    Just to clarify that you will only need 10 Shards to unlock a Racer under the new system, just like in the current system.
    Once you collect 10 Racer Shards, a Racer will be unlocked at Racer Upgrade Level 1. Those 10 Shards are then added to your Shard inventory. As stated in the article, in order to reach Racer Upgrade Level 10, you'll need to then spend 9 out of those 10 Shards along with 20,900 Upgrade Coins. Reaching Racer Upgrade Level 50 requires exactly 200 Racer Shards under both systems.

      They made everything upgrade item into upgrade coins to make it easier to run out of resources faster while upgrading for example if you run out of glove you can just go and upgrade a speedster instead you run out of upgrade coins you’re dead in the water this also makes it easier for paying players to out level in ranked multiplayer and if they take out duplicating shards it can make it hard to gauge how many shards you’ve spent and how many you you need left making the new way there doing season boxes more confusing

      Np! It's best to use them when they are separated rather than to wait for them to be combined.
      If a character is like 4 star level 20, I'd just leave it here. No need to stress.
      If it's like 3 levels off though, I think soft capping it is a good idea.

    I've been playing Speedstorm since the Aladdin season. I have most of the racers unlocked (the only ones I'm missing are Steamboat Pete, Stitch, Genie, Gaston, Ortensia, Wall-E, and Eve) and I've saved up a ton of upgrade materials from playing the Daily Boost challenge each day. I think that things that have really helped Speedstorm with upgrading specific racers are the Daily Boost Challenge (many of my racers have been upgraded because of it), and season boxes for specific racers in the Little Mermaid season. I'll have to see how the new simplified upgrade system compares to the old system when the new season begins.

    I wish they would just keep what we have. If its not broke, dont fix it.....
    The current way of progression is actually pretty fun. They are going to take all of the joy of using racers to get parts for different racers. Oh well, I believe everyone will just be at 40-50 by the end of next season with just a bout every character.

    I love the video! I'm actually quite surprised that you didn't dive deeper into the required shards + upgrade coins needed per transaction, as they do change (even within the same 10 level range) - for example, the items needed to go from level 25 to level 26.... Or even to go from level 40 to level 41

      @poppinoftenwithlofton6036  3 месяца назад +1

      I think it's 9+1 left over, then you use that extra to go to 10. With counting it did seem like you had an extra shard, however, I think it smooths out to not have it toward the end.
      I believe it's just one transaction to unlock the character. Then you're at level 10 with a bonus shard which will be used later.

    My Lvl 35 Jasmine will be rounded down to Lvl 30? Why? Just leave it alone and allow me to continue upgrading through the shards I have. They better compensate us with shards equal to the levels that were removed because I have a BUNCH of racers capped at 35 and 25, plus my recently unlocked and upgraded Jessie and Celia. Then again, I doubt they will do something that amazingly considerate.

      But again, I can't say for sure though so take that with a grain of salt. I just think it's the most obvious decision given the game isn't that technical to allow different accounts different type of special access to levels and stars.
      However, I do hope I'm wrong cause this will be some next level stuff. We do know GL knows people won't stop playing/paying no matter what they do so, again, hard to say it wouldn't happen.

    Taking away levels from people who earned them, or paid for the shards is criminal. We’re essentially losing by continuing to play this game. Every update takes more away from us and makes the experience lack luster. We got really cool star chaser events with nice rewards for 1 week. Then they brought us back to a shitty reward system with little too no shards and materials. The characters for the star chaser repeats and it’s never really characters we’d love to see an event for. If they take away levels from players that rightfully earned them I’ll be sick. It’s like a punishment for enjoying the game, collecting alot and doing well. Disney is like yea no not without giving us more money. I’ve never paid for a character and I’ve unlocked all but 4. I’ve started in the Aladdin season. I feel players like me who are just good and have obtained so much without paying for it were the targets. I have 2-4 star racers, majority at level 25 with only 4 characters missing from my roster. This update is to make people pay more in the end we’ll see that we run out of upgrade coins eventually that’s the plan. That’s why you can purchase them with tokens and not season coins like you can now to buy materials. They just streamlined a way to make people pay for upgrade coins with real money instead of the money we make from grinding the seasons.

    • @_LadyLondyn
      @_LadyLondyn 3 месяца назад +2

      Upgrading should be my choice. I have characters I unlocked still at level 1. And when they have an event something exciting, it’s fun to pick up a new racer and start working on them. Their own materials, stars, events yea it’s challenging but that’s the fun part. I grinded Hades this season to unlock Gaston. I earned those 5 shards that unlocked Gaston for me this season. I haven’t even played Gaston yet. The joy was unlocking him, earning him, even if it did take a few months. Once again I’m 4 characters missing and never paid to unlock a single racer. Taking levels from me would really piss me and I’m sure others off. They are regressing us to make us work all over again.

      Yes, I'm not sure, but I feel they will roll back levels. If they do roll you back, I think they will give the exact materials to reach the level again though.
      If a character is like 4 stars and you're level 20, I don't think it's worth soft capping. Only if they are close.

  • @Kage.Williams
    @Kage.Williams 3 месяца назад +1

    Im in a serious wait and see mode right now. There are various areas im truly trying to contemplate, with 1 being a major concern.
    1)(And this is the concern). Say my ariel is 5 star. I have 4 crew on her. However, her level is only 35. With this new update what happens to those crew slots? Does she suddenly just lose them? Drop to 3 star? Sure she'll still have her shards but that revert from 5 to 3...that's so harsh.
    (These next 2 are strategy things)
    2) In preparation for the new seasons changes do we now focus all racer boosts on level 40-50 characters as they have the highest level upgrade parts and thus the highest conversion rates?
    3) and lastly i hear people talking about grabbing all the upgrade part they can...but did the rank change not show us that the conversions almost always suck and what is replaced in the reward track in ranked is at times better than what we would have converted too? Should we consider just stopping all leveling and just getting the new coin rates instead?
    It was stated in the pit stop this is just 1 of the major changes. If this caused this level of shake up i cant wait to see what they have held off on and what else is in store!

    • @poppinoftenwithlofton6036
      @poppinoftenwithlofton6036  3 месяца назад

      Yes, all of what you're saying is valid. Unfortunately I don't have the information so I don't want to speak outside of term.
      When I make content I always make sure I have some sort of fact to back up, so we'll have to just wait and see.
      I do think if you're not on soft cap you will lose levels until you're at the correct shard ratio. You will get refunded coins for the regression, but you'll have to level up again to reach the star level.
      Just my take.

    • @CosmicStardust2025
      @CosmicStardust2025 3 месяца назад

      In skylinerproduction's video it is theorized that those who had star up to a 5 star but not maxed out their level shouldn't be affected. It would be too much of a hassle if the system tried to take away the star ups.
      So my guess is that they probably would keep the stars from the old system but indeed refund the shards to that specific character so they can be able to upgrade them still. If it wasn't that theory, then it can cause a huge outrage if they weren't refunded the shards from any 5☆ racer not maxed out yet.

  • @michaelmayhem350
    @michaelmayhem350 3 месяца назад

    Gameloft community manager specifically said if you like to play lots of characters you should level them up as much as possible BEFORE the patch and if you only focus on 1 or 2 racers you're better off waiting until after the change.
    This strongly implies the conversion rate is gonna be fucking terrible. I'm glad they're simplifying the game but it's sad gameloft chose to screw the players again.

  • @walonsubi
    @walonsubi 3 месяца назад

    In theory, this is good. There are loads of different upgrade materials for each Collection, then unique ones to each character. Some of these you can earn just by playing, some you can't. As new Collections are added, this is only going to get larger and more complicated. Paring that down into one material for everyone makes it easier to manage, easier to sell and easier for players to upgrade who they want to upgrade.
    As far as I can see the only issue with this is how stingy (or otherwise) they're going to be in handing out these coins from events. With 48 characters unlocked and all bar one at level 25 at least, I have ~4000 red and blue cans left over. Would I still have that from playing under the new system? I guess we wait.
    I really think this change could make or break the game. If it stops the feeling of being unable to upgrade a racer past a certain point if you just have to spend time playing, great. If it takes so long to be able to upgrade that you feel like you're never going to make any progress... well, it's been fun.

    I like the current system, having each collection with it's own materials. I have no issues because we have racer boost to get them.

      I do think the transition will be smoother if they have good conversion rates as well as an excess source of coins. (at least at the start of the switch and for newer players down the road)

    Hey Poppin, you are incorrect about not losing stars.
    If you are a lvl 35 5* you will be forced down to a lvl 35 3* losing not only your stars, but also 2 crew slots.
    What Gameloft says is that your shards won't be taken away, not your stars. You will then need to pay this mythical currency to crawl your way up to 4* at lvl 40 and you won't have access to your 4th crew slot until your character is lvl 50.

      The new system locks shards and levels together. If you have a level 35 5* character, you will either have to have it converted to a lvl 50 5* or a lvl 35 3*.
      A.J. said further in the discord, when explaining the situation, you wouldn't lose shards, you just wouldn't need to collect more shards. You will still have the shards, they just won't become effective until you pay the mythical currency to lvl up your character.
      It seems to be something like this:
      0-9:......0* 0 crew
      10-19...1* (0 - 1) crew
      20-29...2* 1 crew
      30-39...3* 2 crew
      40-49...4* 3 crew
      50........5* 4 crew
      It would seem Gameloft is trying very hard to avoid framing things by way of what players will lose.
      But it seems it is impossible in the new system to disconnect Level and Star Status. You cannot be, in the new system, a lvl 25 5* you can only be a lvl 25 2*. Players will not be losing their shards, but they will become ineffective until paired with the appropriate number of mythical upgrade currency.
      A.J. did tell me that he would be getting updates on crew slots, and that will be the determining factor. If players lose crew slots, they lose stars.

      @remmingtonsteele2287 Yes, I said that in my video haha. That's why I said to level to the new system soft cap. 🙂

      ​​​@@remmingtonsteele2287GL said you will not lose progression so it is my understanding at this time no stars or levels you have will be lost. Stars is a part of racer progression so i dont think that your existing stars will be affected. Its possible that they might grandfather in existing progress to sone degree. Saying otherwise at this point without information to support that is speculation so i think its better to wait and see

      thats what i say and think. GL didnt gift us free levels if we have already 5*. They steal our *, giving our shards back and now we need the new currency or pay again money, because as they say, if you have the shards but not the currency you can use tokens. So we can hold our level, but loose our stars with there power. So we become a nerf and a new p2w-system... The convert-rate for the ressources, you can forget about it. Yes unuseable stuff goes now usable but look how much the convert is for duplicate shards or gold season coins to blue tokens... If you have overall 10k energies and other stuff you become only maybe 1000 new coins... You never get the real amount of its value... As a example, you need 120 energies and so to level up from 1 to 25, you never get for those ressources the 122k on coins... If you understand what i mean
