You play against bots until you hit account level 5, which should be your first ~5-6 matches. If a player disconnects, then the AI will take over until they reconnect (if they even try).
Thanks, that makes a lot more sense! I'm actually level 7 now so at least I won some games against real people, even if we're all bad! This game feels refreshing compared to the competition. I was stunned at how many people play it, seems very healthy in terms of player base size.

Yeah, Paladins isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Hmm not sure I like that lol

It's a great thing. Defense is intentionally made easier. It really allows a team that loses the first point a way to bounce back into the game. When you win first point the advantage is a credit advantage (you get like 300 bonus credit) and the ability to really snowball if they win offense. Hard to explain sufficiently on mobile atm.

I see what you're saying. It does make the matches closer. I didn't realize there was a credit bonus for wining the first point. That's cool. Guess I'm to use to how OW works. Thanks for the explanation.

Yeah, there's no level cap anymore and really all you're getting by doing this is faster access to cosmetics (that you still have to purchase -.-) and the character title.

Like, I spent 400k on Moji just to get her "And Friends" title, because why the hell not?

You never know with this game. I've been in it since early early closed beta and currencies change uses all the time lol. But maybe they'll be sticking with this system for good I guess since it's release.

Do we have a discord? I really need more people to play with. Got a huge friends list and over the years people stopped playing except for a few guys who I know are so good at the game I don't even want to bother them lol

I think several people have asked for one here. It seems like there is enough interest. Does someone want to take on creating one?

Looks like the Paladins Switch release thread closed to try to migrate people into the main OT!

If anyone is interested in grouping up or maybe getting a small community together for the switch version, I made a discord to talk to and maybe set up some parties the lack of ingame communication and lack of messages on Switch makes it a little difficult to coordinate so if anyone would like to join the discord it is: https://discord.gg/f4AwQRg

It's very barebones at the moment but good place to chat about Paladins and share friends codes and maybe organize some partying up as too make use of that group bonus and maybe tackle ranked! I just unlocked it and would like to group with some like minded people who want to have fun and do objectives not necessary to be super skilled just do teamwork!

Hope to see some people there!

Actually looks like there is already one!

Yeah mount looks solid. I might get the battle pass, but I'll need to find some peeps to play with regularly again otherwise it'll probably just be a waste for me.

I see that they changed BP remaining days from 12 to 6, so 1.3 is really coming next week. That's for PC and PS4 tho.
I think that they said July 25 for Switch/XB1.

They... Increased the price of the pass?

But.. Why?

Oh wow, FeyRazzle's getting a voice pack? In for that I guess.

Koga sounds OP as fuck, another broke ass Maeve type that makes shields useless.

I really liked everything about 1.3, but BP2 price increase is really lame decision. I mean ok they will add few more items but increasing the price is just not ok, but i had a feeling that they will do it.

I am also not a fan of character specific challenges, simply because there are many ppl that don't have all of them unlocked and i just don't want to play characters i don't like and i am not good with.

Skins while looking nice are for the characters i don't care about. Ok i pick Cassie from time to time but not the other two. Also both Makoa and Cassie have plenty of skins to chose from while some characters have only one extra or none. I feel like they are really not balancing this at all. Some characters keep getting cosmetic items all the time, while some are totally forgotten, which is not ok.

They also increased the amount of currency you can earn back by like 100 I think. Not sure cause I don't even know what you earn in the current battle pass.

I probably shouldn't have bought the tyra skin I did like 2 days ago. 400 gems.

I did that because I was so tired of grinding out Divine Seris. Now I gotta drop another $7.99, and probably wait a week for the crystal login to get the new pass.

There was really nice deal few weeks ago for 4.99, Ruckus skin, few chests and 200 crystals i think. And another one with mount, few chests and 400 crystals for 7.99. But i guess you already got that?
