oh.. we didn't encounter any of beize destruction, only we counter that yellow boss wield 2 spear which he's annoying (forgot the name)

That's awesome. The game should always punish you for failing to do something. (not being sarcastic)

Yeah.

Instead of punishing you for succeeding to do something.

There's no punishment for failing code captures

so everybody just straight up kills the boss in an mpa

The first time this happened to me, I thought it was a weather effect or something in the coast.

But yeah, environment changes due to player action sounds like a pretty cool thing to me.

Someone else may of ran through the same block and caused it to happen when your party loaded in. People running straight to the boss and ignoring codes this happens a lot in those cases.

>fighting boss

>CHANGE-OVER CODE CAPTURE when the boss has like 1 HP left

>Any form of punishment

You get punished for completing save the crystals in Wind and Rain.

Yup messes up the spawns and the mpa punishes you because they wanna stay around and kill the mobs that spawn when a pse burst occurs off a successful crystal protection

An another code that somewhat punish you if failed is darchryme, where the surviving ones explode into a localized dark lighting aoe that last a few minutes.

pugs for rain and wind are terrible anyway because some people just solo and so you get 1 rockbear from a code lel

Incorrect. A failed code negates the code Exp meseta drop, and Item drop.

Incorrect. That's lack of reward, as if you didn't have the code.

I remember only seeing that once after hearing about it from beta. It was cool the first time.

If you fail the Cake sister protect code, their truck should blow up.

Only if no other players are within a block or so from you. If you run with the MPA it's almost always 3 bears.

as long as there is at least one 4man party in the whole mpa, yes, it's like you are saying
and crystals bursts are feasible if you can manage to get the mpa into A-1 while 2-3 people launch the burst around the map

Opportunity cost is a punishment.

Don't worry, when Melitta gets her own TA, there will be penalties for failing to capture.

This. So much this.

The red rain is awesome because it's creepy as hell.
Takes you by surprise because it's so rare.
Also reminds me of SIREN.
