I'm more than likely working right now.

1) That blase attitude does not surprise me at all. It will be his new 'cut n paste' answer no doubt to any question, after he exhausted "the voucher codes were in the mail" responses to every bug report, before filing them as NO BUG.
2) No surprise there either. It was not made clear last year, and caused a great deal of confusion, and wasted purchases of 'spare' adventures that were not necessary. The point really has to be hammered home this time, both on the login page, and the tooltips that appear whilst the game is loading.
3) Of course we will, but it would be a darn site easier if the thing was explained properly in the first place.
4) Head -----> Brick Wall. It used to be that way, but a change in personnel turned the whole test environment into a farce as far as test/feedback was concerned. Very little testing going on there these days, it's just a playground where you can experience the game with no financial outlay.
5) Hear hear, events should always have clear, unambiguous descriptions, and if that means placing it where it cannot be missed, so be it.

Wondered what had happened to the Easter event on the test server as I haven't had a quest for a couple of days. There is nothing posted on the test server information or news but by checking siedler-vision.de I discovered that Easter event quest chains only appear every 5 days. Perhaps this could be made clearer on the main server when it goes live.
I also totally agree with all that Nogbad has said.
What i dont understand is why are the Easter adventures available to players below level 17? They cant get the quests so doing the adventures will get them nothing. Or am i mistaken?
Why not let everyone get 10 eggs for every adv completed? Would put a few more out there for people to trade with.

Well, I think the adventures are also intended to be fun. Which is fine, so why not let everyone play them if they want to.
But the technical/confusion problem is caused by the fact that there's a limit on them. Removing that limit would be another solution, but I guess there's a good reason for there being a limit. Server load?
I quite like the Easter adventures, and yes, they are fun, the first time you do them. After that, you know where the eggs all are, and can complete each adventure in under 60 seconds!
I've spent a considerable amount of time mapping out the Easter adventures (see this thread), but I would be the first to agree to random placement, or even randomly choosing one of 3 or 4 different setups when starting the adventure. This renders all the map guides obsolete, and ensures everyone has to actually look for the eggs. It would also mean you could do the adventure more than once, and not know where all the eggs were, leading to much more fun for the player.

hi....where can i see te chance for getting eggs with explorers...short/med/long search?
Sorry for my englease and tyvm
E.g. here
...or more exactly from Siedler Vision:
Basically, in the long run, you'll get the same number of eggs regardless which search you use.
However, since you won't have to log in as often to do the very long searches, those are the ones I'll be doing.

Helo all. Didnt read all the pages, but one thing that i find not really fair is the level requirements for different parts.
Like with other events - you are doing it again. Lvl 39 is only few k exp away from lvl 40, yet you ask lvl 40 to pay insane prices for quests, or sacrifice insane numbers of troops.
I do understand, that lvl brackets are needed, but seriously? Comparing lvl 50 and 40 in same category ? Someone with Elites, cannons and crossbows in the same line as someone who just lvled ? ( And yes, i got my lvl 40 yesterday, and sorry i dont want to wait for all events with my lvl. It should be somewhat fair for all, so maybe few extra groups of lvls?
Thanks for reading.
