- What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Currently anytime an invasion or war is upcoming/occurring, you cannot get remotely near the zone. I understand this is not the first thread of its’ kind, but how at this point is this still an acceptable feature? Is it truly impossible to curate these encounters and experiences so that it acts as an Outpost Rush sort of ordeal? Why are we region blocked from a section of the map while these events are occurring? This is so asinine in design it’s quite literally baffling! Please @Luxendra @TrevzorFTW tell me you folks have some sort of improvement in the mix going forward to alleviate this absolutely mind-boggling design flaw. Currently, in this image, it’s more an inconvenience by blockading a significant chunk of the map, but in other zones, we have quests that are unable to be completed on account of this poor design choice! Typically I’m civil here in the forums, but this is quite literally the worst game design decision I’ve experienced in over 15 years of playing MMO’s. Where is the justification for these decisions being made? I’d love to hear the feedback!
This is not good design at all. I’m being actively restricted from farming materials in a game I paid for because they don’t want me in the area for an invasion? So now I have to hope another farming area is open. On top of walking or spend Azoth to get there.
7 days, where’s the feedback?
Not to mention the idea that the developers harp on day after day is “immersion”. If this isn’t immersion breaking, not sure what is lol.
If they want to keep this as a feature, they should at least add some sort of barrier effect so players aren’t blindsided by it when they’re going for a wolf or wirefiber for instance.
They want immersion, they could let the area be an open battle instead of restricted to only a few players. Or they could flag the players and enemies in it as “invasion” so they can only attack each other, like the PvP flag. It’s not a hard problem to solve.
