What do you think of the Weekly Challenge game mode?

Weekly_challenge.png
#

A weekly challenge that lets you play the same map over and over, competing against others to get the best score on the leaderboard.

Here's how it works:

  • Every week, a new single-player challenge will be available to everyone, regardless of platform
  • The game will always be Perfection with a reduced turn limit (20 turns).
  • The Weekly Challenge will be the same for everyone, so, same tribe, same opponents, same seed. You don't need to own a particular tribe or skin to be able to play that week's challenge
  • The banner at the top of the menu will show you what tribe you'll be playing with
  • You can attempt the Weekly Challenge multiple times
  • Your best attempt that week will be put up on the leaderboard for all to see

I love the fact that you can watch the winners' replays to see exactly how they won.

Does this chat stay or gets reset each week?

#

I presume stay

#

It is general

knotty merlin
#

I love the concept. I like that its much quicker than perfection (and I still enjoy that mode occasionally). My only concern is with the game's balancing in general. It seems like the same strategy will work best each week (diplo overpowered). It would be cool if the game was more balanced and other strategies were viable.

I think everything is OP vs bots

So balancing game around players exploiting dumb bots seems short sighted to me

# warm burrow So balancing game around players exploiting dumb bots seems short sighted to me

Good point. The problems with diplo vs bots can be different versus multiplayer.

In Perfection, diplo is OP because of explorers and chained vision from embassies. You basically spawn shop until you get a turn where you are able to quickly get embassies in as many opponents as possible. This is similar to the issue with diplo in multiplayer in a large FFA, though instead of spawn shopping you just win/lose so its not much fun.

In weekly challenge it seems quick embassies may be decent but its more about cloaks and hitting cloaks as late as possible in each corner of the map. Which is true for late game perfection mode as well, but I don't see it being that relevant to multiplayer.

In multiplayer its more about the embassies being OP than the cloaks because human opponents have a better chance at sniffing out the cloaks. This thread from years ago touches on it: #1162398287219929108 message

warm burrow
#

Another important point here is that this gamemode is about getting the highest score, not about winning the game. Most of the times killing bots as slowly as possible is better than killing them immediately, so that they can build you additional monuments and make your score go higher at the end

#

I dont understand how can you balance whole game around weekly challenges

We had some server issues just now, and to put out the fire we put a cache on the weekly challenge highscores. That means two things: friends highscore is currently not working, and you might see old data in the highscore. It should update at least every two minutes.

you will need to have a strong grasp of bot mechanics to make the majority ally with you however (in higher difficulties)

Yeah you gotta spam the peace treaties lol. I found that a tribe won't accept until they are already fighting another tribe. Also I made a bunch of archers to keep some distance while attacking

And don't attack Vengir. Their swordsmen will tear you up lol

How do you stop the doomux?

earnest mortar
#

I'm still working on that 😅
The first game I was able to keep 2 catapults in the back that could hit the doomux, and then finish them off with defenders or whoever I had in the front.

But the game I just played, they got my first catapult and then they got more and more momentum building doomux. Also I couldn't get peace with Vengir until like round 17. They were hitting me the whole game... same with Quetzali to my northwest

upper iron
# late elm what’s optimal from this point to get at least 40k ._.

Troops are definitely good value for score if you can't upgrade your cities, but otherwise destroy markets and get temples if you can't upgrade the city anymore. A temple is the same value as a unit 1* for 5 score, but you can have both troops and temples, so try and maximize your stars in the best way.

karmic rivet
# barren sierra Yes. The bots get harder with each division

This is a huge bummer when playing with friends. As soon as we're out of sync league-wise the friend score board doesn't make any sense.

Nice to have confirmation though, we were comparing playbacks because the bots were being way nicer to the players in the bronze league.

Still, it be nice if there were someway to disable this - we might even prefer staying locked in a lower league if it at least it means we all get to play the same difficulty.

barren sierra
#

Good point about comparing scores with friends. If you are in different divisions, the same strategy won't work because the bots have different behavior

whole merlin
#

y'know what'd be a cool weekly challenge?
just city plain city building, no enemies, just spawn in the centre of the map and make the map difficult to navigate so that the skill part is in finding out the most optimal way to explore the whole map to expand your city

Would love to know the percentage of gold league accounts that are multis 🤔. Gold is something like 20% of all accounts but feels to be 1% of all players 😅.

