Sorry the OP fails to mention some of the short comings of the old system wars. First of all, 90% of system wars were called off before they ever happened because the two sides couldn't agree on a roster. I know, I tried and tried sometimes weeks before the actual war date, then they go call it off cause one side realized they were going to lose. Remember when Osiris had those huge LB rosters? That lasted about 4 months then no one wanted to fight them anymore. This ended the system war champs. Second, are you going to keep traditional system war mechs? Two day wars? Not automatic opts in? Turtling Hansels? Sorry my friend, but I think you are remembering systems with rose colored glasses. No support.
Support to old school war. This promote for new player to learn and war from pin. Also promote clan unity and clan alliances. In the past before clan make alliances they do system wars for fun and to know each other.
This is just some minor problem on the past by old system war. Majority on old system war actually fun specially those are initiated by new clans and as individual you Merc and join them. This where the fun begun because you never know your opponents later on. So helping track leaks is a must to pin. I had plenty on good experience and always have fun win or lose on old school war. Now EE when winning players whine when losing look for the blame game. War suppose to be for fun not looking for scape goat. Old school war you meet new ppl all the time and make friends with new players and help them and encourage them to stay in the game. Now EE players are the same ppl all the time with plenty of alts nothing new to mentor or encourage to stay in the game. EE is not for fun but for rewards. Rewards that are useless except mith
I don't see anything happening Dev's don't care about it. Look at the forums, pages and pages of feedback on S5. Did anything happen? This game has changed significantly, it's not Kingdoms of war anymore. It's Kingdom of EB!!! You fill up devs pockets by spending on xtals and nobs...
Musang, in sorry but I did system wars extensively in 2011 and you must be suffering selective memory loss if you think there was no whining. And let's not forget the turtling. You'd go hours with only one-two ppl in the war cause they feared leaking. Ppl would get buddies in the outside to pin while sleeping. And God only knows why the devs felt they needed to last 2 days.
