Alfgar's Event and Imperial Assault - Why did you make them "random" events?

[Elexia]

It makes perfect sense when you think about the fact the world is constantly changing and heading into the direction of basically apocalypse, so all of this stuff is happening at random because it's real time and not scripted. Much like in FFXI campaigns happened at random intervals with only a few triggers to predict when they'll attack (claiming certain outposts or doing certain Campaign Ops.)

Problem with this although the idea is interesting for some players this is just luck based event or you have to sit in a city for hours just hoping the event will happen in the city you're waiting in and on top of the be able to beat the 16 player cap to get in which gets filled pretty quick on some servers. As I posted on another thread JP side is also not very happy with how this LIVE event is taking place and they hope the LIVE YoshiP was saying were only these types of events which you have to happen to be at the right place at the right time.

But in Campaign you could stand in town and monitor enemy movements. So while you had to bounce around a lot, you could instantly go from one place to the next and actively do battles for a majority of the time.

They don't have to make them less random, just a little more frequent. I spent a few hours camping the spot in Ul'dah the other day to no avail.

I can understand what you mean, but these are quests related to the main story, content that all people playing would like to experience... The idea of "LIVE" could be as follows: "for 1 month since now Alfgar will stay in Gridania, giving you a task to complete and the he will depop.".
I'm not happy of how SE implemented these "LIVE" events.
