That's the Sqenix? No, it's not fun; tap anywhere to "play".

Anyone have a working Battle Champs apk?

Announcement next week! Hype.
Very nice. I'll easily give up soccer spirits for this if it's decent.
Awesome! I just deleted Monster Strike after about a month of one again off again play. With that and if GBF actually releases English patch, I'll be a happy camper!
Also in other gacha news, I FINALLY pulled my first legend on One Piece, INT Mihawk! He's already evolved and at level 75, doing pretty great damage. Just need the regular Mihawk raid to return for some sockets!
Not sure if i posted it yet, but the dev created a little wiki with new screenshots, explanations on game mechanics etc.
They didn't showed it on their Facebook site because it isn't in a state of "publish to the community" yet.

So, Drift Spirits shuts down this month in the US. The other day I made an account for the JP app store, and it's #1 in their racing section. Damn you america.
Also, Professional Baseball Spirits Ace is a pretty cool baseball game that's got a gatcha aspect to it, and the parts you actually play are just scenarios during a game, rather than an entire game. Perfect for short sessions. I still don't know all the menu options, but I can play and I can let the game optimize my team after I get new players, so it's ok with me. I wonder if they'll do an MLB equivalent for the US?

I wish companies would give better names to these games. Grand Summoners? Really?
It could be fun. As long as Gumi isn't involved in any way, I'll give it a try.

rerolling for that in the japanese version is such a draggggggg
The gatcha games just keep on coming!
Edit: I just watched gameplay videos, the battles look like a flash game.
Looks decent actually.

Welp Android N developer preview is (as expected) hit or miss on some games.
As for me:
FFRK: good
Granblue: good
Terra Battle: crash on title screen
BC/Little Noah: stuck on white screen after loading

SanSuma started a collab with Senran Kagura today; time for everyone to jump in.

That's interesting, I hope it'll be good and not a cash-in lol.
I remember the Shokugeki no Soma mobage and it was kinda bad, pretty sad to have a franchise you like with such an mediocre game.

Didn't get accepted in the beta, RIP
"Clear within four or less" is what Google translate tells me.

Ah, okay. I guess I'd have to one-shot every turn. Not quite that powered up yet, heh.
Thanks!

Got into Shadowverse beta
A mobage shmup Metal Senki released today, seemed interesting but I don't know how much time i'll be able to devote to it.

Probably hoping to eat into Summoners War's success from confused people that can't tell the difference in title, or assume it to be a sequel.
"Shadowverse Beta Slot Winner!"
thx, nrgs looks like i was really unlucky. re-entered with two more adresses, believe!
also i guess everyone made himself selve invite for the bonus pack, maybe someone got picked twice?
I got into the Shadowverse beta as well, but, as someone who knows very little about it other than just being a Hearthstone clone with anime elements, what's so exciting about this game? What sets it apart from Hearthstone and other mobile TCGs?
I'm very open-minded and hopeful that I'll find it to be an enjoyable experience, but is there more to it than what I'm taking in at face value?
Thanks!

Let me quote the internet and the requirements for a game to be mentioned in this thread.
it really isn't more than a hearthstone clone in an anime-esk garment

Well it's also actually a card game ("actually"), which stands in stark contrast to pretty much every mobage that has "cards" in it. It's also pretty rare for a mobage to do near-simultaneous development with regions outside of Japan.
Is this some kind of GBF clone? Look like one to me.
From what I can see, it's an expanded/all-ages version of DMM's other title "Dragon Providence" (NSFW). At least, it shares some of the same characters, as well as design of the cards themselves.
Edit: Shadowverse is supposed to be starting their closed beta in a few hours, but no beta key has been received for me.
Did anyone receive theirs yet?
Edit #2: Never mind, installed it!
BTW, you need to open the mail and the "Start Testing" on your phone with Test Flight installed. It took me a bit to realize that. >_<

Got mine, mail was received about 20 min ago. Installing now!
EDIT: under maintenance until 11pm. Doesn't say timezone but I assume Pacific
Yeah, another 38 minutes until maintenance ends. Not long, thankfully.
I'm not sure which deck to go with. I know this is closed beta, and as such I doubt our progress will carry over into the actual game, but I'm still debating. I might just go with whoever's cutest (I'm thinking the purple-haired lady).
Also, I'm playing Cinderella Girls, to unlock the Granblue Fantasy characters...but how do you rank up!? I have no idea what I'm doing. :/
Played through the tutorial, and it almost put me to sleep. I don't know why, but that forest backdrop theme and UI were both grating to my eyes. Definitely makes me appreciate the simpler look of the Hearthstone table.
I'll keep powering through the practice fights and whatnot to get a better feel overall, but I really wish they did a little bit more to set this game apart from Hearthstone.

Wasn't too impressed by the tutorial (or by the quality of the localization - is this what we should expect for Granblue?), but maybe one of the practice decks will grab me.
Yeah, Shadowverse so far is...fine...I guess? I haven't played that much of it, and it is pretty much a direct copy of Hearthstone (I haven't played the latter, but I have watched others). I was surprised to see no in-game purchase items, unless it's going to be added later. That's entirely possible. Right now, you can purchase card packs with gold (which seems to be pretty plentiful) as well as crystals (not sure how I get those), in addition to using card pack tickets. I'm just randomly grabbing cards to see what I can put together later.
I'm assuming our closed beta progress won't carry over into the final build? If so, I won't bother constructing an actual deck and just use the practice ones.

Many who understand Japanese approved the quality of granblue translation. Can't say about shadowverse.

The production value is still pretty good for a mobile card game, but the UI isn't that great.
Better to stick with Hearthstone for the usual Blizzard polish.
Valiant Force seems to have been delayed for much later this year.
I know some GAFers were waiting for it.
