Any progress on new strategus?

[arowaine]

The fun part of having strat is it mix up Eu and Na player together. So whoever say split them off! you just afraid by losing against someone on a Na ping that all

I have to agree with them though Arrowaine. Getting attacked at 2 PM (EST) is no fun when you have a job If the game is about battles, I'd like to be able to actually participate in them.

The only problem with this is even if you do a NA/EU split people will still probably do very early/late battles to win. You would almost need a time window to ensure it doesn't happen. Take Darkfall for example, Server up sieges were almost the norm because people take their internet castles too seriously.

new patch allows you to define a timespan of 8h per day of no-attack. getting attacked during that time means the game is scheduled to the end of the 8h span.

we'll have to see how it works out.

Hell, good idea, but does attacker should be able to see timespan of whom he wants to attack?
Otherwise, once the game is sheduled to the end of 8h span, attacker could find himself in a bad timespan for him.

And i don't know how clan would organize about a global timespan (looking forward for a complete mess on unorganized clan).

If they split NA / EU, Id hope it would be 2 continents, so that there was a clear definition between them and not some weird timezone line.

For me its not about ping, I have to agree with others out there that its about times of battles....if something important happens at 2pm i cant be in the battle and thats the best part of strategus so that would bum me out.  sucks having to work 9-5, i know ;)

Nice. As long as the attacker has some view of when that timeslot is set for that person.

[chadz]

yeah, that will be visible upon attacking.

Cool...thanks for putting that in. It will help a lot I think

wait a minute... is this a quick way of delaying the split ?

It's probably a temporary solution until a proper split is made in the new strat. I doubt they will do a complete split now. It would delay new strat even further. May as well just incorporate it into the new one and keep working on that.

[Braeden]

I'm pretty sure the window thing is a permanent thing.  Nights are one thing, but being able to not be attacked during work hours is priceless.

[sWalker]

The sWalker is confused by this "time of no attacking thing; set on computer...huh?  what's that"...but the sWalker thinks chadz has had a great idea since now the sWalker can have a free 8 hour beer time and still get to fight across the great ocean.

[Gheritarish le Loki]

So only news about splitt/NA and time of attack....

Plz How works Raid ?

[Ujin]

I still think the map could've been at least 10-20   % bigger.
