Do you want us to believe that anyone is counting ?? - Honestly - you did not bother make a way for us to see it how far we got. You did not bother to make quests or ach for the event. So I dont know who actually believe someone is counting,- maybe some does- some also believe in Santa and in the tooth fairy.Quote:

This phrase from frontpage gave me the illusion that the adv would have been updated, with stronger troops and without that horrid red color, as that color was what made most people turn off in 2012 (including me.)
However to my and i think most players who where here in 2012 suprise there was nothing done at all to the adv, the loot even included the weapons loot in 2012 had , but since 2014 no longer do.
It seems learning from past mistakes is not a skill BB has. No removing that horrid red, no updated adventure with troops with renewed strenght as promised.....The players who did like the 2012 event and asked for a repeat did this mainly cause it was a hard adv, a difficult task to succeed and they wanted something just as challeging, so no suprise that the people most dissapointed with this event are the people who asked to repeat it....
First of all that headache causing color, you cant be suprised we hate that, we allready told you so in 2012, was for most players reason to stop doing them during that event. But no its still there, seems you guys like to create eyesight problems and headaches for your players.
9 Years those shamans had to renew their strenght so they would have better weapons this time around, doing it with the same weapons would be loonatic afterall, if they lost with them in 2012 when we hardly had any good generals or troops (most didnt even have xbows then)then for sure they dont stand a chance now. reason why they needed to restrenght, wich they did according to frontpage, sadly that was a lie, as they didnt restrenght at all, no hard troops in them, nah just the same rubbish as in 2012. (and while they where hard troops in 2012 they are easy ones now)
Simply copy/pasting an event from the past isnt just lazy, its darn insulting if you ask me. And i indeed do feel insulted with this poop...cant put it any other way.....
How much work would it have been to rework them camps, add some chupabra-like troops to it, maybe even make 3 versions, 1 for level 26 to 45, 1 from 45 to 60 and 1 for players above level 60, with according troops. Improved the loot so every player wants to play that adv not even for the end reward but cause its such great loot, just add some grout or obsidian ore and most players would have been grinding eotw adventures.
But nah, why even put in some effort, if you can just as wel lazy copy/past and outdated adv?
Bundles:
First lets praise the only positive thing from this event, the fishbundle, as i told people over and over, get the fishbundle and call event for ended......
Gembundles..... If it was meaned to create some gembundles really no one wants then congratulations, you outdid yourself this time, really none of them gembundles is even worth to look at, let it be buying them... Not only do i have gems for bundles, i would love to spend gems on some usefull bundles, and i am not alone, many like me are willing to spend gems on bundles, as long as they are worth it, sadly this event none of them excist.
If you cant even convince the players willing to spend gems they get a good deal buying that bundle then how will you even convince the majority who sits on their gems like they are golden eggs to buy them?
And then finally the fact you promise that explorers will find the adv. and that you would publish daily updates what the situation was , and how far people where from bronze or silver or whatever... 2 failed promisses, wich only add to the mess this event is.
Sadly seeing BB's reaction today they still dont get it, and are still going to press on with this nonsense, even got the nerve to encourage people to help others do the adv....LOL All I do is tell people get the fishbundle and run..... Dont do the adv if you care for your eyesight. I can only cincearly wish we will fail to even reach bronze tier, simply cause i dont want the rubbish we get as comunity reward, wich only consist out of starpoluters.
I can only hope that at least they will give an oportunity to deny, refuse the rewards, so I dont get punished with this "reward".
Last edition:
I want to congratulate BB on the fact that they managed to get allmost all players to unite against 1 common enemy, too sad it aint the shamans that BB hoped for, but against the people who decided this event in this form was a good idea..... :)
BTW Allmost end of the afternoon and still no update on the numbers....i start to suspect they are afraid to tell us how few adv really have been done
It would appear that this is aimed at low- to mid level players and I have absolutely no problem with that - they 'come up short' during most other events. I am happy to play my part.
In real life, throughout history, the End of the World have been predicted many times, but when it misses the deadline, the Doomsayers are rarely called upon for an explanation. This time at least, a transposition error divisible by 9 is proffered.
now you (BB) are joking - right?
first set silver step @150% now it is 170% -- got it the event will finish on 170 %
please explain how and who came up with that number because i don't think we gona finish that race.
and why not give a solid number not a wishy-washy percentage
they havent set silver at 170% what there saying is if we carry on we will have got 170% so that will be the silver level of rewards ..that in itself is a miracle as no one i know is doing it they did a couple to start off with then gave upQuote:
