First off this entire event is a morality test and the respawnables multiplayer community is failing horribly. How you ask? Well lets expand on the structure of this event right now. Basically three parts: the choice weapon, the skill level, and the returning players.

1. CHOICE WEAPON: rather the only weapon we can use, it is the Bow. And when compared to the average weapon power, this bow is very much underpowered, due to its small clip and the charge feature. Why is this bad? well because as players, the bow CANNOT be relied on to defend ourselves. it cannot consistently be used to combat others. Now this is great if everyone in a lobby is doing the event, but thats not always the case. Why? well READ ON MY FRIENDS.

2. SKILL LEVEL (of the trial/whole event so far): It is absolutely TOO EASY. well im not complaining about the skill level of the event in its purest form. In fact, I love an easy event where there is little stress. But more on that later. This event is too easy for it's own good. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE (except the lazy ones) can complete this event. And the ones that are diligent at it can complete it within an hour. But its so easy that large numbers of people finish too quickly. Which leads to another dilemma: '''what now? what do we do after we finish the event?''' this is the second piece of the test. Now the answer lies in the final piece

3. RETURNING PLAYERS: and by this im talking about players that have finished the event and return, looking for some fun. Because yes this game is fun. Well big problem here is, returning players have NO OBLIGATION to stick with a weak weapon like the Bow since they are done with the event, they can use whatever weapon they want. In fact they dont even need to be done with the event to not use a bow. AND THEREIN LIES THE DAMN PROBLEM.

Now that the groundwork for the problem is down we can futher rant, er i mean discuss this problem. THERE ARE TOO MANY DAMN RETURNING PLAYERS WHO ARE COMING JUST TO SCREW WITH THE DAMN EVENT. el matatan, heres jhny, hurt, and many, many others are literally returning just to kill people with bows. '''LIKE SERIOUSLY. THIS DAMN BOW CAN BARELY COMPETE WITH ITSELF AND YOU TAKE OUT A THUMPER? A MASKELEON SNIPER? ATT? WHY???''' and the three things above become painfully transparent when these players return. the bow's weakness makes it a perfect target for anyone with a better weapon. I was getting killed 7,8, even 9 times in a match by weapons that aren't even considered top tier like stig, smg howling, little friend, HEK-whatever the hell its name is, even the GDAMN HOWITZER, AND WHILE USING RED HERO ARMOR (before u call me a noob, it was from range, and we all know that this bow has literally no range if you want to administer death).

This bow is pitifully weak. and this event is too easy. combined with a free-for-all, dog-eat-dog, and each-man-for-themselves environment that DLE has actively fostered over the past 3+ years, such behaviours of lobby domination of a weak weapon surface.

Now this part pertains to my own experiences, you may find them completely different or painfully identical. Now I am an 18 year old dude who has to juggle church, college, and 2 part time jobs week in week out. And the only time I can realistically devote some time to this event would be saturday. But the event starts on Thursdays (in California at least). so Im about 3 days behind. And '''3 days is enough time for even a lv1 player to complete this event, so goes without saying that veterans and p2wins can easily finish. What im getting at is that this style of event rewards the early finishers (which is absolutely okay) but it ALSO INORDINATELY PUNISHES THOSE THAT TRY TO COMPLETE IT AT A LATER TIME '''(which, by the way, is NOT OKAY). games like this should be trying to foster an equal standing for players to play, even if they cannot perfectly achieve it. But it seems that DLE has totally forgotten that it's player base is not only worldwide, but also encompasses multiple age groups. Not everyone can complete the event early, and not everyone can get on the event at exactly the time the event opens. which is understandable. It isnt statistically possible, but to go about and continue to punish late players is a big problem with these timed events.

Secondly, I dont even know when the player base became so damn cancerous. Literally everyone i see when i enter multiplayer is using a damn OP weapon. liek please you can use it, but at least dont get in my way. Im trying to complete a damn event. '''I could get it if im dying like once or twice from accidents/ mistakes, but 9, 10 times? thats just intentional obstruction of people trying to complete this event.''' ALSO special thank you to player on ios called heres jhnny, ive run into you before. Judging by your event progress you havent even tried to complete this event, since youre literally at the 0th tier, but you still runnin around wit your HEK, flare, or whatnot smashing event doers bless yo soul. morally you( all of them, not just this cunt) should at least feel some obligation to help your fellow respawnable brothers and sisters( dw chafiko i ddnt forget bout u) to complete the event (or at least leave them alone), but noooooooo you just wanna complete the event fast so you can go around, and feel good about smashing bow users with an OP weapon. which in turn forces people to stop using the bow, stop completing the event, and gear up to meet u, and the cycle continues until you have a completely cancerous, '''completely unplayable lobby where no one is using bow or completing event when thats all they really want to do. '''

now this isnt the first time that this is the case, but its just extremely clear in this event because of how its structured. In a way it has exposed a long dormant problem. Please DLE fix this. its making this game extremely unfair and unentertaining.

well rant is over now yall can come back. but seriously DLE fix this. and what are your thoughts? whats the biggest underlying problem with this game? is it the company? or the environment like i pointed out? or is it the player base? Well let me know what you think. We all know that this is a big problem with the game, but whats the real reason behind it?

This summarises exactly what I feel about Respawnables as a whole my friend. Personally, I could not type that much, but well done. This post's complaints are the same I am experiencing, and I'm leaving the game soon. I cannot deal with the rubbish for much longer.
