Hi all, this post is mainly wrote for the amazon team, just because they are the ones who have to take the decision. but any opinion is welcome.
-What do you think about freezing wars/invasions this days?
I mean, right now, the game lets you make influence and throw wars as always… but… it should be?
Imagine 1 company making influence 30/12 and throwing war at 31/12… no-one will be here… you just need 10 guys to take a city… same for 24/12-25/12 and invasion will be lost almost sure.
I like the idea. I saw that in many other games to be honest.
One problem is that some people now are happy cause it is like it is, and some who want to spend holidays in peace are mad about it.
If we change it, and no wars/invasions during holidays, then first people I mentioned will be mad, and the second group will be happy.
Question is, which group is larger;)
I love pvp, but yea, I don’t want to any rats try to take our terrority during we are celebrating. So love the idea.
How about no? If you want to spend time with your family and not play the game, please be my guest, but let other people who prefer otherwise to play it. If you managed to conquer a city once, surely you would be able to do it again. What you are asking is basically to get free gold while you are not playing the game… It isn’t fair to others who do. And before you say anything - I belong to a faction that lost 4 major cities (1 of them was ours) because people decided to take a break for the Holidays. But you know what - next year when we get back we will re-take those cities and show them what’s what.
Just play the game… or dont, but stop asking for free stuff.
Blimey, there’s quite a bit of lack of festive cheer in this thread!
First off I don’t think there’s enough time for AGS to actually do anything in response to this, so all of the people wishing to play and overthrow settlements with zero resistance will likely still be OK to do this.
Going forward, I don’t think this is a particularly bad thing to consider - it’s not unreasonable to want/have to spend time with your family over the holiday period over playing a computer game. There does need to be a balance, because people are also well within their right to play NW for a variety of reasons and to block off some parts of the game is pretty major. Equally using the holiday to achieve things you couldn’t outside the holiday isn’t that great either.
Having a break for a holiday is not possible due to if one group gets a holiday then all other groups would too. Otherwise we would be only able to war like once a year. XD
I do think war influence needs changing though. You can push a territory into conflict in like 30-60 minutes but to defend and get that influence down takes about 12 hours. It should be the same influence addition and subtraction for both sides.
