Night's End Improvements

KIXEYE CM Chris · 24 Oct 2015, 4:32PM

Greetings Commanders,

Last night we made some improvements to the event. We increased the XP payouts of Tier B and Tier A. We also reduced the amount of units in defense waves in Tier C & B, and some of the defense waves in Tier A. Hopefully these changes will reduce the lag and difficulty a bit in those missions.

Unfortunately, the Missions do not correctly say how much XP they are actually paying out. You will get far more XP than the event HUD advertises on certain waves. Here are the real facts, we hope you enjoy.

The XP increases are substantial, especially on early waves. You will see these amounts when you defeat a wave!

CM Chris while this is a STEP in the right direction the defense waves are still excessive.

We improved the rewards for them, and reduced their challenge. I suggest you try them out with this new setup!

Thank you for the feedback. We do want defense to matter though, and it's a tricky balance.

Everyone is saying Tier B the 50 base is bugged where you can't finish it, has this been fixed?

KIXEYE CM Chris · 24 Oct 2015, 4:41PM

95s will no longer payout XP, but we will be increasing their other rewards significantly. They should be paying out 5x more progress to the Sandstorm (a huge increase!). We will make sure we fix that bug. We'll be doing our best to credit that progress to any who missed out.

We are not aware of this, and I have not had this problem personally.

igpa-atinla · 24 Oct 2015, 4:47PM

Are we going to be compensated for the missions we already did?

polosdopoas · 24 Oct 2015, 4:49PM

we need more airscraft space and more hellicopters bases maybe 2 and airplanes too

Northernstar2010 · 24 Oct 2015, 4:51PM

why do we need that?

Lag Monster · 24 Oct 2015, 4:54PM

The large amount of units being deployed all at once, from all directions, spawning close to our base, coupled with the lag is a big chunk of the problem. I know I suffer 10 - 20 seconds of lag and Im on the low end of what users are experience from a defense wave. My turrets are firing and often the attackers are already in position to start firing on my base before my units respond to any of my commands. This is ONE of the reasons people have been having such an issue with the difficulty for defense. Also the sheer volume of units spawning virtually at the same time is also an issue. Having them come in waves (which is what players are forced to do and how combat should be conducted) would make players significantly happier with the defense aspect (which has been seriously overdone this event). I would suggest instead of making these huge sweeping changes in how an event is done is to instead increase by smaller increments that would eliminate most of the player **** about how hard you all decide to suddenly make things.

Yea, this is BS. I just tried to do the Tier B defense waves and now theres THREE cyclones instead of two. As for the lv10, literally all they did was move the gas building back a bit.

"Improved" what a **** joke.

Then why you not increased our xp for earlier done waves, i had completed Tier B before but still no increase in payouts why?

AssMeister · 24 Oct 2015, 5:08PM

And lets not forget the even more frequent empty map and unresponsive units...

On my tier b payouts I see none of the so called "new" payout totals. I have the 50 bug as well as a lot of people. You guys really done good this time my hats off to you guys.

Apperantly it wont be listed there. But i agree to the hats off part. They actually made Tier B's 2nd defense wave HARDER, and the empty map and unresponsive units is even MORE frequent for me now... And Tier C's lv10 base they literally just moved the gas building, nothing else.

the tier A needs a reduction of difficulty not Xp

MAFIA-ANAB · 24 Oct 2015, 5:11PM

Now we're talking!

AssMeister · 24 Oct 2015, 5:13PM

Lost my Lead Operator once again because the game refused to let me surrender! Its been doing this the whole event and iv lost inumerable defenders because of it.

You didnt improve very much at all, just what i should have expected.

gobirdseagles · 24 Oct 2015, 5:14PM

I don't trust that we are getting more xp even though you say we are. I don't trust Kixeye period . That is a bad commentary on the "State of the GAME" I think over 80 % of players don't trust what you guys say you will deliver.

Dr. Freeman · 24 Oct 2015, 5:22PM

*Clap Clap* After I drowning in 1d repairs, you 'Increased' payouts and 'Decreased' difficulty... As some players mentioned up, hats off to you

Capt_Ron_The_Killer · 24 Oct 2015, 5:23PM

Unless they boost the repair times any move made now is pointless.
