Title: Retreat greatly increases equipment numbers?
Post by: Darkkarma on September 02, 2011, 01:57:51 am
Not sure if this has been reported yet, but supposedly once a faction retreats, the winning side's remaining gear is multiplied by a ridiculous amount? I've heard reports of this happening to LLJK and more recently BRD. I haven't seen this first hand but i've heard many different reports of it in vents and teamspeaks and I was unable to find any posts about it thus far.

From what I know, that is correct. It's only if you retreat, not if you lose the battle regularly.

Who would be so cowardly as to retreat???

Who would feel so guilty as to deflect a legitimate question???


In all seriousness though, does anyone know if this bug only works if and when attackers retreat?

Our peep have been fighting non stop today. If this is true I am sure it would be reported when they have time to breath. The main issue is how would people know if its a bug or that the people who ran brought a crazy amount of gear that was lost on a loss.

Now for the real question... Why retreat with 200 men?

Why lose the troops and gear if you don't have to and could allocate them in the next battle? Also, I think the reports were that only the already existing gear from before the battle started as multiplied. I could be wrong though.

The sWalker would be very disappointed if any xWalkers...ever...ever...retreated from a glorious death on the battlefield.

Happened at LLJK vs OCF when OCF ran away from us. We entered the fight with about 950 rouncies and heavy lances, left with 3,500 rouncies and 4k heavy lances? I doubt their 1,000 man army came with 2,500 rouncies. Also heard it happened at Yruma, but as Bale said, FCC fought 7(including LLJK vs OCF, for the ones that could show) battles yesterday, and might've made a formal report later.

Yeah, now that I actually had a break from all this fighting.  It looks like Yruma castle got a bunch of equipment.  We thought originally the enemy just had brought all that equipment and when they retreat you get all they started with.  But it looks like it has to be more an army of 6K would carry.  Too bad DRZ keeps attacking it before we can get it out. :(, though we keep bleeding them for it every time we win.

Kind of curious when this will actually be fixed and if there will be a rollback (odds are rolling back to before the war started, DRZ and Chaos might rethink their attack with how disasterous it has been so far  :wink:

If losing two villages, having your castle on lock and being pushed against the wall is your idea of a disaster, then i'm not sure what to tell ya.

In any case, the bug has been reported and id' rather not see Kesh do what he does best after seeing how bug reports with the mercs turned to spam threads.
