[2023] Office Hours: Event System - Thursday, October 12, 2023 at 4PM PT

Office Hours is an opportunity to join in on player discussions about topics Intrepid Studios is actively collecting feedback on. Join @Roshen and @Vaknar over in the Ashes of Creation Discord for a voice chat during our next Community Office Hours on Thursday, October 12, 2023 at 4PM PT (Convert to your local time). This discussion should last about one hour.

This is not a Q&A session. For this session, we will be using Discord Stage. Every 10 minutes, we’ll be bringing up small groups of players to participate in one of the discussion prompts on this topic.

DISCUSSION TOPIC

The main topic of discussion for this Office Hours will be the Event System. This is based on what we shared during the September 2023 Development Update Livestream.

In this session, we’ll break each of the 10 minute segments up to focus on one of these conversations:

[list]
[*] General Event System Discussion - How do you feel about the Event System so far? Are there things you’re excited or concerned about regarding what was shown with the Event System?
[*] Events and PvP - In Ashes of Creation there are both PvP Events, and PvP that can happen during PvE Events. What makes PvP fun for you in situations like these, and what concerns do you have?
[*] Events in Other Games - What do you like most and least about systems like our World Events in other games?
[*] Creative Use of Events - Since Events can have wide reaching negative effects, such as being a part of a Node atrophy Event, what thoughts and concerns do you have with players participating in Events in unique and creative ways?
[/list]
If you’d like to contribute to this discussion, we recommend you watch the Alpha Two Event Update video before this Community Office Hours session. In addition, we share more information about Event types in the article here.

Thanks again! We look forward to chatting with you all soon!
