Vakyoom Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Well here it is, March 30th and the double xp went away at 3am server time.... doesn't seem right... the xp bonus didn't even start until 7am, at least be consistent... Why be wishy-washy about what your times and dates mean? pretty dumb imo.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CokeRedCherry Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) What kind of stupid joke is that again? The former double ep-weekends were different in 2 Points: 1. They were announced a couple a days before... so you don't get pissed when you logg in on Saturday, getting surprised that there's actually a double ep weekend on the go :rak_02: 2. Time... It always ended with the daily reset on Monday, or in other words on the daily reset of the last day mentioned... here should be the 30 of march.. :rak_02: So yeah... what the hallelujah did you "think" about this time, not announcing it and not sticking to the outlined time frame? :rak_02: Nice to get pissed twice but that stupid event... Well done SWTOR-Team... well done... Edited March 30, 2015 by CokeRedCherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lundorff Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Must admit I was also a bit surprised with no double exp today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vakyoom Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 agreed on all accounts... today is the 30th and it's only several hours in, why not just say that you're going to end it on the 29th at midnight to save face? When will they learn?! idk it's not the end of the world but this double xp weekend was pretty dumb... Heroes of the Storm is doing a similar thing and it lasted about a week PLUS they told you before it happened... just get it together, all this last minute stuff..... i'm still sad that the gree event wasn't as long as i would've liked but w/e... just something else to ***** about, right?

clearsighted Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It's a complete joke to claim the 30th, then end at 3 AM, and unlike previous weekends. I agree...I was in for a rude surprise when it went away. Thought I had a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celwinn Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Aren't we still owed another 2x XP weekend for that debacle during an earlier one? Or did we already get a make up one for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LydMekk Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Would it hurt anyone to do the 12xp throughout EASTER and not just the past weekend? A lot of ppl have the easter free and have time to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midianlord Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 What was the occaision for the DXP Weekend? There usually is a reason for these. Hey, I got nothing to ***** about, I got my Marau'Derp through his class story --my last to do being SW since forever-- and up to level 51, soooo....Job done!

MystbladeWA Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 They should just have a legacy item that applies 2xp for all people if they want it. For a reasonably largish price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean? That rested XP was disabled and we didn't get 4x for every kill? Works as intended. The Official Website and advertising for 2x XP says: ENDS MONDAY NOON PACIFIC TIME Guess BioWare lied or can't tell time in the script they added for the event It clearly says "12AM PDT".

No. There was a 2x XP weekend a few months ago that didn't award XP correctly. Musco came out and said this and because of it, we were to get another weekend. Can't remember if they have gave us that make up weekend yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papazmurf Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Bioware really needs to do a better job with it's communication. (Have they updated all parts of the website?) Very 2x xp event people are upset that the event ends at reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arlon_Nabarlly Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) It's a double XP weekend. If you there there was going to be much if any XP on Monday (going by US time as the team is based there) then that's kinda silly on your part IMO. Should they more clearly define the terms? [edited amswer: no because they did list it and list it correctly] However, they didn't have to do it all. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

TheSeventhJedi Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 If you hover over the 2XP bar, there's a countdown timer that tells you how long you have left. Yesterday afternoon we were in the single digits for hours left, so I wasn't surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I used to do that all the time, but what they listed is midnight. I've always thought companies should say 11:59PM to avoid the AM/PM jump confusion, but maybe that's just me. That would also limit the 30th confusion as it would be March 29th 11:59PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musco came out and said this and because of it, we were to get another weekend. Can't remember if they have gave us that make up weekend yet? That was almost a year ago and they made it up a few months later, even though it seems they confirmed it wasn't a bug. People were just so used to having rested XP that already doubles XP per enemy kill and most of KDY's XP comes from all the kills, not the end mission.

Yeah they should done that to alleviate confusion. That said, anyone who familiar with any of Bioware's double XP event times would know they always end at around 12 am midnight and the bar tells you how much time you have left so it shouldn't have been that much of a surprise.
