    I know this has been suggested before but something really needs to be done to improve the Crazy Cube event. I'm not talking about the almost unplayable levels of lag, I am talking about making a change to prevent <insert word of choice> players from ruining the event by just shooting the cube until it pops.

    The point is to pop the prots using kami (even though support have stated the intended use of kami isn't to destroy npcs yet devs provide us with a glitch event to do just that) so why not increase the cubikon hp by a massive amount so people who know what they are doing actually have a chance to get more than 1 or 2 kamis off before the hoard of fools descend and create utter ruination. Either that or give it insta-shield.

    Again I know this has already been suggested but it annoys me every time I try to take part and it just turns out to be a waste of time.

    It's too easy for this event to be spoiled with the way it's currently set up and the lag makes it barely playable at best.

    Please consider either making Crazy Cubes an actual event rather than the glitch it was born from or just remove it completely.

    Completely agree, tired of idiot people ruining the event. A change is needed so that the people who know what to do can actually make thier profit off the event.

  5. Sounds good to me, but i don't bother with the event on GA1 as 20 ppl shoot the cube and the lag is WAY off the charts.
     
  6. Oh God, selfish are we? please stop the players from popping cubes? dude, its a npc, if you dont want it to get popped, then shoot the player til they stop. Its not fair to ask that these players not shoot the cube simply because u are trying to build up uri easier.

    But I will say this, I think they cubes should have double the HP and Shield during this event. This will indeed slow down the destruction of the cube, but it will not deter players from trying to pop it.

    There's nothing selfish about wanting to keep the cube alive during cc event. The longer the cube stays on the map the more prots there are and the more uri available for everybody.

    Selfishness is not my motive here and if you actually knew me as a player you wouldn't even think about suggesting that. Why pop the cube for less than a hundred uri when you can get 10 times that with one kami if done correctly?

  8. If its possible I would like to see -=[ Cubikon ]=- being Invincible on this Crazy Cubikon event. It will help a lot of people who are trying to make some Uridium and Ruin the ruiner themselves by wasting their Ammos. :) :p

    Well i think this event should be removed, because the lag is unbelievable +the players shooting the cube. Tbh i dont see a point of CC anymore and i really hope that DO start thinking of a new and a better event to replace it with.

  10. Make the 2 left side cubes normal with normal amount of prots, cubes on right side make invincible during event with the crazy cube amount of prots.

    This seems like a reasonable compromise that would still allow players who want to cube to do so while keeping the hoard smashing away on the invincible cubes to their hearts content.

    BP claim that they listen to feedback and act on it. I hope they notice that not a single response here has been that cc event is fine as it is and that it should be left alone.

  12. i did come up with an idea a few months back do you remember the other cube bug as soon as you pop 1 another re-spawns change it to that cube pops another re-spawns and you still get loads of prots lag should drop cos of less prots 2 i hope
     
  13. Try using Maxthon Cloud Browser. Have found that this improves fps greatly & reduces lag.

    Also, I believe Astraea stated that this has been tested to be the best browser for this game.
     
  14. cos the game was based on it aka used to make the game but it still don't fix the problem but the main prob is popping cubes on the event
     
  15. It is just a matter of who turns up to do CCs & when the event is on.

    There have been occasions that I have made s little as 30k urid due to players popping the cube. However, on occasions I have made well over double that amount - best I think is 107k urid.

    The issue is that you cannot stop other players from doing what they want. Not all players have premium & can use the kami.

    Maybe a better alternative would be to change the kami itself. Examples are ...

    1) Increase Splash Damage.

    2) Introduce a Cool-Down Booster for it.

    3) Just reduce the Cool-Down for it altogether - maybe go as far as having this for CC Events only.
     
  16. Again, look at what you are saying... you are upset because YOU cannot get the max benefit of CC.... and that isnt selfish? Im not trying to bad mouth you. And if I come across as such, then I apologize, but to request something to change so that YOU the player can get more out of it is actually selfish to some extent. Some players dont realize that killing a cube during CC doesnt give a diff pay out. I have seen that plenty of times in east 2, where players think that by destroying the cube, they will get extra pay out. Also lets not forget that not every player has uri or premium to use Kami on prots. Also, during the CC event, that may be the only time that they can benefit from destroying a cube considering that there are several players attacking it.

