Estoc Trials - War #8 - General Update

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Apr 13, 2013.

  1. or rather i would tell you how i want you to understand it... further expound on it so to speak...

    oh and btw no need to farm me in-game... I have no qualms with you... you have some arguments that needed clearing :D ... bash me here if you will
     
  2. umm more info in a few minutes... how old is this post :) ...... maybe I missed it or maybe your just seriously slipping devs
     
  3. Devs have you considered the idea to let a select few clans test out your war system before the general public uses the system? I'm not sure how that would work but it would seem like a good Idea.

    Then again I haven't warred in a while I'm eb'ing it up
     
  4. Also where is KaW creative to lighten up the mood? He/she seems to have good humor lol
     
  5. @Odin they did run a beta test at start that worked well then they have altered it every week and know we have a war system that seems to be broken
     
  6. Lol wasn't aware of that bit still where is KaW_Creative? I like him or her better
     
  7. It worked then cos it was new and exciting, and being opt out first meant any clan could and did sign up.

    But that one week change to a 40 requirement killed many clans.

    And the realization of the cost of warring and losing also meant that many clans have totally fallen by the wayside.

    I wonder if still have participation stats for then, and compare it with now.
     
  8. Are you taking into account that if you match 29 members against 33 they will have 8 more xtals?? That is not a fair matchup!! War 9 Battlegrounds against Murder War!
     
  9. Really bad MatchUps again, you can't put a stronger clan with 4 more against a weaker clan! That doesn't function!!! Pls show us your counted stats for this war...
     
  10. Not fair .stronger clan and outnumberd.this is insaine
     
  11. Don't listen to the noobs who's a like wtf it's been an hour and u haven't fixed it they do know how hard and long it is to fix thx keep it up ur doing a great job the game is getting better
     
  12. Wow that is a lot of tears Brethilion or whatever your name is. There will always be imperfect matches bc no 2 clans are the same. That being said it was always go the other way
     
  13. Now I'm tired of your whining so after your EE war is over I'm coming for you. So pot up, mith, bank whatever you must do. You have 2 hours  (oh and I don't outnumber you, so no crying)
     
  14. Have fun
     
  15. @Devs

    With fewer clans signing up it, it is harder and harder for you to make good match-ups, which in turn is causing fewer clans to sign up. You have a great concept with the EE wars, but looks like it needs some tweaking to increase participation and to produce consistently even matchups. To re-iterate someone of the suggestions (and add some new ones):

    (1) Change the matchup process: Best suggestion so far is to create a single number measuring strength that incorporates stats, build, bfa and bfe. This will allow matches on only two dimensions: size and strength, instead of the multi-dimensional problem you now face and should produce more even matchups as well.
    (2) Give advantage(s) to the weaker clan:
    a. Slight advantage to someone KO’d – instead of emerging from KO with 25% of your troops emerge with 30 – 50%.
    b. Add to the weaker clan enough bfa and/or bfe to equalize those numbers across the clans
    c. Give the clan with less numbers enough xstals to equalize the number of possible actions. Randomly distribute extra allocation across the clan (perhaps giving a free xstal to those chosen)
    (3) Increase the participation rewards (especially to losers) to increase more clans to sign up.

    Personally I think without increasing clan participation nothing else will help that much as you face trying to match up a shrinking pool. Similarly, if more of the matches will be close and exciting participation is likely to rise.
     
  16. Technical Difficulties

    Some dumb intern spilled coffee on our servers so, yeah...
     
  17. I don't know why I like these threads 
     
  18. Clan rank 19/40 and 26 members vs clan rank 20/40 and 30 members... Really? Boys are giving it a good go, but really? Devs are doing a great job but some match ups are crazy and a waste of xtals
     
  19. would you have preferred a no match then?

    Anybody can win every war that they are given if they have good strategy. even with 4 less members, it is possible.
     
  20. Well ik that the new matching system is great now! Close matches n we know y we dont get them plz keep it up! Just wondering y recently its taking much longer. Earlier this week n last week wed get matched in 15 mins n now it takes 45, just wondering. We still have plenty pf time b4 war to make plans, but some seem a bit more frazzled. Is there a new algorithm in place or something? Anyway great job! N ppl, wars r won with organization not brute force. Just cuz some1 is stronger n has more ppl means nothing, u prolly have higher bfa or something. So suck it up, put on ur big boy underwear n war.
