Character XP needs to be double for the entire month. We need more people coming back into the game. All XP needs to be away from the holiday. People are going to family, traveling, parties, etc.
Just stop making this game a chore, Let people level up their character a bit faster, i promise you that people arent going to rush through 500-600 GS in a nanosecond. Just let people catch up to be able to war, arenas, PVP quest.
No one is going to be upset if you make peoples 1-60 half the time. I know me and many others will love it since i don’t have to watch my friends get bored town board leveling or power leveling portals just so i can THEN gearscore farm them to 600 and THEN actually be able to pvp with them.
Stop making this game a chore WHEN THERE IS NO HARM INCREASING XP RATES 1-60!!!
Hey, thanks for your feedback! Over the last couple of months, we’ve made some changes to level progression on top of the XP bonus events but I hear you! I’ll talk to the team about getting some more events in in upcoming months.
I’m a bit perplexed as to why the bonus XP Events are occurring during the weekday instead over the weekend from Friday 3:00am (EST) to Monday 3:00am (EST) morning, but at least enable them during peek days Friday through Sunday, they should be active since most of the player base are usually on during the weekends. Perhaps keep throwing in some “Free to Play” weekend events along with Bonus XP events since the “Free to Play” event is limited time. This way, new/returning players can “double dip” in on the action. You may just end up with some more new or returning players. Food for thought.
We’re all perplexed as to why no weekends and myself as to why they just wouldn’t be overly generous with the XP event in general. Only possibly downside’s to it would be que’s on the highest populated servers and complaints from people who did it all without the bonus XP.
The July update atleast according to the video is going to address alot of the primary pain points why people left rng on drops and crafting useless perks and the expertise grind. (15 free normal runs a day will really help people get through it much faster).
So they had a chance to get alot of players trying the game and returning by being very generous with the XP and a July patch aimed at player retention they just didn’t do it.
I’m very confused how something like this gets a pass, I’m jobless so I can participate during weekdays.
But your average 9-5 worker with a wife and kids won’t be able to benefit from this event, and that should be your target audience for catchup events like these.
Best solution would be playing both sides and having each event last the entire week.
It’s probably already too late to make changes to this event so this is basically wasted and causes 0 growth L.
@Luxendra have the team considered a double expertise bump weekend? So if a drop would normally have given the player +4 expertise it’d give them +8 instead.
I have friends who haven’t come back because they can’t face the long grind to 600 expertise just to be able to play competitively with me in pvp.
The biggest complain I have is the scheduling these on weekdays, these events should run across weekends at the very least as many weekend days as weekdays.
i literaly leveled from 45 to 60 in less than 2 days when it came out, a friend went from 49 so 60 in a day… and you want a month for xp? the problem with nw is that everything is easy, not the other way around…
And the fact that you think people wont rush to 600 says it all. i went from 500 to 600 in a week and a half. A bit more for 625 cause you need a good team to make mutations.
You are not evaluating things correctly.
The game’s appeal is war and PVP, but to achieve a fair fight is a tedious process for most people, which is a departure from the original purpose of the game
@Luxendra This thread is not asking for more updates, just more dev thought into the DAYS these events happen.
And I totally agree with the general census that we need events to happen on a full seven to nine day cycle so that weekend players can enjoy the events as well. For those of us that are busy, this not only gives us extra days to play during events, but also get people who have life/work schedules to get in and enjoy the events no matter their schedule.
Also, regarding the crafting bonus xp event - Yes I get maybe somebody screwed the pooch with this, but to put this on a holiday weekend is just cruel.
I’m just curious as to why the double xp is during the weekday. This is the only game where I’ve seen this be the case. Is there a reason why the devs chose the weekday to have the double exp event? I maybe can participate for 1 hour maximum unfortunately.
