Why timegate?

What does it matter whether someone does Flying High 75 times in a row, or over the span of the entire event? End result is the same. This goes for most other content of this nature.

Yes yes, then someone might not use Lobi to speed up the process, oh the horror :rolleyes:. Or they might still :eek:. You could even make it an even 100 runs :D.

Annoyed customers vs happy customers, should be a no brainer really.

    I think you answered your own question there.

    To force people to spend money on Lobi in order to get there faster.

    No. Your fun makes everyone else's fun wrong by default.

    the problem is it's a gamble on how many lobi you get so you sometimes have to buy multiple packs to get the lobi you need
    NO TO ARC

    Yes and this is the problem, also the only way to get Lobi is lockboxes so any which way you look at it, it's going to involve opening a lot of lockboxes and a big expenditure.

    Same reason they time gated STF.

    To have you forced into logging in every day no matter how many resources you got.

    As a f2p'er they can whip me all they want but I find it surprising LTS and paying people in general have to grind the exact same amount I do.

    Hey guys, welcome to the world of the MMO. Please get in the line to the left to grind or please get in the line to the right to whine and complain.
