guild quests - lost for words

[lordloocan]

Such fun, happened to stay up till 2am to see gq arrive, woohoo 'all' I have to do is make a codex....

Oops got a manuscript cooking and then need to do the codex, here's hoping I have enough time with a hide glue buff used up just for this quest and also happen to have 2 tomes in my stores. (The buff would probably sell for more than the quest reward will be) No idea how others are expected to do this who will be in work from 8am to 5pm, get home at about 6pm and login for about 7pm before bed at 11am. they have 4 hours to do it - not a hope, as they have been told in a guild mail.

can't see bb making too many adjustments but the best suggestion I've seen (often) is to have a quest waiting type thing so we can plan ahead for the next day.

as for making codex/tome... never gonna happen for me, even with a buff I can't do it and go to work and no i'm not going to log in b4 breakfast!

I play the game hard and I can`t believe what is happening.Produce a tome....yes sure.It means I have to produce manus first and all in a day! Suprisingly I only have one bookbinder and I usually try to have a few hours sleep!
I`ve had quests to give away granite, produce 750 adv paper with a level 1 adv paper mill!
So the past 3 days I haven`t managed a GQ.
Well I`m a socialist settler from now on.I`m fighting for the rights of all working settlers and going on strike!
No more guild quests for me until this changes and I won`t be buying any gems from the shop either!

I really dont get why you think that a big guild should be rewarded for being big, or why a big guild is regarded as being more active ??

I would prefer a small guild any day, and a small guild can be as active as a big guild. I feel this is discrimination, and that offends me.

Only thing that is good is that the ones that dont do guild quest dont get any coins. That should not have anything to do with guild size.

[MrLecti]

Beginning to think they want to kill off smaller guilds, in the last few days I've been expected to pay, 50 beans, 50 mahogany planks, 30 mahogany and produce 300 exo planks all for the grand sum of about 30 gc each.

Nobody in my guild is above lvl 48 apart from myself and I'm only lvl 51 so where am I supposed to get all this mahogany they want me to throw away on a a handful of guild coin?

After a couple days of testing I gotta say that I like the new gq system, but it obviously needs some improvement. As one of the bigger guild we're getting more than double the amount of guild coins than we used to get before. I agree though that it's not fair to smaller guilds, the gap is just too big. It was ok that bigger guilds got a higher reward with the old quests, but now that everyone gets the same ones the rewards should also be the same or at least make the difference a bit smaller.

And like many other said before I'd really like it if we got back the waiting quest and if production timer already started when the quest starts. But I don't think that the quests themselves are too difficult, if you want to complete them all it should be a challenge, not just 2 clicks. There are enough easy quests as well, it's ok if some are a bit harder.

What I really miss though is quests that actually encourage guild mates to work as a team. Quests like "move 2 hunters" make absolutely no sense. It was so often suggested to include coops in gq or something similar, but now that BB had the perfect opportunity to create new quests they failed to listen to player feedback.

Having had almost a full week on the new GQ system it is proving more of a challenge on some quests - I think about 5 are very taxing - but over 85% are fairly easy ones everyone should be able to manage. Well done BB for introducing a new system that provokes much discussion.
I am also in a big guild and we are averaging over 130gcc per day, we are all helping others to complete theirs and this provides a real team effort.

I do think though its still possible to work as a team just needs a little bit more thought. The move two hunters quest can be done by building a hunter level 1 and then move him once. Or building two and keeping them level 1 just to move for the quest but this depends on licences.

I think the bookbinder should not be included its too slow and maybe its just started making a codex when the quest to build a tome comes up. Way too difficult.
Also mahogany at lower than 50 should be scrapped. But that said its to be expected not to be able to do every quest and i think they have tried to gear them to make it difficult so that perhaps we do gem 1 or 2. Nothing wrong with that its a business too. But why the huge increase in gems max 50 would bring in good revenue because more would consider it.

half way thru skilling my new explorer I've actually put it on hold so I have manuscripts etc in store. this means the gq is actually halting my progress in the game!

today I have to pay 100 gunpowder. NO! even putting aside the value compared to ggc, no 1 can afford to part with gunpowder at the moment, so... NO!

big guilds get twice as many ggc as small guilds, that's just plain dumb! absolutely no excuse at all for this bb. why don't u favour the small guilds and give us twice as many coins? or, now here's a random idea... give us all the same
