  1. I'll write my whole feedback about the most recent Christmas event and why I personally didn't like it. I'm doing all of this in a status update since I don't want to make a post or something big that promotes flaming; this is more of a /feedback status update/.

     

    I am not criticising the actors or anything, but I'm talking more about how poorly it was executed.

     

    And to start:

    It's Father Krugsmas, not Saint Krug or Krug.

     

    The event had a nice build unlike every other krugsmas event, where we had Father Krugsmas sitting in a chair at CT handing out a diamond or an iron ingot without lore. You could just sit on his lap and ask for a gift.

     

    It took too long to be done and some people didn't get the express. I know that it's cool and nice to reward people with little special items for doing something cool, but its Christmas. Just compare how many people were there at the start of the event and at the end.

     

    The concept of Krampus was annoying. But the skin was cool.

     

    The people doing events were constantly teleporting memers out and messaging them with threats.

     

    You couldn't hop on Father Krugsmas cart and sit on his lap because you were memeing.

     

    Roleplay emotes were far too complex, didn't give the feeling of christmas.

     

    You couldn't be the grinch on christmas.

     

    26th of december.

     

    I don't know if there was the PvP event planned for this 2PM EST, did it happen?

     

    This is the only christmas on LotC I personally didn't have fun. No one spoke about how good it was on discord.

     

    But again, this is a feedback thread. If anyone wants to start a flame wars with me, I'll straight up ignore.

      Event Team didn't spearhead Krugsmas. The ET that were willing and able assisted the Media Team with Krugsmas as dealing with finals, holidays, nation building, transition to Temp Isle, transition to Atlas, and more, was simply too much for one team to handle in such a short period. You have to remember we landed on Atlas on the 12th I believe, that gave staff less than 12 days to pull together Krugsmas with unplanned restarts, rollbacks, broken plugins and pex, while completing finals, building nations, and preparing for the holidays.

      Unlike past Krugsmas', where the team has months of time being on the map and none of the aforementioned obstacles to deal with, the team could have planned something, but sadly we didn't have that. One of the plans we had was to utilize a Krampus figure that would create RP fighting events with crazy evil toys, leading up to a capture the flag warzone within a christmas theme'd arena where players could choose to either fight for Santa or Krampus. The team that maintained the points longest would be declared the victor and would inturn reflect rewards given out. If Santa won, happy presents and rewards. If Krampus won, gingerbread men that bit back, and ghoulish jack in the boxes. 

      As stated, because of the drain on the ET, it didn't happen. Media Team came through with what they did and those ET that were free and willing (as it is still the holidays and your having people basically 'work' on the holidays) offered to help.

    Why are things like this allowed? It's actually unbelievably stupid.

      tbh, that's a lot smaller than one individual could 'realistically' do according to our lore from 2.5 years ago and hasn't undergone the 'power creep'.

      Understandable misunderstanding, but the broadcast hit 34 people and the group of 8 that went was them. If you come now, you can see that any and all are welcome to retake the city.

      They were not in the city space, that's a volcano. They listened to the 4 broadcasts instructing them to head West, following lightning and earthquakes. In fact, they were the first to leave the city.

    >City is in the middle of a lake, not connected to the coast of their region

    >"We are a nation based on SEAFARING TRADE and have a POWERFUL NAVY"

     

    Can someone please give me an explanation for this? Please? It's painful. 

    How do you have a navy when you're based in a lake? Why is there a ship in the lake? How did it get there? How does it get out? How does your not-so-deep lake support a giant sea monster? I'm very confused.

      For most of the map, trying to even put a sign down on a tile I own was disallowed by GM's. It's been a struggle to do anything without going through a lengthy process, one that simply didn't make much sense when comparing time and effort to outcome. Especially when our 1 builder has been building 6.0 for months.

       

      As for seafaring nation, we have boats around Ceru that are not land locked and we shipped goods in from various docks (Such as the old Halfling village, by the old ruins, and the pirate's bay). Just because the capital city is landlocked does not mean the nation is.

       

      As for the boat in the lake, someone built that boat in the lake. Only afterwards did they realize it was land locked. They swiftly sold it to someone for 10,000 and people now live in it like a house boat.

      Becca said you're needed to connect old mines to new mine world. Please do so, been waiting 2+ weeks. Have angry players.

      Do the boom sticks and crystals even work? I havent tried to have an opinion

  11. Person makes a poll about removing the energy system. Over 55% of the playerbase agrees (from a sample pool of 90 people), staff immediately says "sorry we think it's better it's staying". Typical Dev Team

      That poll was done a month ago and was made before the energy was increased and reworked. It isn't valid.

  18. Tahn, to my knowledge, is the most inactive island on Axios. Don't force everyone onto that ugly piece of land with some natural disaster or plague that can't be controlled.  Keep them where they are.  Plagues and natural disasters are poorly obscured reasons to force someone out of somewhere.
