News * There have been reports, both on the forums and sent via feedback, that certain clans are exploiting the system to their benefit. If you find evidence of this, please add it to these threads that we are creating for each war. Next week, we will go through the data and take any appropriate actions necessary. We are reading the responses, and the other threads that are posted, and will investigate the clans that were mentioned. * We are finding that very few clans sign up over 33 members, for all wars. To make matches more likely, and stop clans from signing up with numbers that will obviously get no match, we are going to be making adjustments to the max clan size for next week. War #1 Signups: 63 No Match: 7 ZAFT Corporation - Lower your BFA. _RCA_ - Odd man out here. We recommend increasing your BFA by about 50% for more chances at finding a match in the next war. -RCA- - Odd man out here too. You could always increase your size by about 1 or 2 to find some more matches for next time. Had you done that this time, you could have been matched up with _RCA_ Empire Rising - Try either bumping your BFA or lowering it for next round. Serpents Bloodline - Try increasing your BFA for the next round. Your size and strength was good but your BFA was one of the lowest in the sign-ups Rising Hawks - Your strength was too low for your size and BFA. Either boost your strength, or try lowering your BFA. If that doesn't work, you can try lowering your BFA and your size. Red Giants - Odd man out. Clan Size breakdown War #1 X-Axis - Clan sizes Y-Axis - # of signups As per usual, we will be monitoring clan BFA numbers and we will address any suspicious activity throughout the coming war. Please keep BFA changes post-sign up to a reasonable minimum! Anything beyond that and you will be warned and risk losing rewards and/or match-ups!
Lol - Telling -RCA- to increase numbers so that theyd match _rca_. I actually chuckled a bit at that one. Thanks KaW_Admin.
So instead of putting the RCA's together, why didnt you put Warlor with -rca- and BattleGrounds with _RCA_? I mean that would make more sense. Two less no matches.
These bad matchups are all because of equipment and prestige - you have nothing but people on waiting lists at this point or still warring and getting slaughtered These matchups aren't fun for winners or losers - been on both sides plenty of times Just stating facts trolls - now call me a whiner lmao
Yep devs are not listening about BFE, asking clans to adjust sizes as matchup are being reviewed to allow for more possible matches and so on. There is now and has been for a while a separate game played by most clans just prior to lock and match process. Clans count ppl who have cast in other clans and then add a couple more in the last minute hoping for a favourable match up in terms of numbers. I'm sure the aim of ee wars was not to spend and hour or two analysing but to war and have war strategy play a key role. Please sort this crap out - look at fixed size or simply make invisible those on other clans who have cast WOC?
Your bfa calculation is flawed from the start. You calculate the clans bfa where only a few have high bfa. There fore we get matched with a clan of much higher stats n bfa collectively cause of the high bfa of 3-4 peeps active in war. Our top 3-4 peeps have high bfa the next 3-4 have 50% less the next 20 have 75% less bfa. And you match us with clans of 1.5x stats n bfa of 90% of clan cause of 3-4 peeps. Which = loss if 80% of clan can not win atks on but 20% of opposing clan how is that fair n balanced as you say your trying to do. Failed atks = 0 plunder...0 plunder = loss now you do the math that's what we are paying for. You've discouraged more players from war which also = not buying xtals which = no revenue for you. Now being the smart people you are supposed to be your not doing what you say your doing obviously. Your way overcompensating for the bfa of a couple and screwing the rest of clan.
Cap the amount of BFA a single player can use in an EE war. Remove the whole calculation from the equation. If you are 1m cs, you can use 1m BFA. If you are 14mcs you can use 140m bfa. The point is at lower numbers, having a BFA difference of 1.5-2x isnt that big of a deal, but when you get to dealing with the top 4-6 clans, it makes a huge difference.
Whats the point of bfa match when clearly clan buy sell allys after match and many report this and from what i seen todate not one has been punished???
Before you started calculating bfa the spectrum of clans matched was much broader. The out comes were varied. Some times you were the anvil n sometimes you were the hammer some were too close to call till the clock struck 00:00. The last few weeks have been the same 5-6 clans in repeated succession and the outcomes were known at match up. The fun n mystery has been eliminated and the game has become stale again. I'm your attempt to appease a few you lost many. You've overcompensated for a few things n other slipped through the cracks. The more you tweak the system the worse it gets. In my opinion your greed was the undoing of EE wars and why it is now an epic failure. I like many looked forward to something new and exciting in this game that we have all played for a few years n spent more money than we care to admit lol. Just to see that ruined as well Hopefully you can fix this for next season. If not I doubt there will be a next season to fix it for.
Well the devs said they have big changes comming next season. I'm sure bfe will be factored in along with many other changes they know they need to make. Like they said they would be too drastic to do with only a week left, I know some things suck but St the end of the day no one makes us war, we choose to. Anyways just a thought hope you all have more fun.
