Not a great expert on FAs, but didn't this one also finish earlier on the Beta Server...? @Silmaril - any official word on this FA's duration on EN Server?Also, this Adventure must be shorter right? I think it's started at the same time of day it usually does, but normally it finishes at about midnight (UK time).
If I am not completely off it is 7 PM CET? But anyway not much time to brew beer for the working folks, however the same folks rarely stayed to the end before, if they had to go to work the next day...The timing of this FA sucks. I'm not a fan of it finishing midweek at all, but worse than that is having it finish at 5pm or 6pm. That means that many people in Europe won't be able to attend to the last couple of hours as they will be working or travelling home from work. For anyone playing from the other side of the Atlantic (we have several) the end of the FA will be slap in the middle of their working day.
That would be 18:00 BST in the UK. A ridiculous time to finish. Another 3 hrs would be useful. Those who work have early evening if they have the time, earlymorning if they can squeeze it in, otherwise the Pit needs to be opened 24 hrs in advance to give the Brits access the previous evening. Not happy.If I am not completely off it is 7 PM CET?

I think for many, it already has....I cannot express words strongly enough to say that unless INNO comes up with a better, more inspiring, rewarding prize structure this event will go down in the games record as " IT IS NOT WORTH PLAYING".
It is very much worth playing regardless of the rewards. It brings the fellowship together in a way nothing else does. We find it great fun.
Yeah, I agree with both at this point.I have to agree with Julian, it is a good event! I think that they ought to be limited to 3 or 4 per year, and I think we should get choices of prizes. Folks should be able to pick between instants, or themed items, like a Spire pack (some CCs, random Spire specific rewards), or an AW pack (rune shards and instants), buildings, that kind of thing.
If that's so, that would be terrible. We went from April to August between the previous ones, which was too long. One month is too short. We need time to recover and restock. I'd seriously have to discuss with my fellowship about giving it a miss so we could save up for the next one. Space them out evenly, perhaps one every 3 months.It looks like there is another FA scheduled for one month from now. That's just too much. No time to recover teleport spells, etc, and less enthusiasm to go again. 3-4 months between them is ideal.
Yep, it's lurking there in the game files.If that's so, that would be terrible. We went from April to August between the previous ones, which was too long. One month is too short.

If Inno really plans running another FA right after the bear event, it just shows again that there is not a single person in that company with a view for more than the next week or 2... Why on earth would anyone run FAs back to back, then not at all for 3 month and then back to back again???
