Smite - State of the Subreddit-June 2017


State of the Subreddit-June 2017

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 06:47 PM PDT

First off we want to thank everyone for an amazing 100k Celebration and we look forward to the next 100k subscribers! This subreddit is driven by the community and we love helping and giving stuff to you guys! We are just going to go over a few things and ask for some feedback if you so desire.

Rule Enforcement

Recently there has been a bunch of posts that break some of /r/Smite's rules. Most of them are innocuous and we simply remove the thread and may inform the user what rule was broken and provide an alternative. It is very rare that we have people blatantly break the NSFW rule or severe harassment and we thank you for that. Here is a list of some of the most common rules we enforce and what alternatives there are.

  • Don't Be a Dick- There is no alternative, stop being a dick.
  • Posting of Memes- /r/Gank is a subreddit dedicated to all Smite Memes, if you find something fun or create it post it over there
  • Looking for Clan/Teammates/Scrims- /r/SmiteLFM is a subreddit that helps you find people to play with. You can also join our discord and use one of the 3 available Looking For Group channels to find people to play with
  • Bug Reports- Smite's Official Bug Report Forums If you have a bug you may report it there or on the Megathread we have after each new patch is released.
  • Ignoring Top Bar Notification- Occasionally something happens like Patch Notes or the Community Skin contests so we ask people to use a stickied megathread to prevent the subreddit being flooded by what is more or less the same posts and discussions.
  • First to post get's the updoots- Sometimes we get people posting duplicate stuff like twitch highlights of a cool/funny moment or a twitter announcement of some sort. The first person to post such a thing will stay up while the duplicates will be removed. Gotta be quicker than that

Recurring Threads

  • Class Discussion- We currently have a weekly Class Discussion thread that rotates through all 5 classes. We use these so people can discuss their favorite gods and goddesses.
  • Patch Notes- While the patch notes are live we usually try to lock all new posts and make one megathread so we can discuss the content live and prevent a flood of posts discussing all the awesome new information, we remove all posts discussing the new content for approximately 24 hours.
  • Patch Day Discussion/Bug Report Megathreads- Whenever a patch is released on PC or Consoles we make a Patch Day thread that also serves as a central megathread for all bug reports. HiRez does look at these but your best bet is to use their official bug report forums.
  • Megathreads for Events- Events like the Odyssey Community Skin. We create a megathread to aggregate all of the discussion and ideas.

Discord

Official /r/Smite Discord
We have a thriving discord with over 7,000 users! You may join and discuss Smite in the main channel or use the off-topic channel discuss pretty much anything you want as long as it is Safe For Work and follows our rules. You can also look for people to play with in the Looking for Group channels. Come join us, we've got funny emotes :victory:

Feedback Form

We would love to hear from you guys and you can either post here or use this feedback form to send us information privately. If you have any ideas for ways we can improve the subreddit we will take it into consideration.

The map designer of the aventure SHOULD work on the new conquest map !

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 12:54 PM PDT

Even if the aventures are not really liked by the players (the last one is an exception), i think that the maps were actually amazing. They could have used an existing map for each event but the maps that they created were pretty good and well designed, especially for the CTF mode and the last aventure.

The jungle is really good in the last aventure ! it's less boring than the current one and has way more personnality. A mix between that jungle and the general theme of the map of s1 could be awesome and would make the map more serious in general.

I only hope that the paths will be less open to make the wards less effective and to make the jungle more stressful.

HiRez has now shown it has the tech to create Health and Mana drops, should they add something similar to Assault?

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 10:57 AM PDT

One of the issues plaguing assault is that you are basically required to have 4 Salvations at the start of the match to stand a chance. The health and mana regen from them is just far too valuable. What if they added in these health/mana potions and made them so they do not heal the entire team. This already exists in League of Legends Assault style map called ARAM and I think they are super helpful. It provides a way for the team to sustain health and mana without requiring them to invest heavily into it.

