ahoy, fellows! this just in - lineage 2 world is going to experience alien invasion on saturday, april 20th at exactly 13-00 gmt+0. we don’t know who they are or what they want. but they are definitely up to no good. what will it be? the clash of civilizations? destruction of the world of elmoreden? evaporation of all living creatures? i guess, the only chance to know for sure is to be there and be ready. *the event is only for the clans which agreed to participate.
for ppl who have problems with the legal time 13:00 gmt+0 14:00 western european summer time: uk, portugal 15:00 central european summer time: germany, spain, france, poland 16:00 eastern european summer time: bulgaria, greece, lithuania mod edit: to reflect that these are summer times
server isn't gmt+0 but the gm use it to notify the time of events because it doesn't change in summer/winter. server time is central european (summer now)
yep it was announced here but server time is not being used for this event gmt + 0 is the time used to schedule all things from events to maintenance etc as its a static time zone that never changes.
alien invasion event well, 100% disappointment. it wasn't fun to waste 40min of saturday to get exp buffs for your character especially when you have max lvl on main and dual class. we expected more fun and a bit better rewards. for example alien masks as trophy (reward) would be absolutely perfect.
alien event it would be nice that someone explained to me this event, because as far as i noticed it only was a complete waste of time. there was 0 info of what we had to do, "your clan leader have been kidnaped, save him" that is all the event info... seriously how many sleepless nights did you spent thinking in this plot? a party or so found our leader or found whatever was suposed to do and got their awesome reward... nevit 2h and pa blessing, that is very helpfull on lvl 99 toons. of course no gm had enought insight to even say that the event finished and we should stop movign thought the map randomly. this has not been a bad event, this has been a complete mockery and my most disappointing event in l2 from c1 until today. please refrain from doing this in the future.
but really, we gathered 60ppl in command channel for clan event, clan event designed for one party...
it seems that the alien invasion forces were not ready to face such a powerful opposition, that is why they have cowardly fled. congratulations to all the participants, but beware - the invaders might come back in greater numbers one day. we are going to have more clan and pvp events in future, and we need your feedback to prepare and organize them properly. please, don't hesitate to share your thoughts and opinions, as we always consider them and try to stick to them as much as possible. thank you! have a good time and good luck on your adventures! regards,
hi! the event was very interesting in the beginning but at the end of it was suprisingly too quick and ended with common pvp event. here are the tips: - please add notice how many ppl can participate - i've called most of my clan at that time (~35 ppl) and only 7 actually participated - different ending - there was a pvp and we expected some pve action. so my members were anihilated by 99 party - riddles was nice but had actually no connection to what happened - actually i dont know why pt members were waiting 40min in the desired place - were we waiting for other clan to solve a riddle? + for role playing (masks and generally speach) + for suprise which was capturing clan leader :-]
the main aspects covered should be: - less dependent on luck cuz luck is the worst factor ever! - the different grps (in this event for eg.) should be checked for quantity and then kind of equally distributed to different locations where pvp's could mb happen. (to avoid braindead zerging) (which grps the clan leader decides ofc but the amount the gm can ask for) - rewards should be somewhat worth the effort. i mean we are alrdy 1year++ live and not many ppl actually need "just" exp buffs :d they are nice but shouldn't be the main reward. (especially if the event wasnt dedicated to casual players and was kinda clan based, like in this case) - moar pvp! but the location should be chosen carefully because none wants to gate fight between peace zone and pvp place - any other creative features to make big forces split instead of having just 1 huge pvp. (this way the clan leader needs to tactically know which grps can manage to fight vs how many ppl. example 7v14 but not every grp can go vs every grp 7v14, so if unlucky even top grps can get into a bad situation and just tactically lose or outnumbered forces can win by strength smaller 7v14's which will make them actually win a total pvp of 50 vs 100 which wouldn't have been possible in one big pvp. this avoids the problems which are caused in clan vs clan braindead mass pvps!)
