I kind of agree for the sake of simplicity and kind of disagree because I don’t think being lazy should be justified.

Because playing the game instead of reading the forums is laziness. Yeah, right.

If an announcement is that important, it should have been ingame. They have already been mailing every char about the different acts – why was that information excluded?

@Jairlyn:
“How much time were you wanting them to give here because the argument could be made that there isnt enough time for the entire event for people to get pumpkins or ToT bags or all the achievements.”

Easy to answer: Until the end of the halloween festivities – just like all the other events. There is no reason to shut this single event down early.

@Gisei:

Except that it is not ‘tough luck’.
It is tough luck if only one in a houndred chests contain a certain item and I don’t get to loot one.
It is tough luck if I play 100 games of rumble and even though I play exceptionally good I don’t win a single one.
But it is not tough luck if the halloween event you need for the completion is only available for two days, one of which it is so bugged that you cannot enter the instance. It is not tough luck if you can play all the stuff form the previous events in act4 but not the dungeon. In this case people are not being punished for being not good enough or not finding the time to play at all – they are punished for no reason.

Look, I wouldn’t even complain if act1 events were only completeable during act1, act2 events ony during act2 and so on. But every single event can be completed during act4 – except for the dungeon. And there is no reason to have it this way, there are several solutions to this (some have been posted above), none of which has to be ‘halloween going on forever’. No one ever asked for that.

This is seriously dissapointing. I also missed the dungeon due to RL. Not being able to enter it in act4 and thus not being able to get the title strikes me as really bad gamedesign.

At least make the clocktower or the carving count to the title.