Maybe Midjiwan should introduce the requirement of "must purchase at least one tribe" before weekly challenge unlocks. Doesn't stop multis, but at least Midjiwan would get money out of it 🤣

idk man I don't think very many people in gold have alts

I tried the Ultor opening in some variations and it got me nowhere. Has anyone tried a naval rush strategy? I did not try it bc eco will be slow but I’m curious how it would have worked with a strong player. For now I am happy I can at least camp another week in gold. 😥

If they want to try and get players to stop playing on alts they shouldn't limit people to one attempt per day honestly.

Perhaps but at a stretch. You can stumble across the money to buy one of the tribes on the floor, it's truly little in cost. It also doesn't prevent playing any other mode of the game.

I've only ever played on mobile, what I hadn't considered is other formats such as the switch... I assume you buy the game and have all tribes available and can share the game cartridge around. No mechanism to "buy" a tribe. So that wouldn't work.

its a phenomenal game mode, to the polytopia team: you could make bank selling daily resets of the weekly challenge. The first thing I think everyone wants to do after playing the challenge is replay it. Sell that for 0.99 and see your revenue grow

Last challenge you literally spawn next to Polaris, so fun. And you also have a barricade of Quetzali that doesn't let you get to Cymanti quickly. Cymanti is ASS to play against, they are literally a bomb that you have to deactivate unless you want it to take over the whole map. Meanwhile, the other tribes like Aquarion will spam sharks to fuck you over the moment you try to expand. It would be SO MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE if I could FUCKING MOVE.

I am on Android/Beta (no problems here) but my partner is Android/Standard, and is having the same issue, so it's not Apple. Has cleared cache etc. after restarting didn't fix. I just checked the Polytopia subreddit and saw people were having the same issue about a month ago. The challenge window opens for about a second and then it crashes and the play window is grayed out for the rest of the day with a hole instead of being filled.

Obvs I'm happy that I'm consistently beating him in my friends group but it doesn't feel as good that I'm not doing it fairly. So I guess I'm asking if there is a fix for it. Maybe closer to the end of the week?

There is no beta on Android currently? I know that isn't your question, but it struck me as weird when you led with that.

#

Besides that, it is a known issue and I don't know of any solution. Please let me know if you do find something that works. It's been posted repeatedly in #1021520425072734238, so you might also want to check there (now and in the future).

That is so interesting! You're right, when I compare our versions, we both have the same version, but I had been previously in the Beta version and he hadn't, so I thought that might have made a difference as to why I was successfully playing and he wasn't.

Okay so I scraped 12,965 by turtling with defenders, getting altar of peace and all the technologies and scubaing a couple of big cities south of me at the end, basically not playing any Aqua tactics at all, nearly got the northern Hoodrick city but a giant pop defence at the end cost me. Reckon with smarter star use and faster scubas I could get 18-20k with these tactics but I won't play again, should keep me in gold for another week anyway.

I like the weekly challenges, though I feel like I'm training an AI or bot engine. The same map is played 1000's of times by humans so there must be a way to train a machine how to handle various situations. I've learned a ton just by watching the replays and reading comments.

#

Each one of these weeklies are similar to a single level in a campaign mode story from AOE

It would be interesting if there was a campaign mode in poly:
Preexisting situations that can be tricky to overcome. At the same time, these levels can be used to support the tutorial or introduce plot and lore.

#

I like having a lot of bots games because people with more than one account have a hard time finding the best strategy because there are so many options that only players that know how bots play and how to properly play can hit the leaderboard; with fewer bots the options are way more stricted and it's easier to find the best strategy and perfectionate it and already once (the Ely game a few months ago) the win was stolen from me by a player with at least 4 accounts.

#

so, I don't know if this message will reach the midji team, but if it does, please make games with more bots to increase the skill level over who has more accounts

dusk raptor
#

I don't disagree with your logic, but I personally prefer the games with fewer bots. Now I'm not playing to win, just to at least stay in the same league, but I find the very crowded games difficult and less fun. I'm not trying to convince you, just pointing out that I wouldn't like to see only crowded maps.

Predicting a bot's priorities?

Wouldn't it depend on the difficulty of the bot or nah (because difficulty only changes relations and spt)

I don't understand why crazy bots sometimes spare units or refuse an open city despite having neutral relations

#

I also don't get why some tribes have irrational behaviours like... Xin Xi never hunting Xini Kai

I would like to do it, having a strong ai will make single player games fun again. Problem is that a integration later for AIs is missing so one need to rebuild the game to test and then the ai need to play using the mouse click that's not completely stable or easy

Its me, not using AI. I have played weekly challenge since day 1 and learnt a lot from top scorers each week 🙂 I usually spend 1-2 hours a day on weeklies, might be more if its a big map
