Itos events for goodness gracious

WHEN CAN WE EVEN EXPECT EVENTS? For goodness gracious, it’s been months after the initial release of itos and not even a single event, in the present management we are absolutely distressed by the lack cluster and deflated mood of the game; what are we waiting for? I just can’t grasp how a supposedly big game can’t even have a event, and mind you the current state of meritocracy in the game is obviously low, if not for the people who are voicing complains in order to notify and bug out itos management I would have quit the game a long time ago. Just, please events.

I think IMC should probably think about starting a few simple events, perhaps considering some typical mmo events. Nothing game changing/map changing/permanent event like zombie invasion. Just simple.

It’s not hard to create some event such as a weekly/monthly hat rotation quest npc to give us rare hats for the month (say based on holidays or what not, cheesy but easy). Or a weekly farmable EXP book to encourage leveling.

Moreover, I think Happy Hour weekends would be a great idea for them too. This game is supposed to encourage party play, so have +10% exp for all 5 member parties on weekends might be something fun to throw around.

Exactly but instead we get absolutely nothing, I would be fine even if a simple login event however tracing how incompetent this team management, I can only irk my head in frustration.

The problem with exp events at the moment is that there’s not much end content for the current level cap…

Although the altaholics would celebrate

The thing about content and end game go hand in hand. If you focus a game on events/end game content, you naturally cycle the early stuff. If you focus on leveling and grind, then the early stuff isn’t cycled at all.

We can gain evidence on this from any high rate private server (RO being the most prominent example, but elsword has a private server too, as does MapleStory). If you have a high rate, and you need a guild alchemist say, you go and make an alt. Do you need a priest for buffs? Make an alt. But in the low rate, you won’t. It takes 2-3 months just to get the alt functional, then its stats are abyssmally low compared to the player who makes a priest for a priest’s sake.

Thus if players are not cycling old content in anticipation for an interesting end game, its due to grinding being too punishing for the reward. Making grinding simpler leads to more recycling of content, leading to less demand on IMC for r8/9, giving time to fix bugs granted how slow the process is.

Granted for this to happen, IMC really needs to beef up the endgame with more interesting things, PVP, Battlegrounds (i made a previous post), guild wars? (Something more formal than, I FOUND YOU! LETS FIGHT! If i wanted random encounter battles, we can play pokemon!), Raids, etc.

I wonder if events would even work on iTOS, I know in kTOS world boss events would cause at least 90% of the people doing it to crash.

#7

Regardless it’s not an excuse to give out poor mismanagement, even so there’s still the infamous EVENT TP and possible daily log ins, there are whole heap of ways to keep the game lively.

Well you know what? A unique armband for logging in like 12hrs straight in one day would be very much appreciated.

Take note: No stats. Not transferable.

This will also help them to check the headcount their players <3

Then again, yeah sound like an interesting concept…but coding it to track the headcount prob will be annoying…after all… they can’t even/don’t bother to track the huge and unexplainable amount of money the bots are amassing…

Well that’s a different kind of armband wahahahah!:heart_eyes: but aslong as unique I’ll take it. We can just use the steam chart for the player spike, atleast we know the we have players that is still there just waiting for a good update.

:< > ribbon armband from kTOs pls. Was used for a log in vent iirc.

But no, seriously, even if it’s just recycling some stuff over here.

Hell, put up the files on github, let us translate it (just like we did for the game) and we’ll take care of the dialogue/descriptions into english.

The yes/no events from Trickster could be fun… Shouldn’t be too hard to implement either
