Estoc Trials - Development Update

Discussion in 'Past Announcements' started by admin, Dec 10, 2012.

  1. As you can see everyone wants an opt in spell not opt out. This has been addressed almost as much as lag and mith payout.

    You have stated that this is too hard to do at present and we all need to deal with that. But someone a few posts back came up with a great option. Give the owner the ability to use the veil on any member prior to roster lock.

    If this is abused by owners the players who feel wrongly veiled can simply leave that clan. No real harm done. Please at least consider this option.

    Thank you.
     
  2. I agree with blackhawks of Satan the devs are full of . They are not fixing anything or would have been fixed. If they made the opt out spell that doesn't work they could manage to make an opt I'm spell I mean really. Their opt out spells are made ignorantly. Instead of 8 24 48 hrs should be for war 1 2 3. And I also say it full of  about the response u made to me attack builds have no extra bonuses in these wars at all.
     
  3. thnk u kaw for the update but i think this 0 mith is not good if someone has 3 miths before war how he will make it 0 to buy more and if he did wouldnt it be a waste of the extra one he have
     
  4. One way to fix matchups may be to have everyone in clan declare active for war 3 hours prior to war at roster lock, that way matchups can be chosen on strength of the actual people warring. Also will help to eliminate inactives if people opt in for war. Sometimes people forget to do evasion spell so opting in for war could help you guys create better matchups. Hope this helps. I have to say I really enjoy the new war system even with problems you are working out
     
  5. ---Gabriel--- presents a possible work around on an opt-in spell that you will hopefully be able to implement when you have available resources. If a clan owner could set veil spells for inactives it would be a great asset for clan members are not able to log in frequently enough to set the right spell on time.
     
  6. You should be able to buy 12pots mith if you have 0. Other than that i have enjoyed the wars.
     
  7. I think the whole veil spells are a dumb idea. Why doesnt each clan member sign up like the last wars and have the roster still lock at 1 hr mark. Itd save alot of confusion.
     
  8. Yeah I think mith sale should be capped at 14 so can have the attack/spy spells
     
  9. I have a couple of suggestions:

    Estoc Edge Hansel Bonus
    Can you please look into their payout and change the bonus from % of plunder to % of total cash. Obviously you wouldn't keep it at 25% but reduce the percentage to the comparative increase in gold to around 7%.

    Zero Spies
    I know you responded to this before about not wanting to change mechanics but by getting rid of the DTW that you get in system wars you have changed this mechanic. Previously you could only assassinate until someone had 20% spies. However by eliminating DTW you can now assassinate until your heart’s content when they have 0 spies. This gives spies a huge advantage to spies now as they can keep their weaker part in troops at 0 and not get attacked while an attack build can't do this as if they keep their spies at 0 then they can get assassinated until their troops are cleaned out. I would suggest making once you're at zero for one of the bars then you're DTW on that type but can still be hit on the other bar.

    Veil uncast option
    Can you please add the ability to uncast the veil spells? For players whose plans suddenly change meaning they can war it’s a pain not being able to uncast and war with your clan. If you can only uncast until the 2 hour mark before the start time when match up occurs then this couldn’t be used to cheat the match making process.
     
  10. @kaw_admin, how about make a temporary fix to match ups. Have a max number of members warring. A minimum of 40 and max of 50 for the mean time so that there wouldn't be match ups of 40 vs 80.

    Clans with higher number of members who can be active in war need to pick their best kingdoms.

    A match up of 40 vs 80 is unfair and impossible to win.
     
  11. Hi, kaw since u limit the Mithri sales at 6. I think u shall let every1 buy cos Mithri will decrease when we cast n not every time we will win the war. New member are learning the war.
     
  12. Great, but again Anrod had posted a concern that has not been addressed. A kingdom that is forced to join a clan, for example a merc or a kingdom whose clan is too small to participate in war, for the sole purpose of winning and getting miths looses his hard earned estoc when he leaves that clan to continue being a merc or returns to his clan. If estoc helps you with eb drops why loose it when you leave. This is a game where you promote individual growth. Why chain a kingdom to a clan when you don't what to. Why then you sell nobility points for individual growth when you are now promoting clan growth, are you going to sell nobilty points to clans for clan growth? I will like a feedback since this was never mentioned.
     
  13. Would it be possible to cast a " Veil of Marital Illusion" spell that freezes spouses and children in a 4 hour stasis , enabling ability to war whilst appearing to be engaged in "chores" ? That would be most useful (I promise it won't be abused ) keep up the good work btw 
     
  14. Failing that, some weekday wars would be nice 
     
  15. Would be nice to be able to activate the "veil" well before the war starts 24-48hrs out as advertised as long as it "umbrellas" the duration of the war(especially if your out of town day of war
     
  16. Plz cap mith purchase at 14 for those having less than or equal to 13 mithrils left in inventory.
     
  17. What about a partial/full mith refund for clans that were miss matched in trials. I believe this would be fair as you have also admitted there was an issue in matching process. On purchase of mith u should be allowed 14 bars to cast all 4 spells
     
  18. If you read the forum u will see that you can cast all 4!! Have no mith- buy 6, cast 1 spell. Buy 6 more, cast another spell, buy up to six more and cast the remaining 2 spells! Also of you have 3 mith left cast 2 spells and a colour change, then buy the further 2 spells as above! So by buying 6 at a time you can cast all 4 spells and have 4 left over! Easy
     
  19. Good job devs..now with the new payout system, we have clans going to war with dead clans making free myth, for nothing. You ought to put a stipulation that sw's must have a minimum of 40-50 active members on each side..smaller clans can join larger clans, if they need myth...this is preposterous, please fix this. There cheating you and us..
     
  20. Mithril sale should be 14 max not 6 and once you get estoc edge you should get to keep it regardless if you leave the clan I would like to see that improved please.
