Re: Mystery Portal : Party time
As stated earlier here despite the situation that the game is no longer getting full-fledged DLC the fact that the game is still being played and they make these multiplayer events means that these issues need to be fixed. That we have this issue under these conditions several times means that this is a known issue and has been known for awhile and should be fixed. With the recent login issues we've had on top of this it makes it even worse.
I had no issues with the event but my PC is a beast and since I had 50 rainbow stars banked and spent several regular stars to round out buying the chests and banking 50 for the next event meant I didn't have to play all that many rounds and got them all in Friday night.
The worst part about this is that the event should have been fun for the community and not a lagfest for most of the community. While the events have been hit or miss, mostly hit luckily, this one should have been a hit but reading the comments here and on the FB group it was mostly miss.
As someone that loves this game, both GW games really, I hate to see this kind of thing happen as it is discouraging for people and reinforces the 'maintenance mode' mentality that is prevalent here. With the new game being a mystery and I'm sure the recent controversy over the BF2 loot boxes has had an effect on the game's still obfuscated development, we can only play what we have now and I don't want to lose even more people. You are still selling upgrade packs and coins for the game so while I'm sure that revenue is down from the game's heyday it deserves attention.
