I thought events were supposed to be fun...

i finised the course in liek 2 hours?? last part was intense though, had some dogs on my tail shooting me while i break outta there
But it gives instead a satisfaction from completing the event. I agree this event is geared towards dedicated players . I also agree that its a bit too hardcore.
This jump quest however is not a challenge,... it's a chore.
And thusly I'll get more satisfaction out of flipping burgers at MCdonalds for two hours and then buy a heart with real money. (or better yet, spend it on something worthwhile.) Instead of wasting 2 hours on one of the worst bits of game design I've ever seen.
a chore if you are good at Jump quests...a nightmare if you are me, the most unjumpy person in MS history.
Same. Last time I couldn't even get past the conveyor belts of B4. This time I managed to get all the way to B1. I've been here for the past 3 hours, still can't get past the first laser which pretty much gives you an idea how good I'll be at the steam part.
There's different levels of dedication. Some may say having over 6k in legion, a main above 230, or over 450 in MC dedication. Some would base it on damage, gear or items collected. If it was the former, I'd count. I'd probs count towards the latter too. That doesn't change the fact that I'm still stuck here.
For an event that was "nerfed" for casual players.. this is still intense.
If they told me I had to do Hene pet park JQ 1000x to unlock these androids, I'll be fine with it. I don't mind doing it over and over and over as long as I can do it. This one just kills me and brings me back. So what I end up doing over and over and over is to get back to the point where I die. This is starting to feel more like an ad for suicide than a jump quest.
I wouldn't be this salty if this wasn't a time limited event. But it is. I know I have limited time to learn it and limited entries to the coin farming place. The pressure to learn it with enough time to farm the coins for the stuff I want is just adding to the frustration.
Yeah, I just really wanted to participate in the event. I always enjoy them. I skipped it last year after trying for weeks and figuring out I won't have enough coins given the then buggy investigation mode. I really don't like quitting either but I may have to.
What this event reminded me of though, is how toxic this community can be. I saw all the posts about the 88k kills for Haste here and on reddit, and just complaint posts in general, the comments are downright brutal. Meh. Whatever.
Just something for Nexon to consider, for haste you had a week to do 88k kills and you can do it whenever. Don't feel like doing it? Do something else, your kill count won't reset. Wondroid JQ, leave it once, start over. I don't see why the logic of the complaint is so hard to see.
I'm not sure if they changed anything at B1 (normal mode) with the amount of steams on the conveyor belt. There weren't many but then again, most of my runs were hard mode. So I might have forgotten about it. Normal one seems so easy now when I did on friend's character.
They did add 'checkpoints' halfway in the stages. If you pass that point and died, or get an accidental report, you will get send to that checkpoint. Glitches still exist although I triggered it once on my friend's character, the button to open a door didn't work.
And at F1, it's supposed to be the easiest part, turns out to be freaking annoying. You remember you could lure out the guards before starting the sequences to break the barrier? But now the guards don't show up until you actually started the sequence. I had to redo that stage probably 6-8 times...
But yea since they added checkpoints halfway on each stage? I saw them at least in B2 and B1. Especially for B1 it made things easier. Since you could retry from the checkpoint part instead of redoing everything from the beginning of B1. Easier to master a JQ that way.
I finished Adam and Eve's JQ, they are the same one from their memory (their story), while both of them were trying to escape (hard mode, the same as the other wondroids).
Hey sorry to hear your run didn't go well. I just wanted to let you know, you do need to rescue at least one Wondroid (which would be Asteroid in this case) in order to unlock the Asteroid, level 70/120 hearts, the nx dress, lv70/120 shoulder& belt.
And the heart only works on wondroids.
The guards on F1 killed me several times but it eventually I finally survived.
Since then I've been stuck on Rhea. It's either I would fall through the gaps or she would. Had no idea B4 was different from Aster until I looked up a video.
The furthest I've gotten so far is a door/gate away from the conveyor belt. I jumped alongside Rhea. She fell through the floor when there wasn't even a hole. So I go back and this time I throw her. I jump over and I fall through the floor. Has been that way for several days and several attempts now. Starting to wish I can toss myself over as well.
