Cant wait for the Mothman Equinox to end.
Dont get me wrong, I like the Event. Some of the Rewards are pretty cool, but it seems to come at the expense of all the other Events.
They dont seem to happen as often now and when they do hardly anyone does them.
In the last 3 days I've only seen 3 Nukes dropped. 2 Scorched and 1 Earl.
I'm trying to get my Raider Rep up, but there hasnt been a Moonshine Jamboree in days.
Always an Eviction Notice though, so at least I got that.

Yeah, so the sooner the Mothman Equinox is over, the sooner we can get things back to normal IMO.

Yep, what Ive been doing is after I do my dailies since I finished my weeklies by wed, I just sit on the work bench in the zone and minimize the game window and do other things while I let my character soak up the rewards. There literally is nothing else to do in game cause the other events are pretty much ignored if they drop around the same time the Mothman Equinox is running.
Must be certain times, then.

I'm up to my eyeballs in events, nukes, and my poor store is swarmed with players buying my mothman cultist outfits ( new and old ).

For heaven sake, this not even a week, at least this one is lot less annoying compared to Schorched Holiday. True that other event is pretty much ignored at the moment, hell, plenty is already ignored all the time I've been here (Project Paradise, everyone? each time it came, only one time players finish the event, 1 out of 20...), or jam packed like what (Eviction Notice, everyone? I prefer to stay clear of that because the loot pretty much causing never ending headache trying to sort your inventory all the time).

I'll admit though, if I got the same plan each time and nothing new, I also went mad...

For me, last night about 10:00 pm US eastern, a "Test your Metal" started. There seemed to be enough people on the sever at the time, so I showed up and waited 5 minutes for others to show up, but no one attended :( ... Failed the event because I figured, I could not do it solo. Has anyone attempted to do this alone/solo? If so, can it be done?
I hear you... have every single plan of that event, i barely do that event any more. Prefer Eviction Notice, way more of a challenge and it is way mopre fun for me (personally).

But hey there are still people that need some plans and do that event a lot which i understand.

Every "new" event is like this.

Hey now, hey now. Don't dream it's over.

You'll miss it once it's gone, because when it's gone so will the crowds. A lot of players will be taking a break at the end of the season.

You can observe the player count bump caused by the Equinox on sites such as Steam charts and Steam DB.

certain times and certain servers. Since this event went live I seen one nuke launched, some servers ive been on are active with events but most of the servers ive been on the events come and go with no one activating them. I check them cause I try to get into the events as I want to try and hoard the fallout first reward boxes for the next update. I stupidly been opening them up till I realized that they weigh less than the legendary weapon they give you upon opening.

Yep im on my fourth straight event and its a duplicate plan. I cant complain though my first run I got the backpack skin, and by the 4th run I had the bug zapper among numerous new items but lately its just duplicates for me. Thankfully I can just leave the game up in the background and let it collect rewards for the event while I am doing other things vs wasting my time taking part and getting yet another duplicate plan.

First off, great song, secondly of course, I dont complain about events its always nice to have an event you can bank on people being involved in, lots of events end up not starting cause no one cares to start them on many servers but these seasonal events when they show back up they always run through no matter what server you are on.

i've practically stopped doing it. if i do its once or twice in the morning than i do my own thing, i cant seem to get the plans.. at this point id be more interested in Aliens i need so many of thoe's weapon plans, this event doesn't offer anything i'm interested in except the Experience boost tome. the repetitive nature isn't doing it any favours and its over too quickly.

Just did another yet another known plan drop. At least I am stocking up on plans to sell though at a later date. Just insane that from what I can see there is a bunch of plans for this event and this is the first real time I am playing the event and only got like 6 different plans and now its just duplicates.

i do it 5-10 times a day, alternating 4 chars, to get plans and bullions.

at last, it goes quickly, compared to fastnacht, it can be done in 10 minutes.

sure, some other events don't show...

Project Paradise ? it's one event i do very rarely, one of my least liked. Maybe because when i started the game, i was completely lost there, frequently found myself alone dying vs lots of mobs :brotherblood:

The event sucks, and since there's literally nothing else to do in that barren dead game, you might as well uninstall it. No wonder players are all leaving.

It has failed twice while I was there.
Both times even when there is audible and text CLUE, I was left alone at the Waterside Pyre and no one came to help. Whatever chaos was going on the other two were destroyed.
Not enough people and couldn't kill things fast enough.

This whole preferred event thing sucks

For someone keep spamming everywhere, well, block then. You're the second one I had blocked.
