My Opinions on the Market Garden event

So I played the event, both sides

Some points and experiences

  • Lag issues, it was real laggy, tanks were jittering, players/bots would warp from locations. Guys we are an FPS, a millisecond of delay can decide who’ll get killed, please do something about the lag

  • Unupgraded gear, guys whats the point of giving me a no perk soldier or a no upgrade gun? Unnecissary burden to all players

  • Terrible map, open field, on the bridge cap?

  • Rewards are decent for a bad event

  • Unbalanced, let’s show the lineups

so the lineups , is 4x paratroopers VS a well diverse german lineup, you have APC, assaulter, MG, rifleman, the only thing holding the german lineup are the snipers

Now consider this, before a paratrooper gets a class, they must drop, a real vulnerability when going against grounded germans that are aware.

I’m getting tired of these Fair Play Events, cos the squads dont work, they’re in no way balanced.

So How would I design future events after playing this one?

  • No more fair events, it is always developed with lack of foresight and balance thrown out the window. Stick to the regular 20k- bring whatever you want events, don’t try to invent things cos honestly, your new events suck. Just so you know 20k event solves 80% of the problems that fair events introduce.

  • Address optimization, I think that the shit load of planes are causing the lag? I dunno just make it not lag

  • Replace the 5k score with 1 match required

Devs my last message to you, I appreciate you guys trying new things, but if your execution/balancing is sloppy then stop making new things, stick to what works or learn to make good events.

Well there is also some anti tank guys but the US squad has no tanks xD

I think the event can easily be more fun if they add 1 pilot or ground attacker to the allies.

They should add the M22 with a glider plane drop in.

yep.

as i said in the in the main official post,

should have been a PVE where players have to collaborate with each other, assault fortified positions against already stantioned and ready to defend AI german forces on each point.
to a ratio of 5 to 1.

with additional German Amored reinforcements every 3 to 5 minutes to reinforce the points.
while keeping players on their toes.

Wait what xD no absolutely no xD Japan gets Special number 3 Ku-Ro (So-Ra) the allies get 2 tanks no need of more cold war stuff they got the AK and the Plane xD

“No, no, no!! We need to give the Soviets something so they don’t fall behind! They’re the only nation that can have something unique to themselves! And if we have to give them Cold War stuff, so be it!”

They can have A-40 Krylya Tanka its ww 2 :smiley:

They should make it more dynamic for USA and let them spawn Shermans from 8th minute. Late cavalry is better than nothing.

They didn’t even learn from past mistakes… i’m currently leaving matches back to pack with no delay trying to get US.

I find the event fun and fresh…although chaotic. I have experienced all of the same issues you have but it is not surprising…they still have all the issues from the hack 2 weeks ago, the slew of new bugs from the update yesterday and keep releasing things since…it’s mind boggling. Yesterday I had a post removed because I liked a reply to someone stating it is Hellfire and not Helldiver. I guess the people working on the platform are getting thin skinned from all the hate from this now inferior product. If they just spent the time fixing the bugs and not worrying about new content at the moment I would be happier…the bugs are starting to make it unplayable.

20k score is too much you get a couple bad teams in a row in some of these events and earn such a small amount of exp it just makes you want to give up. 5k is perfect altough I would tolerate up to 10k score needed, 20k can be a hassle and starts feelin like a heavy chore after a couple days…
