Spawn time system

Doesn't work guys you'll have to re-think it.

It completely fucked the battle that just happened. We were down people and the number advantage the offence had completely crushed us because the spawn time rapidly accelerated out to 40+ seconds per spawn.

The result was the attackers hit in waves and we the defenders eventually just get overwhelmed.

It's not working as intended.

I had to leave 1 minute before the battle to go help a buddy out. Figured I'd have enough time to get back before it was over, and I did.. but just barely. Pretty lame system, I foresee many assaults in quick succession as people rush to take advantage of it.

Just revert it entirely to what it was before, prioritizing player respawns based on performance.  Defenders were unable to exert enough manpower to hold their spawns within 10 minutes of the battle, not even 100-150 tickets went before their village was untenable.

Honestly dont get how the devs could think this was a good idea.

I see how they thought it would work, but if you keep adding seconds to the timer obviously it's gonna be easy as fuck to cap flags.

I still think the spawning on each flag is silly as well, Is it possible to look into that while your at it, Could it not be set as a radius to the flag its self, Say 10-15m.. that way the defenders would have a chance to fight, rather than be born into a circle jerk of overhead "Get as many kills as possible" love fest on top of the remanding flag/s. :p

hehe, well the flagcap change now wont help either, defenders of flag will have an even harder time now keeping the flags up  :P
i eat those words, last change really rebalanced alot of things, good to see, the 4s to 1s and ranged reset did help alot too.

Played my first siege with the new spawn change. It was AWESOME. Having walls+ decent gear made the attackers have to REALLY change tactics. Unfortunately for grays, they changed WAY to slow.

It then became a literally slaughter to the man.

Defence killed 2k to their 1.3k lost. Very very good for defence. This means that Offense will have to  play much more conservatively.

They bringed mighty mauls to defenders on the first waves, that was a very bad idea  :twisted:

That too.

They tried besieging it like the old way. It didn't work. They switched to catapults. Considering their spawn disadvantage, they still killed 1.3k.

Sounds great I really want to see it in action.

TBH I'm really glad they are fooling around with it because strat battles really had just become a game of numbers, and that's about all. So good to see that perhaps tactics can be rewarded... I should change that to USED.