    Look, I dont fault you for being upset when other players attack the cube when you are trying to get the most out of it by popping the prots. Yes it is frustrating when you are trying to get things from an event and players decide to disrupt it. BUt I just have to disagree and say that its part of the game. And sadly, even if you had 2 cubes on one side that are CC and the other two that are not, these same players will come and shoot it anyway. So instead of asking for a change, maybe we should just be a little accepting of what comes with the territory of playing these events. The same thing could be said of people who are destroying super iceys and a player comes and pops them right before the icey is almost dead and then that player in turn gets the cred. Its part of the game. People will do what they want in this game, and events are no different. Sometimes we just have to adjust to things.

    Maxthon isnt very good, that was one of the first browsers last year that I tried to use in order to reduce lag, but its no different. MIght I suggest Comodo Dragon Browser, this was suggested to me by support. It lags, but not as much as the other browsers.

    I suggest you re-read what I said.

    I am not upset because "I" can't get the max benefit. On the rare occasion that I join for cc event I usually log out after a few minutes because it's just not worth the time for me. I don't need to even bother with the event but often I will do it with some clan members who don't have prem so I can help THEM get some uri.

    Again, if you actually knew me as a player you would not be suggesting I was being selfish.

    I do understand your point about those players wanting to destroy the cube as it's the only chance they will have but being realistic that's not the case. There's enough of them that they could outfit together and take down cubes together outside of the event.

    You said let's not forget about players that don't have uri or prem. Well, to be honest cc event is not the event for them but if it was done correctly then they would have a chance to actually make uri since you can get more from 1 kami than it costs to repair the pet.

    What reason would the players using kami on the indestructable cubes have for going to shoot the normal cubes?

    As .-ŚìζvєŖ†βuζζєT-. points out it really depends who is on at the time. I have seen it where players stop attacking when the cube get low hp and leaves it to rep. At times like this EVERYONE makes more uri than when the cube is just popped within 1 or 2 kamis time.

    My suggestion is that they update the event to make it work better since, let's be honest, the entire "event" was simply the result of a random glitch that rather than punish those who abused it was turned into this so-called "crazy cube" event so everyone would have a chance to take part.

    There's been a couple of points raised here that would help improve the event. My request for change was not born out of selfishness but a desire to reduce the disharmony that this event causes by the people who don't know what they are doing.

    Many people get so annoyed that they will destroy those players that are ruining the event. That's not really helping anyone (except BP cos more wars = more $ for them.) All those problems could be avoided if they just updated the event

    You don't even need to shoot the cube to send in a kami; just make sure you are being hit, have the cube locked and activate kami. Too many players just sit there hitting the cube waiting for their kami to activate. That would be fine if they left it to repair when it got low hp but people just keep sending in kami as there's only 1 cube left on the map and if they don't someone else will.
     
  18. Ok then, what do you propose? Make the cube indestructible during the event? And I apologize for saying you were selfish, but the statement itself in its origin is a selfish statement, not meaning that you are, but the statement itself is lol. Or my opinion. But maybe the cube should be indestructible, that was no one will kill the cube and everyone can use the prots.

    Apology accepted although I still disagree with your opinion about my statement. Perhaps it wasn't worded in a way to accurate convey my motive but let's move past that now. As I mentioned in the OP either increase the hp of the cube (improvement) or give the cube insta-shield (permanent solution.)

    CptCooter™ suggested making 2 of the cubes normal and 2 invincible. I believe this would be a good compromise as players who still wanted to pop cubes would be able to while players that want to get as much uri as they can from the prots are also able to. That is a win/win for all players as far as I can see.

    RΣŦÙЯП-ΦF-§ŦЯЇŇG§HØŦ restarted an idea he suggested before of making cubes respawn instantly. Although this would improve the situation I still think players would destroy cubes, perhaps even more so. This might not necessarily be a bad thing.

    Perhaps a combination of the 2 ideas would really make this event stand out on its own and not just some random glitch thrown in as a permanent feature.

    2 Crazy cubes that cannot be popped and 2 normal cubes that respawn instantly. In this case I still think the 2 normal cubes should spawn the crazy amounts of prots but have same hp/shield as they currently do.

    If anybody has other suggestions it would be good to hear them. I was watching some darkorbit videos the other day and cc must have been on at the time. It's amusing yet sad to see the chat filled with anger about people popping the cubes. Perhaps if enough people get behind this call for change something might be done to make it better for us.

    The faster people can progress in the game the more likely they are to stick around and possibly bring their friends to play. More players, more fun, more $ for the company. It's not rocket science.
     
  20. I 'paid' for the right to own' said 'cube' to pop as many prots as 'I' want. The free players just pop the cube :mad: Now go get and the use the kami twice with that reward from the Crazy Cube - lol :rolleyes: :p
