Make a new zone titled MSR

[DrRocket]

Only a suggestion...

 

I often when trying to run a TINPEX or LGTF, the MSRs since they are done so often in Everlasting are consistently being impacted by the MSR, I try telling folks when doing Battle Maiden to exit quickly, but there are those who get killed because you just can't exit since you must choose between RWZ 1 or 2, which at times is enough to get folks killed.

 

So it occurs to me, why not draw a new wall that separates RWZ from the actual crashed ship and name the new zone MSR, so when folks do MSR they enter the MSR zone and do their business without zone overfill issues; which solves a lot of issues in a rather simple manner.

 

I heard instancing can help, but does no good when the organizers do it at RWZ and then instance it...

Sadly yeah that would be up to the organizers as there is already a solution in place, I know on Excelsior I moved the daily one we run to start inside an SG base and the monthly Kheldian one starts in Pocket D, since instanced gives more balanced rewards too since pullers won't go out of range for merits and there is less lag. Might be worth asking the people who run them if they can do it instanced?

Yet the new zone pre-empts the need for instancing at all, keeping it simple. Perhaps a portal inside the Vanguard base that exclusively send you to the new zone would make sense as well.

What if you want to run two at a time? (It does happen) You can with instanced which is already a thing in game and has been worked on by the devs a bit since live, but you can't with the zone which would have to be created and added to the game

As rare as trying to so 2 MSRs at a time, since I doubt the server population could possibly support it, the problem is at the MSR zone and it would not impact LGTF and TINPEX at the RWZ, which is the purpose of the request. With regard to the new zones, yes there is a bit of work involved, nothing is free. Yet what goes into the two maps is already made, the suggestions is requesting in effect two create two small zones out of the current RWZ, that is why I use the suggestion of making a new dividing wall.

 

New work due to the suggestion, a gate between RWZ and MSR, base portals to MSR, portal to MSR from vanguard base. There is a path in Vanguard that connects you to an underground portal which could be used for this purpose, but there is also a path that leads to alternate exit are in to RWZ which could be set to deliver the player inside the MSR area, in fact why not have it lead to the fort MSR usually gathers at?

I seriously doubt the devs will prioritize this one any time soon . . . because there is already an instanced MSR.

 

Good luck though.

 

EDIT: Seeing as how folks have been asking for an instanced Hami, that might actually be their next priority along these types of requests.

I play on Everlasting and I've noticed that the MSR's have primarily switched to the instanced version, which doesn't impact folks playing in RWZ at all.

Whenever I see the MSR listed on Everlasting these days, it's instanced - people go to the zone (or a shared zone) to get invited in, for this and other reasons. So they should have zero impact as it is. (Or, rather, it's already essentially IN an "MSR" zone.)

How come every time I do a tinpex there, the zone is a mess between random RWZ 1 and RWZ 2 choices, if so called instanced, that happens all to rarely

There's multiple MSRs in a day on Everlasting - of them, some are instanced, others are not. Usually the one after the earlier Hami in the day isn't instanced, for whatever reason.

[TygerDarkstorm]

Aren't all the MSRs run on Everlasting done on a set schedule, at least for weekdays? You should be able to plan TinPex runs around the known MSR times. I don't see a reason that this change needs to be made. Or consider having a chat with whomever runs the non-instanced version to swap to running the instanced version.
