    Mission report PFEU hunt number 58

    Objective: Oratan
    Location: Implaceble Firebase
    Goals: Thin out numbers to grant easier acces for hunters to complete their own designated mission.

    Report;
    Upon arrival it seemed clear the Oratan infestation at the Firebase was big. The team of 8 armed recruits and 2 healers split up in 3 teams. To thin out the Thugs around the base. All went fine until we encountered more soldiers with IFN objectives.
    During a quick discussion we changed our goals to higher maturities, main reason being that the soldiers present had Thugs as objectives.

    End result is something to be pleased about. Entire area was swiped and the Oratan infestation reduced to a mere handfull.....
    For now.....

    Hello everyone,

    I am running a small test for some new PFEU events to do on Arkadia. Initially my thought was to try out an instance run. However seeing as the instances are still a bit dodgy and I cant get any clear information on whats going or when things will be running smooth enough to enter them with a team I decided to try something else.
    On the event calander for Febuary 28 I put up something called "PFEU's Puny Bash" with some nice prizes. Free to enter, only put up 40 tickets because of the respawn rate maybe still being a bit strange. I did put up a health max of 115 and no vehicles. So it will be a foot race more or less :).
    Tell me what you guys think of it and leave feedback here incase its needed :).
    Happy hunting

    Well, the health limit knocks me out of it, but otherwise, sounds like an awesome idea...

    The health max kicks me to the curb also. But not complaining. It leaves the event open for more of the newer players. :)

    Good to hear the feedback comming in. Regarding the health limit, yes I thought about it for a long time. For event area 2 with the punies it made sense to put some limit in to keep the lvls joining in a bit on the lower side. However there are still other event area's I might do some tests on.
    The tickets were limited as well yes, in my previous experience the respawn rate in the area was rather low. So limiting the amount of participants made sense :). However maybe a shorter event time with more tickets is an option :D

    thanks for the feedback so far. Looking forward to Saturday :)

    If you are creating the event in the event area, you may also want to consider to check if you can set it so participants are not allowed to use rocket or grenade launchers. There have been complaints about the usage of those weapons during the event.

    Event is over now. Seemed to be pretty good aside from some lag and looting issues. Respawn rate was pretty good and able to keep up with people hunting. Some were using explosives which is a bit sad, but cant prevent that sadly enough :(.
    However here are the results for the event this time:
    1: Fakkacia Fall Sophistica
    2: Igor Ceaseer Genesis
    3: Maelcum Hideo Newmark

    Congradulations to these winners and ty all those who participated in todays event :D

    wow! gratz to all winners and who took part. unbelievable i won something!!! :biggrin2:

    one hour of constant shooting netted me some ammo, a small rubio and a vault key 2.

    thx for this event!!:banana::banana: :yay:
    after i had won something it actually was fun. but throughout i was really pissed at the massive lag, sometimes maybe 10-20 cadavers were around me and loot pill not working in any way thus ´next target´ button was useless too and no loot came through. well done MA!!:banhammer1:

    enuff ranting and hard facts: used around 20ped and without prizes i would have had a slight loss of 1.20 peds after almost 400 killed creatures. but 7mins b4 end i made it back to top 3(was at rank 2 in the first few mins:cowboy:) cant exactly say which loot i got cuz of lag but hair gel sure was part of it and later in inventory i found a piron gun with 93pecs too. ;)

    now another rant/warning.
    later that night i used the vault key 2 and entered, big mistake. :facepalm3:
    in there i encountered to date the most annoying mob i have seen. these grasshoppers are bad to aim at and their movement and attack is really disturbing and not very pleasant to look at. and besides the overall design of these vaults is crap. u enter one of two rooms, sometimes attacked through the door by the mobs u cant see and cant attack, and are after shooting one almost instantly attack by all mobs in there. big waste of peds!!
    sure i should have done some research before i got into it but in the end it was aweful , and the return was bad too:poop:. some shrapnel and a gun(pbr-12(l) i think it was) the gun sold within seconds which is a little piece of luck but the experience in there nevertheless was horrible and i will think twice before entering again. :2pec:

    to end this with some positive words i want to thank Simone for setting this event up, always fun to have some people to chat with while killing stuff and maybe win with a bit of luck some prizes too. thx

    Big grats to the winners! :)

    Looked like it was a great event. I regret that I was on RT with the other event and I couldn't make it to the even myself (and even wasted a ticket from someone who could have participated).

    Given the feedback I have recieved I made a new Puny Bash for March 14. Seeing that the spawns were decent enough I upped the amount of tickets to 60 since some mentioned they were 2 late to grab one. Nice prize for the number 1 place, a Smallfry-1 Rifle.
    I did again put Sal'Diresh keys in it for the winners, but only lvl 1 since its just cheaper to do and I do want to give people a bit of an option to do something different then just hunt outdoors :).

    Good luck and have fun :) Looking forward to new feedback

    Puny Bash didnt really get setup the way it should have been. I thought it was setup as HSL, but turns out it was set on most votes -.-.
    Apologies for this will see what I can do

    Edit: Looked if I could maybe change it, sadly enough no. Its a bit strange since I know almost 100% sure I put HSL in and people who signed up initially also mentioned they saw it as a HSL. So not sure what went wrong there.
    Will see to maybe setup another Puny Bash soon properly setup this time as a HSL (also making screenshot before I finalize :p)
