I always forget what this was, are the rewards something worth bothering to participate?
Comment has been collapsed.
2 years ago lots of game codes.
Last year it wasn't that great. A few got free sneakers and only few game codes.
but still...free stuff...
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh, if it was back during 2022 that explains why I didn't take part in it, I was stuck using a shitty old netbook for most of that year.
Guess I'll try it this time then.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll add the rewards soon. They made this time into Card item, that you acquire them to unlock Rewards.
One of them being a Steam Game ABRISS https://s.team/a/1671480/

Some of quests require loot detector, which is paid.
Comment has been collapsed.
Let's hope it's not mandatory just to get something.
Comment has been collapsed.
It seems like it is, because that's mandatory to complete those specific quests, and they do not have anything else. Other quests may benefit you more if you also have the booster, which is also a paid thing. So, you basically have a few of the non-paid quests, and to gather recruits + allies going for you, and pray that you're in the top 1000. That's it so far.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh, didn't know that you needed to be in the top 1000 to get something. I guess it's a good thing that I got distracted and forgot to do this whole thing, no effort wasted.
Comment has been collapsed.
Is it even possible to get in the top 1000 without doing any of the paid stuff?
Comment has been collapsed.
It was possible last year, but thats always dependend on how many people will participate and how many will get the loot detector.
So no one can really say.
Last year there were some short time quests too. So people could easy miss out on some xp.
Haven't seen one of them this year yet.
But I don't remember them clearly. Could just have been loot detector quests without xp.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, I only done those free ones, ended at #348 when the top 1000 was counted.
Now at #572.

thank you for the (temporary) topic :)
< inb4 wigglenose's negativity >
Comment has been collapsed.
Well people are busy sometimes π
So just making as temporary, also congrats on lvl 4.
Seems like people who solved all solvable things are at that lvl.
Comment has been collapsed.
yes, this year I spent the 2 bucks on the loot detector.
Its not much and I somewhat regrettet it last year not getting it, but didn't wanted to get it later either because I already missed out on the bonus xp.
Probably will regret spending the 2 bucks this year :D
But 5 bucks for a card pack....hell no!
Comment has been collapsed.
Seems like this year sounds like not going well π±
Comment has been collapsed.
lvl5 reward says something of a 5β¬paysafe card code as a reward.
I'm somewhat sceptical, but I am in germany and will try it.
Last year the sneakers were labelled as "germany only" too, but people in other countries received them despite that.
/edit:
you wrote here that the loot detector costs 2.49β¬
I only paid 1.99β¬ for it, maybe it is different in different countries. (germany here)
Comment has been collapsed.
Ahh thx, I was checking copying @sensualshakti info π
Let me update that.
Comment has been collapsed.
I joined the hype while having no idea what the hell is this so I am directly going to the questions
I see a loot detector - is it worth it?
I see a collector booster - is it worth it?
Comment has been collapsed.
first maybe...you got more stuff last year with it, but its no guarantee thats the same this year and especially if its gonna be stuff you like.
2nd thing: probably not

Anyone else having trouble to login? Or is it just me?

Nasty little bug at https://www.gamescom.global/en/program/areas/social-area/signing-area

Probably future quest content because even with loot detector nothing happens when seeing or clicking.

Alright, so I all have left is:
- be in top 1000 on Aug 11th (we'll see)
- two quests requiring loot detector (no, thanks)
- recruit 25 people (impossible)
- and collect 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 34 cards
My question is: how do I "collect cards", is it only through buying booster packs? Am I done here?
Comment has been collapsed.
Use gamescom discord for 25 recruits.
Cards are rewards from quests and lvl up, will be more quests so more cards.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't get it. Use discord (ugh) and do what exactly? Sorry for lame questions.
[edit] I clicked on everyone's link in the "friend" thread and I now have five allies, woohoo. Still no 25 recruits, though, maybe I'll just wait.
Comment has been collapsed.
Copy invite link from epix profile and paste in gamescom discord invite link section.
When others click your link to gain allies, you will receive recruits (in other words: you click someone's link and he clicks yours, you both get recruits and allies this way).
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, so I guess it's the same as the 'friends' thread linked in the first post? I just need to wait for 25 people to click on mine?
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think it works correct, I have 11 allies but only 4 recruits.
Comment has been collapsed.
Because not everyone whose link you clicked on will click on yours. Don't worry, in a few hours you will collect 25, or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow you will add the link again.
Comment has been collapsed.
The way I understand it, we both need to click to become allies, so I should have more recruits than allies, right?
[edit] ok, I figured it out. When I become allies with someone, they disappear from the "recruited" list. So hopefully it's enough to have 25 recruits+allies to complete this quest...
Comment has been collapsed.
Loot Detector quests appear to require purchase. You won't be getting the quest completed without it. The "bugs" are the anomalies which show up on a picture. For example, one of them is a loophole thing on the family and friends building graphic. Basically, it's out of place.
Comment has been collapsed.
Btw it's not a Steam deck.. since they're giving away Elgato Stream Decks

