It’s like they don’t respect your time, huh?

This is another reason why I want wars to be open 24/7… pushing influence and capturing forts really doesn’t hit the spot… There should be a separate zone where it’s just open 24/7 for everyone who wants to participate.
War shouldn’t be “Hey guys we hate you A LOT, but how does this time sound for an invasion? oh that doesn’t work for you? how about this time?” no… it’s WAR, you’re supposed to just go and thrash about the lands.
DAoC man… they did it THE best when it comes to wars, sieging, defending.

AGS obviously knows about this issue and clearly they either (1) don’t care or (2) are siding with the territory owners to choose the war time, even though it is an easy “exploit” to overlap it with an upcoming update. It’s not like people don’t know it’s coming, e.g., [Wartungsarbeiten] Patch 1.5.5 - Official News / Offizielle Neuigkeiten - New World Forums
Why would the territory owner agree to this? It’s a easy “exploit” to avoid one war every week.
Just delete the whole player-controlled settlement mechanic. It has no end of issues, loopholes, and exploits.
Removing player control over settlements means you don’t have a handful of players deciding when a war can happen and you don’t need AGS limiting the number of wars that can be declared.

Boosting hoping a community manager sees and responds
Very disheartening that we have to plan wars around those who put their siege windows at the same time an update goes in. Agree, it is not about the gold but the time wasted pushing a territory into conflict for this to happen. Not to mention we usually go into the war with consumes popped on the off chance the server doesnt go down. Please make it right!

This is the second time against the SAME COMPANY that this has happened on this server in the past month. At the very least, you should schedule patches AFTER the last available siege window.

No response from Devs I will keep everyone updated on what happens tonight
Any server with downtime during war should have that downtime pushed back until the war ends, there’s no reason to shut down the main PvP of the game (that takes multiple people pushing for multiple hours just to trigger) for minor hotfixes. Have some respect for your players’ time.
REAL TALK!!
We won Windsward on Mag Mell when colorblind left during a downtime…
the downtime was scheduled for the siege time but they didn’t do downtime until immediately after the windsward war had ended…

^^^^ exactly
And that’s yet another war cancelled due to unannounced downtime. Thanks AGS
RIPPPPPP no answer from anyone and the war ended at the start. Hours of time wasted. Maybe fix this mechanic cause this is just silly.

Imagine pushing for a company and dont get slotted for a war.
Huh? Don’t think you read to OP correct lol
I get your frustration, I’ve always been of the mindset propose solutions not problems. I’ve created a thread to discuss potential updates to the territory pushing system which would alleviate pushing fatigue and promote open world PVP more. I think if we have more people coming out and speaking on how things should be changed hopefully they will take it into consideration.
Yea I noticed that too. Ironically EU is now the major playerbase based on highest concurrent players and peak population.
Infuence pushes are just stupid. Already sent idea to devs via game, taht we should use forts as a way to force open world pvp. So forts after capture would lock for 1-2h and when on lock they do generate infuence for owning faction. It would:
- bring some open world pvp
- make infuence pushes shorter
