This is aimed at changing how events function and give the developers more time to work on content, and fix aspects of the game that need to be worked on in the process such as bug fixes, and other things.
Proposition here can go one of two ways:
Option 1
Option 1:
- Extending the events to 60 days allowing people who work or can’t currently play to participate in the event. Instead of time gating every 2 days it should be extended to 4. This would also mean the devs have even more time to polish and work on content instead of launching an event at all times. In compensation for our time we can be given additional rewards during this time, whether it be extra silver, portraits, weapon upgrade orders, vehicle upgrade orders, cosmetics, etc. during the time we’re waiting for the next time gate smaller objectives can be completed such as those that are usually gray progress points on the events road map, since these are usually silver, cosmetic orders, and other smaller things.
As for the smaller six-day events those can be extended out to 14 days offering additional rewards for the minor events, such as silver, upgrade orders, portraits, etc.
The 6-day events are the only ones that More often consistently come back around every year, but as far back as I can tell we haven’t really had many events if any at all that have had old event squads come back. This would allow more people to obtain those event squads with the wider event window. Either way it’s a win-win for both developer and player.
Option 2
Option 2:
- Removing the time gate from events entirely, keeping the score system and potentially increasing that to 25,000 to 30,000. Allowing players to grind as many levels as they want in a single day.
6 day events would still get increased to 14 days, and have additional rewards such as silver, upgrade orders, etc.
Both of these options would help cut down on the amount of events we have, Some players have began to grow tired of as many events back to back and have felt it is become a chore rather than relaxing. Many players Wait for an event to end just to immediately question “what event comes out tonight?”. This is not only damaging to the game and it’s overall health, but keeps constant not so important tasks popping up for the developers to deal with when they could be spending more time fixing bugs, adding maps, researching what they will do for the next update, etc. it creates extra stress for player and developer, on keeping up with everything.
End Note
End note:
This is just my proposition to try to solve two birds with one stone. Giving the developer more time to work on, polish content, fix bugs, and work on things that are a little more important.
What is the communities preference? What would you change different than this?
