My home world in game is Darkhaven. For the last few weeks, whenever Anet has posted new builds in game, it seems to occur during the dragon events…seemingly 95% or more of the time.
This has become very annoying and my guildies are talking abt leaving game because of these.
What happened to new builds occurring at midnight PST, like when the game first launched? It gets very disheartening when you get a dragon, for instance: today at 7:30 PM CST, down to less than 5% health, and the countdown for new build kicks you from the game. Why could the build restart begin after the chest from the event despawns? Or a countdown to new build at 60 min, 45 min, 30 min, 15 min, 5 min and less? At least a longer countdown would give players a chance to decide whether or not they should put the effort into that dragon spawn before the build restart.
Please do not think that I am hating on the Anet staff/devs in any way. I am really enjoying the game thus far.
