Estoc Trials - Open Beta - Round 2! *Updated*

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Nov 8, 2012.

  1. Oops posted to early.

    So if they just join back to the clan they got kicked from they keep the bonus.
     
  2. War #3 Start Time:Sun Nov 11th, 3.30am(PST) 11.30am(GMT) 7.30pm (SGT)
     
  3. I like the new system alot. Great idea., but with the edge n losing it if u leave clan. Say a clan wants to war twice in a weekend but the same people can't be active. They'd have to leave n lose edge. So what if u gave a time limit. Like 12hrs they can leave clan n skip a war n not lose edge if back in that time frame.,n can war next day.
     
  4. @kaw_admin, can you please address my helpful suggestion below?

    The perception is still a reduction in drops, and that will continue. That is, until the broadcast message in CC is updated to be more complete. This would help everyone: players, support and devs.

    We love you too, devs. :D Just here to help. ;)


    Slightly edited from my original feedback e-mail for context:

    • I suggested the devs add who wins Bronze and the new Potions in the broadcast [update] message in Clan Chat at the end of the EB.

      We have been tracking the effect on drops after winning Estoc's Edge in the 2nd Trial.
      People have been complaining about the lower number of items dropped in Item EBs.

      I have been trying to convince people that perhaps we aren't getting items, but are getting hammers and amulets and bronze and such.

      So, I'm sure the devs are getting plenty of feedback on the Estoc Edge drop rate. The perception is a huge DROP in items awarded.

      I recommended that the devs add to the CC broadcast [update] message, so people can see how much an Item EB actually pays out.
     
  5. Yes, I agree huge decrease in drops since Estoc's edge. Also, aqua is useless because u can't use it and u can't sell it.
     
  6. The bonuses do nothing for me as to I s hansel
     
  7. Many clans do not have enough participants so they join forces. To lose the estoc edge makes it difficult to war.
     
  8. When is roster locked for tonight's war
     
  9. Yes, we're looking into it, thanks!

     
  10. From the feedback that we've been getting, some of the clans are having problems finding 50 committed members to join this weekend. Effectively immediately, we will be lowering the limit to 30 members. Good luck and we hope that'll allow more clans to participate!
     
  11. You we're saying that you will loose a level of estoc edge if you leave a clan/kicked. And this will encourage unity.
    We all know that every clan have members around the world and that means different time zones. This means that not everyone can participate in the war at the same time. So, to prevent being a sitting duck during a war, the player opted to leave the clan temporarily which is a sign of concern for the clan.
    Is there any way you can work out to retain the estoc edge level of those players who leaves the clan who never applied to another clan and comes back after the war?
     
  12. I feel that it is unfair to hansels that it is plunder not ally plunder. Is there any way you will change this? Because the wars do really nothing for us
     
  13. @kaw admin. With you lowering the limit on members. Are you going to refresh the lb. we were top 250 but we dropped today sorting out war roster. If clans drop to below 50 members they will drop in lb standings. I'm not whining bout it but the lb will not be true with numbers dropped.
     
  14. My understanding is the purpose of the estoc edge is to promote clan loyalty. But the auto join feature does the exact opposite. There is no way every clan member can participate in every war. So the choices are leave and lose your reward or leak.
    I suggest you add an opt in option. Members and/or admin choose who is warring for their clan during the sign up period. I also wouldn't have auto join with this either as clans can be strategic with who and when their fighters join the war.
     
  15. @nellis. Exactly what I was thinking. We had to get guys that couldn't war to leave clan. So they wouldn't be sitting ducks. Resulting from us dropping from the cutoff point all the way to 334 
     
  16. @kaw_admin. the beta war history from first round seems to have vanished from our clan war history. This would have been slightly helpful for scouting/recon purposes of opponents but more importantly those are our war records. Can you put them back please?
     
  17. never mind mr and mrs dev. I had a brain fart
     
  18. I need answer. Is the Estoc bonus only for the war or do you get it for everything. If so if you leave a clan after the Beta is over do you get to keep it.
