News: The Future of Mayhem: Vendor Changes

Sub-Zero said:
As a swedish person, I can say that tomorrow for most companies, its last day of the "work week". On friday it's the national day of Sweden (holiday) so it would be extremely unusual if anyone at MA were working that day.
So yeah, we still have tomorrow for the announcement, or up to sunday if someone is working on the weekend.
I'm guessing the reaction from folks is probably because they were expecting to hear it on monday or tuesday (where most VU info comes).

Didn't you just have a holiday last week?
 
Maybe they are launching a bunch of new items and the new BALANCE MANAGER is testing it all out
 
all are assuming that some MA officer REMEMBERS to refill the mayhem trasder :)

Why do you still have item in vendor listed which are gone ?
This give people false hope ... I met a guy today he was saving up tokens to redeem for lp40 when it gets refilled . @Ludvig|MindArk please check the issue if items depleted stocks don't get removed people are assuming they will get restocked in future and saving up. Not everyone reads every patch note / news right.

This is actually a very good point.

Also should sell 2,000-4,000 mayhem tokens for 1 rare. People could exchange their rares for a very generous exchange rate and stop complaining about looting them

Additional information and replies to questions from the thread:


Not all of the items, but there will always be items in stock.

What happened to this? Or you counting BP's for exceptional items as exceptional items?
 
Thanks that i get exactly nothing all the time a refill happens out of the blue while im cycling 100k+ each mayhem, this is such a nice move from MindArk to shit always on peoples head. I really don't understand how you guys cannot handle this in an efficient fair way, put a buy limit for each avatar or increase supply do something at least. What's the point in mayhem right now with how it is please tell me, really im curious. Token stack gets bigger and bigger only to get pills or what? F..k this shit

The "exceptional, limited versions" were stocked I think once iirc, and never since. This was your new idea and you haven't done it. There should be unlimited numbers of these L items so people can just get one whenever they accumulate enough tokens, not have to hope they can get online when there is a restock.
 
All weapons have unique and impressive names already , (e.g., Adjusted, Improved, Modified, Augmented, Perfected). Weapons can be upgraded using rare tokens, adding depth and long-term progression to the gameplay.
No need to figure out something new and magical, so ppl will lose their progress.

In addition, make exceptional (L) weapons available in exchange for rare tokens, as an option for players who prefer using (L) weapons. Currently, this is something that exists mostly as rumors related to top-ups 😁
Clicked 5 times for one success ( kind of hard result for rare bp )

I have not received any rewards from the last two Mayhem events. I have never been particularly interested in Land Areas, although they should always remain an optional path. However, the game’s current direction appears to strongly favor them. As for the Treasure Island saga, I would rather leave it aside.


Years ago, Mayhem events had a clear purpose and meaning, but that focus has since disappeared. Box rewards are now primarily aimed at miners, even though many of the recipients are hunters. These are two fundamentally different professions, especially considering that mining as a viable activity has significantly declined.
Mining mayhem , sounds really good - with these rewards 😉

Now I lost my Ghost foot guards BP which where nice orange color ( boosted) in local language .
Waited many years to click them correct time 😔

Amen 🙏
 
Two solutions:

1. Make a new event format which replaces Mayhem, where people can grind for UL rewards and increase participation
in the economy again.
2. Make a new Mayhem token 2.0, and a new Rare Mayhem token 2.0 - And allow people to grind these and pull UL rewards with these.

This is pretty much what everyone hears about Mayhem nowadays. If there is no incentive, there's no point in hunting in Mayhem.
Now that a new format is here, adapt the vendor as well.

STOP refills! Remove the availabiity indication and just let people buy whatever exceptional or BPs they want. Let the UL being bought slowly with the remainder of the tokens, but make the exceptionals and BPs dropping. Adjust the prices if you consider they are too cheap, but not having them in there at all is just absurd. Or at least remove them if plan is to never add them again. But please don't let people hunt wondering what's going to happen with the vendor, it's the worst thing...
I even begin to hear people around saying they are slowing down hunting or stopping just because their current exceptional is closing to 0 tt and they have tokens for a new one but no product on the shelf...
Find a way to address this aready, it's almost a year since the original announcement...

This is not a good idea. It will continue damaging the economy because of what happened with Resource Mayhem. While people are hunting "expensive" tokens now in Mayhem, there are still very likely plenty of people with significant amounts of cheap Mayhem tokens from Resource Mayhem, and it will keep inflating the UL market.

There needs to be UL, otherwise there wont be enough incentives for players to keep playing, or for new players to stick around.
But it needs to be done correctly.

They gotta do something for sure. I was pretty amazed they didn't just do a new token and do it properly here on out for some ULs that'd take years to reach, this was their chance to do that. But with all the ULs in game the slow trickle from special events with unique ULs and super rare drops on aris (if alts weren't wreaking havoc on that place) would be ok too but then keeping same token they'd have to do what eve said n adjust prices but always keep a stock of bps. Could even set prices stupid high at first let every1 pull to burn them then lower it without telling anyone ahead of time whatever strategy to burn some tokens n maintain values they can come up with. But empty vendor is dumb we can all agree on that especially if bots camp the vendor with accounts holding the hoards of tokens that were tradable for a time.

Given what they did with mayhem (e.g. rug pull) I would not buy into any long term plans (that involve MA) again any time soon.

"Here, this is something you can progressively work towards for years",
->
"oh, you were shit out of luck with rare tokens through all this but you have amassed the required regular tokens through normal grinding (not resource mayhem).. too bad we are getting rid of this"
->
*into your proposed* "Here, this is something new you can progressively work towards for years"

I think this is not something that is likely to ever go down well, as long as there are people here to tell the story about what happened (e.g. forever, probably)
 
- those LA in vendor needs to be adjusted, what i see there is absurd amount of whatever time it supposed to be to complete the task...insane, u need years
- those LA needs to be unique in their way like being the mayhem LA's when mayhem is happening, u can chose whatever maturity and condition (shared/nonshared) u like to be but beside the regular mobs on them during events those LA's must be Mayhem LA's, this way they have a price
- those kind of LA's needs to be splitted from 1-10 so that who has tier 10 to be able to spawn max maturity and who has tier 5 to spawn max maturity mayhem mobs 05
- those mayhem LA's needs to have at least televators from 1-6 and teleporters from 07-10, nubs->mid needs help to get there

just saying

Everyone should have access to the exceptionals, with maybe, a limit per player.
