Estoc Trials - Week #3 War #4 - General Update

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Apr 18, 2013.

  1. @SR - I'm fairly certain war participation is not a mandatory requirement of kaw.
    But if it is... Plz kaw admin don't take my iTunes card 
     
  2. Awww poor warlor when the system doesn't work in their favor they throw a tantrum and not fight, But when others ? The system they are the first ones to call them cry babies. Talk about hypocrites. Nice to see you finally showing your true colors. Now shut up n let others have their opinions or fight it out regardless the match up. We do
     
  3. Oh a more vocal SR  hmm as I have already said this is a joke tantrum? No not really  how about this ill pm you our war numbers tomorrow want a rematch?
     
  4. I dont know their clan, but i agree. Fight it out no matter what if you both decide not to mith then do that dont complain to the devs about your match
     
  5. :lol: You really think we're complaining don't you?  It was a JOKE. As for working on strategy, while it can always be improved, I think we've got it down pretty well... Don't you? ;) At least well enough to not need to practice on each other. This would've been an awesome war, but we as a FAMILY decided to not do anything. That's our choice.
     
  6. It is completely your choice... No one can tell you different, but just dont blame devs
     
  7. War pretty much mandatory at sign up if u wanted to sit for 4 hrs shouldn't have signed hp
     
  8. Nike's statement was a joke. Haha. No one blaming devs. It was a fair matchup by devs.
     
  9. I personally have no issue with the position Warlor and WH have taken, and I'm from same clan as SR barcode above lol :D

    What I do want to know, and I and others are fully entitled to try to understand, is about getting about a better understanding (transparency) in how the matchup process works.

    There seems to be some people who don’t want further information on how matchs-up are made. That’s their view and fine, but they have no right to interfere with other KAW players and clans who simply want to better themselves. These are paying customers who would like for there to be reasonable matchups and results in their view.

    Let KAW devs answer the damn question, and devs please answer it as so far very little information provided apart from a few pretty charts.

    Some clans obviously understand how this works better than others. Good on them, but what is being asked for is very reasonable as I say.
     
  10. Firstly, let me say that at the moment there are some outstanding war clans out there – ER, MurderWar, Warlor and Warlor Hellhounds to name just some of the ones. They lose very few and beat other clans much higher in the LB often. Congratulations to them, there is a gap between them and the others.

    I’m currently in Battlegrounds and we’ve only ever beaten one of the above, and that was WH when we had 3 more players, and even then very, very close. So I would class our performance as average or above average only. You can see this is not a whinge – congrats to those above.

    What people like myself and others, who get up at 3am at times and burn real money (crystals) only to end up in a one sided war, is simply to know how we can be more competitive. The one sided result may be a fair result based on superior strategy by the opposition, or it may be other factors that play a bigger role.
     
  11. Questions I would like to see a comment on include:

    - does clan LB rank come into it at all and if so how?
    - how is the range / spread of players wanting to war impacting match-ups – e.g. Say you have a 70 ranked lb player then the next few in the 400-600 range versus a clan with highest player is say 150, but many more in top 500, how is this played out?
    - BFA (that very emotional subject) – devs say it is included in matchups and must be
    - if so, then why is not equipment BFA included or is it? This has a far bigger impact for most playes than ally BFA

    These are reasonable questions. Now if you say it’s getting too scientific, well guess what many clans are being very scientific in their approach. Some of the tracking systems are far from just pen and paper.

    So devs please some clarification, and for those of you not interested do not interfere with a very reasonable request.
     
  12. Development team please stop trying to fix match up every time you guys screw with the system it get ever more messed up just go back to math u where using in week 0 war# 1
     
  13. WarLoR WarHounds vs Spankers... I'd love to know how this matchup occured... Not only are they 3x our BFA but they had +2 players as well. Great job and respect to WarLoR WarHounds, but this was a terrible matchup.
     
  14. @Warlor Hellhounds I'm certain your match is perfect - it looks very close. 27 vs 27 looks like a perfect match up. I'm certain you have a 50% chance of winning as the stats and bfa are within range.

    Same story everyone else gets Maybe Penguin will share some words of advice. He was very helpful last night on these match up threads.

    Maybe you should have done one action? Or been hit 3000-4000 times over two hours in a clearly great match up a wasted billions in pots?

    Kaw_admin these really are mismatches, as Warlor history shows. Zaft was the only close match in the past week. Clans want to war but these matches cannot be rationalized mathematically or otherwise.
     
  15. Agreed and supported! This is a terrible system. I'm not spending another dollar on this game to be competitive when it is clearly not being run well.
     
  16. @misjudged, I would have to respectfully disagree. I don't think the zaft vs RCA match was a good match up. RCA was warring weak and their strongest had 3 top 15 lb on him. All I can say is congrats to Zaft and mad respect to RCA, they almost pulled off a win despite the odds stacked against them.
     
  17. Oh dear.. What part of IT WAS A JOKE is not getting through to you people? Yes it was a perfect match, yes it would've been a really close war, but in the end... No one wins.. Both would have lost billions in pots, and the losing side would have lost mith, EE and a level of Rancor. Does that seem in any way logical to you? Maybe you should think through the reasons we chose not to fight before trashing us for our choices.
     
  18. Nothing personal against warlor but u said urself u exploited the war system so u didn't lose any EE or rancor so that's in sorts an exploit and should be penalized lose of EE and rancor on both sides the u would risk losing that EE and rancor to another clan and 1 clan would have lost it if u warred respectfully like u should have
     
  19. Nike are you saying you want to war and come out richer? You want to war, but not risk anything? Am I reading wrong?
