For example, they had 2 double XP events within last 30 days. We got last XP event like 50? days ago.

    Well, right now Xbox is sort of the "new baby" and so is getting all the attention. More generally, they are also playing catchup, as the PC version has had like a 2 year head start over them.

    It's because we're celebrating Rise of Tiamat. PC will definitely get more events in the future.

    Who are they catching? they got separate servers. Sometimes i feel like we are the preview shard for them. We must deal with all the bugs and so on while they get fhe fixed version + more events.

    Does anybody know if they get all these annoying lags in VT, Tuern etc?

    Judging by posts on Reddit, NWXBox has some pretty serious performance issues, yeah.

    I don't remember PC ever having the bug where you couldn't deposit gold in the shared bank at all. Just as an example even if it's not earth-shattering.

    XBox also seems to only get an actual patch once a month, so as much as we end up moaning about how long it takes to get fixes, they're worse off.

    I feel the same. PC players endured 2 years of vote kicking all around the place. And then xbox comes, a few of their players complains and bam, we got a fix for that. I don't even... :mad:

    To be fair, that is not completely accurate.

    The PC didn't even have vote kicking at launch. Originally, only the group lead had the power to kick. It was abused, players complained, and the devs responded by implementing the voting system. We asked for it, and we got it. I don't see any special treatment for the xboxers.

    Honestly, the only thing I want to see is the difficulty addressed. I'd happily forego any more events if the devs would devote their efforts to correcting the horrible misstep of difficulty that was mod 6. No more distractions, please -- address the difficulty.

    It does leave me wondering... has Crypfic bitten off more than it can chew, by launching a second platform for NW?

    ...haven't they with Mod 6, too?

    And re. preferential treatment: Think of all the market potential, and you get the image. So many Starter Packs, Holding Bags, purple mounts,...

    Well, to be fair the fix is going live for PC players first, then it will make it's way onto the Xbox.

    I think the reason is Xbox usually does not equip with a physical keyboard so that you can enter the amount.

    I suspect that it's because they're catching up to PC. We already have every single one of those events.

    I imagine that the goal is to eventually get the two platforms synced for content, or at least on a similar path, so that they can refocus on just one 'next project' rather than 'mod7 for PC, get mod1 ready for xbox' etc etc. If that became 'get mod8 ready for PC, then start XB testing on mod 8' it'd allow for a smoother experience all around.

    I'm pretty happy with the events that have been happening. I'm still busy on mod6 content, too, so I don't feel like I'm missing out.
