Defibrillator 132 Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) This is going to be a lengthy thread and i apologize for it. If you wanna go through what i am about to say, just skip the initial 2 paragraphs and keep reading. I am really glad that Little orbit has been putting up an event for 4th of july and i am really thankful for that. We know that you have a lot of things in your hand and tryna communicate the best you can. Trying to retain the existing players, bringing back the old players this can only be done with new content and you know it better than anyone. Bringing new content is not easy as the engine which the game runs on is nearly a decade old and there are a lot of fixes to be done for it to be upgraded to unreal 3.5 or more. Players jus pile up when there is something new in the game, let it be an anticheat, let it be the autumn assault event,epidemic event. Sorry i dont know about riot, cuz i havent played it even once. I have seen some of my old frnds popping up during this events and changes in apb. There have been numerous events which have been held by G1 in the past before Little orbit took over the game, which havent been played by most of the newbies and it would be a something new for the old players to try it out as well. A small reward could make both the old and new player who havent played it happy. The reward doesnt have to be of monetary value like G1c or premium, a car etc. It can be something as simple as a couple hundred joker tickets, title( I am not sure how long does it take to make a new one), 3day trial weapons, mystery boxes (santa or valentine boxes, mystery boxes a and b), ingame cash ( Maybe i am wrong..but why not?), gear selector, weapon skin selector etc. Some of the events which have been held by G1 in the past: 1. Global Conflict event: The rules are very simple, just kill as much as you can with any weapon, in any district, on any server. If you all can hit the target kill numbers then every participant gets the prize, a special bonus prize if you can get 3 million kills. The best part is…Every. Kill. Counts. Prizes were : weapon skin selector, 5 day premium and g1c prizes link: https://steamcommunity.com/app/113400/discussions/0/617320628065155673/ 2. Butcher event (mini game) and drug mule: The event starts randomly with the weapon( grenade launcher with 600 nades iirc) is placed somewhere on the map..players are supposed to find it and kill other players to retain the gun for a while (i dont remember the number of days), I cant remember about the drug mule event.. could someone help me out? 3. Finding the dev (Magallan): A dev would appear in the map for a few seconds..The first person to find him wins prizes like jokerboxes, consumables etc. https://steamcommunity.com/games/113400/announcements/detail/820028300013842773 4. Faceoff with mattscott: I am sure that you would remember this event. It can be found here 5. Get kills get paid event: Earn G1C for every unique kill per day, if you kill a unique player with a featured weapon, you get a bonus point. It was limited to 100 kills iirc. link : https://steamcommunity.com/app/113400/discussions/0/648811852749044556 6. Chaos contract matches: You get 3 G1C for every mission you win on action district and you get bonus g1c if you played a certain number of matches. link : https://steamcommunity.com/games/113400/announcements/detail/1856913217237119112 There were some more events like this in the past, which could be bought back again so that it could be a change for the new players and could possibly bring back the old players. Any suggestion or feedback is welcome. Edited July 3, 2019 by Defibrillator added links Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vsb 6171 Posted July 3, 2019 i had hoped orbit understood the issues with events like this, considering they’ve been pointed out during/after every other similar event -short notice -weekday -specific time -specific district -skill/rng-based mechanics -repeat winners -the base game is still broken all of these factors combine to discourage or outright prevent players from taking part, leading to an event that (if following the pattern of similar past events) leads to more frustration and anger than happy fun staff-player bonding more frustration and anger is the opposite of what this playerbase needs, just in case that wasn’t obvious this trend of acknowledging feedback but then blasting ahead regardless is getting really old really fast and judging by this thread i’m not the only one who feels this way 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was finally taken down. It was supposed to be taken down 3 months after new one came out so I'm suprised it survived that long.
