Major problem with the Hunt - very very upset!

Ok, I have to say that I am currently very upset with the hunt tourney! Currently there is 1 hour left until it finishes.

I'm currently #42 overall and was going to put in a last push to get #1. But none of the repeatable mission are giving any points! How am I meant to have a chance at winning? I've spending loads of time, many many hours on this for some game mechanics to spoil everything at the very end! I've been too rank pretty much through out, and when ie dropped a few places after a break I've climbed back up. Now it's impossible to do so!

So now I'm very upset with the game and beginning to wonder what the whole point is if you've not got a chance of winnin.

There is clearly something wrong with the rubber banding programming

Ok, I'm going to find a cave to go and cry in

    I totally agree that the system is bizarre and that it punishes people for being in front, but it surprises me that people are complaining about it (not just you) given that it has been this way the entire event.

    This event rewards people for not playing, which is not how it should work, IMO.

    I appreciate they are trying to find a formula that works, but the drastic changes every tournament are not a good thing.

    I totally agree. I been playing everyday and for the last 9 days in have been consistently in the top 15. For the last 24 hours the points I receive for a mission had never exceeded a 100. And the last 6 hours it has been around 10 points. Now its almost 0.

    And I can see other players must be obviously getting more points for their wins than me as my rank has been steadily dropping as well. ****!!!

    Yes very lame. dunno what the algorithm is, but I only played about 45 minutes total today and all my missions are rewarding zero points and I am watching my high water mark of 16 for the day move into the 30's. I'm sure I'll be out of the top 50 by end of the tournament.

    LAME

    Sorry, but I can't help but laugh at how odd this is.

    Would be nice to get an official response.

    6 hours ago there was around 40 points difference between me and rank #1. As my points for replaying a mission slowly heads to zero. There is frigging 500 point difference now between me and #1.

    How did that happen? How can they keep churning points when I no longer can?????

    Went from 1st place to 4th now and the levels of the missions keep dropping so no chance of points for sure now. Oh well no more money from me, learned my lesson.

    Yea, not happy about this. Could have probably gotten top 3, but now I might be lucky to stay in the top 50.

    If this were a 2-day event, I might be chuckling with you.
    ...but after 9 days anticipation and effort, this is a MAJOR let down! icon_cry.gif

    Every Sub tournament played, and spent most of the time in the top 15 for my main bracket, now I won't even make the top 150.

    Same here, currently 17th and dropping, no value in any of the missions. I would love to hear whatever crazy reasoning there is to this.
