OK folks

Firstly, you can expect a post from @MartinSchulz later today with feedback from the dev team – in the meantime, here’s the feedback I’ve received.

PF acknowledges that the rewards for the Challenges aren’t in line with players’ expectation – and that by creating that expectation by promising ‘amazing’ rewards, they have disappointed a lot of players (including me). Although I’m a mod, I’m free to express my views as I see fit, and I’m very sorry that it turned out this way, particularly after the spectacular success of the Demeter challenge and upgrades.

Let’s keep that success firmly in mind! 🙂

Since the Challenges are entirely optional and don’t have any one-off rewards or event-related prizes, my advice is to ignore them completely unless you have huge amounts of resources to burn … instead, you should focus on the good parts of the event – either finishing Demeter or moving on to Jonathan’s contracts, which certainly deliver a positive return.

Although I don’t have details, I believe that there are further phases of the event still to come, and I’m looking forward to those. In the meantime, all feedback is being noted and passed to PF and the dev team.

Thanks for your patience 🙂

Teflonsean well the devs were 1/2 right. It does require huge amounts of resources but the rewards are less than amazing 😉

Too true ... 🙂
