Nordenwatch Weekend Event

[ShadowWalker]

It has been awhile since I posted - probably over a year. However, I was a bit surprised that to see that you must participate in the Nordenwatch scenario 20 times to complete the weekend event, so I felt the need to post. Typically, the participation count is ten, which seems reasonable. Twenty is just too many times, in my opinion. If you get four or five SC pops in an hour, it will take a half day to complete the SC event. Please consider reducing the participation count back to ten. I feel that number is much more in line. Besides, who wants to spend an entire Summer weekend gaming? I enjoy RoR, but I enjoy life too.

Dont worry 25 kills on each flag might take more than 20 games

probably to test the new "pug event scenario"

Dalen noticed the issue with the tasks needed and he adjusted them.

Yes the kill tasks are a bit skewed too. For order technically you’ll need to be pushed back to lighthouse to even get the kill count up which is a bit counter intuitive. If you’re playing well that shouldn’t even happen which makes the task harder to complete.

its reverted back to pug queue only

Yes. Unfortunately what happened was a simple miscommunication between myself and the devs, which we tried to fix but it required more work than expected, on top of a server restart.

The Weekend Warfront SC will remain in its current state (pug sc queue and hard tasks) until the server restarts, hopefully Saturday morning - can't be sure about the hour yet. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for the transparency, will the warfront be extended for a day or two?
Also on a not so related note. any official word on why the server has not had any patches for two weeks? The timing seems a little odd based on the many big moves on the MMO market. Any upcoming teaser, or simply just summer for the devs?

It was still playable by everyone technically, as long as they don't join as groups of 3+. I don't believe it'll be extended, I don't see there's a need for it since the tasks can be done - they'll be easier once the Live Event is updated.

A mixture of both I'd say. The devs are still working but could be taking some weekend breaks as well. We're still on track though imo and there will be some action again very soon.

Honestly Nordenwatch was much easier to complete than Thunder Valley (the need to win the game with all 5 caps could only be done when your team stomped) or Stonetroll Crossing (which sapped my desire to live).
