Get ready for a massive yap session. Here's what I really want the team to fix as soon as possible because some of these issues are becoming incredibly frustrating.
1. New Brawlers shouldn't be added to the Starr Road 16 days after their Early Access event ends.
It's such a strange design choice, and I've honestly never seen another game do anything like this. If someone misses the chance to play the Early Access, they're forced to wait another 16 days just because the Brawler literally isn't available anywhere. Maybe they were even willing to spend money to unlock them. It just feels really weird.
2. Small neglected issues pile up over time and eventually become one big problem, so let's start getting rid of some of them.
- Raise the Club trophy requirement cap beyond 100k. It's already been two updates since Prestige was introduced. I think it's time to consider adding higher trophy requirement options for Clubs because I don't really see why they still don't exist.
- Mega Pig rework. I've already talked about this in another post. In short, my idea is to make it work more like Mega Buffet, where you instantly claim rewards as you earn them, while also refreshing the reward pool every month with different rewards.. maybe even a free Skin from that update. We need something like this because right now the game barely encourages players to be social, even though Brawl Stars is fundamentally built around playing with others. More engaging Club events would naturally encourage players to organize sessions and play together.
- More Pin slots, or even a Pin Wheel system. I don't think I need to explain this anymore. There are thousands of Pins in the game, yet I can only use five per match, and realistically only two of them actually matter.
- More transparent communication. I really want to know what's going on with the servers. Ranked is almost impossible to play right now because you risk getting timed out simply because the servers fail to lock in the Brawler you selected during Draft, making the game think you dodged the match. On top of that, sometimes it takes me several minutes just to open a Daily Wins gacha reward. It's exhausting. I understand that fixing server issues isn't something that happens overnight, but a few words from the team on social media would go a long way.
- Replace the WebView interfaces. Ever since the Sirius Business event, where you could unlock Sirius for free by winning with every Brawler, the team has been relying on a WebView system that allows them to build interfaces much faster. I understand why they're doing it, it saves development time, but these interfaces feel... really cheap. Every time I've had to use one, it's been buggy, slow, and often doesn't even respond properly. The real issue isn't the webviews themselves. I can accept them for Community Events because those interfaces disappear after the event ends. It doesn't make sense to spend months building a native interface for something temporary that's mostly tied to social media.
The problem started when they introduced WebView into permanent parts of the game. I'm talking about the Friends List. I genuinely don't understand why they chose to move such a fundamental part of the game to webview when it barely works properly. Almost every time I open it, either some of my friends don't appear, none of them load at all, or their profiles refuse to load. It's incredibly frustrating and once again makes the overall experience feel unnecessarily exhausting. Bugs happen in every game, but at this point it genuinely feels like neglect, and I really hope that's not the case because the devs have shown many times before that they truly care about Brawl Stars. This is entirely in their hands.. they either need to make that interface work properly or stop using WebView for permanent features altogether.
Not even Twitter Premium can handle everything I have to say, so here's a thread. 🧶
