Leave a Review Catalyst Black
Game status unknown?
Looked like a promising game😒, with more then it’s fair share of bugs😱. Is this because of a lack of support or is the game going to be discontinued, like many rumors suggest🤔? Speaking of bugs, your game won’t let me start a match, the bug is in the load outs. I have the screenshots and would send them on discord, but it said I needed to upgrade to nitro edition after sending (2)many photos (which then said couldn’t do jack due to inactivity, what nonsense)😤. If you aren’t planning on discontinuing the game, then please for your players sake, fix it🤢. Don’t disregard your player community🥸. As devs, you brought us to where we are; we’re here to help you help us, that’s how this relationship works. Now, give us a reason to stay🖖. If you do plan to discontinue Catalyst Black😡, all I can say is it was fun while it lasted🤥, and no longer will I continue to play or buy anything from SEMC. 😭Show lessCode💥Red🚀

Has some fun modes where you can go for kills, some paying players have some OP killing power, but in the tanked game you can usually change playing style and go for capturing the fortress, or the collecting the crystals, or following a strong player on your team to support them with heals or extra firepower to turn the tide.
I was sceptical when I played some of the early testing, and just went back to playing SEMC’s Vainglory, as I missed the more intense gameplay.
I don’t feel I’ve been playing the game too long, but I am far above the top rank in Eventide, so hope higher rankings can be given! I remember the grind and feelings rewarded to get to vainglorious in their last game! I guess I miss the risk vs reward going into top level battles in the last game, where here if I loose a few matches, I don’t think I would ever drop below the top current rank. That said it is the nice balanced gameplay that is bringing me back and what also kept me playing Vainglory.Show lessSimon1112009

Perhaps I just needed to give it a second try…
I was definitely too critical on my initial review and let my blind anger control my thoughts without giving the game a chance. I expected vain at first but now I realize that this game was never trying to be vainglory. Catalyst Black is its own identity and should be played as such and I realize that now. Is the game perfect? No, but in time I can definitely see it becoming something of a symbol for mobile gaming. I’ll continue playing and waiting for what’s to come.Show lessMax Davis 🐋

Hello, Max. We share this passion for Vainglory, but we're hoping to expand our horizons with Catalyst Black! We hope we can continue to explore different paths with more creative freedom while always remembering our past experiences. And we will do our best to always deliver.Great game destroyed by pay to win monetization strategy
Let me start off by saying I really love ALMOST everything about this game.
It has great gameplay, with a good mix of skill, strategy, and playstyle choices.
The world, and art are great.
a wide rage of game modes all fun…
Seriously, is has everything going for it, and I tried so hard to love playing this game.
However… It pretty blatantly obvious it’s a pay to win game…
You use dust, and other currency to level up the equipment in your loadout which can DRASTICALLY increase your stats.
So much so that the skill I mentioned earlier is completely thrown out the door.
A complete greenhorn stands ZERO chance against a cash whale who juiced their stats to the max, even if he can’t hit the broad side of a barn…
I’m sure this game will do great is certain parts of the world, but not so much in NA…
Hope, they rework their monetization strategy in the future, would love to play again.Show lessMrMooglez

We will continue to work hard in order to make the best out of all the tools and amazing people who are working to create and innovate alongside us.Overall dope
Amazingly addicting, got a ton right. Would love to see a messaging feature for friends/party members but it’s a super simple and fun game to play. Need some sort of gameplay where all levels are capped so the matches are skill based, not wallet based. Overall sweet rendition/mix up of brawl stars, gears of war, and league of legends. Please fix the app fail/quit bug it’s annoying.Show lessCDwhynickname14
Half decent when it works

Thank you for the 5 stars and for all the support. We cannot do this without you. Keep on battling, Chosen, and we hope to see you on the battlefield soon!So many broken things
Fun game but many half measures in gameplay design. More like a promising beta. This game needs some work. Play types are unbalanced, which makes support or protectors mostly useless. Also, why put players in an Eventide match at Final Harvest? In most cases, the match is mostly decided by that point. If you do, it’s lame to have them lose points. In many cases it’s a blowout by that stage in the match.Show lessvidikulous
Simply a Awesome Game
Simple, Fast-paced, and Fun!
My only complaint is slightly pay to win people with money sunk into this game have OP weapons and soak whole teams worth of bullets, gaining ridiculous health and shield. If their were some balance changes that would prevent this it would make the game perfect.Gbga gnats
Chat
Hello game is fun but why there no chat interaction with other players I feel lonely if I want to ask someone I can’t because there is nobody unless a friend is only via voice or something like that and it’s really hard to get gold to buy chest it’s so little for every cheso that I win 20 or 50 how it will take me to save 1250 gold and after turning in to monster it dies so fast and take long to become one sometimes any way I hope it get some better improvements thank youShow lessOxigon
