The epilogue will mostly consist of conversations and story elements; there are no exclusive rewards to be given at this time.”

“Correction: The original given date for the end of the Flame and Frost epilogue was incorrect. The epilogue will actually conclude on Tuesday May 14 with the release of the Secret of Southsun update.”

This is seriously messed up.

ANet said it was till the 16th. I did ALL the Living Story achievements and now they do this???

Come on, ANet, this is blatantly unfair to those who did ALL the quests!!!

Fix this, show that you at least care a MINIMUM about your players, gee.

No, it was the 16th at first. It was just moved forward because they wanted to start the Secret of Southsun thing today, and having two events at the same time is apparently confusing. Because of this, many people missed out on the final achievement.

it is simply unfair to change plans with little to no warning why is it so hard to add the bonfires for until the 16th this rather silly IMHO

If you don’t know what’s with all the A Rallying Flame posts, let me explain in breath-taking detail:
- Flame and Frost achievement “A Rallying Flame” announced to be on May 16th in a guide.
- May 16th suddenly changed to May 14th; ArenaNet fails to notify players of the date correction (which shouldn’t have occurred in the first place).

So thank you ArenaNet, for continuing to soil your reputation to us MMO noobies. It’s hard enough trying to understand a game with the worst entrance gameplay in video game history, let alone trying to figure out what to do with muddy instructions for achievements when you guys can’t even get a date right.

From all the noobs you screwed over,
Hot glue your nipples to a car tire.

“You don’t understand Quasi, they have lives and jobs. People make mistakes.”
You’re right. They’re job is maintain and provide new content for Guild Wars 2. When people make mistakes, they fix it. In this case, they (ArenaNet) should rollback to hold out on their original plan since they failed to make an effective attempt at notifying players of their mistakes.

“You’re just raging, you kid. It’s only a game; calm down.”
It is a game; good observation. Raging? No. Upset? Yes. I looked forward to seeing the epilogue of the Living Story played out and I’m disappointed it’s no longer, especially at the fault of a date error.

“It’s only an achievement.”
Not just that but a resolution of the story line. Some people, like me, are OCD for this stuff. I need to have all the achievements for a story. I need to see it through to the end. ArenaNet screwing up the ending date means I can no longer get the achievement, meaning I now have a huge feeling similar to holding back a sneeze.

I work, so I don’t have time to be on forum or play the game like I wanted to. It’s not my fault for losing the day, it’s fault of who misstyped the date. I’m kinda sad, because I like having my stuff 100% and now it’s not. Make it up for one more day, pretty please.

Rather than starting a new thread, I’m just going to reiterate what I’ve posted in the (now merged from a different) thread – please, consider longer lifespans for Living Story segments. This isn’t just about the finale for Flame & Frost, but about the LS going forward.

If two days is all we can expect for a conclusion to a months-long storyline, that’s very little incentive to take part and invest interest. As previously mentioned, I’m one of those who likes to read all the dialogue branches and so forth, because there’s clearly a lot of effort on the part of the story team to create a proper world here which is one of the big reasons GW2 stands out from the MMO pack.

Now, I’m not going to kid myself by pretending everyone cares about this; for many it’s just unique loot or an achievement tick. But there’s those of us who do want to read your story, see and read all we can because we like what your writers are doing, and for a months-long story to evaporate over a weekend is real shame – for that much investement the timeline for player involvement needs to be longer.

By all means, have time-limited rewards, one time events and such, but for us to stick with the LS over months we need to now that we’ll be able to have a decent chance to read the ending. I’ve not started the Southsun content yet, mostly because I’m grumpy having missed the newly-abbreviated F&F ending, granted, but also because what if, two or three months down the line, the designated ending falls on a weekend when I’m away? Why start myself on a story I may not get to finish?

No, none of this is game breaking, and yes, probably fewer people care about the story than loot; I’m not deluding myself. But still, to spend a time enjoying a narrative that others have obviously enjoyed crafting only for the final chapter to be an extremely time-limited edition feels somewhat galling. Have a small window for people to claim rewards (I can still claim the gauntlets, despite the event being over, which seems bizarrely inverse), or one time unique rewards, sure – but please, don’t cut short a long story so quickly, or at least allow some method for those of us who do enjoy it a broader opportunity to see the narrative.

They could easily put a fire on the beach in southsun cove. To welcome the people. (And for the players to gain their achievement. The buff would be nice, too, but the achievement is way more important, I think..)

Next time – if they have to correct their time frame – they should email it and put it into the launcher.
Apart from that 2 days to get an achievement is not enough, especially if this short period of time is not announced properly.

I read it and I got the achievement, but I feel sorry for all of you who did not. :-(

This is severely disappointing. I made sure the final date was when it said it was going to be repeatedly during the dungeon phase to make sure I would NOT miss the epilogue due to real life. So when I log in today, on a free available day, KNOWING the epilogue was not to end until the 16th, I find out it was moved up basically without warning.

I do not frequent these boards enough to see changes in schedule, I expect such things to be mentioned on the launcher or via email, with some sort of apology for those of us who have little time to schedule for a game.

I made sure to have time enough to play to get all the achievements for the Living Story thus far, so finding out I can no longer get the achievement I planned to get forever on because the final date for the already short epilogue was moved up a good few days within basically the last handful of hours the epilogue was even available is a bit of a stab in the back.

Why should I find time to log in if the game is going to sweep out limited-time events, achievements, items, and other such things out from under me with little-to-no warning?

The end of the epilogue was the 16th up until the last handful of hours before the 14th’s change-over. I say bring back the epilogue for the last few days missed to give us our proper good-bye to Flame and Frost. And avoid pulling the rug out at the last minute next time.

Seriously! I logged in today going .. wtf.. where are the bonfires (checks email in game.. yep 16th.. wtf..) NOW when it’s gone I read on the forums to find out they ninja’ed it.

I would HOPE they hotfix it. Even some stupid NPC to say “here’s your achievement since you got every single one of the other ones” just like they did with Mad King. I didn’t even get anything from Karka since it wouldn’t even let me in the zone but this one I missed because I dared to celebrate Mother’s Day with family..

Making me feel like I am being cheated out of game content, does not make me want to rush out and buy a gem card, or use my credit to support, such lazy actions by a developer.

Your employee messed up on writing the official front page news article. The right thing would have been to own up to it, and keep the bonfires in. Not post some announcement on the forum hours before the update, were only a very small portion of players even visit.
I mean they extended the other achievements after being bugged for weeks, preventing some from able to complete Flame and Frost.

Anet is running a business and tiny things like this add up, this is not just about the bonfire, this is about months and months of dealing with this kind of stuff over and over again.

Thought November was a lesson learned? Apparently not. Funny how Southsun, in some way is ruining a simple experience to try and have some fun in video game, once again.

I would like to add my voice to those already spoken.

I don’t care about the reward, I care about the story. I want closure for months of work. I, like so many others, have limited time to play and can’t check the forums every day or even every other day necessarily. If something like the date change happens, that’s fine, but ANet needs to inform about it by something that if absolutely visible, such as an email to all players. This is really major stuff, and as others have already said this corrodes my faith in ANet’s reliability. Limited time content is ok, but the epilogues and closure segments need to be longer than 48h and if a wrong date is given, then that date must be kept, even if it reschedules something else by a few days.

I’m not mad, but I am extremely disappointed. I’m shipping off to a magical place with no internet tomorrow morning and I’m now apparently unable to get the closure for this long storyline of months and months of work and investment. It doesn’t really inspire me to put effort into future storylines either, nor does it garner any goodwill that would make me buy gems from the Black Lion Trading Company. If you don’t care about anything else ANet, care about this: You’re losing money because of this. I’ve no desire to support a game or a company that does this kind of things to their paying customers.

This is completely unfair to move the dates forward without further prior notice. I work Friday to Monday, i can’t log onto GW2 then and was expecting to be able to approach the bonfire today only to find out it’s already been patched and removed. To run the Living World story for so many months only to put the final conclusion to it in a 4 day event and then to cut 2 extra days off, which unless we visit the forums frequently which I did not realize was a requirement to play an MMORPG, then we’re the ones who get the short end of the stick?

Please consider extending the bonfire or adding it back in, this decision has upset a lot of people, myself included.

Are you kidding me?
I have spent months, watching this little living story play out. Every update, every time, I get on that day/night and plow through the content. I go out of my way to complete everything I can because I feel that hey, I’m a part of something that will never happen again.
I read the wiki, I read the game updates.
So, if it had said from the start that the 14th was end day, and I’d missed it, I’d be alright with that.
But it didn’t. Someone screwed up. And because of them, everyone who had their schedule set to include playtime on the 15th got screwed out of ever getting that achievement.
People, so dedicated to the game that they include it’s content in their life schedules,
got screwed.
By you.

And now, we all get to look out our living story achievements and see that, hey
we didn’t complete the story arc. We saved the world from an invasion, we helped the refugees, we fixed stupid sign posts, we scourged the dirt and snow for artifacts of those poor souls whose home was taken from them…
but we didn’t circlejerk around a bonfire.
We didn’t anticipate that your writers would screw us.
I won’t make that mistake again.

You know I wouldn’t have minded as much if the update was at the usual time of 8pm and not 10am, then I could have caught the last few hours of it at the very least. I don’t even care about the buffs the bonfire gives, that’s a pleasant surprise and wouldn’t have mattered to me regardless.

I genuinely feel heartbroken that after 3 months of story I’m forced to miss the final part because they cut it down to 48 hours. I’d be fine with it if it just so happened those dates fell onto my work schedule, that would be my fault not ANet’s, but instead I was told it would last until the 16th and was cut short with the only notice being via the forums. I can only hope the staff do listen to our complaints and give us the chance to see the ending to this saga we’ve been enjoying and taking part in. It seems like all that effort and time is wasted in a split second.
