at least the snow meteors arent gleamballs, i feel those are sort of eh because if i have 30 of some blocks and need 200+ its not really like it feels like a win. .it feels like a chore at that point.
heck like when black gleam was going for 5k that wasnt fun for players like me… that was just eh whatever i can get a couple of pieces of gleam i cant do anything with so just dont bother.
discourse already has a calendar system that would at least let people post events and have it show up on a page on the forums with out needing a player or 3rd party to create anything.
certainly an option for people for sure - thanks for sharing… personally I try to stick with in-game features because it keeps the immersion going. I haven’t talked about the bulletin board in 1.5 years with them… probably would be a while anyway because of the current likely release of next 2-3 updates…
I for one am with @xyberviri we need a central place for keeping this info and where people can provide when they plan to do hunts and to help keep hunts from overlapping. I myself have seen this causing some drama in the community and to keep the drama and infighting down this makes sense to do. Because some people can be down right mean with noobs or those that havent ran hunts just making a mistake. This causes people to quit when folks get rude or snippy and it is not fair to someone who simply made a mistake. Let’s face it no one really owns a time like @xyberviri said already and you catch more flys with honey.
Discord is great but not everyone uses it for various reasons and let’s face it with discord there are like 10 different places to put hunt times and they dont all always have all the hunt info. ATM @xyberviri solution is the only place that it seems to be publicly synced and I support this solution out of any other suggestion because let’s face it discord isnt the best because as I said not everyone uses it.
I am working with @xyberviri to put it on a domain to give ease of access to people in the community who dont use google or gmail.
This should alleviate all the animosity over this is my time blahs blahs blah and keep people from getting unnecessarily snarky with people.
Loved the idea from moment one @xyberviri great thinking bro!
that contacts idea sounds pretty cool, and adding the ability to send some sort of expiring message to a schedule section would solve the problem perfectly while providing a in game solution.
I would totally love to see something like that, heck honestly i would love to see some sort of bulletin board that allows me to send message as a precursor to missions.
Maybe let me pin locations to it too and have people copy the location from it.
Youre talking basically the boundless version of this right?
but i think the devs are on the “soon™” schedule so im not going to hold my breath, until then ill maintain a calendar of events i hear about(at least ill try) so that people that arent on the game or forums 24/7 can just look some where and get a list…
also again its important to mention that people shouldn’t cancel events just because someone says they are running another event at a specific time.
No one owns any time slot, if a person continues to bother anyone over “time slots” im pretty sure thats harassment.
ill be working with dragon @DragonTamer on something slightly less soon™
Yes. I saw it as a 2x3 wall piece that was the interface to the global system so you didn’t have to go to another’s board. It would have included contracts, calendar, messages and a bunch of other things.
“Soon” is primarily an issue because of the main focus they have - does it draw more people to the game or fix core existing issues. We aren’t going to get others to quit on game and play this one because of this feature. And I just haven’t proved enough “QOL” or stop people from leaving game because of this feature like I helped around settlement fixes and other things. In time but certainly don’t hold breath… like I said I think the likely upcoming things are much more important. But, I’m not giving up on this because I think the game play it does add or help facilitate for other things - like sports leagues, challenges, etc - is worth it.
If you have any other suggestions or stuff please post on that other thread so we don’t I guess take this too far off topic. lol.
I see why this is done but this is not healthyfor the game that 3 Or 4 Guilds run the show… I think that just increases players To abandoning the game.
