Hello guy, when I started to play MS again in 2014, the first thing i was curious was flag race, I joined each of them but since i was in old guild which no one online or maybe there was like 2 or 3 online but they don't run flag race. I changed guild because I wanted to have more guildies do flag race with me, it was first needed for me when I tried to find the guild to join. But since MS started to use UTC time, reset time changed and so Kiritas daily, flag race daily also changed into difficult time when not many people even online to do it. It is starting to have less and less people join flag race. The hours of flag race in old days were 3PM, 10PM, 12AM, 1AM, 2AM (EST), although 3PM has less people. I loved these 10PM, 12AM, 1AM, 2AM hours even though too late but I stayed awake just to run it. Plus more people play this hours, there were always like full 3 maps of flag race runners, even 4th map open. The front page of score in flag race were so good at end of week, 1st guild maybe get 8k~10k points and last guild from top 10 guilds maybe 1k.
But now... we are using UTC time, the flag race new times are 8AM, 3PM, 5PM, 6PM, 7PM (EST). Who even has time to do 8AM one? it's time for people in US go to school or work. I tried to do it sometime before i go to work but failed, why? because it need 8 people for the race to start. And 3PM, 5PM, 6PM, 7PM are even worse, now these hours, only like sometime full or not even full for just 1 map. Now at end of the week, 1st guild from top 10 only got like 3~4k, last guild top 10 maybe got like 400. It wasn't fun anymore with these hours.
What I want to suggest here is either if you can change it back to normal time or adding few more hours in for flag race like after reset time, Adding 3~5 more racing time in?
Also I want to suggest for more option in guild's Noblesse Skill like more exp buff % or Knockback %, more drop rate %, something like that.
I love MS, but I have busy schedule, work full day time, and can only play night time. Hope more players agree with me on this post, thank you for reading.
