Am I the only one experiencing extreme lag/wait times?


I am too. Switching to the old map seems to help a little.

Hah!



I see it also helps if you know where you made a secret super-spawn area :)

The spawning of this event sucks. The only reason the players got so many kills last time was because of the small rooms. We will not see any where near the numbers as last time. Bildor spent what 2 days to get the 80k kills i guaranty it was in a small room 3x3

It took me roughly 12 hours straight to get 32k kills and i used a 3x3 room. With the spawn rate now i wont even come close or will i even try. 12hr is the maximum amount of time i give you :).

These guys hit it right on the head here, I bet it takes two stamina to kill one of these creatures now (which would be an excruciatingly painstaking experience). Without any better suggestions or ideas at the moment, I think the small rooms need to be reopened. What is supposed to be an all-inclusive community event is a handicap to the majority of FS players. I think that the entire spawn system needs to be changed and the kill requirement needs to be compromised.


That being said I think you guys are doing a great job with these global events and I'm sure you'll roughen out the edges in the future :wink:

so maybe it's just me.. but 1,500 kills seems a bit much considering these are worthless mobs.. it would be nice if they were level appropriate and actually gave XP and gold.. really.. is it supposed to be fun having to comb the same maps over and over for the 1-2 kills per space?

The only problem I have with special info in the dev chat is that they are always scheduled for when I am at work, can you move the times around a bit?

So ... sacrifice 400! If I use it when distil is active, does that mean I have to pay the monsters for the privilege of killing them? :lol: :mrgreen:

What you got to remember is that HCS is in Scotland so their 'normal' working day is server time so uunless they wanna go into work at 04:00 or something like that its hard to cater for everyone

for the record.. removing the thumbs down vote is pretty weak.. it's a sign you don't really care about what the players think or feel..

1500 kills is perfect 10 mil over all is even better but the spawn rate needs to change. im not willing to put in hours upon hours killing only a cpl thousand critters

This. There is no challenge or reward. If they dropped recipes and resources like before it would at least be interesting.

As far as I see.. the last even we barely broke tier 2.. and that's after they had dropped the kills to 250.. and extended the event a few days (beyond 4 days)..

so 1500 and 10 mil seems much.. I agree the spawn rate could be higher at the very least.. it's becoming a chore to move 2-3 spaces for 1-2 kills..

2 hours passed 4 days. The min kill is fine. As are the tiers. Just have to make getting the kills easier or the want to get the kills greater. Removing the quest/elite only realms is making the agony of racking up kills even worse. Couple that with an almost identical potion for leveling from the 1st event and you might see the numbers dwindle further. Especially after the top 100 from the last event already have their stam waster medal.

Had to go to 6 different maps to find one that had dragons....and these were regular hunting maps, NOT elite areas. :( The spawn rate is terrible, the qualifying kills is way too high, the mobs drop nothing, and for many people, I believe boredom will kick in way before the 1500 is reached. Open the small maps again if you want people to kill so many!!!! Otherwise, lower the qualifying amount. I've only killed 45 and am already bored beyond belief.... and wasted a ton of stam that I could be saving for leveling. .... plus, the prize isn't all that great. Was really expecting something a lot better.
