Estoc Trials - Week 8 - War #6 and #7 - General Update

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, May 24, 2013.

  1. 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.


    War #6
    Signups: 38
    No Match: 4

    Thunderdome - This one was a little tricky. Your strength was good, but your BFA was in an area that was too high for most of the clans with similar strength and size, or it was too low for a few others of similar strength and size. Lowering your BFA by about half would get you more potential matches, rather than increasing it.

    HKSAR Misfits Academy - Your BFA was the lowest in the signups. If you had one less member, you probably could have been matched up with "WE FROM CCCP"

    WE FROM CCCP - Your BFA was the second lowest and you probably could have been matched up with "HKSAR Misfits Academy" if you had one more member.

    BlAcK KnIgHtS Of ReTrIbUtIoN - Odd man out here. You could try increasing your BFA or your member size by 1 to increase your chances at getting a potential match.


    War #7
    Signups: 52
    No Match: 7

    SILVER - With your high member size, strength and BFA, you only came close to getting a match with -RCA-, but their BFA ended up being too high. Try lowering your member size by about 3 for next time.

    -RCA- - Odd man out here. If you lower your BFA by about half and lower your member count by 1 or 2, it will increase your chances of getting a potential match for next time.

    Thunderdome - Odd man out here.

    WE FROM CCCP - Low strength and the lowest BFA in the sign-ups made it hard to find you a match.

    Platinum Gods - You had the second lowest BFA in the sign-ups. There were two other clans in your BFA range but your strength was too high for them. Either increase your BFA or lower your strength a little.

    Wolves Reborn - Your strength was the lowest in the sign-ups.

    Naked And Famous KINGS - Your BFA was too low to match you with clans of similar strength and size.



    War #6

    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!
     
  2. 2 clans in a row with no matches.
     
  3. Devs BB Code fail lol
     
  4. Wow final days and more no matches some clans repeatably with only one possible option so they are doomed for getting points.
    Shouldn't you be doing 1 point at least for no matches.?
    Some players have lost 16 possible points in a week through no matches.

    Your continued response is lower your BFA to most clans.so the game players have supported and worked hard at for months or years and your solution is to throw away all they worked for?

    Would it not just be easier and more fun just to lock rosters at 30 people and randomly match clans. With the restriction that no two clans match each other twice in the same week. Every match up is 50/50
    No one has the chance to regularly beat the same opponents.
    Stuff fair. All fair does is give no matches or put the same two clans against each other. This would chuck matches all over the place and every clan has a chance of getting better or worse match up each time
    Fair wars have destroyed clans and ruined seasons for some. So go back to what this is war clan v clan the only limit is set amount of players. We all hate clan a has 2-10 more people than clan b so take that out and leave the rest to chance and mayhem
    Otherwise you better rethink no match rewards as all you will do is create far more of them or one sided constant same matched clans
     
  5. So a leader board clan would be matched against a clan of unranked players? Wow that's a great idea. We should also get rid of electricity, the automobile, and any other advances we have made in the last 200 years.
     
  6. BB code fail! :lol: :lol: :lol:
     
  7. Your match up is awful devs. You guys still need to do a lot of work. How the heck did we get the hit squad with 4 lb players and we have none and they have 3 more members than us. Your rating today a big fat 0. I really wonder when you see a ZAFT clan, do you ask yourself how can we screw them today. Lots of work still to be done on these ee war match ups.

  8. All I know is our matchup put us against a clan with an average per person of a highier cs by 2.6 mil. Not sure how this is fair or a good matchup.
     
  9.  Hawbs really kaw is equal to the last 200 years of evolution??
    And they could prestige link if you'd rather but face it unless you want to non stop war RCA or warlor you won't war anyone else with the current match ups. Or lack there of.
    Close wars are great but very rare.
    Random albeit maybe with say a prestige link would be a good leveller of the playing field. Or you could put clans into leagues for example but anything to promote more matches with more variety has got to be good for kaw surely.
    Warring or not warring ( no match because they didn't sign up) the same people every couple of days certainly holds no appeal to me.
     
  10. An update on your equipment progress?
     
  11. I can't hit this pal eb. I was in war, did a decent job and now this? Hello...... Can u fix this so I can play the darn thing?
     
  12. Devs just give us the stats and what slots the new eq is for. I don't care what it looks like, it's just a preview and I don't need descriptions and what not .
     
  13. Seems like you're just waiting for the season to be over, so as to not hear complaints and people not doing the last wars.
     
  14. As the last war comes around, they'll remember and post a picture of the preview(s).
     
  15. No point of a preview after the season. At that point we can just wait.
     
  16. Devs, any news on this preview? Any year now
