I like the concept - but the only thing that really annoys me about it is having to constantly switch - I keep forgetting so my actions don't register. Why can't it be like our dailies where it automatically registers no matter what order you do it in.
Yes they do (just tested it on a bounty) - BUT you have to switch to attack quest first......... which isn't good if you are on the boss or helping or adventure quest
Thanks for the feedback on Quests so far! I'll definitely be discussing the tracking of Quests with the team; I wouldn't expect to see anything change by the end of this Beta test, but for a full release we'll certainly weigh all of our options.
Thanks for listening. We want to enjoy the game, not get anything for free. Sometimes the changes just don't seem like they were thought through is all.
Having to constantly switch in order to get credit for the actions you are doing is insane! Why add a feature that is doubling our work for very little payout? There is no way a small armada can reach these goals. Shouldn't there be different limits for different size armada's? or only the full ones matter?
To be fair, this went through a long process of planning and iteration, internal review, etc. That said, the way we intend features to be used and the way it ends up being used in practice sometimes doesn't line up, but we are always open to change based on feedback where it makes sense.
I believe the initial setup that we have for them is great. its weekly challenges the armada can strive for which will only encourage more activity. Nothing bad on that front to say. There is however one thing id change and that is the constant need to swap over from one quest to the next. It is tedious and a bit annoying to have to remember to do. Having it so that all are active at the same time i think would be great, then have tracking which is where whatever one you manually select shows on the hud where the locations picture is. That way you can personally track a specific one to see how close to completion it is while also knowing everything you do in game is counted towards the quests that arent showing up. This would also allow people to keep the interface a bit more clean if they would like as they dont need to track one and constantly see it if they dont want to. Overall i really like the update but a little bit of adjustment will go a long ways in ease of use and enjoyability for people. Might have more feedback once i see more and use more of the quests but for now good job.
I agree, a small E Class armada should have their work for Quests tiered so they have the same opportunity as the largest A Class
tiered quests might cause a problem since what would stop them from just inviting a couple other people in and then they have lower requirements. would the requirements be auto adjusting as per players joining? what about ones that are complete and then another person joins, would it then restart or give a new total that unfinishes the quest? the way it is now, from the way i see it, this will encourage people to grow if they want to complete them all given they cant already.
Manually switching between quest goals is a pain and slows down my play substantially. I like the quests but I will have to wait and see what Atmada thinks
I have to agree with the others on this switching back and forth. What a pita! This switching will bring people to not wanting to even bother. I just worked several bosses also, with the one stinking stamina. Took me forever to get minimum damage on a level 56 boss! I'm talking a good 5-10 minutes. In the meantime, I was being attacked and couldn't stop to go attack back, or I would have possibly lost out on my end loot rewards. This isn't going to work.
I already tired to have to think and 'switch' all the time before doing something... That switch thing is annoying... Every action we make should go direct to quests...
i am seein an issue already when tryin to perform 7500 Adventures an seems to me that we can only get the numbers to go up if we are in our highest Location we are on, we should be allow to do this on whatever city location we want? can this be a new change an if possible?
Well collecting a quick bounty or two is out of the question unless you leave it on that task just in the event one comes up. And for the battle boards are filled with undead...wow...
Are the quests supposed to end on fridays or is that a mistake? With the weekly gp ending sunday night i find it a bit strange.
