    2021 - Frost Zephyr

    Pathetic

    All the lasers are now gamble-only (bp boxes). They replaced the dev that worked on prom lasers and made them craftable with the devil himself, right in time for Christmas. Happy Hanukkah :S
     
  4. Frozen gg is a bit too crowded, good thing there are lots of modules, sad part is this battle pass is without asmodeus or odysseus laser.

    Please do something about the auto-locking botters in the Frozen Labyrinth. It's difficult to get keys if you can't shoot NPCs. Well, you can't get keys if they're hogging all the aliens. It's nearly impossible to get keys because of the AFK auto-locking warriors! They're wiping them out. I'm talking GONE.
    Please send mods or something into the labyrinth to get these players. It's not fair to those of us with integrity.
    Thank you!


    As in past years, keys are at a premium. You can't purchase a huge lot of them, the boxes and NPC's, if you can get one, are stingy, and
    I don't see the ability to craft them like in the past.
    The Respawn clock still isn't counting down like it used to.
    The Iceterion mines are blowing out the HP when you're well past the wake.
    Blah, blah, blah, same old stuff as last year, the year before and the year before. Nobody does anything to fix or improve things.
    @Malaikat - why are you even asking for feedback when nothing ever changes because of it?

  6. In the current event they would have put the galactic door of the frozen labyrinth, the tone of the client of the year 2010 would have been great

    The event boxes inside the gate have always been quite rubbish and ought to be better.

    Where are all the keys?????
    Someone forgot to load the Frozen Labyrinth keys!
    I've been shooting what few aliens I can target before the auto-locking botters get them for over an hour and haven't gotten ONE key. NOT. ONE.
    And there hasn't been one booty box on this map. NOT ONE.
    How am I supposed to go map to map to get the synk if there are no
    bleeping keys? And how do I get back all my wasted ammo from shooting
    aliens you forgot to load up with keys.
    But at least the useless SR-5 rockets are still coming. I have over 11k of them from past events. But I'm guessing I haven't even come close to gathering as many keys over the years.
    If you're not going to do something about the auto-locking bots, at least load up the keys!
    FIX THIS!!!!!

    I have 300+ keys from casually doing the labyrinth for 1-2hrs a day. No idea what that guy is on about. It's easy as pie to get keys. Boxes also give keys.
     
  12. Just an event full of botters, the team does nothing against them

    For you it may be easy as pie, but for others, it isn't. Your experience isn't everyone's experience.
    I'm not in the labyrinth to farm rewards, I'm there to chase the synk, which requires keys. I don't have time to spend endless hours shooting NPC's. My time frame is three minutes long between spawns. I highly doubt if you had to do this three minutes at a time, praying for that 1 IM you can shoot to give you two keys, you might have a different perspective.

    I'm crushed. It's Christmas day and traditionally, DO has Christmas present booty boxes. I haven't found a single one. And the cargo boxes used to be decorated with candy canes. Did someone forget? Wow. This is the first time since I started playing there weren't present booty boxes. Unbelievable. Seriously, I feel so cheated on this.
    @Malaikat Where are the christmas booty boxes? For real?

    Here's some positive feedback, because I feel it's only right to give credit where credit is due:

    After three or four years of asking this to be fixed, for the first time in years, the respawn clock in the synk icon finally
    started counting down again between spawns. It's helpful to know exactly when the next synk will spawn in case you need
    to take a quick break to grab a drink and a snack. Here's hoping it continues to work for the remaining bouts.

    Now if DO would please do something about the Iceterion mines draining HP when you're well past the blast zone, the auto-locker AFK warriors, and update the title, like add a year at the end of Elite Marksman, that'd be great. But small steps, I guess.

    Skill issue, lol. You must be the only one struggling. You've got bigger issues than Synk if you can't even get a key to leave the home map.

    I can easily farm 5-10 keys in under 3 minutes. Had no problems doing that with a barely FE ship last December, too.

    Those were replaced with birthday event boxes and you should have read the FAQ to know when they were on. They were never booty boxes. They're bonus boxes.

    That's the Halloween cargo boxes, for whatever reason.

    This is likely lag. The blast radius isn't broken.
     
  16. you do know that it depends on the server and how populated it is ?gb 1 ( now ge5 is dead as hell ) so of course you'll get keys easily. try that on mx1, ga1, ga2 etc. it's full of bots, if the first map you jump is is full of bots, you wont get them that quickly. how are yall so narrow-sighted?
