Adding onto everyone’s suggestions for the event rewards, I’d say possibly add melkbux in there too. Not sure how useful he’ll be after the crafting update, but who knows. Maybe Melk will have some CRACKED weapons with perfect distributions. Or reds.
Didnt fix the Hab Dreyko invisible wall : (
I looked into this, we have a fix for it. I’ll try to get it pushed to a sooner hotfix.

Power supply interruption was fun once, I normally never play it or ventilation purge.
Ogryn don’t even have access to a torch
Just finish the crafting update for the love of the Emperor

No spoilers, but the new modifier is available to try via the Solo Play mod, and I’m a big fan. I personally really dig the lights out missions, but this one is spiced up. And on top of that gameplay spice is some new vox chatter and progression to the narrative. Good job, sharks! And in a “hotfix.”

From the dawn of the blackout modifiers, they have caused me headaches and rendered me unable to play. Now there’s an entire event centered around lack of lighting. File this feedback under “negative.”

Frame, title, victory pose? Anything is fine. But not one thing. No one needs emotes as a reward.
The lobby feature in this game is useless and pointless.
In strategium, no one raises their hand to greet each other, and no one feels the need to do so.
Instead, please allow these motions to be used during missions.
Besides jump spamming and shoot everyones and stim-pack jerk off
in elevators and valkyries, We also want to express more emotions.

Aquilas being earnable would actually make me do the same thing. If we’re getting fake money I want to be given it for playing the game.
If i think about it, the Skulls have had nothing this year.
I had high expectations, but was disappointed.
Oh Hel yes I am excited because this means fighting a Dreg Boss or maybe a Plaguebearer? I shall see whats lurking in the dark heralding admonition for Nurgle!
could you equip the player himself with a flashlight instead of a flashlight that is equipped on the gun?
as soon as I switch to a melee weapon I can’t see anything and I can’t play properly with the ogryn.
this is probably why many players dislike the lights out modifier

Weapon camo packs would be nice, easy to implement (if the drip mod is anything to go by) while being a decent reward. Could’ve had black weapon paint for this event for example.

Can you mark this as spoilers big dog
So… plasteel is the main limiter for most people. Completing 12 missions nets you 7,000 bonus plaststeel. A damnation run is usually 800+ plasteel on it’s own (9,600 for 12 runs) … so the reward isn’t even a doubling of plasteel. It’s nice, but not a very strong enticement at all IMHO. Maybe if these 12 missiosn rewarded like 20,000 plasteel it would be really exciting.
I’d also like to see these events reward Melk coins. Why is that missing from the list? Give people 10,000 melk coins as a bonus.
And the final reward for these events should REALLY be premium cosmetic currency (aquillas). 1,000 or so would be enough to pick up a smaller cosmetic or two for example. More importantly, people sitting on a small pile of aquillas are going to be that much more enticed to maybe spend a little more actual money on just a few more aquillas to actully buy something. It’s a lot easier to ignore the store entirely if you have nothing in the bank. Giving people that don’t normally spend money on MTX some free cash gets them thinking about making a purchase, and some of those will translate into sales.

sucks to have this issue but the majority doesn’t and it adds a ton of atmosphere to the maps.
not totally related, but i f-ed up both shoulders with incline benchpress.
yep should have known after the first time, but stubborn me wanted to “toughen it through”.
so now there’s stuff in the gym thats not for me anymore.
still i dont see it as “negative” even if there was a bench press contest.
not every thing can be for everyone.

Rewards have always been terrible for events. really terrible.
Plasteel is fine as a reward but it should be 10x (at the very least) the given amounts we’ve been offered. Currently you get the same as 1-1.5 auric matches. Absolutely pitiful and actually insulting. It makes the events seem like complete nothing burgers.
Exclusive weapons skins or character skins are always the best rewards though, providing they can never be gained elsewhere ever.
You want player retention? Play to major exclusivity. Dangle some pretty cosmetic carrots that we must play to achieve. Allow us to drape ourselves in cool gear that tells other players that we completed a certain challenge.
If those cosmetics can only be gained during a timed event… Then bam, we’ll all be playing!

I know a lot of folks don’t like the limited time aspect of event cosmetics, but they were thoroughly enjoyed in VT2. They had a different Halloween (Geheimnisnacht) frame (or two) every year, an new Skulls event one, several anniversary ones, and some years a new Christmas one. Eventually, they opened it up and passed a bunch of the old ones around. It was all a lot of good fun.
At the very least frames, titles, and trinkets as parts of limited events would be no problem.
As far as actual wearables, I know DRG has an excellent practice of letting players unlock past years’ cosmetics if they do a bit extra in the current year. Anniversaries excluded; you have to be there for those.
Just my two cents.
