A growing coalition of players is expressing frustration over mission delays and unrewarded challenges, sparking confusion over the inconsistent reset times for daily tasks. Many gamers are left feeling demoralized despite fulfilling challenge criteria.

The Inevitable Complaints

Several reports indicate that players are completing missions but not receiving the expected loot. One frustrated player stated, "Why am I not getting the loot box? I need 100 more points!" Another added, "I didnโ€™t get squat from the event since the only days I got to play were Friday and Sunday, and none of that even tracked."

Key Issues Identified

  1. Disparate Mission Reset Times: Players are baffled by daily missions resetting at varied times depending on account status. As one player remarked, "No, dailies reset at a different time for different accounts. Mine reset 2 hours after the event."

  2. Server Issues Persist: Ongoing server problems are stopping many from completing their missions. "The servers are doing crap; it was nearly impossible to play a game to completion," lamented a player. Another mentioned, "Spoke to support; bugs in the season 21 update caused me to not get my rewards."

  3. Reward Distribution Failures: Despite gamers completing daily tasks, many have not received their due rewards. "Still canโ€™t redeem any of my rewards; itโ€™s been on pause for over four days now," shared another player. Additionally, a user raised a vital concern about update timings in Europe, noting, "Normally in Europe (CET), updates are always on Thursday at 19:00."

Community Outcry

The forums are buzzing with activity, particularly requests for compensation due to ongoing server issues. As expressed by several players, "They should give everyone the faction rewards for both sides due to the server issues." One user echoed a feeling of hopelessness with, "Yโ€™all be happy with where youโ€™re at. I did every conquest daily and still havenโ€™t been rewarded."

"Of course, they do this stuff the one time Iโ€™m away! This will be the first event I've missed," encapsulating the mounting frustration among players.

Whatโ€™s on the Horizon?

With a new batch of missions set to launch soon, gamers anticipate clearer guidelines regarding reward distribution. Although there's cautious hope, anxiety surrounds whether developers will deliver on promised rewards.
