Events

Anyone else think its extremely boring how every event is released with EXACTALLY what it has, where it is, what to do, how to do it, and what you get? there is no surprise in this game at all.

I would like to see some events released where they don't tell you how to do everything and hold your hand though the whole thing.

sure people would miss out on things but at the same time It would also ad a little variety to this game. I mean every event is the same. 500000 players all on the exact same spot doing the exact same thing. because everyone knows what to do where to do it and how its done.

just saying.

So you want an event, but not tell anyone about it? Now that sounds like a boring event.

You don't have to look at how to get it...you can just glance at the announcement and never look it up. I didn't bother to look at the spring event because I was just plain not interested. I do kind of regret not getting the Valentione barding.

Who said not tell anyone about it?

how about this,

HAPPY HOLLOWEEN! many activities have been added for the new season!
get ready for some spooky thrills and exciting challenges!

tada... people now know there is an event and they can go explore and find whats added and if there are more hidden events you can add special items... wow the game got so much more exciting.. people exploring, and teaming up to look for interesting new things.

your right sounds WAY more fun

I like this game a lot. but I have a huge problem with how there is NOTHING unique. everyone grinds for the same armors, the sets are all standardized, everything is a ladder, one step after another. MIX IT UP! I would rather see 5 people get a rare item that everyone longs for and thrive to grind out or hunt for than have 50000000 players all with the exact same gear and doing the same bosses so many times its mindless memory at that point

And then people miss some content and come back raging on the forums the next week. Great. That would work if events had a longer duration, not just some days for the players to disconver and acquire the seasonal items.

Go vote/require more horizontal progression on the topics about it. I too feel like you and want more uniqueness!

Well my guess is they want a community event not something only a handful of people get, imagine all the PO'ed people that participate and got nothing. People have been grinding for months now for various things, also guessing they do it a a treat to get something fairly easily and not another mind numbing grind. Just a way for them to say thanks and have some fun, not grinding content. Thats just my take on the event thing. The last event was pretty fun, atleast on our server was like a spring break beach party. Everyone got together and had some laughs, an escape from a grind for many.

who cares about the baby's who cry over missed content? I mean really.. gamers have turned into crybabies... its like everyone needs their hands held. its so annoying. take this (meaning any quest) quest I just did, you literally don't even need to read a single thing. its as simple as 1) Click "!" 2) go to spot marked on map 3) do "fill in mindless whatever here" at that spot 4) return. I mean when wow first came out sure the quest said "go here and do this but at least you had to LOOK at that to see it. I stoped playing this game for 9 months just due to the fact that it was so boring to have everything just given to me. I came back because as I said I like the game itself and missed it. I'm back on and I see its even more babied then before. now you can even get past event stuff without even PLAYING the event. its silly!!!

your thinking way to single minded. its not like you host an event with 1 challenge and say goodluck and if you miss it, piss off. no of course not. its like a triangle. have a lot of easy silly events people can do, then fewer challenging ones and for those who really look and challenge themselves stumble across secret rare events where they get special unique items!

god that would made this game SO much better!

not to mention one other thing. the fact that all the gear and items are so uniform and vertical scale makes the market systems very boring as well since everyone wants the same next item. just one clone after another.
