Title: Narra Test Siege
Post by: Punisher on October 06, 2011, 04:55:37 pm
We'll be having another city siege this evening at 19:00 GMT (4 hours from now), with the main purpose of testing one of the new maps from the City Improvement project http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,10500.0.html. Narra was chosen for this test.

The secondary objectives of the siege will be:
-testing catapults with the new walls
-testing the AI buying script and the gold amount
-testing the XP gained from the battle

Everybody can apply, however I'd like to have it as close as possible to a real battle so experienced players will have priority. Please sign up only if you are sure you can make it, in order to properly test the map we need a real battle so a full roster is needed. We will do a roster check on TS 20 min before the battle, if you are not there you might be removed.

Attackers will be lead by Ramses, TS3 server for attackers: 62.104.20.250:10027 (Nditions) - Click to join (http://www.teamspeak-einstieg.de/invite/62.104.20.250/?port=10027)

If it is the At fifteen, I had the will to  learn ; at thirty, I could stand ; at forty, I had no  doubts ; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding ;  at sixty, my ears were opened ; at seventy, I could  do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the  square.. Twice now.

Apllied :)

A ban of wookie would kill the mod, again.

Sounds good.

As Punisher mentioned, i'll be leading the attackers on this one. I pledge people to be on the TS server 30 min. before for strategy and briefing. Roster check at 20 min. before the fight.

NOTICE: WE'LL BE USING THE NDITIONS TS FOR THIS BATTLE! We have a channel there called "Strategus test battles"

Is there a roster, or just show up on TS?
Title: Re: Narra Test Siege
Post by: Bjarky on October 06, 2011, 07:26:11 pm
for defenders: look before the battle if u got hired, the ai is hiring i guess.
attackers: apply and show up on fallen ts if u want to get hired.

Here's hoping we don't uh...well crash again.

That would have been an awesome battle last time. BLACK PLATED DEFENDERS! :evil:

No, TS server is just for attackers, defenders will be accepted automatically by the same system used in a normal AI siege.

There is a preliminary roster for attackers, however there will be a roster check on TS 20 minutes before the battle, if you are not there you will most likely be removed.

Fallen/HRE TS is down, we'll be using Nditions instead 62.104.20.250:10027. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Signed up - level 30 archer for who ever hires me.

When is this fight exactly? 1 hour 20 min? I think my time may be messed.
Title: Re: Narra Test Siege
Post by: Punisher on October 06, 2011, 08:06:18 pm
Starts in exactly 57 minutes from the time of this post. You should be on TS in about 20 minutes if you are fighting for attackers.

Roster check in 5 minutes, get on TS 62.104.20.250:10027 (Nditions) - Click to join (http://www.teamspeak-einstieg.de/invite/62.104.20.250/?port=10027) or you will be kicked. There will probably be plenty of slots left so even if you were not signed in the initial wave, you can get in if you come to TS.

Great battle guys.

A pity that the ending came in that weirdy way ... attackers not being able to spawn with more than 1000 tickets while defenders were beaten.

Also the broken wall model didn't work that well, but in general, the experience was ok, just need a bit of tweaking.

Epic city, nice battle :D . Add timer on a right corner, so player will know exactly how much time left till attackers retreat.

I don't know, I feel that is something the commanders should know, but not the players. Obviously as an AI town there would be no possible way of knowing.

We woulda won a lot quicker if that flag in the tower would go down. It was either glitched in the tower or there was so much shit on the ground it was blocking it.
Title: Re: Narra Test Siege
Post by: Jacko on October 07, 2011, 12:40:21 am
SeQuel: Didn't you attack? Cause you know, you guys lost  :lol:. We still had lots of flags left up in the keep as well.
Heh, bugged walls sure, but they still worked, kind of,  and we got to try most things out. I had fun, I believe most people had as well. A good start overall.

And people treat it like a battle server with infinite lives.

More like a siege that people hate so much. Hell, we could of EASILY bleed you if we fell back tot he keep instead of playing battle.
Defence was negative in K/D. So much like watching a pack of lemmings.

Post by: Oberyn on October 07, 2011, 02:35:26 am
Partly why I didn't even try to show up this time. The last time I had an outdated version of the game so I was all buggy anyways, but what really annoyed me was the total lack of teamwork or coordination. To be expected really, but I don't think it's as fun as a proper siege would be. These tests seem to be on the fly though, and to test certain new features, not general Strat gameplay.

Lighten up Francis, it was a fun battle to test out new strategus mechanics. If the defenders had a commander and Strategus was back, yeah maybe people would have fought a little better. But come on.

btw leshma, dont fuck with the catapults next time. You threw off our aim twice by fucking with the block.
Title: Re: Narra Test Siege
Post by: Leshma on October 07, 2011, 12:41:55 pm
Don't be an asshole, I touched the catapult just once...

Vashe was the guy who was messing with them rest of the time.

Edit: And that one time when I was near the catapult I moved the block by mistake, it wasn't intentional.

I really enjoyed the test siege.

Then i thought, why don't we do this every week? And made a post about it on the suggestions forum: http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,17723.0.html

I had a weird bug where the siege equipment wasn't looking right and the ladders didn't seem to exist, and all the spawn points were flying carpets instead of flags.

(click to show/hide)

But then again I don't have Kazak Equipment either so maybe I missed a hotfix?

Might be the other way around. You dl'ed the full install and THEN applied the hotfix for the old version. Saw a thread with another guy who did it.
