THE GENEVAN EXPRESS 2 - FEEDBACK


FORMAT:​

What did you enjoy about the event?​

What did you dislike about the event?​

What do you think we could improve in the future for these types of events?​

 
Honestly, liked the ending, and the fact I got to try my survival skills for this last day, just sucks I missed two days due to bad scheduling...
 
FORMAT:

What did you enjoy about the event?:

A lot of things, Friendly Antlions, People actually living there, People From the Genevan Express choosing their fates if they either go back or stay, The Adjudicator killing Miles, Everyone getting high on the express or simply people getting closer to eachother by experiencing and talking about their lives in the city.

What did you dislike about the event?

A lot of things, We could have done more in the train before the Crash, A lot of us had barely any ammo or equipment to properly explore. The map was nice but the weather way making it horrible in my opinion, The Creatures were too OP too, From 100 HP to sudden 23, Are you kidding? We could have also gotten something more than just a ending explained by the text, We could have gotten possible +content for each people, Those who chose to go back to the city would in an additional day arrive at an actual Genevan Outpost map (I believe there is a CCR or Genevan outpost map) and those that chose to stay would embark to other maps (There's plently of them, Come on man.)

What do you think we could improve in the future for these types of events?

Adding more possibilites, Make it more fair for the people playing. More Ammo, Equipment anything works.

I would also Probably not spawn jack shit ton of creatures from all sides when most of the expedition group is looking into a crate And manages their inventory to fit the shit from the crate into their inventory.

As i have stated before, add extra content to the two groups, Those that return to the city would appear at a Outpost(Gmod CCR outpost) and would be approached by some CSF or Genevan Guard soldiers Who would contact C24 to come pick the survivors up.


As for the other group, they could travel where they would please, Maybe contacting the Lambda Resistance or any other Famous Group in the Outlands.
 
What did you enjoy about the event?

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and buildup of the Genevan Train. The ambient aboard the train felt amazing and the pacing kept me engaged from start to finish. The coordination between participants also helped the event feel alive and unpredictable. ( the chinese girl was peak willard, and when she yelled "COPAAAAAAAAAA" to a CivPro I was sold ).


What did you dislike about the event?

At times, the pacing felt uneven, certain scenes dragged while others moved too quickly, making it a little hard to keep track of everything happening. There were also a few moments of confusion about what we were supposed to do or where to go next. A clearer flow of direction or communication could have made the experience smoother. ( the guy who was minge walking/running didn't help )

What do you think we could improve in the future for these types of events?

It might help to give participants a short briefing beforehand outlining objectives, key areas, and what tone or theme to expect ( it can be done IC or by other means ). A bit more coordination on timing and progression would help the story unfold more naturally. Adding more interactive elements or smaller side choices could also make participants feel like their actions have a deeper impact on the event’s outcome. ( almost no one was rolling for stuff, maybe someone could have burned or destroyed a pod and we could have lost one of the only things to melt snow
 
Loved the opening train chat and crash. For me it definitely peaked at the first half of day 2 with us all struggling for survival.

Only thing I hated was having to miss the back half of day 3 but I think I got in some good passive on the first half I was able to attend.

Borderline unrelated because the only through line is a train, but I would love to see a murder mystery on a train one of these days in V3.
 
Loved everything about expo. I missed the first day but the survival elements were amazing. Ending gave my character a PEAK conclusion to her storyline. Only complaint is that the survival elements were not as prominent. I had like 3 stews and they lasted me until the end of the expo, not really needing to worry about food.
