Solution to EU and NA hating each other for goofy battle times

[Tears of Destiny]

I think ToD is smart enough to know it wasnt his idea alone.

I am inclined to agree.

[Different]

Well, actually a little sidenote that others started with ideas and you collected all to one big would be nice

but meh, everyone that reads forums attentive knows that he collected the ideas and made a possible solution with his opinion

[Tears of Destiny]

I shall include a disclaimer just for Jambi.


EDIT done.

I have not the faintest idea who was first :/
cmp was the first on IRC but as for the first ever, I forgot.

Someone on TWC...

To be honest, splitting the communities would also solve the overcrowding problem.

The Goon masterrace would zerg the NA map into the ground

i dont see how this fixes it... there is absolutely nothing stopping eu clans running to the other half of the map and na clans doing the same. and if its just a line down the middle for where people spawn in randomly... the middle will be a cluster fuck at the start, but you can bet alliances that formed to protect NA or EU interests will still form and probably try to pick off any weaker factions of the opposite side. if all na had started in the east and all eu in the west of this strat... it would still look EXACTLY the same.

The difference is that travelling across the border means you have to fight on enemy servers, no matter the attacker/defender.

Banning all of NA would be so much easier

Then Europeans would be divided and not like one another.

You sensing the irony?

If the distance between NA and EU halves of the map would be significant, there would be another difference called logistics issues. Like in the old times of New World conquest, it took ages to bring reinforcements from Europe to America, same thing will happen with taking troops from EU side to NA side. I like it.

This is not the best of ideas and heres why...

it does nothing to solve the actualy issue, just makes it somewhat less common by putting ppl on the other side of  the map. But soon enough, the issue will be back.


Problem isnt in having a disadvantage, its that battles of ~ping 200 v 50 are NOT FUN, their are tedious, unchallanging (no chance in melee) etc. etc.

And in addition, little is gained by having a single strategus, because there are plenty of players (so having more isnt better, its same) AND there is no competition between NA and EU clans cause they simply dont know eachother.

Bottom line: Double the servers, twice the fun

In real life, theres an ocean keeping the two continents from each other. What the devs are trying to do here, is use up all their resources to build a bridge between them so people can meet up at the middle and get their cookies. Why not just give them a cookie house on each side of the world?
