I agree losing event progress just shouldn't be a thing and not knowing how far the second player is is just annoying. Imagine you login on the last 5 Minutes before the event ends, have no idea how far ahead you are, duell one of the bandits and unable to bribe for one of the reasons above. Losing everything. I would delete on the spot.
No, notundead, you misunderstood me! It's about the free duel. I always bribe there, otherwise the clock doesn't go up at 5, but at 10! And I only bribe at the beginning until I have the complete set! Only with the 900 do I always bribe after that!

You don't have to bribe with the pretzel because the clock doesn't reset like in the Easter event!

And that's often the case for me too! I buy 120 nuggets and see them! But I can't use them; they're only credited correctly once the page has been updated! I always thought it was because I was from Switzerland and not Germany! The problem applies to entire The West worlds when buying nuggets!

If any of this has happened on the beta, please drop us a ticket so we can look into it in more detail :)
Since beta server works in the same way as regular ones, you can try and see. After you purchase nuggets, your account doenst recognize them. You have to refresh page, or reset price of skills/atributes with 18 nuggets in order to have them usable. And as Uchiha said, that window problem exists everywhere. I am sure support for many players that went thru this s..t didnt help either. There is something more horrible that happened: On one server my friend lost once in 2022, because during the easter it was well known having too much server error, we were getting destiny star which makes you inactive for 5 minutes, and it was simply random, not with too much clicking duels. I got one, he got one, 3rd got one, and we all had to bribe probably, because after star was gone, we were on 0 - but we couldnt. So we all lost and somebody else won, because our score was reseted lmao. After contacting support, it was said, that winner won because of the longers winning score. 1st one had almost 1800 score, me and other players above 1000. The Winner had something above 400, then he got banned for multies. We quit there because support was blind and lazy - still is. Most of players eventually did.

This is one of the biggest reason why one of the strongest leaders quit, and smaller players with them.

They should implement some kind of log system that tracks your winning streak. For example, if I had 1800 points and, for some stupid reason,like the 5-minute break star or some random situation beyond my control,I lost my streak, support could check the logs, see that I was in first place, and take appropriate action. Whether it’s compensation or restoring the original streak I had before the issue, something should be done in situations where it clearly wasn’t the player’s fault.
I don’t know if something like this is even possible, but honestly, even if it were, I doubt it would ever be implemented,judging by the pace this game moves at and the fact that the devs seem to be on vacation 24/7.

It's just a bad concept that should, if the number one concern was game quality and not profits, be scrapped.

I'd wager over 95% of people that lose their streak to be a mishap as oposed to actually wanting to drop it.

Just a predatory system that preys on FOMO for not completing the streak set.

I've lost my streak before, mid 30s, so it wasn't too terrible because I wasn't going for the event win.

I don't agree with the option to buy nuggets while the bribe screen is option. Always check if you have event currency or nuggets before initiating the duel. That is a user action.

I do agree that clicking anywhere shouldn't dismiss the prompt. Nobody controls when that pesky cat pounces on your computer mouse :)
Our browser based software has a lock on the screen where the only active selection is the current prompt, should be easy to implement because InnoGames's use nuggets window stays open like that.

You can disable animated duel view and immediately get the result which can help avoid misclicks. Although it should still lock if you lose

With the somewhat recent newest achievements for the many faucets of the game, that upped the ante for achievement hunters like in adventures (10000 played), fortfights (3750 played), duels (10000 initiated), sleeping (3 years), union pacific (5000 tasks), finding items (50000), amongst others, there are some that are lacking.

Here are some suggestions to bring Craft more in line with the other areas of the game

  • Craft

1) ''Craft 1000 products'' is the last achievement of this kind, a measly number. Suggestion to add the following:

- Craft 5000 products;
- Craft 10000 products;
- Craft 25000 products;
- Craft 50000 products.

2) ''Learn 17 recipes'' is the last achievement of this kinds, there are now 50.

- Learn 25 recipes;
- Learn 35 recipes;
- Learn 40 recipes;
- Learn 45 recipes.

3) ''Score 700 profession points'', the current max is 850, and there are a 500 and 600 points achivement.

- Score 800 profession point.

Could also just add more tiers of the lesser ones (passive while working towards others) like the ''extraordinary crafts'' ; ''grey difficulty'' ; ''green difficulty'' etc.

I'm looking forward to the second week :P Then there will be more arguments, complaints, nobsusers, etc. Then the new national holiday/independence set will be up for evaluation :P It's always exciting to see what happens in the forum then :P

Since I started playing The West 100 years ago, there has never been a special sale on New Worlds! Because the world is too new. The new worlds won't be allowed to participate in the event until July 4, 2024!

As an event prize, we've had weapons so far, last time a horse and saddle set, wouldn't it be great to have a set of clothes too? I come with this proposal and I'm waiting for you to give me your opinion, maybe the admins will be notified and we'll also receive a unique set of clothes. I really think it would be great!

I was too proposing last year to have Easter Mount, Independence Clothes and Octoberfest Weapons. So I am curious if they will follow, or whole year will be just about horses. Who knows, we will know it in about 2 weeks I guess.
