Ketog Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) And i thought epidemic was bad, but this event is just "shoot other people with your semi auto hohopgl" It's cool that you guys tried to add a little bit more by adding teams outfits and all, but in the end, all modes have exactly the same core concept. Im gonna be the classical "it was better before" guy, but well i think it's justified in this case. 12 Deaths of Christmas at least had a unique mechanic of the weapon switching and felt actually fun and dynamic. here you just see mass of people following a VIP and melting them down as the role passes from player to player while struggling with the shooting delay of the hohopgl. It feels clunky, unfinished and slow. Those modes should have been there in addition of the old ones, not to replace them. -Daily activities aren't counted -The VIP gamemode is broken -The achivements/roles don't progress -People have terribly low framerates in the district -When 3 instances are full other players just can't enjoy the event anymore because the server doesn't create any more instances; This event is just an absolute mess, and that's ignoring that citadel is still hosted in NA...

SKOCHO Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 also this game mode is really buggy. we can't attack anyone except the "VIP" we're supposed to protect somehow? And i'm prompted to "Take down" the vip i'm supposed to be a bodyguard for. don't forget the: "?INT?Minimgames.Objectives.Generic_ObtainKill?" at the top of the screen. Was this playtested at all?

This type of minigame is not supposed to be running. The server is starting up the wrong type of Snowball Fight minigame. Thats also why the UI and the gameplay is completely broken. 2

People who think otherwise need to understand that things can happen between OTW and Live updates. Edited December 23, 2019 by SkittyM 2

So i hope they will fix this fast, otherwise there is no point in playing it when people can't unlock the rewards/roles properly. Edited December 23, 2019 by Fumiku
foscor77 Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 i would pretty much prefer the old 12 death xmas event ;/ Or just let us use usual guns anyhow. hohopgl is super boring to use. 2 1
Salvick Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 To me this is more concerning tbh: Aren't we getting rid of all that stuff?

Me too, as stupid as it sounds but I do enjoy spending hours playing death xmas event during christmas holidays, for couple of years till this year 1
Raichu Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) I wish they still used the 12 deaths of christmas event, it was my favourite event this game has had. It is very hard to survive the halloween event in the small beacon map. They should have at least tweaked it to make it possible like lowering the time needed to survive instead of completely copy pasting an event designed for a big map, and I really want the weapon skin Also the filler snowball fight event has no time limit so you get soft locked into a never ending match if one side leaves.

What the fu... How did you even managed to run it?! Also I wonder how it is possible to survive 15 minutes on beacon as fairy. I foresee fucking frustration.
yood Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) he who does nothing is not mistaken . simple player has a chance to make a mistake, developers do not have the right to make a mistake . Edited December 30, 2019 by yood
Acornie Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) I'm going have to agree with you, this event isn't very fun. It's yet another new event where snowball weapons are the only guns, I just cannot find this event fun with these guns; I like that the new event is not long and drawn out rounds, but it's too short and too cramped putting this in Beacon. If this replaced default snowball fight and rotated with 12 Deaths it'd maybe be bearable, but I'm going to have to give this Christmas Event 2019 a stinky out of 10 Edited December 24, 2019 by Acornie

I posted about this in the main topic already but long story short dont expect to get the survival title and what goes with it as LO literally made it more impossible then 100 kills as a survivor.
Bubush Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 LO needs to find some experts to fix the game and improove everything, from security anti cheating to performance and new content! This game have alot of potential, its sad that noone take care of it!
Nickolai Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 As much as I applaud Little Orbit in their efforts to make this game great again, I am starting to have my doubts. If this is the quality of events and modes that we will get in the future I am really concerned.
TheRomantic Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 Event full shit! Last year, with the regime, the master of weapons for the new year was far better. Then there was really some kind of challenge, and now you have to shoot and hope the snowflake hits someone.

Lmao. I just turned game off - I got survivor achievement after 3rd try. Although on big chunk of luck since I was in like 8 fights but neverthless I survived.

If you got whole server which agrees to avoid nutcracker prince, then it's way easier. Then I even survived while doing Naughty List (where I didn't focused about surviving but more on kills). But yeah, I hate achievements based on randomness of situation - we already got this shit with Assault Autumn too and in Halloween (which we all know Christmas event is copy-pasta off). Plus i'm pretty sure I'm in upper 50% of playerbase when it comes to handling snowballs - so what about that lower 50%?... Edited December 25, 2019 by Mitne

Raichu Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 After playing it a couple of days since the hotfix the event is not THAT bad, still far worse than 12 deaths though. The most annoying thing about this event I think is having to go through the filler snowball fight every time that you get nothing for before you can continue progressing with the actual event.
