Title: [Strategus] sleep window
Post by: Chagan_Arslan on September 06, 2012, 06:04:01 pm
Dont know if it was suggested before but how about increasing "sleep window" from 8 hours to 16 hours ? It prevents battles during the time you sleep and are at work/school. Would love to see that as i think the majority of the people would like to have battles they can attend to. Weekends could be like they are now.

Thoughts ?

Am I missing something or did you just suggest the Night Time feature?

He is suggesting that you can increase ur night time till 16 hours max.
Would be nice for some people, for example me, I have 7 hours of sleepin, 8 hours school and 1-4 hours homework per day, would be nice if I could enlarge my night time to be less vulnerable due to absence.

Ahh, I see now. Derp by me.

The problem with having 16 hours of sleep time is that you then have 2/3 of the day as safe time and it makes it impossibru for NA to attack EU on a decent time and vice versa.

Ehm, that's why Strategus is meant to be rather a competetive play mode for crpg than a casual one. ;)

There should definitely only be battles from at minimum 14:00 (2pm) and forward, IMO even later (e.g. from 16:00 (4pm) and up to midnight or 1 hour after maximum).

It would be OK to have it as it is now if people were actually hosting battles of any importance during the early/late hours, but no one does, and everyone who does is basically abusing the system to avoid playing the game - or at least minimize the amount of opponents for the battle, which shouldn't be the function nor desired in terms of game-design.

The GKs are submitting to Werfrieds mercy and serving under his lordship!
But yeah, 16 hours nighttime would make a lot more sense.

Not really. I can't attack a from NA on mondey-thursday since it would be in his primetime only, meaning he can run all over the EU map with only a small chacne of being attacked. Same thing on the other way. This would be too much protection.

I could also run around on EU with nightime set from 12:00 to 4:00. Who would attack me then when they will barely have people show up and no show = defender wins. Awesome protection for caravans.

But I understand why you would want 16 hours no fighting and 8 hours of (potential) fighting. I would suggest instead making a 8 hours of always fighting (prime time), that changes depending on if it's on the NA server or EU server.
