I think the scaling and gameplay slowdown was hastily implemented as a decision from the top to make the game more casual friendly.
* Dodging is shorter, not long enough to bypass some hitboxes
* Some attacks have had their frame data slowed down but not their hitstun, so enemies can escape the combo
* Projectiles on Superman and Rick look funny (Meesiks is a manlet the size of Morty now)
* Some levels, like Dexter's Lab, look tiny and stupid and the outside bounds are really smmall that you can easily combo people off screen

I got to level 10 on the battle pass in two days and only playing like 5 hours total. So it’s not too difficult to get it going, tbh. If you play 10 pvp or pve matches with a character from franchises, you can get a pretty good chunk of xp.

Oh yeah, i'm 100% sure, i even mentioned here back that exact theory and later again when the new gameplay was shown slower.
As much as i love the beta speed, the game was not noob friendly. Before the server closed every 2v2 match felt like a onesided stomp against sweaty duos or first timers, i'd see people throw the match out the spite so the other team doesnt get EXP (me 2). Even as an expectator 2v2 matches were hard to keep track.
One other thing is that hitboxes were reworked so you're more likely to clash/trade outside of weapon attacks. This means spamming is a good move like Shaggy's kick is a lot safer because it takes a lot more effort to punish it without getting hit.
I also heard "rumors" the game will be released on mobile eventually which sounds dumb but would explain some bizarre things like the bigger models, camera zoom and less control options (cant lower buffer or reverse neutral with direction). If it does, it would make sense why it's slower and friendly.
Me and many people are more concerned with the feels than the time. You could probably reach that in less than an 1 hour if you simply do challenges on easy rifts and play 5 pvp matches, but if i want to spend all saturday playing (which i did often) it sucks to not earning anything extra.
It's not good for short term player satisfaction therefore player retention. If they're avoiding to burnout players then it doesnt work cause the Rift sure requires a lot of grinding.
But the real crux here is how bad the BP levels will scale later on. The beta had every BP get progressively grindier with the last one final levels being offensive. This battle pass has actual post clear BP rewards now so players get rewarded for doing challenges after clearing the BP. As long as you get a lot of spare time to complete everyone will be happy in the end.

Oh, for sure. But the overly-grindy part of the game has been the biggest complaint other than speed, and the devs have acknowledged the issue, so I’m hoping the can get it patched fairly easily. Maybe not as fast as it used to be, but faster than it is now.
And they adjust grinding issues before, so hopefully they can find a better balance.

More rants about the PcE:
* Not really PvE, it's vs bots
* Very similar to SSBswitch and it's spirits
* Like others have said, very grindy and requires you to level up your gems (spirits) to unlock higher difficulties
* A lot of bonus games would be a lot more fun if you weren't inside a tank of cannon
* Some missions require a certain character to max, but some require a certain character to play or even a skin!

The game is beocming unplayable to me, and not in a disingenuous hyperbolic way but a LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE way.
Fucking hard crash after loading screen
Of the 6 or 5 matches i started, 1 had a player drop (afk) and 2 went full disconnected
Probably the WORST bug i ever had in this game, where Jason managed to grab both Lebron and Taz with a bag, except only lebron came out and Taz fucking disappears for the rest of the game.
Jason would die and somehow not respawn again
Then i kill lebron and he respawns but i die and and DONT respawn so i'm forced to stare at lebron alone having nothing to fight and proceeding to kill himself, only for me to win the match.
All i want is to do the daily pvp challenge and i cant even finish a match.

Iv1 pvp works better than 2v2 right now. Mine’s been a bit spotty as well, but I’m also currently having to play off my phone’s hotspot in an iffy area, so meh.
Right now I’m just trying to find someone willing to do rifts so I can get the friend bonuses for that.

A lot of characters are shit in 1v1, and 1v1 is dominated by mostly Finn/Harley/Bugs tryhards.

From what I remember from the beta, certain times of the day are just utterly dominated by tryhards, both 1v1 and 2v2. It’s been a similar experience now that the games out again.

I’m fully aware the game has problems, but there’s some real idiots online calling the game a scam because you don’t get all the characters free and “can only unlock them by paying money”.
Like you can fairly argue it’s too grindy in places, but there’s some real stupidity going on out there.

