[Guide] Christmas Event 2013/14

[Tiletron]

I do have a small caveat about collectibles I would like the studio to clarify. Every day in the Daily Challenge, there is a thing where it asks you to gather all the collectibles on the map. Now for the last two days, this amount has been 34 items and, despite scouring the island for all of these, there isn't always 34 actually spawning in the world...

I realise the team has said sometimes you get none, sometimes a few and sometimes a lot, but if you can't complete it because the amount needed doesn't spawn, what's the point of having it if you're breaking the challenge's rules?

It would also be nice if players earned 5 presents every time the finish the challenge.

To my knowledge the stated amount in the collectibles quests always spawn all. (so far I've been able to find them all, mainly because I enjoy the challenge of finding those "hidden" collectibles.)

I've whispered you to ask if I could check your island and see if I can find those you've missed, but didn't get a reply yet.

Well today I found them all on sandycove, though I didn't yesterday; the problem also happens on the testserver.

[Sundisno]

I find them always but these collectibles can also be in rock, in a castle in a mine, just behind a tree. But I find them all everyday.
Be aware that not all collectibles are immediately visible, there is some delay for the last ones I encountered.

I have to agree with Sundisno on this matter - I don't believe I've ever had a situation in which the full number of collectibles hasn't spawned on my island. Admittedly however, some of the collectibles have been ridiculously hard to find, being hidden behind trees, rocks or buildings, yet every time I can't find them myself, I enlist help from my guild, and always get them all found eventually.

Sorry to say it, Tiletron, but although you feel you are searching your island fully, I suspect that you are simply not finding some well-hidden collectibles which are there...
