DiBBz Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 so right now in game for the xmas event the "Ho Ho Ho achievement 2018" to put it simply is extremely difficulty if not impossible to do. not in the sense that santa boxes are not dropping or what have you. but the fact the game is just soo starved of population that most couldn't really give 2 F's about either partaking in the achievement or helping others progress the achievement. @MattScott this isnt me taking digs at bad design. i completely understand why its meant to be like this as it has been like ever other year with the santa boxes. but with such a low pop and barely any interest either because they have done it themselves or people are in the same situation i am which i feel is a very very small minority. they cant 100% complete the event. wouldn't it be more fitting to allow santa boxes to be opened by their owner ? because as it has standard played for 2 days and found 0 interest in people dropping santa boxes. its just food for thought for future events. regards -DiBBz 2

Jazeker Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 It's true that is was more easy to complete back then though. Being able to open these yourself for the time being might be a good idea. 8 8
Yoss Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 I did it in a day of actually trying... It isn't that hard. 1

Latsha Posted December 22, 2018 Posted December 22, 2018 I did that achievement. I was very proud because I knew I was one of the first people who completed it. But the rewards gave me a bad aftertaste. Turns out S1-FA is a zero slot gun, along with CASE "The Bolo". If I knew that before I'd probably just pick that other variant of the raptor because this is just useless. I really thought these guns would be 3-slotted if previous years' guns were also 3 slotters. It would be actually good if they gave us at least one slot because right now these guns will just be cluttering my contact weapon shop and I would never buy them. 1

Zolerox Posted December 22, 2018 Posted December 22, 2018 Find a friend and just offer "1 of my boxes for one of yours" keep in mind kills while you are "bounty" counts the achievement is quite farm able.
safdfsgkjhdgsjkhs Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 i completed mine on 3 characters yesterday.,...
Akito Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 the fact that you need to organize a boosting team to get achievements makes the achievement itself ironically dumb

Akito Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 3 minutes ago, CookiePuss said: What just play the game normally, its easy. what about achievements that cant even be attained anymore but are still there?........ so play the game normally, its easy? sure, ok
foscor77 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 this achievement is very tough to do on Jericho cuz of it has only 1/ 3 of the population as compared to citadel and dont even let me mention how dead jericho is in non-prime hours when us asians get the time to play.....i havent even played snowball event on frosty finan cuz its always dead. Please think about us too @MattScott make some special npc civilian characters who carry these boxes and will drop them when mugged or killed or something or increase the amount of boxes you can get from the event as i played for 1 hour and only got 6 boxes....wtf And the rewards suck too....why only titles? why not exploit some other reward options to make events more rewarding like in-game rewards of $50k on completion of achievement or role? or exotic themes or just simple cars or lvl2 or lvl3 gun/car/character mods? you may not realise but rewards are like fuels to event. even if you give shitty event tasks but the rewards are good or unique then people will still play them for sure.

It is after all an MMO, so working with others is gonna be a thing. As far as "achievements that cant even be attained anymore but are still there", I have no idea what you mean.

NikkiCasinoKnows Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 yup but its only the date and a steam only thing #1stpriority
