So for the House of Horrors, I'd increase the light radius. 90% of the time you don't see the whirlwinds and literally have no time to stop/avoid a red lantern ghost. That would help counter the clunky movement and the occasional rubberbanding.

For the Red/Green light... pfft! Drop the downtime to 5 minutes, to start with ('cause yeah, nah! It's downright disrespectful of players' time). Or at least extend the game's length. Otherwise, it's just not fun to wait 10 minutes, run once to the "MOG", get trolled by the wheelbarrow minigame and go back to waiting another 10 minutes, 'cause you don't have time to do 2 full runs if you don't fail right at the beginning.

PA, your event has great potential... If you could focus more on the fun part and less on the "keep players online" one. Don't spit on your own work of creating a new event with some random, out of the bottom ideas that just turn it into a "watch the paint dry" challenge.

I had lots of fun today. The minigame is an ancient children's game irl. Once you jot down the pattern of the Giant Shai it's extremely easy. You just stop before she finishes her sentence(before the da). It's not that hard if you've played it lots as a child. I do agree that the wording needs to change from Mod to Shai as it is the Shai that shouldn't spot you, not the robot.

 

As of the haunted minigame. I found that very entertaining to do with friends. However, bored trolls figured out that you can "kill" players in their pumpkin forms which forces them out of it, while also being able to speedrun it without said form using iframes. This means that near the end a player can follow you and effectively drag you back to the start with a click of a button. To me to play the game that way kind of kills the mood so we kind of stopped until it gets patched if ever. We're not interested in speedrunning. We want to play a game for what it is, a game.

House of Horrors it is currently impossible to complet.

Players are stealing Mischievous Jack all the time. 

So i start killing Mischievous Jack to stop them and then they start crying.

Epic worst event in BDO history (sorry number 2, top will be always blue acc "event").

So, I did red light, green light. Failed the first time, then waited ten minutes. Second time, got to the shooters at the end, and apparently I have to get to the shai... didn't understand that, as I was on the far side of the game area. Now I am hoping after another ten minutes, I can complete it.

 

Not sure why its so incredibly sensitive, nor why the finish line doesn't mean anything, and lastly, why it has to be ten minutes. If there needs to be a cool down period, why not 3 minutes at most?

 

Update: I failed again. Maybe I can complete this before the event ends.

 

Also, unsure why the transformations are attackable by other players, specifically the pumpkin.

Well I think the activities that are there are fun.

 

The Haunted House is a nice challenge, however it is a little buggy: it would be nice if you were removed back to the beginning immediately upon failure.

 

Red Light, Green Light I thought was practically impossible having higher-ping. However it has one important mechanic to it, once you learn what it is it makes a world of difference to the difficulty (Hint: turn on your sound and listen). The 10 minute wait is fine, however it would be nice if there were more things to do during this downtime. Even just a pumpkin-patch to gather from whilst we're waiting would be nice. I guess this leads to the greatest criticism of the event; there just isn't enough to do here daily. It's really nice to have some event activities that actually take a bit of skill/interaction/thinking to complete them, there just are not enough of them.

 

Oh also, if the beach event could be turned night-time all the time for it, I don't understand why Marni's Spooky Playgroud event wouldn't be? If ever an event called for 'endless night', it would be this one. 

 

So all in all, - what is there is nice. I just hope they continue to build and improve on it for future.

Quests beeing weekly is stupid. We should have something to do whole event...not just 10mins a week.

I appreciate trying new things but these time based "get spotted" gimmicks are awful. 

The Red light Green light wouldn't be so bad if :

 

a) It said avoid the glare of the "Giant Shai" not Avoid the glare of the "MOD OOG XVI blah blahblah" 

b) Wasn't time based. Dont make me wait for 10 min, just have the shai constantly searching and let us do it. 

 

Haunted House: I don't even know, the rewards arent even worth the effort. I tried it once, saw it was another "don't get spotted" after getting de-transformed after the first turn, verified quest rewards and yeeted out. 

 

We respect your game enough to play it, please respect our game time. 

 

Other than that the props looks great, the over all aesthetic of the area is fantastic. 

 

 

I enjoyed this event until the doorway to try to get to the final room. I'm done.