So this version of the game is somehow worse than the previous version from a year ago? I'm...not surprised.

Man it's frustrating to try to main a character that isn't Buggs/Harley/Finn/Shaggy. Like it's clear we're not on even playground; my character has like 5 moves that are useable, against their entire kit. My character has obvious shortcomings, theirs do not.

I main Gizmo and Reindog because I specifically enjoy fighting and winning against those kinds of people.
I’ve also been playing BG and Jason cause I have fun with them.

It's not like the unlocks are particularly hard, they give so much character currency that you can have a handful pretty quick. If you bought tickets in beta, the currency is literally worthless. Not letting people test the characters first is the big issue, not that you have to unlock them. Dummies like this one are half the reason games are so shit now. Retards who don't know the first fucking thing about game design thinking they know what the fuck they're talking about and making demands.
I feel this so hard. If they didn't nerf the living shit out of Stripe in beta, he'd still be able to keep up with the top tiers even with his speed being neutered. He was legitimately fucking good on release (I even had people claim he was broken when Beta Superman, Bugs and Iron Giant fucking existed, all of which were straight up broken or horribly jank), then they took everything away and left him with a whopping 1 reliable kill move, no priority, and now he's also slow and can't dodge anything.
Still logging in to do non-pvp dailies so I can still pick up that Stripe skin at 21, but as soon as I knock my missions out, I'm off. I ain't fucking touching pvp till they fix the fucking servers and preferably add ranked so the sweatlords can fuck off and let casuals actually play a pvp mode... and hopefully buff Stripe a bit. You might as well just put the controller down when the match starts if it's the top 4 (or Giant), because he's that fucking gimped right now.

Without his broken side-special BG would still be decent. Jason has a lot of good moves and openers. He's also hard to punish with his long range.
I've been trying SU and boy, half of my kit is useless. My only two kill moves are side air and charge attack, which are really easy to punish. Upair/downair have shit hitboxes. Charge attacks have terrible range. I'm down to spamming the same 3 moves and hoping for the best.
Even Garnet, who is pretty decent, has some weakness of her own. For starters, her air game is shit. Her hitbox on her side special is trash and her attacks come out super slow.
At least 2v2 is still kinda chaotic and not dominated by 3 characters. I'd say, Finn, Buggs and Harley are absolutely dominating 1v1. Only characters like Shaggy, WW and Morty may stand a chance.
The most annoying thing is that getting hit doesn't restore your aerials... I get it's a decision, but that makes you end up flailessly falling off the stage. It's very exploitable.

I was looking at videos I took of the beta, and I am actually kind of glad they slowed things down. Still think it was a bit TOO slow, but the tryhards were even worse back then when they could take out out in like three seconds without me even knowing what happened. At least now I can seee and comprehend what’s being done so I know how to escape/counter.
And yeah, hopefully they’ll let you train with them for free again or something.
Even with the issues though, I still really enjoy this game. And I’m not really a fighter/platform fighter guy.

This right here is why 2v2 being damn near unplayable irritates me so much. Even without ranked, 2v2 is at least chaotic enough that you generally don't feel cheated when you lose and you stand a reasonable chance of winning with just about any character because they may end up synergizing in unexpected ways with all the matchup possibilities. 1v1, you stick to the tiers, or pray and proceed to get pissed when its Sweatdude #20-in-a-row running an S tier because they don't have their ranked playground to shit stomp each other in.

I hope they put some QUIT MATCH button somewhere, cause apparently they forgot that too. I tried doing rifts and i fail a challenge i cant retry for the max score, i HAVE to finish or fail and i cant even die on the cannon ones.
This is, unironically, literally the only modern game i have ever played without a quit button. Why the hell did they rush this release again if it was clearly not ready? You could've waited a few more months, it's not like there's any incoming competition anyway. Did Warner say "fuck it we need that MTX money NOW!" or did they not learn from the beta?
If an update is happening it's problably when the next rift unlocks in a few days. We might get tiny balance changes too, i expect to see banana guard side-special nerfed.
