Good evening people!

 

Just a quick question about the new event as i seem to have gotten in a pickle with this event.

 

 

 

I was recently members and have now run out of my subscription. Suffice to say i have got in my inventory 2 thousand plus FOG tokens and no room in bank (as i have maxed out all members available slots). Now with trying to get down the hole for the first part of this event it wont let me go down until my inventory is cleared. What should i do?!

 

 

 

Edit: Of course at moment going back to membership is not an option!

I think this is going to do the first Holiday event I just completely ignore. The only point in holidays events are the rewards... 3 rewards a year, and they still have to repeat them?

i think you will regret it later if you don't get the reward now.

Another craptastic update with a failtastic reward. It could have been so much better there were so many other ideas sitting around the quest area that could have been possible GREAT rewards. But no, we get a cheap rubber chicken rip off of a huge nasty rotting looking carrot that we can bop people with and an emote.

 

 

 

The emote looks fantastic that's the best thing to have come out of this entire update.

 

 

 

Other Possible Better Easter Rewards:

 

 

 

Carrot Bed

 

Easter Toy Chest

 

Carrot Clock

 

Easter Egg Carpet

 

Easter Bunny Painting

 

Easter Bunny Suit

 

General Graardor Doll

The new emote "Around the world in eggty days" reminds me of the Road Runner from Looney Tunes.
That or Speedy Gonzalez. :thumbup:

 

 

 

I have to admit, the carrot really doesn't look like a carrot. It looks like one of my epic sewing failures when I was making stuffies with scrap cloth. :| Not to mention it's basically a copycat of the rubber chicken. I'm thankful we still have these events, but this event feels rushed in the making. :(

It's absurd to claim that we can't complain about poorly constructed events like this.

Nooooo! Undead chicken isn't the worst weapon anymore! :wall: Undead chicken gives -50 crush attack and this gives -100 and both use only crush! (Flowers and mouse toys give the same bonuses as Undead chickens, but Undead chicken is harder to get, so it's worse)

 

 

 

I tried killing a dark wizard with TEH CARROT and I hit zero's for 5 mins straight :D

Sigh. I was kinda expecting something a bit more... enjoyable. The emote was the best thing to come out of it, but there were so many obvious things from that event which could have been a great reward. Twice they dangled an Easter Bunny suit in front of us, an awesome idea for a reward, and then we got a giant carrot that doesn't look like a carrot and does the same thing as a rubber chicken. Come on! :evil:

Exactly, constructive criticism.

 

Unfortunately, all most people seem able to spew forth is the same tired "fail", "rubber chicken rip-off", "boring quest" that is coming from everyone else. It's neither criticism nor constructive. It's plain old bellyaching.

 

 

 

It wasn't as good as I thought it should be so I'm going to complain to anyone who'll listen without actually saying anything useful! ... :-s Please.

 

 

 

No one (not even me) has said "don't" complain, but a lot of people in here seem to think they're entitled to a lot more than their membership fees pay for.

THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P.

So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

Instead of Easter Ham, I offer a helping of Easter Spam:

 

 

 

I'd prefer a carrot suit to a bunny suit, thanks.

Yeah, come to think of it, when the guy removes the suit right there, he could have easily just given it to us instead of throw it away, or whatever.

 

 

 

Granted, most of us wouldn't have probably fit in that thing (it's a bit short), but I would have enjoyed freaking the crap outta people. "Hey kids, I'm giving away tradable nondegrading easter eggs!" *runs away*

The event was not as eggs-elent as I thought it would be :cry: :cry: :cry: .

 

 

 

 

 

As for the carrot, it's a faded orange on purpose, to show that the Easter bunny is tired and old- just like his carrot. Notice the leaf coming out of it is also rather dry and fallen, it's all on purpose.

Its kinda weird how its supposed to be a quest and it doesnt even give a quest point.

 

 

 

The actual plot was pretty good, But when you expect a normal quest reward and get the most ridiculos piece of junk of an equip.

 

 

 

Conclusion; F2F: Ok, P2P : Weak
