The Grand Acquisitions Race has come and, well, gone. It only lasted around a week, which is a common complaint and understandable. I managed to complete everything without too much effort. Overall, I would grade the event with a C+. It was on route to an A, but took a dive at the end.
I really enjoyed how the event started. We got a nice news broadcast, an awesome hologram of the Chevin telling us what they wanted, and a voice over for our Government contact. There was more story than the Rakghoul event and I found the tasks less tedious.
One developer, and I cannot find the quote, said there was a twist at the end. As far as I can tell, there wasn't really. On the Republic side, the SiS guy said he'd do some investigating and let us know. Then we got a simple mail mentioning the Gree fleet and that was it.
I really thought we'd get a video of the Gree Fleet and an introduction to the Terror from Beyond Operations to finish up the event. Instead, we got that weak mail. It's a shame since it started out so strong. Could the layoffs have had something to do with the seemingly unfinished ending?
Oh well, now it's back to my level 10 Sniper! :)
