Rogean's Apology

[Rooj]

After the patch yesterday I was thinking about how Rogean mentioned he was sorry for doing a patch during peak hours. All I can think to myself is, how do you owe us an apology? A patch during peak times is the best thing to happen for those of us in non "super" guilds in a long time. We were actually able to engage (and even kill!) a few spawns before every single raid named was completely wiped out. I think even for those small guilds out there who attempted some kills but failed, were probably still satisfied that they were even given the opportunity. This high end tier of raiding is generally experienced only by a small fraction of players on the server (which I think is a bad thing) and so seeing folks who don't fit under this generalization succeed in claiming and defeating these spawns is not only exciting but really makes our time spent on Project 1999 much more enjoyable. So I do not accept your apology and instead thank you for it.

(of course insert long responses about how variance and raid spawn timers etc etc need to be changed etc etc need more patches etc etc resets every week etc etc blah blah)

Thanks!

We play for free (and donate if we want), I don't think an apology is necessary - if anything there's way less downtime than there was on live around this period [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Your post has reminded me of a suggestion nilbog had forwarded and discussed with me not too long ago, similar to simulated patch day respawns.. Would be nice if we could put a system in place so that those guilds get more chances at mobs that spawn during peak times.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this. Very exciting to know things might be in the works to make end game possible for casuals.

It is encouraging to see staff recognition of this notion. I've personally had no dog in the raid scene fight, but each time simulated patching has been brought up... I couldn't objectively argue against it.

I'm going to speak for Full Circle here , well because im the gl and I'm supposed to speak for Full Circle , and this would be a great thing for us .

Last night we did get a chance to attempt talendor , it didn't work out , and honestly it's our own fault , we didn't react fast enough , and honestly that experience is classic . We did learn from the experience , and we do appreciate having the opportunity .

TMO , and BDA for that matter handled the situation well . Honestly , a TMO member informed me that they kited and hopschotched to CT and that fear was nearly fully spawned and we had a pretty good night as a result . I appreciate the heads up from them and consider it gracious of them to say somethng to us . Both TMO and BDA have alway been resonably supportive of us , and if they want to sit back and let us attempt something new thats on thier farm list, then great , but if we can't muster in time , and we had plenty or time , then I appreciate the help they did offer .

I do think that a simulated patch day with respawns would help both sides of the spectrum . I think it would give guilds like Full Circle a chance at some bigger targets , and I think that it would allow the bigger guilds an opportunity to let a few go and still keep thier members happy .

Sounds intriguing.

TMO and BDA are both big enough to cover Kunark and Velious, so I would say it will be same old thing after the new wears off in Velious. I mean you can't have half the guild on the same raid at one time. And there will always be new members join these guilds just to get the Kunark gear, so I see no change.

Silly Alarti, that post was meant for the smaller guilds! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
