Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta someone was obviously smoking pot when they decided to set the new war system to start at a time when the whole of europe is sleeping. the idea of estoc was to mantain clan loyalty, how is that possible with an auto join into a sys war. ATA stop letting your employers drink or smoke weed on the job they are royally ****ing us over
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Thanks for the feedback, we'll take it into consideration. ^ typical ata response to everything
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta What do you want them to do move us all to the same time zone and buy us all a nice beach house? There has to be a set time to test bata and it is set to accommodate the majority...no matter what time it is set half the world it's inconvenient for...they set this time to work around the highest activety when most play the game...I want to know where it says these times for bata test are the concrete times forever in war system...they are just bata...ur clan can start a war anytime it wants after bata is over and war system is live...am I missing something?
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Hap these are devs hosted events from my understanding. Specific times will be available each week for a clan to sign up. We will not be able to chose our own times for war, only able to chose from a select number of options per week. My question to you is, when this thing goes live, if you lose your edge every time you leave ur clan, how can you war from your home clan every week if it is comprised of members with different TZs while auto join feature is in effect? Also how can you expect all members from different TZs to have a shot at obtaining the edge from their home clans if auto join feature remains in effect without adjustment? You say wait and see how it works, and I don't need to wait and see on this particular point. I am currently in the process of clearing out my roster for beta tests. I'm forcing people from their home to go park somewhere else temporarily so those that aren't busy with RL this weekend can war from home. How is this scenario going to change when it goes live unless we express that this is a potential problem now? As it stands right now, anyone who can war on Friday but not Sunday is going to lose their edge so we can also do Sundays war. Since this is beta, this isnt such a big deal for testing purposes as I want my members to have as much exposure to the new system as possible, so we are going to attempt BOTH times for that very reason. However, this will be a real issue in my opinion if its not adjusted prior to go live. My point is not that I would like it adjusted in the beta I would like it adjusted when it goes live and really matters. This will be my last post trying to articulate this issue though, because I feel I am saying the same thing in different ways and my point is not being grasped lol
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta LP022, I forgot to add in my post that I find all your concerns valid and support the idea of the member having to options to opt out war without leaving clan. Hap, you will know what you are missing out when the system is live.... Maybe we know dev too well.....
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Thanks LP022 for the explaining in details. If you are a clan owner/admin trying to organize for beta war and if you care enough for your clan member, you will definitely feel the pain of the proposed system.
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Maybe u are right...I just don't see any evidence to suggest that these will be dev hosted and set times after bata...and I see no evidence to suggest one will be forced into active status after bata...Im under the impression this is just a test to make changes to a new war system that any clan can use anytime they want and some restrictions for bata test purposes were implemented..and in response to your question I've decided that getting into a good war clan with loyalty no matter what the circumstances are is the best solution... I've been trying hard to get into hit squad which in my opinion is the best war clan in kaw...problems of loyalty and clan members coming and going and coming back is not a matter of rules in a war system it's a matter of friendship and trust
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta U know I'm wrong alot of times so who knows...we will see soon...if u are right then definitely give some feedback on that issue after the bata....I understand how your preposed issue could be a problem for some if you are right about how it will turn out...good luck in your wars : )
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Anyone doing beta friday? I need a clan! Not sunday, i already have a clan for that one.
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Does this mean if we fully unload on someone,then we knock ourself out? If so that kinda take away the xtaling on strip targets out of the equation, unless u want to lose plunder for draining your bar. If I'm wrong plz correct me but that's how it sounds to me.
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta could clan participate in both wars? I think do Friday and then participate in Sunday too?
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta btw I don't understand ppl who are against this system or talk about one or another problem; this is beta for test and feedback!!! ppl should think about it before talk about..... how this will be work in action is unpredictable
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta Suck it up suzies. War at midnight. Ive done many 24 hr wars gone well thru the night. If u dont have the passion to give up sleep for war then u will stay at the second rate war clan that u are.
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta LP i just been remembered why I am in your clan!! Couldn't have written it better myself! To my opinion the only way to settle this is to stop with being active when war start! Never got the reason for that introduction anyway. With people are able to choose to become active you will overcome this and clans can remain "complete"
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta If these events are regularly scheduled then it is true that auto join will deter many. It also is a rather enjoyable strategy to use: who will enter. But at the same time, entering full and entering low will pose a problem. Imagine u have 1 or 5 hoin at start then have your 5 or 10 big hitters come in at the last 20 min and take everything from other team. Does others not see how this strategy can abused?
Re: Estoc Trials - Open Beta @pinky- since the goal is for this to not be a turtle war, we probably won't have to strip targets to open them for steals. Plus, we never did fully unload on steal targets in LR. So ssshhhhh.
