Caldari Prime:
While I personally didn't play Dust when the event took place, this event changed the maps. I like that. Also the idea to actually change the story of the eve universe is something I would like to see more often.
Templar Event:
This was an okay event. The rewards weren't really that good but at least you could influence the outcome a little bit. But it depended too much on actually seeing a templar and then killing him. Due to this it was kinda hard to accomplish the goal. Especially when the templar players decided to hide.
Human Endurance:
Not really my piece of cake. But it's nice to get some rewards for stuff like getting kills and so on. Things you can influence.
Kaimeras Objective:
No. Just no. I didn't like it at all. Because it depends too much on your team. Even if you're the best player (regarding warpoints) in the whole match you can still lose because your team is bad. And then you get nothing.
Caldari Bootcamp:
The best thing about this event is that it encourages playing after hitting the cap. The worst thing is, that it does exactly the opposite before you hit the cap. Just giving bonus SP for the first X WP of a match will never encourage playing. Sure, most players might get not more than 3000 WP a match, but there's always the chance that you do get more. And then you lose out on your reward. This is something that should NEVER happen. It punishes better players.
Ideas for future events:
What I would really like to see is something with special objectives. Let's say you make a new event like Caldari Prime. But then, instead of normal battles, you get special objectives. Like salvaging something in a ship wreck for example. I would play stuff like that without any further rewards (even though that would be nice). It could be some kind of Domination mode to begin with. But later you could get more creative. Maybe something like capture the flag, where you have to go to the ship and get the blackbox, then return it to your base.
In general I would like events to tie in with the Eve universe more. Events which are played in Dust and Eve Online at the same time. And then both sides would influence each other. Dust mercs on the ground could capture skyfire batteries which then start to shoot and ships in space. May that be NPCs or enemy players. When a ship goes down we could see how it crashes into the planet. It could even fall onto the battlefield. Requiring you to find new ways around the map. |
