Kappatalist Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) ...your disloyalty to the Tenno cause is deplorable and self-depriving. Here's a fact that not many people seem to understand: if we don't reach 100% extermination by 12PM EDT on 8 July, no one gets anything. No SNIPETRON VANDAL. No Primed Chamber mods for the top 100 who put so much time and effort into the event. No fancy Update 9 dojo statues. NOTHING. And it is those who decided that 20 kills was enough who are to blame. Those who put in next-to-nil effort. If you can get out there and slaughter some derp balloons, get out there and slaughter! If none of your attacks are enough to one-shot these things, for whatever reason, then grind some Credits, buy a LEX, slap Hornet Strike on that sucker, and get to plinking! We can take down this goal, no matter how insurmountable it may seem. Actively running Grineer missions Lv. 15+ is all you have to do, and the rest practically takes care of itself. Look out for radar interference as a detection measure, find them, and shoot them. Easy. It's game time. The 7th is the time to buckle down and kill these things. If you're too busy faafing around on Wave 100 Xini here and now, just remember that you're the one who took everyone's event rewards away. That is all. [/srsmode] EDIT: To clarify - those of you with those things called "lives" who are unable to get on to participate... you are not the problem. Life before vidya games. Carry on.

Katakuna Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 For some, it's more of a matter of fun-factor than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyphian Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) I hear some guys in chat "If we stop killing drones, then developers will get the message and will give us better events." What the hell? That's sad and that's the attitude which won't reward us anything. Go guys kill the drones. Edit: it will be very painful when the event expires when we were at 90%. Go guys, go...don't make our efforts unnecessary. Edited July 7, 2013 by Lyphian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryaneko Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 well.. if this wouldnt force solo play you might have my curiousity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty5 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Solo'd all of the Grineer bosses for the last BP's I needed. sitting at ~400 kills. At this point i kinda want to do something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddwjp Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 its just the event is rather boring, it gone to just farm this enemy lots of times, an event need to be more different to the normal game play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalGerbil Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 relax. we are on schedule if anything. we will probably have time to spare, if the last event is any indication, it will spike sunday afternoon and finish up early monday. we are at half with half with 30 hours remaining, and two peak hours left to get a quick jump. wont be an issue.

RejectionOfFate Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 This man needs to be president of the United States of Tenno. He cut straight through the political crapping around, and got straight to the point. YOU HEARD THE MAN! ....Let's hunt us some balloons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kappatalist Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 well.. if this wouldnt force solo play you might have my curiousity It doesn't. Once you have 20 kills, you're free to surrender those kills on your stats to others for the sake of efficiency. Solo play is boring anyways. Turn on Online mode, don't worry about Top 100 but rather 100%, and things would be going a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo play is boring anyways. Turn on Online mode, don't worry about Top 100 but rather 100%, and things would be going a lot better. But that in turn ruins efficiency. If four Tenno are in a group killing balloons when there can be four different solo missions filled with balloons, you're effectively losing three people's killing power.

IIPREDATORII Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) I would've been grinding out the kills. But work is getting in my way. No room for all nighters like I wanted to do to help out. I'm sitting at 277 and wish I could do more. Edited July 7, 2013 by IIPREDATORII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If four Tenno are in a group killing balloons when there can be four different solo missions filled with balloons, you're effectively losing three people's killing power. Just what I was about to say. Informers spawn per mission rather than per player. And given that they appear in any 15+ Grinner mission and are really easy to kill, in easily solo-able places, it just drives the point further. There's plenty of time left, OP. Calm down.

Blatantfool Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Don't worry. What all these guys don't realize is that they accidentally accepted a EULA that states DE may execute them for cowardice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kespertive Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) I'm fine with nothing, since I don't need nor want any of the rewards Edited July 7, 2013 by Kespertive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakaxy Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 The problem is, due to the added competition for kills it is basically a solo event and motivation can drop pretty fast for a lot of people if they run around alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AscendantWyvern Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I may have stopped hunting them, but not to worry, I still will play on Sedna and will shoot the drones as I see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgax Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Propaganda/Threat crusade won't motivate lazy people, rewards would. Make kill tiers with each own reward 20 kills: random rare mod 100 kills: Random Void key 200: Snipetron Vandal 500: New mod that we heard about each 200 kill after 500 yields randomly mod/key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AberforthBrixby Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 The problem is the event is more work than it is fun. I don't play games to work. This game is already a grind by choice but this event is a grind by force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
