Cosmic Exploration Upgrade Scaling

[Thurmnmurmn]

So at about 23:00 we had our fate on shiva... and it failed... it was about 300 ppl between all the instances... this really sucks

There were probably some people afk or slacking for you cuz we cleared on lamia with about 250 people. Granted we only had 2 minutes left at the end so it was still close.

Youre right i guess. Ofc i could not check the other instances but i did see some not doing anything (tbf at midnight some might have fallen asleep or just gave up...)

The 2nd chance at 6:40 in the morning did fail but around 15:00 we had slightly more then 300 and cleared without any issue... though idk if there was a bonus for being the 3rd attempt...

Still it sucks. The stages should always take an day, from all the fates i saw 2...

didn't finish the upgrade fate today as well, 200+ people participated but we only got to ~60%

I don't know what they thought when they designed these fates. Running back and forth for 40 minutes is not really peak gameplay.
Personally I'd rather let it fail 3 times in a row, than waste another 40 minutes of my live while desperately trying not to fall asleep.

Old school mmorpg and low effort business strategy, you have to sub after all so the rest is not important, you can always take a break no? Still better doing it after subbing, so the devs are happy. Seriously more than a decade and we still have this boring FATE system in every damn content.

yeah thats exactly what i'll do. i dont think zodiark had much problems though.

another weird thing are the mecha fates... no clue how they are called in english. wanted to do one in the morning. there were two other people around and in the end we were at 5-10%... dont know exactly its hard to guess.
afterwards someone told me you need a pilot player to be able to clear it. thats so stupid. it feels bad... and more so in the future with less people around all the time... especially for new players knowing nothing.

makes me wonder what happened to their 12 year experience developing this game.

the pilots contribute 10 or 20 times as many resources as players do, it makes sense that they fail without them x)
People without robots are pretty much useless in these fates

Or you just need about 30 people or so without any pilot.

Well they'll have introduce buffs to player contributions with Occult out in little over a week Cosmic will be even deader in numbers, hell at the current rate If Cosmic has 20 or more steps to Stage 1 I don't see this getting finished before 7.3 when we'll maybe be getting next Cosmic Zone without massive player buffs & nerfs to amount of contributions needed.

Oh my god... I didnt even have that on the Radar... totally forgot its still coming this patch. They REALLY should have given us Cosmic WAY earlier... It was already close now... And we all know, you will have a hard time if you dont join the new stuff...
