maximum cap per day. (Items don't work currently, just NP) And it seems like you get more for doing a harder challenger... karmacow, Emily and Rebecca~ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamppost Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 This does look pretty cool. I can't wait to try it out myself. I'm concerned about the flash loading, but it should make battling a lot easier without all the page refreshes. I also noticed that it's not easy to see the icons of damage/defense you're doing. I think the Combat Log will be my friend! You no longer automagically heal after a battle (stock on healing potions everyone!) Rats! That was one of my favorite things about the BD! It should make healing potions inflate. Emily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sara1elo Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Uhhh... Too much action! I am totally with the rewards on Battledome!! Yay! I can't wait to play it but I really hope my computer can work with the new battledome, it freezes with the Neopets 3D games, Key Quest...

Xepha Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Oh and it's clearly not Flash :P I just peaked at the code and it's animated with Javascript (or Jquery or HTML5.) Emily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andaraen Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Rats! That was one of my favorite things about the BD! It should make healing potions inflate.
