No Halloween visuals?  Or am I not getting them for some reason?  I made sure that event visuals is selected in settings.

Good that it finally did, and regrets for your troubles. I had that in the past on one of my boxes which has some spurious memory issues (crc problems I assume). This update went smoothly on all four.

Btw, thanks @Stinboi

Could it be that your setting for Graphics -> Special Event Visuals is not checked?

Why not every bigger date? why not get more people in the game?

when the update happened i experienced around 8 crashes each one coming after a massive lag spike i think on my end, might have been my virus protection not liking what was happening, the third crash caused my launcher to go through an update sequence but still had problems until i turned off the graphics on the launcher. i got very frustrated with it and went to bed afterwards. each crash did come with one of those oh no crash reports but i have no idea how to read them nor do i know where top locate them. I have yet to log on today due to a rl issue i am experiencing(stupid car theif) and will report if it is still happening then

Cheers for the boar practice dolls!

 

It's the first time I've ever seen them so they must've been created new for this event.  Nice work, art dev team!

As I said, I checked that already.  Checked and double checked inside and out of game.  It's checked.

 

I just logged into the game again and now the visuals are there. I'm not sure what happened.  I nothing changed since earlier today except time.  And yes, I quit and relaunched the game a couple of times after making sure I have Event Visuals checked this morning. Oh well, at least it's working now.

well i am not having fun in game because the game keeps crashing sometimes with crash reports and sometimes without, before yesterday i rarely maybe once every other month experienced crashing so something doesnt want to work properly for me

 

[Evilvision 301]

My client wouldn't update either. After a half dozen attempts, I just deleted the Jar files and then it worked fine.

[Finnn 3,298]

I'm getting 3rd in a row pumpkin shoulder pad, somehow lower chance to get old items stick out more for me today

Not 30% event as per usual? Why the lower rate?

Yee, this lies are terrible. Was 30% so dont know why pretend to increase it, when decrease it.

[kordethbludscythe 762]

update my client is working properly again but i had to first verify files on steam then verify files on the launcher and download the latest java update to get back to proper playing so i am happy playing the game again

Everyone is about a month early on that one not sure where the confusion there is coming from but Black Friday is at the end of November not October.

2020 was 10%, we increased it to 30% in 2021 due to issues we had at the time but we never intended that to become the new permanent rate.  In the end we did decide to bump this years up a little to meet it in the middle between 2020 and 2021.
