maintaining eoc players is just as important as maintaining new players

 

daily quests maintain new and old players

 

daily events would maintain older players 

 

daily quests easy rewards for easy tasks

 

daily events great rewards for hard tasks and big comittment and investment

 

 

i'd rather have the small stam bank players not participate in the events so they can upgrade and build up their character so that they can effectively participate in the events rather than rushing them into events where they stand no chance

 

If the rewards of the dailies are chosen well, newbies can build up by doing them, that is the whole point.

But I guess your last remark proves my point. You want an unfair system for the elite, where I like to see something for all of us, but especially something that motivates new players to stick around. If you cannot see that is the biggest issue in this game, then there is no point in discussing this further between the two of us.

 

But going further on fairness, an EOC player with 40K stam, does also not stand a chance against an EOC player with 80K stam. And again, also in this case, it just takes a few to dominate the others. Daily events in a concept are great, but not if it cannot be made fair for all.

I dont mean to be overly negative here, but the majority of levellers only want to use "their" stamina to gain xp and gold. requiring people to use stamina will while "generating" more activity also generate less GAME play as a result of using their stamina which  makes using Stamina self defeating for these dailies.

 

The evidence is that there are plenty of things to do in this game but people choose not to play it isn't that the real issue that needs fixing here?

The only thing I am not, in this game, is  a player that takes part in the areas of the game where I need to hit other players. (except I do a gvg if I have a target and the stam. I had just hunted before the last one  started. :/)

 

I play all other aspects: Level, quest, titan hunt and have spent time on a relic.  I might do the events, but I would pick through them to find the right ones for me.

So you level quest and titan hunt do you hunt your own elites do you hunt Super elites  do you scavenge do you play arena or do these get missed as well?

events are tournaments daily quests are simple and doable by everybody

 

i'd say events are for those who do not know what to spend their stam on

 

for example i'm currently not leveling titan hunting or spending my stam on anything at all

 

i assume that i am not alone in this

 

would be nice to show on some sort of leaderboard how good i am at something in a daily event/tournament

 

these events can also be guild daily events such as most group kills or most kills as a group

 

yes obviously those with larger stam banks get a better shot but they also denied the most progress by dumping their stam into the event rather than level or titan hunt.

 

see it as another activity

 

you can go pvp/gvg/titan hunt/level/ hunt super elites/ look for chests/ participate in the ladder/ or participate in daily events

 

to spend ur stam on

 

and well if the new daily events are fun/interesting due to rewards and would keep those like me who just log in to chat and hang around something to do :P

 

the daily quests are for everybody

 

as in spend 30 minutes - 1 hour on the game spend some minor stamina and get some nice goodies.

 

the events are for those who have no idea what to spend their stamina on and want to challenge themselves to compete with others in a tournament.

 

 

and unfair systems?

 

titan hunting either ur fast enough to compete for first place/ get lucky or slowly nudge in kills to get the item you desire.

 

leveling a cute little newbie with little to no funds to get some sweet pots to a newbie who drops into a massive guild and gets tossed all the goodies towards him.

 

we're not all kids

 

we don't all want the golden medal for competing we just want the golden medal if we rank first

 

and yes if some1 with a massive stam bank who spent hours and hours of time playing the game would get first place wouldn't that only be fair?

 

the best and those who invested the most and have the best tactics win.

 

stam banks mean nothing if it's a pvp event it just requires good skill lots of dedication to win

 

stam banks mean nothing with the current conserve pots and if it's for example a super elite hunting event or a titan huntign event since these have cooldowns.

 

it's not like we're going to hunt common critters every time. and yes in case we get one of these events then yes it would be nothing but normal that the massive stam banks win that.

 

 

we can't always be a winner.

 

and yes i want a system for the elite just to flush out the very best of their respective aspects of the game.

 

someone who never did titan hunting can't expect to rank high in a titan hunting event

 

someone with no experience in pvp can't expect to rank high in a pvp event

 

etc etc.

 

if you read hoof his concept it would be a tournament system

 

if ur not the best then would it be unfair that you don't rank first?

 

you've never played chess and you go play in a tournament against grandmasters and expect it to be fair?

 

i mean gaming is competetive not feeding you goodies with the wooden spoon you gotta work for it

 

people forgot that with the latest uber pots i mean i can go nobrainer regarding gear where i once had to look up what gear i had to wear to get an effective hunt in.

Now that is true. But then again, you do not need  a large group of players with a lot of stamina to dominate against those that have just 500-2000 stamina. It will be very interesting to see how that will be solved. 
This gives EOC players a chance to burn their stamina while waiting which in one way is good, but the counter effect is that the smaller players (with less max stam) won't bother. And that would be the big loss in this whole system. 
It are the new players you need to tie to the game.


As crip previously stated, all of us need to be tied to the game, from the player that just signed up 15 minutes ago to those of us who have been around since before anybody had hit 200 yet. The player base is steadily dwindling, from thousands online at any given time to less than 500 on the average. Some have gotten bored and moved on to other more graphics based games with autopilot and bells and whistles. Others became daunted by the endless pursuit of EOC, and still others left in disgust because of other issues.

Daily quests don't have to be dependent upon who has more stam to burn. They need to be based on x number of tasks, anyway, not xp gained or titans killed, just completing the assigned list. They don't need to be complicated.


Events are a different story. They SHOULD be competitive. But still, maybe they should be tiered by level ranges just like the ladder and most forms of PvP.


Also keep in mind, somebody with 80k+ max stam has to wait ages for that stam to fill. Having a daily task has them logging in more than once a month, which keeps them from wandering off to something else they can actually play every day, if they so choose.

And I'm sure there will be nice incentives for the newer player to return tomorrow. At least they will have full stam again ;)

To answer the other questions that came up:

 

Yes, I tried the caves, need more gold.

 

Yes, I hunt my own elites.

 

Yes, I can kill some SEs,  others kill me. They are hell on my kill streak.

 

If I live long enough and reach EOC maybe I'll hunt more.  That's a very big IF at this time.

Oh, and it would really be nice if people could be more positive about things. 

 

This place has a toxic feel that's a real downer.

 

I'll see what they come up and cherry pick for me, just as others will.

 

Happy gaming and cheers.

When the "food" is going off, is it any wonder that customers start getting sick ?


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...
