Based on the actual rules of the game, I would like an event or at least a mode that is 7v7, has no time limit, and ends when you grab the Golden Snitch.

It wouldn’t take that long probably 10 mins or 15 min at max… fortnite matches are 20-25 mins for example

#

I would say have the snitch come out at the start but make it harder to catch

no snitch trail but it leaves rings when being chased

I like that

And no indicator on the screen for where it has gone after a sharp turn

It would need faster movement, more erratic movement, and to be an actual game of hide and seek.
The snitch as is, even without a max speed broom (6/7 max speed) you can stay right behind the snitch, and even if you get thrown from where it is, you can almost instantly refind it, even without the snitch marker (I didn't realize they added one to the game until the 4th or 5th time playing seeker, as I swaped to it late and the bot wasn't on top of it)
That's a lot of changes for a special mode, though a lot of HP fans keep asking for it, so... it might be worth it for a non competitive mode (if only they did this for the campaign...)

You could simply hard coded it to have the snitch show up after like 5 minutes or something if no seeker found it before. Obviously they would have to make it harder to find, and also harder to catch

I find the snitch more often on keeper than I do on seeker, but I can't do anything about finding it. (But that might be due to the fact I've only played seeker once in PvP because yay fill being keeper)

The snitch needs completely reworked on its movements to make the seeker work harder for it to earn their points so people will stop complaining.

Ending the game from snitch is dumb, stop being a nerd, not games plays like its imitation. That's why video games are a "simulation".

How if a Pro counter Beater is aggressive and the Pro counter Seeker shoving. That's what makes the snitch hard, not the snitch itself.

signal sand
#

because all you have to do is be close to the snitch grow the meter. also counter measures from the pro seeker can come in as well making it easy if they just stay in the area

frosty stag
#

What?

#

I'm not understanding what you're talking about.

#

One Seeker should make it harder for the other and the Beater should make it harder for the opposing Seeker.

signal sand
#

I have played many many matches now and the only issues i have really had was the beaters. Also the beater should not only focus on the seeker. The seeker should have a hard enough time dealing with the other seeker if they are good enough and the snitch. The snitch is supposed to be hard to catch even without any outside forces. That is why the snitch needs reworked (at least for 6v6). The snitch needs be more sporadic and less predictable. Also if me wanting this game that is based off of something that can be referenced and taken note from to be more accurate, makes me a nerd then so be it. I will not apologize for wanting the game to be more like the book.

thank you

frosty stag
#

Lmao I didn't even read where you said the part about the book and I assumed correctly 😂 🤣

#

You're just a nerd who wants it like the book.

signal sand
#

The beater still does not need to hard focus on the seeker is the point.

We need 3 Chaser, 2 Beater, 1 Keeper and 1 Seeker.

signal sand
#

No because it doesnt make sense for the team. you are taking a team member who could be taking out the keeper so that you can score easier and hard focusing someone who has a lower chance of scoring. Are you stupid.

Bro do you hear any other sports game getting rule changes from their source material because it makes the easier? NO. The game is set the way it is for a reason. You dont see a madden game saying well the reciever can only catch the ball but not run with it because it would be more balanced that way because that is not how the game is played

Ok your arguing for 3v3 I am arguing for 6v6. I said that at the beginning. Pay attention child and you might learn something. The way it is right now will not work for a competitive gameplay. Stuff gets left up to bots too much for that and that is why competitive will be on 6v6. Now In 6v6 the snitch needs reworked is what I said because in thosee settings the beaters should not be hard focusing the seekers.

And I bet they'll probably have the snitch out the whole match and you guys are going to complain.

signal sand
#

No I won't because that is how the game is supposed to be.

Your argument is invalid. You have no actual basis to go off of for why 6v6 will be bad. You are just a casual player and I accept that. enjoy your day and happy games.

they can add special team moves that add more points then they can add that the snitch is caught 150 points and boom game ended

stray talon
#

Yes they can. But they didn't. I hope they do.

the rules of quidditch was written by a writer, so you can see the flaw there no? second, this is a videogame and have to be balanced in some ways. wait some time and gonna appear a mod with original rules. here have to be fun for everyone.

frosty stag
#

THANK YOU. I almost lost faith in humanity. An author can LITERALLY write that quidditch is balanced but for a competition like a videogame you can't just go off the authors description, she knows nothing about balancing a video game.

@frosty stag jajaja exactly, even if there is a bit unbalance, i have to say, we are in a moment a bit toxic of videogames, all have to be ranked, all have to be measured. and at the and always gonna be unbalanced for one or the other... when competitive people understand that life is what really matters, good games, and good games communities gonna emerge again. 🙂
