KvotheTheArcane1 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) ...no fix for solo players? Personally, I saw clan scoring as the least important thing. Personally, since it's not always the player's fault they can't play online, it's important to not exclude them from the game events.

Teorina Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 How many ways are there to add up numbers? Surely playing more ie grinding, is always going to improve the clan standing? And really, I think solo players deserved a change much much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure_Kytia Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Solo players? Who are they? That 5% of Strict NATters nobody seems to care about? D: EDIT: This isn't my opinion, but just reflecting the attitudes and actions taken by those who have the power to resolve or work around these issues in the first place.

Lunaticked Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Anything going to be done about people trolling with not having a rare antitoxin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UraLoop Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Solo players? Who are they? That 5% of Strict NATters nobody seems to care about? D: The people that put actual effort into getting the gear and a decent, maybe more prelavent souvenir of an event? I would totally dig getting a full-Wraith loadout, but if you can't get 100 points.. I don't mind the rare potion that much, even; it's that everybody wants a Frost or a Nova or a Rhino to help when all I wanna do is play my favourites -Loki, Valkyr, Volt, Vauban, Banshee..- I can't enjoy AND get something worth it out of this event when I can't play as my favourites, now can I? PS. I wouldn't mind just seeing a higher needed score accumulated instead with the original scores multiplied so that those that have already done the painful 4x25 antidote run.

Nazarel Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Anything going to be done about people trolling with not having a rare antitoxin? This was my worry, It's likely my friend and I will group with 2 people from chat. If one of them thinks he has the right anti toxin (or is just being a troll) and does not it can cost us our anti toxin and we have to repeat the entire process. Which I'm not done just yet anyway, still though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SatouJin Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 even if they are seriously forcing people into random squad groups, what was the point of even having any other toxins but lapis considering any other combinations aside from 4 players with 4 lapis results in a massive waste of time?

RahuHordika Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Maybe. That's kinda what I was getting at. You seemed to have missed it though, sorry for not being direct. It's alright. But really guys? People have been complainig about solo scoring and what you are working on are clan scores? Why do I have the feeling you are gonna make it so they also end up being dependant on a single mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaian-a-coel Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Exactly how is it changing? Also that. We're complaining that you say nothing, and you answer by posting stuff with exactly zero information in it. "it's going to change" "we're working on it" "we're thinking about it" I'm getting tired of this. GIVE US ACTUAL INFORMATION. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[DE]Rebecca Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 ...no fix for solo players? Personally, I saw clan scoring as the least important thing. Personally, since it's not always the player's fault they can't play online, it's important to not exclude them from the game events. There was a significant amount of issue with an 18 day event using an additive method of calculating clan scores. This needed to change, it is changing, but until the exact method is known the PSA is out there for anyone who falls into the group of players concerned by this. As for Solo concerns, that is a different problem for this event and not going unnoticed. Being discussed as I type this, nothing to confirm at this time but I hope to have an update later. For people that are frustrated that that isn't "real info", I'm sorry, but I don't want to relay inaccurate information about a developing situation. There are issues being brought up by several groups of players - the clan issue is one being mentioned in this thread. Locking thread for now, preserving info.
