Since day 1, since the first hour after the game opened, I've been playing with many of my other friends in Hafen. After I finished creating my character and teleported into the main game world, I got my first exp event instantly. Ever since then after exhausting all free-account hours (during my final hour was yesterday, I bought 1 month of game time), I have never gotten another pop-up. I have talked with my friends and they seem to get many a day, some of my friends having 2k+, even 5k+ Exp on their characters. I am sitting at 456 exp right now, and will probably be all gone by tomorrow because of all the curiosities I collect daily.
There is no way I have not done enough to earn another exp event. I've built tons of buildings, structures, craftables, picked and gathered everything I've come across, was the first in my group to find surface ore, killed badgers/rabbits/chickens/foxes, walked over every kind of terrain (even that huge mountain in the northwest), rode a horse, sheer'd sheep, swam across many rivers...
Is there some magic trick I'm missing? This has got to be a bug, I've done so much more in the game than even my younger brother, and he's got 4,814 exp.

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event
I've tried all three in the past 2 hours, still nothing. Any guaranteed craftables that are supposed to trigger it?

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event
The xp disposition is hard to balance since it is, indeed, random/strange and weird for us as well. Will improve with time, hopefully.

Not that many hours into the game, but I still only had 1 event and I am currently sitting at ~600
Seems pretty unbalanced if you ask me Q_Q

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event
The Exp system seems totally broken to me. I only had 5 experiences and all together like in the same 5 secs. After that, no more experiences at all. This should get a fix since you can get get stuck in the progress without a way out.
A feedback from the devs about this would be really appreciated.

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event
I've given the feedback I have. It will be hard to get it right, we are adding more experiences. Consider the curios you're studying. At some point the very idea is that you should get stuck without really knowing how to advance. If experience never limits you then it is pointless.

I thought it was just to limit alts & bots who log in only to do curiosities? I don't see the point in limiting the LP gain of active players.jorb wrote:If experience never limits you then it is pointless.

Re: More than 48 hours of game time, only 1 EXP event
Ok, I'm not asking for more experiences or unlimited progress here. Given my personal experience on this (5 expes in 5 secs and nothing more) I wonder if the system may be broken?
I have the feeling, asking around, that someone in the game is getting plenty of them and someone just nothing at ALL. So it may be worth look into it?
