Strategus item&gold reset - new game variables

Feel free to offer a suitable alternative within 2 days

I can't see one, tbh

+1 Total Wipe

or if you have some other major change soon to come(not more then 2 weeks), like separating NA/EU, or something else like that.
Then i would suggest, correct the bug and let it go as it is now(no wipe at all), till you have the next major change ready.

Then may be (if it's beta test) we do not need to every time sit down on the back and gater the troops for the months?
May be to test some other stages\sides of the game instead a gathering troops spending months to collect them?
Just give some amount troops to each, just random assign a fiefs and see other sides of game.
Cos 99% of Stragegus is waiting and doing nothing (except forum\diplomatic games).
And if it's ok for final version, so for the beta-test it's not correct.

For beta test beta tester have Use Cases to test.

For example  - if dev's need to "test battles" - then why just not create battles and just allow players
to apply and see.
Or just gift 10.000-100.000 troops to each factions and see a battles. Every day. Many battles.
So much results for testing and analyzing.
Why not to do this?

Right now we testing only one thing - how to play Strategus essentially not playing Strategus (in fact).
We found many other things to do while "playing" Strategus. Thx the God ^) - there is cRPG and other games.

One more time - testing not means to play full game from the start to the end. Full. Long.
Many many times from the start to the end. Even if first half of the game is already tested - you need to play it again and again.
Testing means - test needed\necessary functionality. Need to test battles - let's test battles - give free troops or create battles.
Need to test caravans - give free caravans to us and we will test it very well.
Etc

I don't understand why many peoples must spend real life to gain a things (like gold\troops\etc) and test them, what can be taken in 1 minute by dev's decision.
Why???

...

definitly this + 10000000

this would be so much fun to see, how random players have to interact with their claims, clans spread out all over the map,
and perhaps this then helps that finally clans see it is not about their claims in the last strat reset, that they can survive anywhere as long they stick together.

I didn't realize Union were among the losers. Live and learn.

We are reading different topics i think.

YOU are my beta testers! If you want a semi finished project, wait till you see a strategus link in your crpg page. This round serves it purpose perfectly, lots of bugs got found that a closed beta could never have.

Sorry, but it's not my fault you found the link to strategus beta in some topic that stated that its a very early version and ignored that statement.

Why de hell do you tell me to take it down, when all you have to do is not fucking open the page if it bothers you. What a self entitled snob....

The process doesn't feel like testing.
We spent weeks to test a castle siege, we gonna spend few weeks more to experience a city siege ...
If it is about testing , we could simulate battles like 3ABP suggested.
The thing you are doing is like giving free ice-cream to childeren and when they get poisoned and died telling judge on court "But i gave them those for free ! They could ignore me and deny my free ice-cream offer !"
We , nerds are childeren , you are the evil ice-cream guy,ice-cream is strategus in this case.
I am not telling you what to do .You asked for suggestions, i suggested my opinions as you wanted .Waiting lots of factions to produce troops / gold to simulate battles and reveal bugs is waste of time indeed,open strat for your "CHOSEN" beta testers and simulate every damn possible buggy situation  , after you think it is clear release it to community.It sounds more positive then current situation imo.

Or really - wipe all then (fiefs\armies too).

Am i the only one who realizes that on x1 you do not get any strat gold from cRPG?

Full wipe! Tear it all down!

If you have the DateBase transactions logs (transaction sequence) - all those buggy equipment can be easy founded and deleted.
Manually, yes. But for last 1-2 weeks there were not more than 50-100 really big battles, which could really affect on equipment bug benefits.

Or even easier way (worser, but much easier) - just remove all equipment gained in last 2 weeks from the battles.

1 SQL query to find a transactions (buggy equipment transactions) that did after the battles (by attackers\defenders UID and a battle time).
1 more to find a list and quantity of equipment  before battle and after battle(--\\--)
1 more to fix it (just update a "current" list and quantity of equipment to the "before battle" state minus "loosing tickets in the battle").
And all.

Or really - wipe all then (fiefs\armies too).

Same posts, both of them include "wipe" word so its same...I wonder if thats how you read and understand books,newspapers etc also...

lol there will be lots of cudgel vs pitchfork battles next weeks...

Yeah, but on x2, you will win the entire crpg gold, not only 1/5 or 1/10 (didn't remember exact number).


Imo a total wipe is always better than a partial wipe, but Imo the best solution is just to keep all as it is.

There was plenty of bugs, exploits and even hack, we never did a rollback or a wipe, why now?


Edit :"we never did a rollback or a wipe" in strat v2

[PointBlank9]

With a reset, the people in the Drz vs fcc war just won't want to go on after all we just did, I know I won't want to. Either completely wipe, Or I guess people who don't want to go on, just stop playing until a new version of strat comes.

From the sounds of how it works it will be 1 gold at x2, 2 gold a ticka t x3, 3 gold at x4, adn 4 gold at x5.  Probably changing gold production on strategus too, so essentially it gold will become very very scarce, but you may be able to actually manufacture equipment in fiefs now.  Full wipe would make some sense, especially for the smaller landless clans.

Naw why don't you just wipe the gold/equip from everyone who HAS a fief? The fiefless factions keep everything they have.  Want to turn strat into a random warbling, easist way.

[Thovex]

Both is fine, full wipe or 'half' wipe, we all knew it was coming soon any way.

[Thucydides]

full wipe please, My clan has been stockpiling gold  because we are landless and no access to troops. We were hoping to use the gold at a later date to buy a fief or more troops. Now the wipe would fuck us over disporportionally compared to the other factions, so please full wipe.
