Tiered Arena Event Feedback

Please post your constructive feedback for the Tiered Arena Event here.

 

Positive feedback:
1) Nice attempt to fix the pushing problem about Galactic Strife event. I think it will work, because players making pushing will not be able to hide.
2) It's good that rewards are split for each day and not only at the end of the event.

Negative feedback:
1) Rewards are REALLY low. 50k uridium for top 1 of the day... really? I can easily make 150k uri per hour from mimesis event. PvP events should be more rewarding that PvE events, not the opposite: like 20 times worse that playing a stupid pve event. It's supposed to be a PvP game, remember?
2) Still, every attempt for a PvP event so far since removing JPA is team based. You can do anything unless you have good clan. We still want good 1 vs 1 PvP event!
3) Spliting players into 2 different tiers but sharing the ranklist for the rewards is very very BAD idea. This often means that low players with 0 skill can win the event, just because there are only extremely weak players into their map.
Rank lists for both tiers should be different aswell, with lower rewards for the lower tier.

 

did they ever hide?

if the cards are shared, there will still be cheaters
it would be better to do 1v1 fights

 

hhhahahahah L O L

parody

 

Negative Feedback:
Players can place mines directly to the Jump Portal - which should be "forbidden" otherwhise you have no chance to flee.

Suggestion:
Instead of jumping to the middle of the Gate, make it a random spawn on the map, it shouldnt be hard rofl, MaxBoundariesX & MaxBoundariesY

 

Will there be choo choo trains in here? Not even gonna jump in unless you prevent the choo choo trains.

Tried to do BL maps and the Choo-choos own it. Amazing how fast you pop when the choo choo train passes by. Insta doesnt even help.

 

You guys just don't get it at BP still can have groups vs 1 player in the gate i guess they don't understand their own game just what does PVP stand for? 1 player vs group? so enjoy the event i was in the gate for less than 5 minutes event is over already for me so enjoy.

 

Agree, this is one of the most embarrassing stupidity event! try to jump and BOOM by a bunch of enemy waiting beyond portal...how can we enjoy an event without a starting point...CRAZINESS!

 

I didn't even get to load the grid. All I saw was "you were destroyed by xxxxxx".
Another event that should never have got past the idea stage.

Out of curiousity - This is a clan event right? Not meant for individual players/pvper's?
Otherwise, why would you let a clan (the most risk averse one on my current server) build a base right on the entry portal. Then sit and wait (on their base) for people to jump in.

A side note. The number one player on the server for this event (so far) got there by killing his own clan mates..

 

What event?

 

yall should all quit and rehire the old team from2010-14 cuz yall cant do anything right . who in their right mind came out with this event ,did they even think it through or test it? rhetorical cuz i already know yall never did ,not did you ask the players what they d want . yall need to be bought out cuz youve been running this game into the ground

 

Okay there is literally no chance alone, even me with my full equip and good modules etc. as long there is something like a teamup its a b*****it map. Add some Random spawn, add to the mid gate a range of 600 ~ 800 where mines are not allowed.

You jump in there and get instantly penetrated by the mines

Its a nice concept, but whith those named thing above players wont have any chance to get any points.

Set everyone's rank to basic space pilot, replace the names by "******", change the drone symbol position IIIIIIIIAZ -> generate a random string whilst on the map IIAZIIIIII (display that only to the surrounding players only) the user with the "IIIIIIIIAZ" will see the correct position.

Basically add the JPB Mechanics into the map with some more features. It wont take a long time to do such an change.

Add the same rules as UBA -> No Infection;

If you jump to the map add a temporary DMZ of 10 - 15 (maybe longer due to jump lags lol) seconds to get sorted while you jump.

 

most useless event since ive started this game in 2018

 

Decent pvp event but things can be improved. Mines shouldn't be able to be placed literally on top of spawn gate. Random spawn would be nice to prevent being immediately attacked by multiple players. Move CBS further from gate. I get this event favors clans but as a solo player I'd like to see either a separate gate specifically just for single pvp. With that being said, I still managed to get 3rd place the first round and 2nd place the second round just had to use literally everything I had to stand a chance against 2v1 or 3v1.

 

honestly never even bothered at all with this event because as soon as i saw it was pvp i knew instantly it is just a massive bag of crap.

 

You were lucky, when I tried again I survived jumping and getting off the portal, only to die to a 5 ship train of Citadel+'s.
DO can't stop people grouping up but they could balance things by having different instances of the event for solo players. Not everyone runs trains - PVP is supposed to be Player vs Player, not Player vs a Group controlled by one player.

Not hard to work out why the same people come out in front in events, they are designed to favour the exploiters who use 3rd party tools. Which of course aren't used in DO, right?

 

Right. So very right. Support will state they have no way of detecting multiple accounts coming from the same IP address or Input_Action from the same Input_account_location

 

Luckily I didn't come across the whole "1 player simultaneously flying several ships thing" just ran into groups of legit players who actually play by hand. One thing devs could do to improve player experience is make it so there's 2 teams (regardless of company) and every time players jump in they're assigned either team 1 or team 2 so they're sorted equally. Would eliminate instances where a single group takes over event. Only problem would be ensuring equal teams but the system could sort players according to rank or some other metric.

Overall, event concept was nice but needs improvements before being released again.

 

Not very well thought out and any semblence of "balance" seems to have been left out of the design altogether.
It needs a complete rethink IF it is to be released again.

Or DO can do what they do best - nothing relevant to improve it as an "event" ALL players can compete in.
