That’s not what I said. Reread what I said. lol
You do relize DG are all gearing alt accounts on Dorito and plan on owning not just Camelot big 3 but Doritos big 3 aswell. This is happening right now and has been confirmed they are transfering BIS items over as we speak. Letting one company Own the entire westcoast region setup is horrible for the game health…
Let them come. We’ll work together and we’ll beat them.
There are thousands of players between those servers, and plenty of gold capped companies with BIS gear and good war skills already existing in both places.
If we don’t beat them, I won’t be here crying to the devs asking them to prevent people from fighting in wars. I’ll just work harder.
Having people fight wars vs B teams isnt going to improve the game health either.
You don’t learn if you don’t fight people who are better than you.

I don’t like Shell companies either, but that is just a symptom of a bigger problem. People like New World’s war activity and want to do it as much as possible. That means the activity needs to be restructured so that more people can participate.

This is part of the extremely toxic mentality of territory / war ownership. You want to lock out the playerbase from end game content because you think no one else deserves to play because they aren’t at your level. There is no match making system and the system was designed to spread out territory ownership. Smaller / newer companies have no chance at REAL practice if all they are doing is getting fort camped against the big guys who do multiple wars a day with the same / similar army. EF / WW and BW are a sign of the “top” guys, as it should be. Let it stay like that, its fine. You can stroke your epeen with the big territories. Let the smaller and less inexperienced companies work their way up the ladder by getting good practice against other armies in a similar situation. That will help build up morale and their strats.
Shell companies exploit the system by splitting war timers so companies can take hold of an entire server and all of its wealth.
I’m part of a company that has owned the top territories and we always ensured server health because that was our goal. We chose not to get greedy. But with all the merges, all the top companies have been rammed into a few servers and they are taking down server maps.
You can disagree all you want, but your ideology is what continues to kill the game and soon it will be just the few toxic companies remaining playing the game until they quit too and wonder wtf happened.
Think your company is SO good? Own 2-3 territories with one company, and lets see how you fair. This would actually encourage you to defend influence pushes instead of just letting people push so you can have a free war.

You keep saying “lock people out of content” when what you mean is “lock people out of winning wars because they aren’t good enough to beat the A team”
They are not synonymous.
You and everyone else get to experience the content of wars. You aren’t locked out of them so stop pretending you are.
My ideology is that everyone should earn what they get in a sandbox game and that we should all have the same ability to engage in content and that nobody should get an easy mode.
You are proposing that just because someone owns 2 territories they should be locked out of defending half of their stuff every time 2 different defense wars pop at the same time. You admitted you want them to have to play their B squad so some lowbies have a chance at winning when they could not have won otherwise.
What you think is fairness is the exact opposite because you don’t care about effects on anyone but you. You’ve left that out of your calculations so you don’t seem to get it.
You are the one trying to lock people out of content here, not me.
Its 50 people circumventing mechanics to control a whole map. This crap obviously isn’t intended. You might as well say its ok to use invulnerability exploits, duped gold, duped gear, macros, stat point exploits. Its all the same. An exploit.
There are top 1% players for a reason. Its because not everyone is that skilled. One company owning an entire server is bad for the game. Wake up and see that. You can cry go beat them all you want. Thats like asking football fans to get together and go beat an NFL team.
If you don’t see how this is bad for the game after many servers being ruined already and all the people that have left because of it then I don’t know what to tell you. Carry on and bury your head in the sand when eventually every server will evaporate to only the top 1% of the players and the game shuts down.

ur suggestion would stop wars ur expecting others to do the work for you and be limited to 1 war a day your the one being selfish get off your tush and start running start a war and you control whos in it dont exect others to do it for you or to give up the wars they have to run a 1000 quests for and pay 15k to host to be held out of there own wars lol and opr has been out for mounths on end server health has to do with everyone being able to play the game there own way not the way others tell them even more so to do with there own towns your comments are selfish and stupid your littarly saying * doing the work for me pay for it and be locked out* wars dont exist without people acctualy doing the work and the people who do the work ussaly wanna be in those wars end of story
Make an alt on a different server and war log.
Two wars a day. One war on each server.
I know someone who has four lv 60’s and mercenaries for people on different servers.
ur still expecting people to do it for you then put you in there wars isnt gonna happen on a server till you work your gs and get your stuff up and get known your asking people to put there coin there time running to cap a town and trying to dictate there wars your littarly on a diffrent planet thats not how anything works anywhere in any world
I REPEAT it cost money and time to start a war you wanna say whos in your war start one or shut up
You’re upset that people play the market? It’s an open world player driven trading post. It’s part of the game. It’s also something you can do yourself through buy and sell orders. Don’t hate on people who are better equiped at understanding market trends.
I have been putting a lot of thought into this For reference I’m on Castle of steel And I do get slotted In wars on a regular basis So this would hurt the amount of wars I’m in
I think a 24 hour cooldown would be unnecessary To be honest the 3 hour cool down would essentially do the same thing considering siege windows
By doing a 3 hour cool down you’re forcing Allied companies to truly consider their siege windows It would allow for more slots And for us hardcore gamers It’s still possible to get 2 wars In A-day

i do think names should be attached if someone wants to make everyone pay more by buying out the market with town money and force our people to pay more, and i could do same thing its just a sleeze ball move and without names attached you cant hold repercusions and choose to not be around those kind of people… im 200 armorer, furny and archana its bs to think i couldnt i obv could its just sleezy and there should be names attached to give us choice
I think 24 hours is wayyyy too harsh.
Even a 1 hour CD on war would help this “problem” and give people a “window” to force a company to slot a “B” roster.
I buy out the market often, without company money. I collect up to gold cap, buy out the market of some items to relist, make a profit and then craft items looking for BiS gear. I’ve never been given gold or items from territory owners, even when we owned WW for 3 months.
I’ve managed to craft all my own gear, get all my own skills to 200, obtained all crafting/refining sets, and all trophies. I did that on my own.
I did it by using my skills with understanding markets. Yet, I’m sleezy for doing it? You do know that once an item is bought out it will return to normal market value within a out 24 hours. So it’s not like some huge con. People pay for convenience so they want their items now. That’s where easy buy and sell orders combined with crafting/refining makes tons of money.
What if the big companies you’re so concerned about stop buying for opposing factions? What if they decide they want to black list a player? You see only the pros and ignore the potential negatives.
im not worried about big companys owning areas i said that i just beleive names should be attached to the market i would`nt hold a hole company responible. id just think you are a peice of crap i also dont give a crap about your guild size i run a good size guild and next i dont give a dam weather people buy off the enemy or not but should be our choice.
Also iv never seen a game where 1 company could get everyone else in the game to do what they say, so who gives a poop if one large company didnt like ya…
however if someone for example buys all the green wood from a decent price and resets it higher that hurts the server and ya i understand its easy money but dosnt change without names being attached we cant say thats the peice of crap that did this.
p.s it dosnt take brains to buy something cheap and sell it higher they need names so we can stop inflantion. Plain and simple, if it didnt work having names on the ah, then everyother game wouldnt have done this exact thing, wow,swtor,aos,.scrolls,uo,ffXI, couple of names of games that all did this to prevent people like you, if it didnt work the big names wouldnt have used it with millions compared to maybe 10k accrossed the whole game…
I like this, on my selver midgard, we got one main company with 4 “shell” companies.
Seems abit unfair.

have to make it long enought to were 1 company cannot own the three biggest towns. 4 hours would be good
The problem is not war lockouts but settlement ownership.
Remove player influence from Settlements and a lot of issues, including this one, are solved.
Wars become more accessible to everyone.
