Feedback Winter Solstice Festival 2017

The problems with the turrets is the increased lag since the server switch. The turrets used to be easy to navigate when I had a stable ~13 ms lag but not anymore with a variable 85 to 300 ms and up lag with rubberbanding spikes.

 

Overall is an ok event.The rewards for event/mini EDIT mostly but we all got used to it.The rewards from the cave and the calendar EDIT even more.We are asked to pay 680k ander for a royal gem and we are rewarded with a code offering 3 coins or 1 amphora key at probably the most important event of the year.DSO in a nutshell.Asks you to sell both of your kidneys and some other organs to afford latest tier of gems and rewards you with an amphora key which gives u like 1 draken if u are lucky.Well done.

 

Bug in challenge 2. Safe zone by entrance. If you start running on the part that kills you then need to turn round to get back to safe zone you still keep dieing. Only option is to return to kingshill.

 

Might not be a bug. I remember this being a part of the later minis before.

 

Well, yes something is off with the safe zone in the entrance of the map but im not sure if its a bug and also im not sure what you mean by" you keep dying and you go to the city". I did it by mistake myself and i kept losing hp until i reached 1 hp then it was all okay. Did you die because you tried to go back to have a chance to reach the next safe zone and died in the middle of the map or you died inside the safe zone?

 

These are the safe zones

 

First time in the entrance "safe zone" second time I used the entrance portal to goto kingshill.

The safe zones shown are those on route. The entrance area must be a safe zone else you would start dieing as soon as you entered the map would you not? Certainly was in challenge 1.

 

Iirc correctly, the entrance is functionally a safe zone until you leave it in mini 2, but you can't go back to it. Not sure if the same thing applies in mini 3. Not sure if that is intended or not, but it is not enough of a bug/feature for me to care.

 

It is a bug.
The start of any map is a safe place ... it is a place where players are preparing for the run. Not just that ... when few players enter in same time one player enters by the door and the other players are being pushed far away in the cold and they don't even know about it since the map is still generating at their PC ... so trying to get back on the start is not working and they will die.
I have reported that bug in 2016.
Also ... i have reported the other bug which I call "god mode bug". Both bugs reported back in 2016 (R178)

 

That happened to me last night. Not sure how it happened but at least I could run around and kill things...even though I was surrounded by ice.

 

It hasn't happen to me, however, i have noticed some sort of barriers or invisible objects near most of the cages, i can't walk through from one side, but i can from the other.

 

Anyone noticed this problem? There seems to be invisible object here, doesn't let you go through it. You can pass it by either from below or above. Not that big of an issue, but when you are racing with time, every second matters (red circle does not point exactly to it, more like general location).

It's located next to first cage ( or last, when running from Kranparus) as shown on map.

I try to read most of the threads but did not found any mentions ( not looking at TS threads though)

Speaking about the same I think, the one I mentioned was most obvious for me ( though when I think about it, most of cages require special approach)

 

There are also instances where enemies die, but their collision box doesn't die immediately too. You can't walk over where the dead mob was for a couple seconds after the kill.

 

That i have noticed as well, but i think it is different since it happens in many maps in many areas. In this case, it is always at the exact same spots.

 

This is one of the annoying things about DSO, the huge amount of tiny, invisible, unnecessary, EDIT obstacles.

 

if you farm enough coins can you open BIG PRESENT twice?

 

Is this really a question? hahahah. Answer me this question and you will find the answer: If you have a key(in this case the 1500 coins) and you use it to open a locked chest, will you be able to use the same key to reopen that chest and take its contents, after you have already opened it once and have already taken everything it has inside?

 

No, but you can still farm coins for next year, if you have time and if you think it will work the same way.

 

As the other people have said, no. However, you can save any extras for next year. I didn't have time to finish last year because life threw a curveball at me, but it meant I started this year with over 600. I will finish this year with ease and I hope to build up a nice cushion of 300-500 coins (if I'm not too consumed with trying to get some last min gold ranked leaderboards.)

 

Mentioned on wiki but not found yet is Concentrated Solstice Crystal.

Has it been discontinued? If not how can you get it?
