Fireworks Thread - Overflow and Achievement issues
RoostaGW2
Sat on Underworld server, saw fireworks (whilst /sleep).
No achievement etc…
Are you sure you didn’t see the fireworks that people can launch? Culling could have made it look like nobody was there but you would still see the fireworks.
No fireworks in the overflow. /sadface
no ach in henge of denravi, noone is getting it
ANET its 12 am where I’m at, am waiting for the event. please tell us now if its broken, so that I can sleep.
Will even if it is not, the next one is not supposed to start in 2 hours, so I would say go to sleep. You have the whole weekend to complete the achievement.
Not the best answer when they said it starts at 9 A.M. Reset the servers and fireworks so the players can get their achievement.
Fireworks went off in Yak’s. No one got the achievement when they stopped 20 min later.
I am currently sitting idle in devonas rest at the firework show and, it not starting? I would like to know why. Is it some sort of bug or is anet to lazy to flip the switch? Half the people on the server are still waiting as well.
Was sitting in an EU overflow 10 minutes before it started. Fireworks appeared. No acheivement.
same here..didnt happen
Over and over for years – since the beginning of GW – I’ve constantly seen people have problems with time and time conversion and complain about it for some reason. Why and how? We all obviously have internet access. It takes just a minute one time to find out what the time difference is between where you are and PDT/PST (or, less time than it takes to write a post about it). Then all you have to do is remember. It’s not very difficult. I’m two hours ahead of Bellevue, Washington. I have been for the past eight years. I automatically convert stated start times of things to my time upon first read without getting all confused.
Just got the achievement in an overflow server, still no fireworks though lol.
Hasnt triggered on GH either.
Gues ill try again in an hour.
Maybe the fireworks are on the way to LA… we may have to escort the transport bull from bandits.

why have you forsaken us anet? why!
Thank you Anet for ruining your Dragon Bash by failing to do the one thing we are all waiting to see……Fireworks and soon……burning up effigies…..or will you forget to burn the effigies too?
:( Shame……
Nice waste of 45 minutes. Thanks for being professional.

Because american timezones are a bit more awkward to work out when you live on the other side of the world. I know all the time differences around europe but I dont know them for america.

Well, the thing is that the fireworks HAVE been there on several servers (most likely those not in overflow got it) and there would be no real reason for them to kitten up their schedule as long as they fix it before the next appearance.

We are hearing rumors that overflow got the fireworks, and the gifts. Is this true?

I arrived to LA 15 min early, ended up in an overflow server waited for 25 min after is should have begun, nothing, no show, no achievement, nothing. Now I get to spend two hours waiting for the next show since I made into the “real” world. =(
no fireworks on henge of denravi either q_q
Same here on Devonas Rest, I was waiting with my popcorn and everything. And nothing happens. }-(
Interesting!! We all show up for fireworks…and get nothing. I’ve been in two overflows on yak’s bend. Be nice if GW staff had something to say…and update maybe. Or do we all just stand here for hours on end and experience nothing??

Can we get some input? A bunch of others and myself have work and various other things to do, I can’t spend time just waiting with no heads up how long.

Well, I watch the full show of firework and no achievement. It’s bugged or not started yet ?

And people are unable to use the very name of the timezone posted in the schedule and convert that to their own time?
There are hundreds of sites that can do that.

They told me that the anet fireworks guy will also be in charge of the 4th of july fireworks in dc.

45 minutes? It hasn’t even been 30 minutes yet.

Wouldn’t it be a better use of the dev’s time to work on fixing it and then posting about it?
no fireworks for the last 28min ring of fire la overflow
no fireworks on sfr.
Nothing in blackgate, either. :/
No Fireworks in DR, 928. But we are hearing rumors that overflow got to see fireworks and got the gift. True?

Sounds like some overflows did. Mine did not.

Public Relations and Developers are different. Public Relations rep should be the one posting while the devs work.
I’m very surprised that they have let it go on this long without saying a peep……it doesnt make any sense to not at least have someone on the forums right now letting everyone know whats happen.
Well, maybe you should buy yourself one. Because the fireworks weren’t supposed to be up an hour ago, only 30 minutes. Also I think it is hilarious.

People are lazy. Dont see why Anet cant put 2 timezones in their releases though. They do do it sometimes.
Anet’s policy thus far has been to never take the blame for any of their screw ups. They never provided timely notices for things like this. When the official word comes out, it will be something in the line of “people misunderstood – it is not our fault.”
I am in Henge and nothing.. I am not in overflow….
After 30 min of fireworks, the Hologram Shatterer got shot from the sky and I got the achivement.

No
There were a few overflows that were bugged when Dragon Bash first started but there are no overflows that are actually showing the fireworks atm.
