I have had an issue finding group hunts for a long time now. Certain days and times are impossible. It’s been this way for a while now for many vets, because we have done everything there is to do, and at some point we’ve built all that we want to build, and another point is that being part of some guilds and cities, it’s in vain to build something nice, because they always completely change it, and you no longer want to be part of it. Finding a group when you want to hunt, is really hard. This event will mean more groups out and about, and hopefully increase players playing. It’s an mmo, but too many ppl try to force it to be a solo game. It can only solo so far. Otherwise just play Angry Birds.
This event being forced to group up, I believe is the dev;s attempt to have an event where it’s worth grouping up for. There is nothing in the game that truly promotes groups. There actually needs to be however.
Regular meteors give more in loot mainly in resources that are already easy to get. I have more meat and animal parts I could ever use in a lifetime of the game. I get more ores from mining than I do hunting. I have a buttload of shards.
Do you guys have a better idea that gives people a reason to group up and increase the mmo function of the game, that doesn’t kick off every solo players anger? Players have suggested instances and dungeons, and pvp, but those all, for the most part are not solo events. So will any idea of uniting players together get shot down with sadness like this one did?
As far as this event, I don’t like the timer on getting half the blocks destroyed. I don’t see a need for it. It just adds a unneeded chance to lose the special gleam, when everyone at a hunt is already dedicated to not lose the meteor thus wasting all their buffs and energy. Why add a timer to possibly nullify that there is a special event? Not sure the timer helps force larger groups or not.
I have now actually been taking a break until there is some content that is more involved. More mmo like. Just building something and waiting for ppl to come by and say “wow”, has worn off after a couple years of it. I need Hunters, and more mobs to kill. A reason to group and survive. I loathe pvp in the form of corp. greed. Makes me ill.
I welcome anything that breaks up what’s been the norm.
That has happened to us all me and my buddy spawned on lamblis to start we spent a lot of time digging before we were able to even effectively kill the mobs now i 1 shot most mobs on t3 worlds
because the rainbow meteorites come so far from where the region is discovered? all the metrotites go very far and without taking into account mountains, rivers or even lava, I do not understand why, the normal meteorites come out well and close, what difference is there? and because you have done so far is difficult with the countdown and it is necessary 2 people, I do not understand why so much difficulty, for new people is almost impossible, I being a veteran I have a hard time arriving so I imagine a beginner how hard it is done, so I think this event is only for veterans
me neither i dont own my hub and city lol
was to busy to install decent footfall systems and i leveled super slow lolz
but being me does have benefits not gonna lie lol
Just had my first experience with the event (large regular hunt that also included 3 gleambow meteors), here is my feedback:
- Good base idea: cool way to introduce new blocks, limited access for even the more successful racers means trade will be encouraged.
- Needs better inclusion: Race is fine to give the fastest players best access to the blocks, but there should be event-specific rewards for everyone who participates. These could be done via the meteor loot box or drops from gleambow cuttletrunks. The most obvious would be a few blocks of event-specific gleam, but a gleambow currency or crafting ingredient that could be used to make special gleambow items would be excellent as well.
- More event swag: The unicorn horn is good, but a few more hats and a body paint or two would have been nice, especially if they were purchasable/craftable with items from participating in gleambow races as mentioned above.
So I feel this event is poorly implemented. For someone that doesn’t have the gear and/or skill build to be able to race across the surface of a planet, always being the last one to arrive at a meteor during hunts, it makes me feel left out. As a result, I just finished running a hunt with a group of folk. Got a whole lot of monster drops as you’d expect from a meteor hunt. … On the flipside? Absolutely NO gleam from it. Why? Because by the time I’d get to the impact site of the meteor everyone else has already completely consumed the meteor and left nothing behind before moving off to the next one. It would be nice if the so-called shared loot inside a completed gleambow meteor would include a few pieces of gleam just so people like myself don’t get the shaft. Thanks.
You go straight for the blocks. The creatures are only there to distract you and attempt to drag you away from the meteor. Breaking enough blocks within the time limit is what flags the meteor as complete and allows you to collect whatever blocks are left.
Well, whoever you all were that I just served as mob bait for on Cephonex Merika, you’re welcome.
I wasn’t even trying to find one, and both a gleambow meteor and a few players following it came out of nowhere right in front of me. Lucky for them, as I decided to go in for a few whacks too, the cuttletrunks with the pulse beams seemed to all zero in on me. The others were happily chopping away still as I got flung up in the air repeatedly and died, lol.
Ok i say it here. I was wrong.
After patch dropped that ables soloing.
This event is really good.
Havent been doing anything else than this after
Solo patch.
