There are people who doesn't have global chat opened all the time, or they can forget about it. If you play in Android, looking at the chat can be a pain in the ass. With this, knowing that there are catching events would be easier. It may look redundant, but I don't see it that way. WildHodor, awkways and Fixedgaming 3 Link to comment

It is redundant, and not really necessary nor can it really achieve much considering people just afk through, and also considering they provide you so many ways to know what events might happen during the day. Its your fault if you decide to use or not, the tools they bring you. Now you could argue is, they could rework the way they announce, even maybe provide us with an 'header' on the forum main page with the events of the day, or even provide a ingame calendar like we have for tournaments, that could help clueless kids like our OP. 13 hours ago, FinnTheMember said: Who sent these noobs -.- It's unlogical to play a game with checking various other side-app-link-sites. You guys are the one who creates excuses lol. You probably never played an mmo before then, im sorry that you are clueless of what you speak about. Almost every MMO that has a name to himself requires you to use 3rd parties in order to optimize your builds, your gameplay, to time stuff, etc, and no they wont ever even consider to provide you those tools ingame.

They don't have a direct correlation. Lots of users don't use global chat or the forums, or use the Android app, and is easier to make a way to let them know what is happening that is not that difficult to implement than asking on an imperative way to use the classic modes of getting information. I'd buy the in-game calendar as an alternative to this suggestion, tho! Link to comment

0 Goku Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) @Dibz why did you have to go and do that xDDD As for the suggestion, totally not necessary. There is enough means of knowing when and what events are taking place and quite frankly if you were in a relevant team yourself which I doubt you are, I am certain you'd get notified regularly. Thanks though. Edited June 19, 2019 by Bearminator Removing removed content without touching discussion- Bear Link to comment

Yeah, I could've sworn that I've seen announcements in-game saying "please join x event with x staff in 15 minutes" so this is already a thing.

0 SoloReprise Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Okay, so you're arguing about who's more toxic, if op, Team Lava or whatever who came here to talk. Maybe you should do a new topic, cos there's a nice proposal here and it's being forgotten. Now, translating and resuming the proposals and the debates around your flood, I'd say there are this topics around the table: As @Bearminator stated, we've got announcements about catching events using the announce system of the game. I've never saw them, but maybe they're there and I was just not looking well. If this pointed here is a fact, then the suggestion should be closed as the announcements already exist. Some users have pointed out that besides forums, we can see events announced at Discord. So maybe those who don't have discord should do it. There's something that sprouted on this topic that could be a good alternative suggestion. Maybe a new topic should be done to what @razimove proposed: An online calendar as the one we have at Google Calendars where people would be able to see all the events of the week/month.

Maybe you did't read my post. They do it as a system announcement, aka on the same "channel" that the comp ones are - so yes, you're suggestion is needless as it is already in play 90% of the time. They're just not regularly scheduled aka it's up to the staff hosting to post them over system announcements, they don't get auto-spammed like you see for CC's.

0 Akshit Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Everyone claiming that official discord #events-announcement announces PvE events: It doesn't always do that. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. And not everyone uses official discord. And the argument that 'OMG you obsolute tin can, you should use discord' doesn't exactly justify anything since neither those announcement always happen, nor it is an ideal solution for a person who wants to play the game, not download or always keep another app turned on just to get notification about the game's event. People claiming that in-game announcement is indeed made through system announcement: Again, not always true. And given how much random drama and spam goes through Global, it is turned off by many players, so claiming that just because it got announced in Global is good enough, it's not. Also people claiming that OP got triggered without reason: There is a reason, People initially told him to download discord and called him a fool for not having one (which he actually does have btw, just not on official discord)... claiming all events are announced there when they actually aren't always. So, Instead of giving more though to the actual suggestion, everyone just jumped the wagon of 'lol download discord' and 'OP is taking offence cause we calling him shit for not supporting discord' as if that has anything to do with this. Sure, shit-talking bunch of other players is not cool either, but both sides are kinda guilty here. tl;dr not everyone uses official discord, nor they should, it doesn't always announce events either. Not everyone has Global turned on, nor they should. PvP event already get announced 15 minutes ago, makes perfect sense if catch events did too (and not sometimes, all the times). This is a great suggestion. Totally up for it. WildHodor, Staggiie, SoloReprise and 1 other 4 Link to comment

0 Bearminator Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Again, announcements about events are not sent to /global, they are sent by system messages. On side note, keep off insults and personal opinions about other people, it's uncalled for and really doesn't help suggestion or discussion at all. That's to both sides. I will clear this a bit in few. awkways, hannahtaylor, Xigbar and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment
