New Garlean Invasion Event - North of Horizon

[Azurymber]

Achievements?

THATS Your reasoning?

time management is my reasoning. Spend time putting things in the game that everyone will experience and enjoy instead of little things that a few people will do and then forget about. If they cloned this and had it happening lets say every hour at a diff camp around the world -THAT- would be a good idea. But occuring once every day or 2 is essentially pointless.

Ever think that it could EQUALLY be as enjoyable for a player to come across a truly random event?
One that not EVERYONE sees?

Rewarding a player for being in the right place at the right time?

No, you were thinking about only yourself.

THATS the issue.

no i was thinking about the success of this game. Name one thing this game has that can compete with all the new MMOs? You can't because there isn't anything. Raids are nice but compared to SWTOR they are really inferior. There are no battles like in rift. Theres no real economy. The UI still fails for PC users. I don't like being negative but this game needs to get something unique. And spending time implementing little things like this takes manpower away from actually making this a modern competitive MMO.

#1. No I cant list a game that competes, nothing that WOULD compete is released yet.
#2. SWTOR isn't out yet. Wtf? How can you rate it already?
#3. This isn't RIFT and our convo was about random events?
#4. The economy isnt part of our conversation?
#5. Why do you keep changing the subject instead of addressing what we spoke about in our last post?

I'm done trying tonight. My head hurts.

Goodnight Forums.

Have you seen what SWTOR looks like?

Yeah it looks like utter crap, they are also setting themselves up for unsustainable content. Fully voiced everything? Yeah can't wait to see how slowly they churn events out for that system.

that only happens when the npc is up and for some reason it doesnt happen sometimes. LIke i was there an hour with npc up and no battle npc popped.

the npc doesnt spawn right at horizon, when alfgar pops in uldah he tells you to go to north horizon which is up on the map from the camp itself

Precisely, Akira. The NPC spawns where the actual battle takes place, not at the camp itself. I can't get on the game right now, but for Camp Tranquil, it's the first big clearing with the river along the path north towards Gridania. The NPC spawns at the southern entrance and the Garlean soldiers come from the path along the north.

I have other people who can confirm that the timing is consistently 20-30 mins.

Thus making this entire thread pointless.

I found this NPC in Bloodshore the other day. I got bored of waiting for the mobs to pop so I went to log trees in Cedar and left my alt at the camp. When I noticed the soldiers were up on my alt I ran back to Bloodshore on my main. I ran up to them and the little buggers despawned right before I engaged. Lost interest in the event now.

they have 1.5 million people signed up to try the beta.

If this game was given away free i doubt it could get 1.5 million people playing it....

ive been at that area for hours, its never spawned.. like i was there for a good 8 hours. and for an hour while roysia was up the other night. It happens 30 min for like an hour or so period every few days.

Then I suppose it could be a fluke or a bug of some sort. Come to Lindblum, I'll be happy to show you how often the event happens in our neck of the woods.
