Started playing GI Joe Battlegrounds the day before yesterday. Heres my first impressions. Unlike TFL it has more "gameplay elements". You collect cards which turn into papercraft action figures. Each figure has skills which are like special attacks in battle. The upgrade system is a little strange though. When you use guys to upgrade it raises your characters battle skills lvls not the xp they have. Then to make them better you have to have another version of them maxed out to give them more stars(better version). So far I havent spent any money and I have gotten a good amount of rare and epic cards(epics are the tier above rare). Havent played in a event yet so dont know what thats like. Overall it seems to have more going on then transformers and the grind in the game actually makes you feel like your getting somewhere. The cards dont feel like they are going to lost their value quite as fast as TFL which is a really good thing. Also you can pick and choose a whole lot more on who your allies are. If anyone is interested in playing with me use my invite code please you will get a storm shadow rare card.
