<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>I love the dark, and the moon. Better than last year. I was thinking though... maybe instead of the darkness killing our visibility, it&amp;#39;d be cool to see some fog. I know it&amp;#39;s late now, but I just thought it was a cool idea, especially with the zombies.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; And yea, the crashing is really hard to deal with. Maybe if it didn&amp;#39;t break the evade shield so fast it would help us get away from them. But that does sort of defeat the point of having zombies -- if we&amp;#39;re always running from them.&lt;br&gt; </description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I really like Holloween in the matrix....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;only one thing...the zombies.&lt;br&gt; i dont have a problem crashing.&lt;br&gt; the Spawn rate/timer its INSANE, gets very annoying.&lt;br&gt; No problem killing them all, but there are just to much to fast, &lt;br&gt; dont even have time to loot them, before the new ones spawn.&lt;br&gt; or someone else loots my stuff when it times out.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I already got most of the masks in one night&lt;br&gt; - francine, assassin, tengu mask&lt;br&gt; - and the common ones&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;ps. there is a little bug with the pumkins.&lt;br&gt; if you move during activation(in combat with zombies)...it bugs out and it doesnt spawn lupines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the rest i really like this event, gives a challange, i really onjoy it&lt;br&gt; Keep it up&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>Yeah, I&amp;#39;m having the same problems with the client crashing .... it appears that anytime I see a zombie I crash. I then try to jack in and auto-jackin to the spot where I crash and oopsie theres a zombie in the area and I automatically crash. I tried HJ&amp;#39;ing away but I crash in midair .... this sucks when all you want is some masks.&lt;br&gt; </description>

<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>I am very upset with these jackolanterns.. the boxes disappear when you open them once, regardless of whether you take the stuff.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I&amp;#39;ve been farming the ENTIRE day for a Tengu mask. I finally got one and my inventory was full. I deleted an item and went to reopen the box and it had disappeared... I&amp;#39;m not really enjoying the patch anymore where I have to farm endlessly and not even have a decent shot at getting a rare item. I didn&amp;#39;t get Gargoyle last year because of similar issues.. sigh.&lt;br&gt; </description>

<description>i loves me halloween patch ^_^&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; but i&amp;#39;ve already gotten all masks, even the rare ones, within one night of the event &lt;img src=&quot;/mxo/images/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;SMILEY&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; and if anyone was in camon c on recursion the night the event started, you have a reason to&amp;nbsp; hate me, as i ninja looted the assasin mask from one of you ^^ &lt;br&gt; </description>

<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The crashes are nothing to do with having a certain type of cpu,,,, what its down to is the low quality servers that soe run mxo on, its amazing that for one of, if not the highest priced monthly tags for any mmo out there that we are subject to lowend servers... before som1 says station pass i dont hav it only mxo coz the rest of the games quite frankly are crap imo...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are other spawns of lanterns/zombies in other parts of megacity which I have found I do not crash there,,, only the main populated (busy) spots seem to be the crash party spots.... e.g. camon park furihata being like instant crash zones for me...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;but seeing as i`ve found a couple non-crash spots I now have every mask except the assassin one, i have some 40+ of each balthail, Tm, warrior and Etheral,, a whopping 16 hours fighting zombies and still no assassin mask. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I thought events were supposed to be fun? (ooo grind grind grind, sound familiar?)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>Just what exactly is the drop rate for a &amp;quot;rare&amp;quot; mask? With over 100 masks from the Zombies and not one &amp;quot;rare&amp;quot; mask to show for it, it&amp;#39;s getting a little tedious. Perhaps next year all masks could just be &amp;quot;common&amp;quot; ones. Would certainly make things feel more fun. Farming for stuff is great for a few hours, but it soon gets old. These events are exceedingly few and far between, so why not just concentrate on making them fun and removing the need for creating a feeling of boredom in the form of endless farming to get a desirable mask? Other than that, some nice elements in this years version, Zombies are certainly fun to fight - although waits between spawns are too long (yeah, I know, bring more meat for faster spawns, but what of us on connections that lag out real bad when too many people are around?)&lt;br&gt; </description>

<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What would be really nice is if they done the same thing as they done in the blue sky event,, where we received a seperate critical mission at the end of the event which gained us a box of sumthin, (cant remember lol) that we could trade for one of the blue sky event items be it the blue sky/security hats/tops.....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At least then everyone will be guaranteed to be able to get that one special mask they wanted....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;again crashes are not in my opinion cpu or client related i think they are very much still down to&amp;nbsp;region servers not being able to handle the amount of connections required therefor causing a crash....&amp;nbsp; I crash in some places but not in others (eg. diferent region server)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;Tz_&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Re:Halloween Update Discussion</title>
<description>Personally I&amp;#39;m very happy with how things are going.&amp;nbsp; Sure there&amp;#39;s a couple of bugs, like missing zombie animations and invisible boxes, but those can be overcome.&amp;nbsp; I don&amp;#39;t know what problems others are having (or rather why), but I seem to be running fine.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt; Within a few minutes of logging in I found four different masks and after spending a couple of days on it I&amp;#39;ve collected all the commons and two out of three rares.&amp;nbsp; Some dropped really often, like Balthial and Ethereal while others dropped seldom like Succubus and Nightmare - in fact I ended up scrounging a Nightmare from a friend.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;ve got two assassins and a Gargoyle but I&amp;#39;ve had no luck finding Tengu.&amp;nbsp; This is a good thing.&amp;nbsp; Could you imagine the complaining if everyone had found every mask in the first hour or two of play?&amp;nbsp; Before the first day of the event was out people would have been bored with it already - &amp;quot;Oh I&amp;#39;ve got all the masks and I&amp;#39;m sick of fighting Zombies let&amp;#39;s go do something else.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp; Having rare masks provides a challenge to keep players interested for the length of the event.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt; Overall I think the team did a great job on this event although I could wish it were a little brighter so I could still see where I&amp;#39;m going when I run missions, but hey, it&amp;#39;s only for a week.&amp;nbsp; Thanks guys!&lt;br&gt; </description>
