gem sale
loads of stuff for gems
game shutting down in ~3 months?
honestly, i don't like these surprises, there are some bundles i interested on but i can't buy now maybe if you give a hint before start i would be ready,
BB people like surprise gifts not surprise events!!!!
have to say i would of prob bought most of the gem packs so that would of been some nice payments going to bb but as it stands as you havent been keeping us informed about the end of game and that is what it looks like cause you have nothing in place then i will keep my money for now maybe in 6 months or so when the game either has a future or its gone then if its around will grab gems then
So if you don't have a lot of Crystals stored for Of Songs And Curses and The Dargon’s Roost, you are forced to buy the last 8 of each needed for achievements for 279 gems each? That's not going to happen.
I assume most players don't store 1000 crystals, just in case they are needed for a surprise event... 12 of each adventure is way to much, since they can't me obtained by other means, like most other adventures.
At least with Old Friends you only have to do 5, and that can be bought and sold on the TO.

Just to be clear - it is necessary to do all the achievements during the timeslot (approx. 10 days)? Nonfinished achievements will not be available then?
i just used 1000 crystals but i dont save them for any event, its just more fun to use them when one have a lot
Thanks BB for the free stuff, but why for some of us you have locked the package "witch bundle 3"?
3 of 4 generals are usefull and i think many players will buy it.
Btw you lose for that not me.

i find events nice - keeps the game interessting -- but hth should a smaller player get the "free" stuff or do scis/ vlt /tdb ??
why is the x4 achivment 5 addies when all others are the amount of their factor?
how should we get those amount of gems, the last event is only 1 month away and it was quite expensive - some players simply can't/ don't want to spent big amounts of rl money
why are the event map fragments different from the chest adventure map fragments, I.E. VLT
Awful event, replace Split City with a normal adv and we might stand a chance, assuming the Excelsior fruit machine coughs up enough ventures.
Already missed 1st day thanks to UPlay yet again, and reduced income means gem purchases are way down the list compared to food and rent.
Do BB even watch the news?
Afraid this is a non-starter, please go away and come back with something sensible.

Way too much to achieve in 10 days! Barracks was in upgrade but even so who has the time to run this number of advs in such a short timescale? Totally rediculous and unachieveable! I won't even bother to do any and wait for something better thought through.
I agree with earlier comments that if you have a workable solution for December that looks like it could work then tell us what you doing so we have more confidence to part with our hard earned cash!

in the german forum a lvl 80 calculated 52 h for all addies - and i think is much faster than most of the players around lvl 40 - 70
that is up to 5 - 6h a day - very unhealthy to play that much
i will not be able to get any of the achievements as they all require completion of a co-op mission which i do not do - i wish bb would take note that there are a lot of players like me who do not do co-op missions

not achievable for me due to ventures
If the rewards were any good i might have tried.

So what you are saying is I actually need to *cut down* from my normal playtime.
The achievements are listed in the missions section, not in the event section. Does that mean they will still be available to achieve beyond the event timeframe? If not, will they be changed to 100% completed, like other event achievements have been, even when they have not been *actually* achieved? Would be nice to have an answer to this, but I suppose we'll all find out one way or the other in 5 days when the event ends.
I don't mind a suprise event. The bundles were nice. But the rewards set for the achievements are a bit low - IF we are expected to achieve them within the event 10 day time frame.
I'm ok with the event. It's just nice extra stuff. With achievements I'd only do them if they stay. Can't be bothered to do all that within 10 days - not worth the effort. But otherwise, good stuff, no complaints.
Dont rarely post but from what I have seen and played this is aimed at high level players due to the Summer adv, quite a few in our guild cannot play this Cultist due to the troops and generals required for Summer.
Also I am stuck on VI due to Songs and Praises and Dragons Roost required from spins in Excelsior which when spin I get the Intel adv, which isnt part of this season. I certainly wont be using gems to buy these either.
Only way it has helped me is the XP and double resources.
Also the resources packages require large warehouses, not suited for lower level players, but there is a way round this.
Overall not balanced season event at all.

way too expensive to keep buying gems for the bundles and with soo many of each venture/addy/coop to do its just impossible, seems to me that this is just a money maker as we have no info as to if the game will even exist in January! Looks like making money is the priority rather than sorting the continuation of the game and keeping players hanging

Welcome the the real world of f2p gaming.
Totally agree. Just not enough time to do so many adventures !!

I am a low level and started like a less then a month ago.
The last free package which was nice with PFB I could not buy.
Not enough storage and even using all my Building licences I still was not gonna have enough:(
I could not finish one achievement due to having to do the SCIS co-op for all achievements to count.
How the heck can a low level finish one when you need more troops to do it then all the others combined.
The higher level ones I could always get a lootspot for from guildies, but it did not help cause still needed a SCIS.
This was really just an event for higher levels to get achievements, and us lower levels get nothing :(
So, are the achievement still available? Not that achievement points mean anything, since I missed some because a bug, and had no chance of getting them.
