Incoming item bombing by Badplayer

[Rikthor]

Yeah completely offtopic but lets slow the roles here a bit, Tutoo defeated Shogunate by himself? Really bro? I guess I just imagined trolling them with Berenger relentlessly.

This sounds like a miscalculation in the speed formulas. With 560k crates and that few troops and horses he had in comparison, you shouldn't be able to move an inch anymore.

No.  Murder was moving 5x faster than badplayer.  Its just he cant seem to be attacked, tried 40 minutes of repeatedly being directly on top of him.  Had same issue with rohy twice before where we even had the guy run ahead to his destination and then come back head on toward him and it would not register attack.  These are the only people we have ever had this overwhelming problem of being impossible to register attack against and they are all from the same clan - kind of suspicious.  Would love for them to reveal how they are doing it so it can be fixed rather than abusing it until some developer figures it out and fixes it.  Kind of surprised shik isn't letting chadz know about the issue, but then again its to his clan's advantage so I guess that takes first fiddle to his admin duties.

And not every faction member is ative 24/7 anders, all someone has to do is wait ina  fief until a trader passes thena tatck them at an hour they might be asleep and they can catch them by quickmarching.  They lose only 1/3rd the troops of the other guy using minimum to attack and then their allies have 24 hours to show up and finish the job.  You can't reinforce him even because all the troops will suffer from being unable to access equipment.  Very useful against carvans and shiny armies to rob or nullify them.

It comes down to what is the effect - you are intentionally trying to make sure the enemy will not be able to access their inventory in the next fight they do after yours by abusing a faulty game mechanic - item bombing is listed as bannable offense.  Since the old method is unavailbale unless you transfer to fiefs, this is the only way to do it to people in the field.

When dbrookz doesn't get attacked he is the god of juking, when hero party doesn't get attacked they are cheating/exploiting.

?? he avoided them where they never got within 100 meters of him.  he didnt have them on top of him for 40 minutes within 0 meters and being unable to be attacked - strategus issue.  I know you are biased to favor them right now but its a real issue.

So is hero party to blame for all strategus related issues? Or is it strategus issues=exploiting cheating.

lol im asking it to get fixed - hence the thread and also stop them from item bombing which is under their control and stop nighttime setting abuse - also under their control.  And the fishy aspect is that its only ever  happened 3 times - so seems rare issue, but all 3 times have been agaisnt a hero_party member we attacked in this war - so yeah it sounds like they found a way to make it happen on command.  Not the first time a clan knew of a glitch and continued to make uee of it until developers finally became aware of it.

i mean come on egan - doesn't that seem the least bit suspicous to you as much as you might like hero_party?  We have posted multiple times showing pictures of it happening, its not some random accusation - its happening only in this war and only against hero_party members.

Here is my response to you Smooth, in song form.

If you feel better
Telling me I'm cruel
Saying I'm unfeeling
I don't mind
If it's necessary
If it helps you out
Crying that I'm heartless
It's alright
Well I'm sorry
To cause you so much pain
But it occurs to me
You're acting like a ten year old
So glad you're still in touch
With your inner child
All the same what can you really hope
To gain from complaining
I could apologize for all the things
I've never done
But how much fun would that be
So no I won't do that
But if you feel better
Telling me I'm cruel
Saying I'm unfeeling
I don't mind
If it's necessary
If it helps you out
Crying that I'm heartless
It's alright
Won't make me sorry
'Cause Im cruel
Won't hurt my feelings
'Cause I dont have any
Wont break my heart
'Cause its not there to break
If you feel better
My mistake
I dont need to hear
You love me
When it's clear
Im on your mind
All these thoughts
You're thinking of me
How have I been so
Unkind
But oh I see
Its been a losing battle all along
So if you feel better
Go ahead
And say Im wrong

-edit: I meant to put this in smooths post, got confused and didn't know where I was. This is why weed is bad, kids.

Nah they are in hero party they just had the faction bug that shows them in a different faction.

Kesh and Idle, how the hell did you guys get muted?


Also, on topic; doesn't it suck to know you should have been able to attack someone, but they just evade you? Oh wait, happened to us with dBrookz even though both armies were perfectly capable of stopping him and said 0.01 hours to him for like 20 minutes straight. It's a shitty bug.


As for item-bombing, it's kind of funny in a way, but logically doesn't make sense. 4,000,000 stones? Jesus, you could build a mini pyramid.

Muted because of this thread mostly, I'd wager.

From what I understand, you guys were never completely on top of dbrookz.

This wouldn't be a problem if you had the option to dump gear wherever you are in strategus...

You should be able to say "actually, I don't want those 1 million rocks, I'm going to just leave them".  Fucking retarded as hell that you have to carry them back to a fief before you can rid yourself of unnecessary equipment you win from a battle.

Just another problem that won't be fixed in strategus, that has an easy solution.

[MURDERTRON]

The easiest way to fix the most extreme cases is to round any cost of anything that is a fraction of a gold piece up to 1.  It will, however, not prevent actual item bombing fiefs.
