Events... Bad Timing

[Kralkral]

Why can't Fishing Contest, Outbreak, or Wq for Multiplayer Bug Catching be announced in advance? This would be good for all players globally. In my country, the event takes place at 2 a.m., and it's very difficult for me to play the game until that time. Without advance notice, participation in events will be very low. Not everyone logs in at the same time. Thanks.

(For example, someone else is doing the task I did at 3 a.m. at 8 p.m. I know this is something that can't be adjusted in this world. But at least a Discord ping would be really nice.)

 

Please add a ping on Discord, otherwise this Mexican cartel will come after me.

There is a ingame announcement every Sunday (Monday GMT+2 at daily reset) and 30 minutes before event start.

+You can speak to BCC Organizer to know time for MBCC (so you know the time of both since it's midnight or noon)

The problem isn't the in-game time, the problem is that it's only an in-game notification. It can be solved with a simple ping on Discord.

Hi @Kralkral

I hope I can provide you with some context.

 

In regards to our Multiplayer Catching Contest, they occur every Saturday at either 10:00 GMT+0 or 22:00 GMT+0, and usually alternate each week. Sometimes it will be the Fishing Contest at 22:00, and the next week at the 10:00 slot. This alternates so that that players will most likely have access to one of those slots, and be able to participate in each of the contests, even if on a bi-weekly basis. I understand your frustration, as like you, that first slot lines up to 3am for me. 

 

For World Quests, the monthly ones are announced ahead of time on our Discord in the "Announcements" section. When they go live, they are posted in the "Wq-Outbreaks-announcements" section. Additional World Quests can happen randomly during each month as well as surprises - those are not announced ahead of time. You can set up to receive notifications so you'll know the moment anything happens.

 

Outbreaks have been random surprises. As per the recent announcement on the Discord covering the possible changes to the next client, Outbreaks are being reworked. It sounds like they will still be random, but will be automated and much more frequent. Nobody will be able to make all of them, but over time, plenty of them should crop up in the time ranges that you will be able to participate in. This should be announced on the Discord. 

 

I hope you have found this information helpful

Fcc and bcc happens at the same time every weekend  just sometimes both interchanged. Why there should be a discord ping for that
