Title: Question for the community
Post by: Balikar on October 01, 2014, 09:52:31 am
Would you prefer to have battles in the early morning, before daylight... or during the workday?  I realize the goal is always to have them at prime time, but when attacking caravans, that's not possible.  We take what we can get.  I'd like to adjust my night time settings to help my community get battles at the most 'decent' of off time battles.   At first, I thought middle of the night battles would be best, but after tonight's turn out... I'm not so certain.  So I figured I'd pose that question to the community.

Personally, a battle start between 7pm-1AM est is target, everything else blows .

I've said this before and I'm saying it right now once this sentence has been adequately finished which I guess is now.

All battles for every week should queue up to happen only in prime time and have it be like 14 hour blocks on the weekend. It just fucks everyone around and kills the fun even more. How many times have you checked strat at some stupid time and seen a great target in striking distance but you know the battle time will just be fucked.

It should be out of our control completely. Depending on what side of the border we are on we just get those times.

I'm right and anyone that disagrees is a poo poo head.

Totally agree. Start it at 7 PM.  Next battle is at 8, 9, 10, 11, reverts to 6 if the queue is truly filled, then 12... I don't know.  Something needs to be done.

 And Anders, that's an obvious statement.   It simply doesn't work for striking caravans though.  Only once have I been able to sit on top of the trader and wait till prime time.  I noticed he wasn't moving, moved up to him to follow, and then launched at 5 PM EST.  All the while he could have had reinforcements moving up to me to ruin the attack.

Yeah me too, does it matter when all the community signs up for one side though?

But for the last 2 or 3 weekends there has been no battles on NA3, they all happen on week days ATM  :idea:

Been 10x amount of battles every week day in neck beard hours compared to prime time week ends (been non event)

Based on that fact, this topic is retarded  :rolleyes:

Horde stopped the offensive due to lack of Merc support. This is the strat that remains when the largest factions refuse to fight one another.

I have to say it was a lot like that last strat v's FCC. It was hard to get a good roster vs FCC especially towards the end.

you're right, the fact that no one wants to sign up for you is definitely not due to the massive shit flinging on the forums by teutonics and kesh. its the mod's fault of course

I'm still a little angry that I lost my whole army attacking a caravan on a Sunday afternoon. 5 against 6.  Sort of hard to kill 150 ticks in half an hour with those numbers.

Like I said a million fucking years ago. We need better incentives for the randoms and none strat crazy players to join in.

7.5k c-rpg gold for participating in a battle and 100k xp. Then have xp ticks on top of that.

If we have shit like that happening far more people will jump into battles. Even just 200 vs 200 battles will get a lot more people involved.

FUCKING DO EEET!!!
