    I'm guessing they're going to gift the skin to anyone that logged in during the event because of how impossible it is to survive, considering they did the same for the Autumn Assault skin which was a thousand times easier to get.

    It'll just be on ARMAS, this is already known.

     

    I have no idea why people try to hide in this event.  Its the same as headless horseman so you should be running, not hiding.   Fragile and hard landings make the running element a lot easier since you can quickly traverse from the bottom to the top and back to the bottom again.  Surviving for 7 minutes is hard but the event looks to be dying down a bit, so if you really want the skin, now would be the time to do it.  Just make sure you're actively attacking people, district is using the fight club inactivity rule set so dealing damage to people is the only way to not get kicked.

     

    And for the love of god stop AFKing during snowball wars.  That event does not have a timer on it, it goes faster when everyone is actively playing even if it means feeding people kills.

    Was looking for the elf, but he doesn't have elf ears (just the hat with the ears attached).

    Last year you was doing a role for it.

    You try buying it?  Just to see if the ears unlocked as well?

     

    Edit: Yeah no, that doesn't work.

    Griefing is against the rules. If LO doesnt enforce this griefing is going to get bad again like back in the day.

    There really isn't any griefing in this event.  People who get into this spot pretty much always die before the event ends, so idk how its griefing.  If nut crackers are acting as a barricade, just use a Jericho to nudge them around and zerg in for the kill.

     

    Everyone trying to survive is just going about it in some cheesy way, and if people honestly learned to use their heads, they'd realize how to get back at the cheesers.  If you wanna ruin my game, its fair play for me to ruin yours.  Just how it is.

    Afew more issues you guys might want to resolve @MattScott @Lixil

     

    1. Griefing. You guys made the cars so weak that teammates are shooting up the cars on spawn making them more useless then they already are in a tiny map. The cars need a buff and GMs need to be present to curb griefing or remove the trouble makers.

    2. 0 chance of survival. Beacon is such a small map that you cant hide from anyone let alone a map with 20+ nut crackers nor run as driving is a circle and as stated above the cars are so weak they blow up instantly ( from friendly or enemy fire). Remove friendly fire and again buff cars.

    3. Chime time. 8 minutes from the point of survival? Thats usually hard to do in Financial where you have space to run and avoid enemy fire. When the chime goes off it should be more like 2 minutes to give fairies a remote chance of survival, especially for newbies who really dont know how to survive.

    1 and 2 are sorta intentional.  The Jerichos are just there for pizazz more than anything.  I can at least agree with 3 though, the event starts from 10 minutes and basically ends in 3-4 minutes, leaving most players helpless.  You can hide in places if you want though.  Its not glitching this time around, lol.

    Hey everyone,

     

    Just posting an update. We have fixes for the issues and are testing the fixes now. We are aiming to deploy a new patch at 9 AM UTC but are aiming to have it finished before that time and patch it out earlier.

     

    Thank you,

    Selali

    Yes, YES, YES!

    Doesn't even count the roles atm :s

    This should be known.  Was actually the only issue i recall being reported in play testing (besides an event not ending when nobody was in it).

     

    I do want to point out that, YES, these are play tested.  People who think otherwise need to understand that things can happen between OTW and Live updates.

    Hi all,

     

    I know this is garbage timing. The team is working as fast as they can to get things cut over.

    We will do our best to communicate timing. As of right now I don't have any extra information.

     

    Sorry,

    Matt

    So we can confirm this downtime is to do with the district changes and such?

    besides that 'if you could sign by the x', 'mailman', and 'neither snow nor rain nor heat...' are all much more difficult for enforcers to complete imo (assuming you aren't exploiting the system) 

    I might be wrong but don't those achievements also count mission task items?  I swear they did.

    At one point they were obtainable and for those who got them they show. Those who worked hard and got them should be able to have them and for those who werent around the only way to get them is if LO resurrects the event that was used to obtain them. Its something that isnt impossible to do, its all up to if LO wants to do it or not and give the chance to get them again.

    The event to get them has been around every year.  The achievements themselves are coded to unlock under certain conditions, the condition requirement for all of the old hidden achievements is Null so they're literally unobtainable except for the Anarchy achievements.

     

    It's far more logical to just get rid of them entirely or merge them into a year round achievement set.

    Alot of games have hidden achievements. TF2, Destiny 2, L4D 1 and 2, LP2 oh and there are other games on steam with achievements you cant get anymore. Firefall 
    (when it was around) L4D 2, and the youtube achievements on TF2 are impossible unless you have a following. Oh and Xbox live has hidden achievements too. All in all this is normal practice that wont be going away.

    The problem isn't hidden achievements, especially since games with hidden achievements still have them as visible, just set up as unknowns.  In APBs case, you literally wont even know about the achievement until you some how obtain it.

     

    That' wasn't my point on achievements being hidden at all however, the point was that since they exist in APB themselves, there's no point in them being on steam, you can not obtain them in any way on your own account, so they simply shouldn't exist on steam as there's absolutely no way to unlock them.
