Same for me just vanished today with no warning and I really liked to spawn him and talk to him :\ . I have items like Candy-Powered Matter Meter (first Halloween), Investigation Kit, Sample Detector (Suthsun), Order Cryptotranslator (F&F), etc. and they are like mementos from past story arcs. So did the golem serve for this halloween and now he’s just gone :‘( and he actualy was nice and not really useless like the other items. I’d really want my Relay Golem back.
As I do not post often on the forum and play as much as my own time allows some things must be said.
I actualy loved the event and every part of it, being as hard as it was and frustrating but challenging nonetheless, but there are some things you keep on forgeting that the community will be hard to forget. Not every player of your game owns a pristine PC or flawless internet conection to play it with no problems. That being said, having a excelent PC for gaming and surely more than the recommended configuration my game still crashes every now and then but still fairly often (if I change maps often or use waypoints mostly) and the crashes wouldn’t and haven’t annoyed me much (even though they have annoyed me) because if I’m doing something I can just reconnect, even in a dungeon I can get back fairly fast because the loading of the game doesn’t take more than a minute.
Now coming to the part that broke the last stiches of my patiance (and I am a really patient person), the Phase 3 event chain to kill the ancient karka really put us as gamers to the test (Yes you didn’t test your games limits but the limits of the players who play your game).
I will tell this part from my perspective but I’m sure most of the people that played through the event feel the same. Being on time for the one time event and battling against hordes of karka and it wouldn’t be so ridiculously hard if I hand’t been fighting against an immposible amount of lag (If you want to make us your stress test guinea pigs please don’t do it in the time of events where the last thing we should be thinking of is lag and delays but the wonders of the event and the effort you put into it). The lag became bearable at one point when most of the people finished the event and people in my guild sending messages of extrodanary drops od exotics and precoursors even though the guild chat was bugged so i was cut out from them. At that point I had a goal to look up to and knew my hard work and effort wouldn’t be in vain and after 3 unberable hours of fighting and ressing, dying and beeing downed dozens of times on the overflow we had been 10 mins away from the end. But then comes the part when people would frustrate and rage which I can say I was not far from. At that point my game crashed like all the dozens of times but I did not despair I even laughed because I knew my game would crash at a important moment and I just went to log in again because I knew it would only take me a minute to get back in. But then (don’t you see the irony of it) I couldn’t even log into the game any more and franticaly tryed to get in for about 25 minutes but to no avail. Then I really had enough of all the crashes and dissconects before and though this can’t be worth it, 3 hours spent to lose my nevers at the last moments and this is how you lose the trust of your audiance. After 5 more minutes I could finnaly log in but to what avail, the event has passed and people I had been playing with could only show off their loot and precoursors.
Knowing that some of those people already finished the event on a different character and now again and I couldn’t even finish it once.
I do not ask you to give me a precoursor or the drop but I want to be treated the same. I want a chance to get a precoursor or a exotic drop, just a CHANCE, when people can get 2 or more chances on those drops, why couldn’t I get atleast 1.
I know you are working on a fix for this problem with dissconneting but still do you think we can forget or even just look past it. We wanted a chance, just that, and you didn’t give us one. You can give us the chest back and a chance to get exotics or precoursors (which I don’t believe will happen so we will still be withheld the same treatment) but we cannot forget this happened and you surely can’t.
I implore to you that you keep on with the great work with the content of the game, but we can’t and won’t be your guinea pigs when it comes to stressing your servers or trying to see how thing would work if you just make something as massive as this event for feedback, something as immpressive as this should be as polished as it can for the players to enjoy it propperly and you will not keep some of your loyal player if you treat them like lab rats for the future of the game.
My game crashes quite frequently and mostly when changing areas or characters or in fights. About once every hour or more if i change characters or travel between areas often.