They are rewards from quests or you can buy a pack of five for 5 euro.
Comment has been collapsed.
ah, i guess we'll just have to wait then for the rest of the quests. thanks!
Comment has been collapsed.
Some people have already their decks full. It's a really disappointing garbage system (trade). I had 12 cards and 1 duplicate with the loot detector and booster pack. => 13
And i have done all quests. The trade system is just a gift link and no 1:1 trade. So multi acc for the win, mucho lame imo.
Comment has been collapsed.
Is the Exp System bugged? I did every quest including the Loot Detector quests which are available until now and only have 931 exp? How all these ranked People have 946 exp (15 exp more)? Did I made something wrong? (And yes I bought the Loot Detector before I did all the quests of course)
Comment has been collapsed.
Did you finish all the card quests? (impossible if you don't cheat with gifting through different accounts)
Comment has been collapsed.
Actually not. These are the only quests which I left out because I don't want to cheat (atleast for now). I am missing 5 of them. Collect 15, 20, 25, 30 & 34. But does these give exp also? I mean they are not marked with any exp reward though.
Comment has been collapsed.
You get the card booster? That's the only thing I can think of that gets you more cards, unless you do some trading.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep. I actually bought both and have the collector cards. That's why I am so confused.
Comment has been collapsed.
Maybe you completed the friends recruiting quest before you bought your Loot Detector? This quest gives 150 EXP, with Loot Detector extra 10% (+15 exp), the amount you are missing?
Comment has been collapsed.
Well the Friends Recruiting Quest did not even showed up. I used the same account I used last year and I already have friends on that account. That could maybe be the reason.
Comment has been collapsed.
hello, can someone explain to me what this is about?
i dont understand anything from the OP
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, there are quests and rewards, raffles for Steam keys.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry my lack of ability to explain is still affecting me a lot, let me know what could I write to make it simpler, or which part is confusing.
I'll try to rephrase or see what I can do to improve.
Comment has been collapsed.
i guess its just that i never heard of it and simply wanted to know what this is even about... preferably in a manner befitting for total noobs to understand π
generally speaking, quite a few of discussions here lack some sort of introduction to the event/theme/whatever and start out right into the details like everyone is supposed to already know what they are talking about. just my 2 cents
btw... how long does it last?
is it worth it starting it now? without paying for anything?
Comment has been collapsed.
It's fine XD
Also I didn't include any info or presentation of the event itself as well, just added them recently.
Hope that clears some of the issues up.
- To be honest idk how long it'll last although the irl event is just for a few days, not sure if same applies to the web one.
- As anything better start early since you don't know if you'll be late to the rewards, since all are First come first served policy.
- Paying might give you some advantages but... not all time is worth doing that. (This part I really depend on previous Paid users experience or people who know better than me about this to explain)
So basically that currently.
Comment has been collapsed.
Now I have finished all the free quests, and have 4 cards (with 2 duplicates).
I don't have any friend who is interested in this event, and I don't trust random person on the Internet.
So with their trading system, no 1-1 trade, the only sensible approach is multi accounts, isn't it?
Hope that I will get more unique cards later during the event.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sadly unless you know someone you can trust to exchange 1 by 1, btw don't send the link to other people or they'll just take it directly without needing you to confirm.

The paysafe card sounds nice, but I think it wont be possible to reach that level without paying for the loot detector (otherwise they would massively go lose).
Comment has been collapsed.
i don't think so, last year i easily reached lvl 10 and in 2022 lvl 9 or 8.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, levels should be no problem.
The loot detector only quests never gave any XP last year, only that small percentage more from normal quests.
Comment has been collapsed.
Only problem i see with paysafe card is that is only redeemable in Germany so we probably have to use vpn.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh yeah, I already see the abusers and multi-accounts. π they always ruin the fun for all the honest people.
Comment has been collapsed.
They sure as hell will abuse this.
Remember what happened 2 years ago with those premium lootboy packs as a relative low level reward?
multiaccount galore.
Comment has been collapsed.
Funny you say that you hope people won't abuse it when you stated earlier you will use a VPN to redeem them even when you not in germany.
Comment has been collapsed.
I've just redeemed the paysafecard, but without a valid address from Germany (including name, birthday etc.) this is not possible. So it can't really be exploited, as a mobile phone number must also be used for each account.
I don't know how this can be compliant with the GDPR, but I also wonder how epix can run these raffles without having specific terms and conditions..
Comment has been collapsed.
Probably won't get that hard, even with Loot Detector, on Day 1 most of them only reached Lvl 4.
While we're still at Lvl 3, but probably later more quests will show up.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. I'm going to have to share this info with the gamers in my family and extended family. I had forgotten I still had an account with them, but my browser didn't forget.
^ _ ^
I'll also have to pass the info on to my favorite table top gaming shop, since it's probably not even on their radar on this side of the ponds.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's always good to celebrate with family at Gamescom.
Comment has been collapsed.
Of course, but only in the future would we do so. I'll have to figure out how to get them to stick around with me after attending a future Assembly first (and that's before taking into account intercontinental logistics). It'll be at least a year or two of planning and negotiating.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't recommend getting Loot Detector. Last year there were 2 Loot Detector raffles, but only 50 and 70 keys. So it's not guaranteed that you'll get anything out of it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep... only raffles and no guarantees... thx for the warning!
Comment has been collapsed.
Although from what I heard it's just raffle currently, not sure when they'll start, if you reach 15/20 cards you just get a ticket as entry to the raffle of those games.
Comment has been collapsed.
That definitely would be ideal for many people, I hope that is how they are handling it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just got confirmed from people who reached over there, only says
"You're in the XXX draw! Fingers crossed!"
So no info about when it'll be done and until when.
