I think part of it is a different definition of "event"; like they're going to have a stream event to mark the end of Wonderholme tomorrow and there's a Strongbox Jackpot event going on (unpopular though it may be). So on EME's calendar, there are "events". But it's not what people mean by events.
The strongbox jackpot is unpopular fot the broken events we had before, many ppl get used to get so much for almost nothing and I fear EME 5th anniversary will be unpopular for the same reason of past events were just to rewarding.
Strongbox event is an event for EME, not for us. Because most players have to buy keys with EMP if they didn't already horde them. The jackpots aren't worth it this time around anyways. So far since the event has been on, I've seen maybe 5 people tops win something on CH. Either people aren't trying (Which thats probably what it is) or the RNG is just horrible to win something.
and another thing is that the chance is awfully low, i've seen barely 3 people getting jackpots, and i was on for several hours since the event started. I opened around 150 keys too, got a Rainbow Mount from a strongbox but no jackpots, which makes me think EME set the rate incredibly low because they consider 2k feed/alka a jackpot too good
remember some of the past strongbox events, we had one with chance for 5 smart dyads, alkas and feed, etc. and not with a chance this low, ofc events are appreciated, but this one is a fail
Personally I don't think people are using their keys this time around. The only thing that is actually worth it is the smart dyads, semis, and maybe the feedstock. Everything else is just ehh.
Most events have been ruined because of frequency and absurd rewards.
yeah, OK, so you want ppl this weekend, kill IOD bams that they have killed for the past year thousands of times? Play Elin Ninja which was released last year? Run dungeons that they ran 100 times at least which drops nothing they need. Or lvl up another alt when lvling is boring and sucks. People that playing the game are looking for more fun at weekend, at any other online game, including MOBA like Smite, they do it. b/c more fun, more hype to play, more reason to play.
Tera players, players like me which plays on daily basis, need events because everything has been done by them multiple times. no content, so events are mandatory at this point. I don't cry for events to be rewarding or similar stuff, just at this point events is the only thing that changes the repetitive environment of the game. So this generation suck because you can't think and analyze for a minute that what the heck is happening in Tera. You can see a massive different of players activity when there is an event and when there is not one.
I want content, but we know EME can't do it. Gladly they were always good at publishing the game, that is why people expect them to give us event on weekends because lack of content hurting Tera badly.
