Matt_328 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Catalysts and reactors used to expire in 24 hours, but now they last only 1 hour... fortunately I was able to get today's alert, but since I have a life and I can't play 24 hours, I won't be that lucky next time.

Kracken Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 the 24 h are after dev streams ONLY the rest is max 2h and they are random Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neah Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) This is a normal Catalyst alert, not the ones after a devstream (24 hours). Edit : Ninja'd Edited October 30, 2014 by Neah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiralmenace Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 random alerts are only 40-90 minutes on average. you're thinking of devstream rewards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeejayPwny Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 They used to be 20ish minutes, and then they buffed the timers to 1-1:30. The only 24 hour alerts are unique alerts like livestreams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RawGritz Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 24hr alerts are after a Devstream. Catalysts and Reactors can show up as typical alert rewards from time to time. When they do they will have random durations before expiring, just like any other alert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janzer Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 On a related note, the 24hour dev stream community alerts should be open to all, not just those that have unlocked the node. This would make things more inclusive for all newer players that may not get in before everyone has run the alert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_328 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Oh, I didn't know it, I don't watch those "devstreams", I just play the game and visit the forums from time to time. Well, they should do devstreams more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harakiripour Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Sorry for having a life and not having time to do what a good Tenno should do. If you had a life you wouldn't be worrying about catalyst alerts, you'd be out living life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_328 Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 If you had a life you wouldn't be worrying about catalyst alerts, you'd be out living life. I'm not worried, my life is not ending just because I missed an alert on a videogame. I'm just frustrated with the fact that I have to play 24 hours in order to get the important alerts.

Even if bought the 2nd lowest Plat amount (175) at only a 20% Discount login voucher (which are very common - EDIT just got one logging in just NOW) at $8.60 AU, a single Catalyst/Reactor would come to $1.14 AU. I'm fully aware you might not want to pay $1 for a Catalyst, I'm pointing out that you started a post stating that you are frustrated you lost out on getting $1 for zero effort.

Draciusen Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Why would I pay in a free to play game? To save your time, which you are obviously so concerned about. You don't have to no-life it to get potatoes, it's honestly not as terrible as it seems; especially considering you don't need to potato everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
