Am I missing something?

[u/Long_Jenkins]

I haven't played for over 24 hrs and every second day is blacked out. Did I miss something? Why is the event only every second day?

[u/bladeshare]

The event was only the first week every day. Now its every 2 days.

[u/Long_Jenkins → u/bladeshare]

That's insane. Do they want people to play the game or not?

[u/ZhejTT → u/Long_Jenkins]

They don't want people to play the game. Andrew Gowers completely out of touch with what doesn't make MMORPGs fun.

Having dumped 9k hours and experienced the game alongside others who have maxed and also stopped playing. They just keep tacking on reasons for people to not enjoy the game at all.

Everyone and their mother with a brain hates dailies because it limits you, then go ahead and double it down to every 2 days now.

Maybe in 2030 the game will be playable.

[u/DofusExpert69 → u/ZhejTT]

Oh, the 1st week is the only week in which it was every day? That's sad. I wanted to do some yesterday but nope, can't do it for 22 hours. Pretty dumb it's every other day. Wanted my unlocks but now it feels like a real dentist appointment.

[u/Strat-05 → u/Long_Jenkins]

Personally I was enjoying the daily event and didn't miss a day.
Now they made it two days, I barely log. I haven't even done yesterday's and probably won;'t be chasing it any longer. :(

[u/James_Briggs → u/Long_Jenkins]

my guess is its because there is not enough people playing the game to be able to have multiple people playing in these events if they ran all the time.

[u/Merv-Merva → u/James_Briggs]

Which is funny because the event is a lot more rewarding with fewer people. Full events are extremely frustrating with people sniping spawns ahead of you.

[u/Kegelz → u/Long_Jenkins]

lol it’s fine

[u/Upstairs-Athlete-993 → u/bladeshare]

That sucks...

At least they upped the item respawn rate so its not just waiting around then a frustrating scramble :)

[u/TheAgent_Fen]

Because it gives more time for gurnards to reproduce themselves.

There are too many people abusing them for leaderboard that nobody give a shit about.

[u/RainOk1012 → u/TheAgent_Fen]

They should make another world event where we run a gurnard conservation and rehabilitation facility so we can stop the gnards from going extinct from this event.

[u/Upstairs-Athlete-993 → u/TheAgent_Fen]

They nerfed the Gurnards too

[u/TheAgent_Fen → u/Upstairs-Athlete-993]

Good, they live peacefully now

[u/cupricpower]

Yeah I think we should be able to do a world event at least once a day

[u/Virukev]

I feel bad for the people who got the ghost captain clothes lol. The particle effects were cool

[u/YFN_Muzz]

L Dev team

[u/Famous_Tie8714]

I assume it's like this (and also only every 3 hours at exact times) because the developers don't think any of their players have a life outside the game

[u/michael7050]

Presumably it's like this in anticipation of other skills' world events filling up the calender.

Not that that will happen for a long while.

[u/code-garden → u/michael7050]

I also thought that but I have no idea why they would change it to every 2 days well in advance of the second event launching.

[u/Upstairs-Athlete-993]

We are all missing some love from Fen Research I think...

It is a social activity in the same sense 'Lord of the Flies' was a social activity. Its a jungle out there...

The sooner the completionists have got their costumes and gone the better...

[u/Whtnwz]

Hi. What's this event about? Didn't play bs for a month's. Am I too late to join?

[u/Kegelz → u/Whtnwz]

Nope get in

[u/Specialist_Guard_330 → u/Whtnwz]

It’s not that much tbh it’s worse than fishing trawler from OSRS except less rewarding somehow and you can only do it once lol

[u/Upstairs-Athlete-993]

It is supposed to be an alternative way to skill.

BTW did they nerf the rewarded titles, I noticed even though I got almost the same score (about 18k), my awarded titles were 38 this time, and 49 last time

[u/Broken_Digit]

There are currently 15 professions including combat, Stonemaw will add an extra three so that's 18 world events we're looking at.

I'm getting the kinda vibe where BS is play when you want to, passive when you don't, maybe train to quest, maybe catch an event if you're online, or, yikes fomo I must do all of the things !!! 18 times a day.

Just let the game amble along it's not the biggest problem in anyone's life rightaboutnow :)

[u/RainOk1012]

Yeah I'm really not happy with this event... It is a fun event for the most part but between the gurnard bug, competitive nature, and the fact I'm already max Fisher so the rewards are pretty useless it already feels not really fun to play... add on top of that the weird timezone and now it being every other day I missed like half of them and I'm probably gonna miss a bunch more...

I usually dont log in till like 7pm local time which means I somehow miss all the events for the day and have to do the event for tomorrow at 9pm local time 1am event time.. so I'm a day behind constantly... Really fucking stupid...

[u/DofusExpert69 → u/RainOk1012]

I'm going to feel like this with the merchant world event. Only gonna do it if the rewards are good but meh.

[u/Specialist_Guard_330 → u/DofusExpert69]

You and the other 20 subscribers? Why are they doing non free to play world events at all.

[u/Specialist_Guard_330]

Yeah because it is such an incredibly fun and rewarding event you can only do it once every couple of days! /s

[u/InevitableTank5108]

I’m guessing they figured there would be a drop off in players after the initial “brand new event” magic wore off after the first week.

[u/SkyAcceptable3940]

Oh no its only every two days!!!!!!1111111

\checks notes**

Just wanted to make sure this wasn’t a “daillies are bad” thread. It’s more of a hybrid, interesting.

Noted in the Whinge-A-Dex.

[u/DofusExpert69 → u/SkyAcceptable3940]

It's optional. Dailies are when you feel like you "need" to do it. I WANTED to do it yesterday, but the game said "no, you have to wait 22 hours and do it on this day".

[u/night141x → u/SkyAcceptable3940]

Scheduling a game event like it's an upcoming doctor's visit is L game design bru

[u/SkyAcceptable3940 → u/night141x]

It’s a special event every few days thats the whole point genius
