The problem and ways to the make the PO-2 event more fair

Currently theres still some issues with the current PO-2 event where you either get people ramming or somehow magiclly getting faster speeds when you take the shortcuts which normally work and the christmas smoke just blinding you so much and lastly the points decreasing every day for absolutely no reason.

These would be examples on how gajijn can make this race way more fair and not get tired of it.

  1. Make the leaderboard from 1000 to maybe either 2000 or 3000 so that more people can get the po2 easier and faster too.

  2. Add a new system where if somebody goes too far off the track they get automaticlly kicked out of there planes when they try to TK people who sit at the 1st place of the race.

  3. Stop shadownerfing the points after 1 day into the event this isnt like rainbow 6 siege ranked with hidden MMR where you lose points everytime you lose.

  4. Make it that you cant use smokes at all in the race so that you have a better time seeing stuff or atleast limit the smoke that the christmas smoke doesnt work.

  5. Make it that some hard shortcuts become even harder so that you dont have to deal with people getting so fast many times whers you cant even reach them anymore.

  6. (Optional) Maybe have a new map for these races bc its getting tired of having the same recycled map over and over again with this race.

These would be good things for gajijn to implement to make this madness stop with people raging and tking etc in this race bc its getting honestly annoying that we are dealing with this for so long.

whats also annoying is that somehow you only gain around 37+ at 1st place and lose 40+ when finishing at the top 5

Consider how many other games are being run at the same time and how that can affect standings.

I would suggest, that the first 1000 people WHO DON’T ALREADY OWN the Po-2, get one. Which means, those who have one, they can happily participate over and over again, but they don’t take away a slot from someone who doesn’t yet own one.

Agreed i forgot to add this idea aswell with making that people who have the po2 get excluded from the leaderboard of people who dont have it yet

Also: some people have thick smoke. This is extremely unfair I find. Flying blind is terrible in those mazes.

Fr had 4 people using the snow smoke in a match

Life isn’t fair. Live with it.
There’s no point in demanding absolute equality. It’s a pipe dream.

It is supposed to be a silly/fun Halloween event, but it sucks balls and has for years. Imagine having this ass of a mindset for a supposed FUN event. You must be terrible to be around if this is your POV on FUN events.

I think what you’re seeing is people reducing drag by breaking their landing gear.

I don’t mind getting the Po-2. I’ve already one, but prob not this one, I don’t know, I get it many years ago during an event and it was easy to obtain. The fact is, they made an event like this one making it extremely hard just to get what? A pretty useless aircraft

no the gear breaking thing is actually patched so its not possible anymore at all

Was that changed this year? It worked last year.

yea they patched it this year after many people complained about it being so annoying and im happy they finally listened about that but i hope they start fixing more stuff about this

“This aircraft will be added to your account within 48 hours after the event ends.”
