Kas.3509 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It is probably a move due to lower population (due to no content). Some maps meta's are hardly run and probably if its "daily map" it will be run for the whole day and very populated. It's actually a good idea - farming 1 map every day is boring too. and people who needs achievement's and meta's from less populated map will actually have a chance of getting enough people to do them. We will see how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimgamgoo.5670 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 As a new(ish) player farming these maps for currency for my alts, I've enjoyed having the dailies on each map. It made the usual MMO monotony of farming more fun as it gave me something to do while on the map. I really hate this change and it will probably cut my play time down as I'm much less interested in bothering with the daily-less maps now. It means my progress will slow and I'll get further behind ever seeing LW5. Was the reward for doing the dailies too much? If so, they've given us triple the rewards for one map anyway? It makes no sense to me and has certainly lessened my interest in playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should have been done was introduce a device and timer system for metas on the LW maps so players can jump through them like core meta train works.

Corma.7268 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I do not like this change at all. As a casual player i liked the ability to chose which dailies I want to do. Now I'm forced to do specific content, and don't get the slowly accumulatig rewards from the other maps. Besides, we had 6 maps with dailies, each giving one chest. Now we have one map with 3 chests per daily, that's only half of what we could get before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fomivee.3065 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It hurts my altoholic's heart. It really cripples Mistborn Motes gain (used to buy 3 ascended pieces: ring, amulet, accessory and ofc Skyscale if someone still needs to do that). Instead of 4x5x7=140 mm weekly I can get 4x3x5=60 only. That's over 50% loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's inherently nothing wrong with additional rewards, except they say that the rewards to begin with are lackluster. From a personal standpoint this might encourage me to go back to some of those LW3 and LW4 maps that I never visit, and I said might because dailies on maps have never been a big draw for me, I usually just end up playing the most recent map to death and only doing the regular Dailies(I've only ever done map specific dailies when one of those maps happened to be part of the rotation for the regular dailies and then I never did them all to begin with).

By keeping the dailies and rotating a diff way you get the choice and the benefit of funnelling as well. Win/win Choice is useful when made use of. Given how most players did not chose maps based on dailies and the low rewards they provided, that choice was imo meaningless. Now, players are provided with a different choice: do I go engage in more profitable dailies, potentially on a map I would not have visited otherwise, or not? Different type of choice, more meaningful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get why some people might be annoyed at the change, especially if you now don't get rewarded while playing maps you want to play outside of the daily rotation.

DrFox.8091 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 As an "old" player I dont really need maps currencys anymore. But I usually go on LS3 or LS4 maps that I like for some farm spots. So on the way i used to spend more time on those maps to get quick hearts and dailys. From that point of view this change sounds just like a nerf. Coz lets be clear : I will not go more often on maps that I dont like (or that I dont farm) just to get "dailys". But if I was a newby or someone in need of currencys, I'll find this change truly unfair. Reminds me the time when some JP was doable with mounts. People in need to complete the Jp after this period of autorisation, so mostly newbys, can found the situation unfair and I understand that. Now I understand that people who need currencys for trinkets (leggy or not) can be frustrate coz it's take a little longer and old players didn't had this limitation. So I dont think this change will really bring more players on the "daily map" (maybe some months or years ago but no nowdays) and If they want to improve population of old content I really agree with that : > @"Hannelore.8153" said: > This is why I think the whole system of releasing expansions and maps indefinitely and never opening them up to free players will hurt the game in the long run, it might last for a few more years but once the game passes the ten year mark it'll be unsustainable.

Currencies are not hard to come by and the old dailies were an insignificant part of currency acquisition. Not to mention that the new maps have currency exchanges on top of that. Events and especially meta or group events on the other hand on empty maps, that's what is really painful as new player. Anything which might bring some more play to old maps, even if it's on a rotation, could help here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as long as you can get on that day you can take advantage I didn't ask for this and would have been against it should this have been put to a vote or request. Who was the "we"?

Anything which might bring some more play to old maps, even if it's on a rotation, could help here. These are 2 key points! Most of the players already have enough map currencies and various possibilities to acquire them (home instance nodes, exchanges, mine them on the specific map) and you can't serve everything on a silver plate to new players. Additionally map metas like Draconis Mons are more likely to be successful some of "latecomers" were complaining about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it does change is the likelihood that those harder to complete events/achievements in these older maps will have a greater chance of being met when the daily for that living story map comes around.

The change gives increased opportunity for those unable to complete the harder event chains on the older living world maps. Adding incentives to help players complete otherwise difficult content for them is far more important than any currency farming concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both could have been achieved as per multiple solutions in this thread. This was not the best way to achieve this goal however noble the intent because both are valid priorities for them to work towards. So, yes I sincerely hope for a reversal and a better implementation even though it is sadly unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if it doesn't work out like it's hoped it will, I'd like to further changes will be made in future. Who knows, if it turns out to be the case, perhaps some of the solutions voiced here may be implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coso.9173 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Didn't people always complain about maps getting emptier and emptier with time? At least this gives an option to do tjmhem with more people now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
