Halloween Event Feedback

[Colgate]

didn't get to log in while it was going on, but from what i heard it generated a lot of fun pvp on red99

who gives a shit what the rewards were?

GM events shouldn't mean "time to collect welfare pixels" you ungrateful crybabies

sounded to me like it was an original event that fit the halloween theme

looking forward to more things along this line in the future, thanks braknar

I agree, the event was conducive to actual fun PVP on the red server. And that GM events shouldn't be about collecting "welfare pixels." But what you're missing, is that the event/quest was broken, and the quest NPC's were despawned before most people had a chance to complete the event. There was no possible way to finish the event without a dedicated bard and porter.

I agree, those people are idiots and you should be able to enjoy the event for what it is regardless of the reward.

Can confirm as someone that had a port/bard group I only completed the event with about 1-1.5 hrs to spare before they killed the event. I'm fairly certain if I was melee without a guild/friends of the port/bard variety I wouldn't have completed.

i hope you are refering to the red server event? because on blue nothing was broken? nothing depsawned? not sure what you are talking about, even sirken and barakaner were willing able to assist to anyone who had any interruptions during then event.


where do we enter "this would of not happened on red server"

This 100% - at least on Red it was a lot of fun seeing people actually go at it for once.

not about pixel handouts, but server coming together on an event, forget about fraps, and the server lawyers, get down to some odd encounters.

Doesnt matter if its red or blue, would of been fun to also have a pvp event!!

I mean I'm being a bit critical calling this event a "troll," don't let that undermine my criticism. I just want to address the issues with this event, so that the next one can be a hit. On a more positive note, I feel like one major point of success was that on the red server, the PvP was actually fun this time around. The initial vagueness to the quest, along with how spread out the event npc's were, kept the event from becoming 70 people camping a spire or zone line. In that regard, this event was much better designed than the Velious launch. I'm being very critical of this event from a technical perspective, but if the quest "actually worked" it had potential to be a very fun event. There was a lot wrong with it, but also a lot that was done well.

Oh, you're a Red player.
