#929558 Shadow Bunny Showdown & Springtime Forest

Posted by Undjuvion on 22 April 2015 - 22:15

 

Or, folk could just see it as a nice gesture from BG because we slaughtered the total requirement for this Global Event.

 

It was indeed a very nice gesture from BG, but it was administered unevenly.  In the past it has always been given across the board.  If you're going to change from a precedent then people should be told.

 

Bottom line, some you win, some you lose..

 

Remember the fubar where Forn refilled everyones stamina ? - some players got 100K+ free stamina from that, others got little to nothing. Some won, some lost.

 

Are you really equating an accident which would have required reverting back to the last backup of the game, and lost everyone hours of SE hunting, titan hunting, leveling, etc. to an intentional act that they have full records of doing?  I was almost at full stamina that time, and so gained very little from the glitch, but I recognized it as such.

 

The reward chests from this GE are the best they have ever been - 5K kills (or, if you prefer, 1K bunnies) got you 3 chests that would, if bought in the AH, cost at least 200 fsp each.

 

Which is how the event was rolled out, but then a select group of individuals got another 200 FSP reward for 10k kills (or, if you prefer, 2K bunnies) that no one could possibly have known about until after the fact, and it is this selective advantage that some got but not other that is what people are upset about. If BG had arbitrarily decided that anyone with an ingame name starting with the first half of the alphabet got an extra reward, would you be equally okay with it?

 

Stop complaining folks ....

 

 

the point that is being missed is its a "bonus chest" at cow's discretion for what they feel was an 'above the call' effort, it wasnt a "designated earned chest" , i know of one person who always goes above the call and randomly did minimum this time cos ruby was already achieved and got only 3 chests, they were happy just to get three really good chests for an easy 15 mins work, they arent on here debating, i admire that person so much in times like this :)

But they weren't doing it for the community.  A number of them have admitted it in this forum that they were doing it exclusively for their own personal collection of fragments for composing, as the Ruby tier was already blown out of the water.

If everyone that did not make the top 100 list stopped at the minimum, then we would not have reached the Ruby level.  It takes players going above and beyond to make it happen.  That is the problem, when people get on here and complain about the Ruby level being set too high, because they don't want to go beyond the minimum. I had 37K when I put in an additional hunt to get above 40K kills not for the frags but in case the Cows did offer this, I thought that number of kills would be enough to get the extra chest.  I do not compose enough to need the extra frags.

I'm coming out of the closet...I am a GE sandbagger :P I believe I have  qualified in every  GE since the beginning and only get enough kills for Ruby Tier even though some events didn't make it that far. I had plenty of reasons I didn't do more, burned stam for a hunt, not enough max stam ect. This GE was different because I need common frags and the bunny gave common frags + bonus frags :) So, the amount of kills was not my concern, just frags gotten with minimum stam used. My GE kills were greater than 18K so I got a very nice surprise...EE Basket #4 :D Do I feel guilty receiving the extra basket? Hell NO! The celestial bodies lined up just perfect for me here at FS and I benefited :D

 

Should HCS announce this bonus or amount of kills needed to gain the bonus, I think not.

 

Even though I may have the usual excuse not to do more than qualify kills, I will look back and think that maybe I better do extra kills just in case the bonus pops up again :D

 

Thanks HCS for the awesome Global Event!!!

I was quite pleased with the event, and yes I did get 6 chests total, but I put in over 3 hours hitting bunnies and eggs.  50K were without a global booster, because I wanted to earn more frags, and was not worried about getting top 100 until I realized it was attainable.

 

Again, quite pleased with the frags and the chests.....  I would have been content with the 3 +2 chests and the "tons" of frags I collected.

 

.... but wait... reading some posts preceding mine.... a thought hits me......

 

Shouldn't I get more chests since I had over 300K kills?  I certainly deserve more than someone getting only 15K kills...... right?  right?

 

< end sarcasm>

 

Face it, HCS will never please everyone with anything they do.

I think it is not fair for those who do 200k+ kills to get the same reward as those who only did the bare minimum of 5k kills

 

Wrong event to raise this one. When the community is getting double the required kills, then going for 200k kills is entirely a personal choice. Unfairness has nothing to do with it.




#929256 Game improvement suggestion.

Posted by Rsrdaman on 19 April 2015 - 19:30

Well, after reading through the news on the home screen of FS a few times, I thought of something that would be quite useful: Having the ability to click on the image of whatever special event/legendary creatures (or even the event rewards, for that matter) that had been posted there, and be immediately linked to their page on the FS Guide. Would make searching for info about these creatures much faster.

Seems to me this is about wanting more... Sorry but i think it is fine as is.. its a community Event wether you put in 5k kills or Put in 100k kills ... Get into top 100 sure then you deserved you bonus.. Get 1 spot out or lower than enjoy the Chest you'll recieve and try again next time.. Its honestly sad that this topic is even here and we cant just enjoy what HCS gives us...

Posted by GreatGazoo on 19 April 2015 - 03:45

so all those with a major stam bank can race it out and those that just have enough to get by are screwed? think about what your saying ... stop and smell the roses at your levels people. kill some SE's, hunt some Elites for a few cool sets ... your I want a win button is why the game is in the state it is




#929203 GLOBAL EVENT REWARD

Posted by GreatGazoo on 19 April 2015 - 03:01

smfh ... GREED! ... you already get 3 over powered potions, +2 more for being in the top 100 and a gazillion frags all at 5x per 1 stam and you want more? sigghhhh ... play the damn game!

If only it worked that way for everyone...the system was put in place for a reason so why change it now. This suggestion, if needed to make a comparison, would be like the hockey playoffs suddenly changing their format and everyone who made it to the playoffs gets a Stanley Cup. We just got done with a triple shard event and I seen countless chat posts, forum posts as well as global posts with people making thousands of fsps for seemingly doing nothing but watching a few videos. Upgrade your maximum stamina and fight for the top 100 spots to achieve the rewards offered to those that do. Theres no 'nice try' prize, thats why we have a list of the Top 100...gaming is competitive...otherwise nobody would bother.

WE ALREADY GOT CHEST WHY DO U WANT MORE BEST GE CHEST SO FAR




#929168 GLOBAL EVENT REWARD

Posted by moonfrost on 18 April 2015 - 18:15

Triple shard events, we want chests for 100k kills...double xp events...more fragment events...scripts that don't exist....how bout just passing out a win button for everyone and we'll call it a day.

 

Remember actually having to work for your achievements?




#928752 Killing Creatures with keyboard

Posted by gomezkilla on 15 April 2015 - 23:47

I actually like having to click to kill the champions and Elites. Provides a nice safety net for me so that I don't accidentally hit the key to kill it when I am not ready to hit it. And it doesn't slow down the hunting process all that much.




#928303 Update v2.70

Posted by Morgwyn on 13 April 2015 - 16:59

perhaps the cool down period for titan can go  from 7 days now down to 5? 4? :)

 

If you ask me it would make more sense to increase it to 10-14, with that doubler thing now. That way more guilds have a chance of securing it instead of less... I believe that was the point of the cool down period?




#928236 Update v2.70

Posted by RebornJedi on 13 April 2015 - 13:37

Titans will be fought with teleportation and slaughtered on the same spot with Doubler and Immobilise Titan... Epics will be sold for a handful of FSP... Personally it would of been so much better without Titan Doubler ever making light..
