Mirage - Hallowed Eve - Dam Of Doom - 3 Stage Event - 12/10/2023

Post by Decker »

Here we go again, 3 stages, not quite sure what to make of the weapon just yet, no zoom and fires like an energy weapon...

EDIT: First upgrade required to play mission 4, this doesn't look good!

Standard for a 3 stage event, will have to fully upgrade the weapon to get to round 2.
Would be good if I could get in and play, gets to 68% and freezes.

I'd hoped they would have fixed the loading problem before releasing another event when you can't even get into the game, unfortunately common sense doesn't seem to exist in GameLofts world.

And a second upgrade required to start chapter 2, WTH.

Stage 1 and a level 2 => 3 upgrade needs 9 cores they've obviously lost the plot completely!!!

EDIT: Another upgrade at mission 4 chapter 2, why not just make us upgrade 100% in chapter 1...

Interesting that the weapon has no scope so upgrading the scope is fruitless. With no scope, the weapon can't be zoomed so thermal is not active. There is no magazine so upgrading that trait has no effect. Stability is the only aspect that may have an effect but I haven't noticed it yet.

Not sure how players on a phone can cope with the dark enviornment and very small goon enemies. Trying to center the reticle until it turns red is barbaric. Stage 2 and 3 weapons better have much more to offer.

This one is a simple 'POINT and SWEEP' weapon, you got to hit something, right??

Well, you do need to upgrade fully to finish chapter 10 :roll:

Surprisingly the weapon once won upgrades to the Stage 2 weapon AND you get straight onto the next stage...

Tried the MK2 with no upgrades and it did make a dent in my base, not too much but showed a little promise.

How very odd. My game is still on Stage 1 and Stage 2 is locked for another day. At least you get a head start on the next Stage.

All of the upgrades and requirements for Stage 1 were completed a couple of days ago.The weapon is in the Inventory and marked as "owned". EUR server here so we should be getting the same results.

Reverted back to Stage 1 again, but I still have and have equipped the gun, and upgrades seem to be staying.

Not often something happens that helps the player :D

Update, only 1 upgrade to go, stay tuned for more, how dishonest with players can GameLoft get!

It is amazing that the upgrades on your weapon can be done with standard parts instead of the special Exotic game parts (Collector's). It would be nice for you if it works.

There are too many oddities for this to be standard GL practice.

This is a GameLoft error and they need to own it, no oops moments.
