Sorry, but when I take the time to run two sites, mine the ore, reprocess it, get the mineral and spend the 13mil to get a surprise box that has an entry level pyrolancea dose worth less than half a mil, thats an event Ill have to pass on. Frankly including agency support drops in this event given the time and expenditure it takes seems kind of lame to me. Having them turn up in boss loot on a real terrible drop percentage would be better than this. This is like being a kid excited for Christmas, only to open your present and discover the family got you a rubber dog turd instead of anything even remotely worthy. I typically love your events as a change of pace and fresh content, but this one Ill have to pass on unless the loot table and drop rates get adjusted. ISK/hour on this event is just plain horrid.
Pretty good event.
Been reading all morning with a giant bag of popcorn, it’s been hilarious tbh
CCP is like the mister bean of game developers 
all I can think of after reading this is…HAHAHA (yes, Im laughing at you CCP, not with you)
Think Ill get some hats made that say #MEGA(Make Events Great Again), sell them, and give the proceeds to CCP so maybe they can hire some folks that actually theory craft, playtest and care about the quality of special events like they used to. There once was a time I looked forward to these events, now Im beginning to see them all as ‘Resource Wars version 2.0’…which frankly Id rather run backwards through a cornfield with my pants down singing the Smurfs theme song than do. Psh.
It’s not even a real dog turd.
I’m getting the message.
Its strange because there was a timer there before. Now it’s gone. Bug or feature; you decide.
OK WTF is with this event. I have a couple of toons that need like 70 pts to get the last reward but the ■■■■ event wont give new tasks. Only task they all have is kill a player flying serp/angel ship. Reaaly CCP WTF
I podded out of my wormhole, switch clones and jump into a rattlesnake planning to do this event the whole evening. Needs 6 jumps to find a VIP site. After killing >50 Rats i tried to kill the carrier. Give up on this task after 1/3 Shield because i would definetley run out of ammo before it is dead. Scoop my MTU. <1m Loot. WTF!!! 4 Tickets… Hm. After 15!!! more jumps i find a normal Gala Site. Loot is also ■■■■… Ive done a few more, Loot is always ■■■■. The quests did not renew. I regret the whole evening, it would not have been worth the time investment even if not bugged.
TL;DR:
- Totally unrewarding
- Bugged as ■■■■
- A ■■■■■■■ evening wasted on this ■■■■
- Worst event ever
Except the kid had to pay 2 rubber dog turds for the chance to get a good present but only got 1 rubber dog turd in return
Sooooooooooooo…I understand the 13mil to acess the pleasure club, but for each ticket!?! Why couldn’t it be an initial payment and then you cash in your tickets, like a actual casino, I think (tho I have never been to a casino, so anyone with a gambling problem, #1 get help and #2 you know more about the subject). After doing a grand total of around 24 sites and opening 13 of the loot boxes I can say that the monet/for effort is way way way way off, I didnt gain money durring those two days of running sites, I started with 120 mil and ended with 150 mil. Only because I got lucky. As a alpha who is at his 5mil skill point limit (basically a skill ceiling for people who aren’t willing to shell out) this dumb. I could make 50mil a site in wh ratting but I waste my time here.
Thats where the real problem is, the sites are kinda fun yeah, doing that vip site with friends was kinda fun, was it worth it? GOD NO!! The problem is you make jack ■■■■ doing these sites.
I’m curious of #CCPFailed silence.
Either they:
- have dumped us
- fixing this crapvent
- don’t know what to say
Anxious to see if they will even respond.
And looking forward to event survey to put all -1
How can this be possible and whole regions to have NONE!!! 100+ jumps back and forward…and not a single site…and I roam through lowsec and get this? ???
CCP FIX YOUR DAMN GAME!
Not to mention 5+ gala VIP in lowsec factional Warfare…I mean…risking carriers like that is stupid for a boss that takes about 30-60 min to kill, and that can kill you easily…
Looks like it is bugged all right. Most buggy event I remember.
As an industrialist, this is the best ever event so far….
Im still thinking this is a dream or a joke. If its not intentional they are incompetent, if it is, they are jackasses.
They’ll respond.
First, though, they have to have a meeting (Might take a day or two to get organized).
Then they have to submit their response to PA for vetting (Might take another day or two).
Next they have to redo the response with the corrections PA wants (Another couple of days).
Once more send PA the fixed response (Yup. Another day or so).
Then they’ll take a few days to post it.
Once posted, they’ll all head over to the pub to have a drink and pat themselves on the back for a job well done… and then proceed to ignore the thread for another week.
Basically, you mean, they will answer when event will be over and it’ll sounds like “TY for feedback, it was a great event” ?
That’s about it.
Well i think a full Mackinaw can almost fill one run on a Basic BP…Hurray. That means mining like 10 sites or so. In the so tanky Mack.
As long as People use the Tickets and pay for the Lootboxes they have all the Feedback they need…
“Gambling and Paying for Lootboxes is accepted by the Community” go on proceed with next Step
