DarthZ Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 It seems every other day there's a catalyst alert now. At 5 am. Always at 4-5 am. There were TWO IN A ROW at 5 last night. Is it so hard to put a freaking alert that EVERYONE WOULD WANT during normal hours for the US? Like 3 pm. 3 pm would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confidence Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 You should appreciate the fact they even give us such items in alerts , they are meant to be purchased with platinum.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthZ Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) You should appreciate the fact they even give us such items in alerts , they are meant to be purchased with platinum.. I'm not getting any of them cause I actually sleep. So I don't appreciate it. That's like appreciating your boss giving everyone who works tuesday a raise just cause they were there, but giving you tuesday off beforehand. I'd rather just them not have the alerts and have to buy plat than the frustration of missing like 5 in the last week because they're always at godawful times.

Maslofski Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 they are RANDOM, that means nobody there has control over it, your making so no sence, in europe they had them at 12 am, so ive it would have randomly switched, they would be mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davoodoo Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Both alerts were between 3-4pm in central europe so i dont see any problem. Also there were 4 catalysts total past 3 days. Is there really a reason to complain?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's impossible for them to edit alerts. We just happen to be able to get oh say a 12 hour catalyst alert after everyone misses one due to server issues. Man love that randomness that totally seems like developers starting an alert. Devs have the ability to do whatever they want for alerts, random is bs cause they have access to reprogram and change any and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confidence Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I need alot of them aswell but il manage with what i have , i got two today which wasn't expected so yea , helped me out , but they don't always do it at the same time , its just random like most people said you just need to be lucky enough to get the right alert at the right time i guess.

Except if they did have no randomness and did so every single time a whiner like you *@##$es (Which happens at least 50 times a freaking day) they would just be constantly throwing them up now wouldn't they? No, the server issues were their fault and they made up for it, same with the dark sword alert and they remedied that situation too. Now stop being a little baby and think of a solution to your problem that doesn't involve the devs just giving you what you want.

Motox831 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 It really comes off as all item alerts happen during Europeon Times. Until I see one happen during normal hours of US times I am going to call them stating its RNG bull S#&$. Just because they say its RNG doesn't mean it. If you look at every item alert within the last Two weeks the stats will show you all between midnight and 6 am in the morning for US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, and like there's no issue that the other side of the world IS getting free potatoes, and plenty of them, while this side either has to stay awake all night or just not get them? The alerts are giving free potatoes regardless. My issue is that they're all going elsewhere consistently. And DO YOU EVEN PROGRAM? Developers can change alerts in a second. They can schedule plenty if they want. It really comes off as all item alerts happen during Europeon Times.

If you look at every item alert within the last Two weeks the stats will show you all between midnight and 6 am in the morning for US. Ex-freaking-actly. Maybe if it actually looked random I would say it's random. But the fact it's been fairly consistent for a rather large sampling of alerts...in science we call that repeatable, not random.

Yes it does come off like that, but remember the saying: Correlation does not imply causation. @OP I live in US If you want scheduled potatoes wait for livestream.

I'm not getting any of them cause I actually sleep. So I don't appreciate it. dont take naps all day long and you will get some alerts Edited May 14, 2013 by AssassinenMuffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give that we have reactors. But why no catalysts? If it's random then why does it only seem to roll reactors (Which I now have enough saved up for every single frame including two more to be added). There were also several frame helmets only being dropped in the early am's so I think that makes up for 1 dark dagger. Artifact drops turn useless after you get them all, you don't collect dupes nor can you sell them. And cash is constant 24 hours and again after a while becomes mostly useless.

Xoxile Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Would you complain this much if a rogue in your party kept rolling natural 20's, and you rolled mostly 5's or below? It may seem there is some conspiracy that EU is going to dominate the US in Orokin potatoes, but some times people on the other side of the world are just luckier than you. Also think about the people in EU who stay up all night waiting for good alerts, and then give up the wait to sleep all day but then miss three catalysts. They are just in as much pain as you... Which is none at all... Because it's just a game. Edited May 14, 2013 by Xoxile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
