Anyone else depressed with Ark falls in game after watching the show?

[Sticx]

Just watched the show on DVR today, and I'm not going to give away any spoilers, but is anyone else a bit depressed with how arkfalls play out in game compared to what was depicted in the show? I know I was.

It seems like Trion took something that could have been really epic & awesome, and instead turned it into a loot pinata. Instead of how they are now, they could have been made into little mini-dungeons, or a scavenger hunt through a hulking wreck. Anything other than what they are now.

A lot of the Arkfalls don't even seem to really make sense in the game. What do the giant hellbugs & what not have to do with Arkfalls? Am I tearing open the corpse of the hellbug queen after the arkfall, and pulling out a Terasphere?

Just really seems like trion dropped the ball with this one.

Hellbugs are a bit of a mystery, but what is known is that they crave ark tech for some unknown reason. That is from my understanding of the lore, but to answer your questions... Yep. This is the first real disappointment with the game that I have had so far, but I can live with it.

A scavenger hunt through a mini dungeon with 100 people in it? Trying to visualize the cluster**** that would be and coming up short.

Depressed? No. Just hopeful for the future and the awesome possibilities it might bring.

I would like to see Arkfalls that look more like lumps of actual ships, maybe even with climbable bits and the like. Not full on dungeons, per say, just enough to jump up on and poke around in. That would be cool.

Having said that, I would love it if we had some collossal events where massive chunks come down and pulverise much bigger areas. I don't imagine they would work as day-to-day Arkfalls, but as special events or the like, it could be awesome (kind of like the Hemadion event in City of Heroes.... and apologies if I have spelled that wrong.)

I would be awesome if arkfalls lead to dungeons that you could do either by yourself or with a group.

Nah they could have instanced the "mini-dungeons" but yes programing and logistically on Trion's end this would be incredibly difficult. Understanding why it is not what it is does not make me wish it is what it could have been... Wow... Even typing that sentence made my brain hurt a little.

They eat the crystals that form around the ark tech.

tells you pretty much everything about most races, mystery solved! :P

[Myst]

I was and I hope it becomes a type of co-op instance or something later on!

Ok, thank you I missed that or just forgot about it <evil glare at ****>.

I think that what we are seeing in game are small arkfalls, not the really big kind that was displayed at beginning of show. I may be wrong, but I bet we eventually get to see some big ones.
