News: For EU Players: Win a trip to SOE Live

[Shogun]

but what exactly do you mean by "score"?

the best K/D ratio or the most xp gained, or something different?
damn, right now i even had the chance to play 24/7 and certainly get to the finals, but as a support-only player i would have zero chance on the grand prize.

I'm gonna laugh so hard if Daddy makes it to Vegas...

A EU TR representative is going to be a (the) russian. Pretty symbolic isn't it?

Ahahaha, talking about the Iron Curtain... Either way, I just don't think the whole "score" idea makes sense. There're at least 3 Europeans I can name who deserve a ticket without even playing.

P.S. Oh, it's visa-based... It's not that bad, then, I guesss. I doubt it would be much of a problem to wrap up an invitation from SOE if it comes to that, afterall they are supposed to be people's persons when it comes to community management. At any rate, the comment about Daddy was more of a joke. Woodman has 2 TR that beat his score by a mile.

another question, how come the first stage lasts for 2 weeks? isn't that way too long time?
do we really have to nerd so hard for 14 consecutive days? isn't just one week a more "human" target?

Peace lol

To be honest I was going back and forward on this myself we thought if we spread it out longer than a week then people who would miss a few days could also still potentially have a chance. As I said we will take feedback from this one and optimise the next ones.

But I want to go now!

While it is nice that there is the chance to win, basing it purely around score encourages kill whoring and as others have said it will also encourage those who are willing to give up everything else for two weeks to do so, potentially damaging their relationships, careers and even health.

Aannnd its fucked.


The hyper boosts just released today completly screw the whole thing.

They give you 100% XP boost (instead of 50% as the other boosts) for 1 or 3 days, depending on wich one you buy.

Given the nature of this compettion, not buying them means you are pretty much out of luck.


To be fair, the whole competition was pretty screwed from the beginning, as you had to have the 50% XP boost + 50% from the subscription to even have a chance.


Pete: I hope you guys have some way to track base score, means before any modifiers like the subscription, boosts, population etc.

I do also hope that the 12v12v12 at the end is without any boosts or stuff.

Otherwise its not "may the best dude with plenty of time to game win", but rather "may the dude with plenty of time and plenty of money win".

Seems fair to me they've put the money in after all.

The final should surely just be the person who gets the most points in 1 hour. Anything else would be pointlessly messy.
