now i could NOT beat the clock tower, BUT LOVED the challenge.
i dont want another debate/hate/love thread, we have enough of them about the CT.
heres a suggestion that might please both.(keep discussion about suggestions PLEASE?)
it was a great piece of art, good challenge SHOULD be kept for Halloween only, BUT, for the sake of peoples mental health(plus my own), Rescale like this:
the 90 seconds completion time should=Mad Kings Slippers+15 PToT-bags
(remove chest 1-3/make them harder to get to atleast),
91 sec’s-120 seconds=15 PToT bags, 121-150 seconds=5 PToT bags,
151+ secs=achievement alone,
this way it gives the “pro’s” the challenge they seek, but gives us “inbetweeners” something, and the “newbies” can still get the achievement,
most of the time it was split second “lag” that caused a fail at the start as i had no time to get away from the green water, which is another reason to remove the time limit, on deader hour’s, this was more playable until the first lightning strike, theres a little rock very capable of snagging rushing player’s, but no way to avoid it, unless you come from the slight angle from the small upper platform, but then the other platform with the rised middle “fin”, has a just as high chance to snag you aswell, which is where 60% players died everytime, i myself got as far as passing past the pink, jumping to tiny stone, to fail at the skinny medal beam that connect’s to the clock wall chunk, just before very last stairs(4 times), after 7 hours(first night) and 6 hours(tonight), i threw down the towel, i was at the point i was just gonna un-install the game(more due to connection speed),
for alot of us we dont care for the slipper’s, we care only for maxing that achievement(already maxed the others quick), and it is not a good feeling inside, when you feel like i do, because halloween happened to fall on a bad time in my State/Country our broadband is being slowed why they update everything, so the 90seconds is not a reachable goal for people in my situation(this is NOT your fault, no one can re-schedule an event because 1 state in 1 country is technically inclined),
i say dont change anything on the CT besides the time, there are MANY older players who’s eyes cant keep with that speed, theres people like me who have slow reacting depth perception+slowed internet, but theres many hardcore player’s that will still love the reward’s and love the fact you need to be as good as them/better to compete with there times)
and also even add a “best times” chart, like roller beetles had, and the top 10 from each server(or what ever) get a reward at the end of the festival(not a mini, i hate things that make mini’s like that), it to spices up the challenge for those claiming it was still “to easy”,
dont be Discouraged about adding challenge, just find “better ways” to implement them that wont turn 80% of the server into rage “lady’s of the night”, it’s just a personal suggestion and didnt wanna open up another CT thread that would have this community clashing swords more, i hope you do consider this, it’d make the content FUN for all/but add’s certain challenge for the “challenge junkies” and they can compete among 1 another.
love to hear thought’s from the community aswell as staff.
(P.S: Sorry for late post, halloween forum is closed, and i was “suspended” from forums, all of october)
also thought i seen a similar post and deleted my other thread(i was wrong)
maybe for future special event JP’s aswell.
