Clearly the Christmas event was a last minute thing. Felt lazy and must have taken AGS a whole 2 hours to make. How can AGS make holiday events ACTUALLY FUN?

I have seen several, and had one burst directly overhead last night. I was running around gathering it all up because I was the only one in the area at that moment. :smile:

Where the Winter Warrior spawns in Great Cleave. I have seen two come down there.

I was actually in GC when the one popped over me.

No Xmas tree, no Santa outfits, horrible world boss fights with 1 million ads that 1 shot you… SO FUNN especially on dead servers that never get merged. Turkey event for Thanksgiving was way more relaxing, a chicken walking around and shooting lasers. Halloween & Winter world bosses are a pain in every way. Unless you are on a streamer paid/promoted streamer, no one else is doing it.

Make events fun? Scrap them and keep producing real content.

The events are just hold overs for real developments.

…Does the eggnog still say 2021 underneath it? Lol.

I think the devs put about the right amount of effort into the events. I’ve seen a few gleamite showers and each time it was pretty exciting and I stopped what I was doing to gather it. Last year I think the gleamite was more common (or I was close to it more often) and I wasn’t even bothering to mine it at the end.

I like the big event boss style they have been using for the last few events and think the community aspect of the train running is quite suitable for the season. However, it would be good to see this scale to population, as a long fight with a few people for a fairly lacklustre reward is not fun.

The biggest failing would probably be a lack of generosity in the rewards. The presents almost always give the same 5 tokens and it seems very rare to get a pattern. Seemed like we got a lot more patterns and premium tokens last year. I don’t actually need more stuff, so it’s fine, but I’ve heard a lot of people complain and I think if there were more premium tokens in the gift boxes, people wouldn’t have to grind the Winter Warrior and could instead retain the fun memories of early battles.

best part was the devs just saying how they can copy paste their events and everyone is happy hahaha they are really out of touch

Why all events are kinda same ?
It’s boring seriously

Because New World is an Amazon Basic product. So, its quality is like all the other Amazon Basic products.

Take a look a the difference between New World’s events and other MMOs which shall not be named holiday events. It’s a pretty big difference.

Please name a few and describe the differences so we can compare and contrast.

Winter’s Day in GW2

The 3 different Winter Holiday events going on in BDO.

Just to name a few. I don’t get paid to do research. But I can give you further details, but then I’ll have to charge you for my time.

Unfortunately that’s not quite enough information to make an accurate comparison. Lots of games have seasonal events but because you fail to describe the difference there’s no way to know how much better or worse NW’s events are when compared.

Look at the GW2 and BDO forums and maybe look at some Winter’s Day YouTube videos? Do the footwork yourself.

You sound like you are trying to avoid such knowledge anyways. So meh, it’s whatever to me.

You made the claim, my friend. The burden is on you. If you’re unwilling to back up your opinion you might consider keeping it to yourself.

Ok keep your head in the sand. It wasn’t for the likes of you anyways. It was for other people who wanted to know.

Anyways, you sir/ma’am/ or whatever have a wonderful day! :smiley:

How do you know it’s not for me? When you haven’t explained anything beyond a very informative “…because.” I might very well agree with you, but you keep refusing to help me “get head out of the sand.” Even though I keep asking.

I am having a great day it’s almost Christmas, I got all my shopping done, I am off work for 5 days! The only thing left is to enjoy dinner and watch the first snow of the year fall!