Quality of Ranked games

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 04:24 PM PDT

Have been playing a lot of ranked this split, and it seems that the games are lower quality than casual games. Consistently have players who have no idea what they are doing, can't play their role, run strats that don't work (like support odin with no starter, silver breastplate and mana potions only???) and are just plain awful. Like, at conquest. They don't just build wrong, I had a sylvanus today who sat in duo for the entire 34 minutes of the game. Never left duo lane once. Why are there so many of these people in ranked?

Meanwhile, I hop in a casual game, and everyone knows what they are doing, and at least 3/4 people on my team know how to play their roles. I have way more competitive and enjoyable games in casuals, than in ranked. Anyone else noticing this/know why this is? Thanks.

Ranked Feels Like Gambling

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 11:30 AM PDT

For the third time this season, I have been 2 tp away from being promoted to a higher league, only to lose 4 straight games. I swear I go on these runs and things are feeling great and all of a sudden, I lose everything only to be back where I started... or worse. It seriously feels like I'm gambling, and the house is always going to win no matter how I play. I say this because it's not like i suck and lose most of my games. No I win more than half of them. It's just that the loses come at the WORST time and in succession of each other. Why does ranked operate on runs and successive victories/defeats? How come I win a game and get queued with plat players (I'm in gold) then I lose one and I'm put with silvers? Why is MM so conditional on my last match? Never mind the snowballing, that's another issue. It's the feeling that I'm playing a rigged game... it's put me off from playing ranked, and I think other players are feeling it too. Am I wrong?

Reminder: Don't give someone a hard time just because they played badly; Be helpful!

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 07:54 PM PDT

Everyone has bad games/days where things just don't go well. That doesn't mean you should bm them or give them crap about it. Instead, try to help them be better by giving tips or suggestions. If they decide to act rude when you are just trying to help, then there is really nothing you can do about it.

The reason I made this post is that Smite has just been full of toxicity and hate recently. Just about every player I've played with/against recently has been toxic or rude for no reason.

This is just reminder saying that the other players of this game are actual people and you should treat them with respect and kindness if at all possible. Thanks.

Smite story mode

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 02:39 AM PDT

Instead of repeatedly making new adventures maybe HiRez could take what they've learned from the most recent adventure and use it as a base to start developing a Smite story mode. They could even release it gradually in chunks like current adventures.

Not sure if this has already been suggested but i feel it'd really add some more character development to smite and make some gods more lovable.

Smite down for PS4?

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 12:35 PM PDT

Haven't been able to get game for the past 20 minutes or so. The game would freeze and after God select and wouldn't load up a match and now I can't even log in. Anyone else having similar experiences?

Favorite Gods Tab?

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 11:03 AM PDT

I'm sure this has b een asked before, but why can't they set it up so we can favorite gods and have them in a separate tab? Maybe this is available on PC, but it's not on console. Given a choice there are certain gods I will never play, so why should I even have them appear? Not only that,. but as the guy who almost always plays fill (re: support) I sometimes have very limited time to pick my god. Having my 10-12 favorites would be easier to get through than the full pool.

Am I nuts?

Proposed Adventures expansions for Trials of Hercules

Posted: 04 Jun 2017 03:46 AM PDT

A lot of us have been saying it, keep this game mode, expand it, add more content instead of replacing it with a different Adventure later on, that this should be a permanent game mode. And I agree, but instead of asking for more, let's offer ideas for what those expansions could be. Because hey, if we do some of the work, maybe it'll convince HiRez to keep the game mode.

  • Seasonal pantheon dungeons. When adding expansions to the Trials, how about choosing a pantheon to model the maps and monsters after? The current one is obviously Greek/Roman, but how about a Mayan jungle dungeon? A giant Egyptian pyramid? If you release 3-4 pantheon specific dungeons per season, that's new content for years.

  • Use gods as bosses. Similar to some of the fights in Xing Tian's Mountain, use the gods as boss challenges, with larger character models. Maybe use the gods banned from the mode so they feel more significant. They could have special dungeons based on their lore. Imagine fighting to the center of a pyramid and finding a giant Osiris waiting for you.

  • Use retired mobs. No reason for old models to go to waste, why not use them in Trials and save some work?
