Make old feast rewards somehow available again

[RiyahArp]

The feast rewards aren't working to bring players into it, simple as that. You've had nine seasons, and what, 4 1/2 exclusive rewards, as well as a whole bunch of light party stuff, and it's not working. No one cares that the top ten gets stuff, apart from the mount, which annoyed mount collectors. You never see them, because there's no guarantee anyone on your data center might have one. If the idea was to get people excited about feast, they've failed.

if you want to argue that people doing feast should be rewarded, ok, but people are going to start to wonder why something which probably has as much players as Lord of Verminion gets all this attention. You want to keep exclusive stuff, ok, but you can't just rely on that to get people in the mode. No one is bothering.

Until feedback and suggestions are taken seriously and implemented feast will stay in the unpredictable mess that it currently Is, Gms need more power regarding pvp reports, cheaters and boosters but where is that for example? they take chat log spam more seriously then a speedhacker, you know how much of a joke that is? Doesn't set a good standard at all.

I agree with you 100% on this. Things like this (among others) are why Feast has the reputation that it has. And yet in interviews, YoshiP has said something like "Well, people get heated and file reports, and we investigate them, but they let their emotions get in the way..." And that makes players feel like the devs aren't taking their concerns seriously. I think the GM's hands are tied with regard to the actions they can take. I know that one notorious match-thrower has been reported dozens of times, yet no action has been taken.

Realistically rank decay wont change much at all, It's not like those who are below will suddenly rise up from this nor will people who are high suddenly drop from top 100 its a wasted and unnecessary action. It wont be done anyway, not with the "highest score" in affect.

I'm glad they did that highest-score-in-effect change, but there's nothing stopping from no-lifeing it to the top and then purposefully losing all other matches so that they act like "gatekeepers" for themselves and their alts/friends/customers. It's sad, but the possibility is most definitely there.

[B]Real talk: Majority are just too lazy to bother and instead refer to begging with unrealistic ideas and suggestions which take no account of pvp reward structure, value and design in gaming

I can't speak for everyone else, but I for one would like to earn the rewards in a way that is balanced, fair and truly embodies the spirit of competition. Not this mess that we have now.

(I had to break this post up into 3 parts to get it to show correctly).

So it seems the majority of the playerbase wants feast rewards back even within the pvp-community. If I'd do the same post in the general discussion forum, there would be even more people agreeing with that and those people would most likely also want those rewards outside of pvp. I hope that we finally get a dev/admin/gm/whatever respond on that matter because I'm not the first person requesting this and proabably not the last one if the dev-team remains silent on that.
As a reminder (because people tend to forget the title of this post), how the devs make old rewards obtainable isn't the topic here. It's that they add a possibility. There are many things that I'd like the devs to change in this game but I'm probably the only one (or at least I think I'm the only one) on most of those things. But I'm very convinced that this is something many people want to see. Especially because of the "recently" added mounts.

there would be even more people agreeing

Ofc, PvE players want PvP rewards, the thing is a very big majority wants them without touching PvP. And that should't happen. It is all about how they would implement it.

PVE players allready have the coolest weapons in the game and titles when they clear ultimate.
And no they shouldnt hand out Hellhound mounts to everyone in the game because some random guy is crying they didnt have the time/skill or whatever to get it.
That would be a big slap in the face for us who actually worked hard to get those items in the past.

Exactly this. If PvE Players want an easy way to grind old PvP rewards casually, PvP players need to be able to get Bahamuth title and weps "casually grindable" too

Actually you can get casually any old pve tittles or weapons. Any content that was in previous expansions are irrelevant and you can unsync and beat easily any content even without knowing strats. Old season rewards are not relevant content anymore just like second coil savage. Anything that happen in previous expansions are irrelevant right now. In blade and soul top 5 outfit only last one season. I think that is way better because you only deserve have it for one season once it is relevant.

Bahamut weapons and titles aren't exclusively limited nor timed though. You can work toward them at your own pace, practicing with the same static over and over until you get it.

If Feast were done similarly, where you could work toward the rewards with the same team where you understand each other's playstyles and such, then that would be totally fine.

I would like the opportunity to earn those old rewards again. Right now we don't even have that. We couldn't even obtain some of the things (the light party prizes) even if we wanted to because that mode has been totally gutted.

GMs dont care at all, There has been Wintrade/Boosting and ppl playing on alts to get better matchmaking, fucking over other ppls rating the only thing GMs care about in this game is if you badmouth someone that will get you warned or even banned quick.
I kinda agree that ppl who struggle to get into top 100 might need some more incentive to play Feast everyone cant be super good pvp players i get that.
I also know you get buy like 1 Hellhound weapon doing 2 seasons as Gold Rank but those weapons are so lackluster they need a glow or something added to them.
Maybe make so you can buy parts of the armor for the tokens you get at end of season aswell and not just the weapons.
