What are the XP/Fun battles for?

Sure, strat is ending Sunday, let's have some fun/XP battles, this is a brillant idea while new year's coming.

I'm participating battles from yesterday, but my teammates or opponents are constantly breaking siege equipments/spawn raping/taking flags. What kind of a XP or fun battle these are. Just annoying and raging.

Use your brains and fix this behaviors, and let's get optimum XP from all battles.
So the wind won't blow it all all away.

A few guys want kills, a few guys behave like assholes and a few guys are just retarded,
so you can't expect that they listen to xp-battle-orders.

Coming from someone who poll bans the enemy commander because of butthurt. Not to mention your side in the last battle broke your own forward spawn before we could get the people who were not on TS to stop spawn raping. and you also had players wasting time and lives building sky ladders and it seems 4-5 leechers with no kills :D

You forgot to mention leechers.

The way I see it, punishment for breaking the rules in strategus is too light. majority of the time people receive no punishment and just a verbal warning... then about 80-90% of the time when action is taken against a player breaking the rules, it is just a simple kick. In my opinion punishment is so light that many don't care about repercussion to breaking the rules. If it was up to me I would say 12 hour bans should be the punishment for first offences. Then maybe people would get the fear in them and think twice about breaking rules.

I believe i have highlighted EU's problem with trying to have fun battles, the word 'Optimum XP' is why Druz battles struggled to get a roster and people got instantly bored of the EU 'fun' battles.

'Optimum XP'... That's so EU xD NA arb battles gave a fuckton of exp, but they were actually fun! Whereas EU 'fun' battles are just like the regular battles but with even more rules.

I joined a EU xp battle couple of nights ago and people wouldn't listen and also had to be retards about it too, so we got our spawn camped and they set their spawns to different Foward Spawns.

I think there should be an option to choose battle leader from the fighting factions. This leader should be able to "flag" users that misbehave. After 3 flags you get suspended (kicked/banned from server?) and lose all XP gained from that battle.

1) in one "fun/xp" battle i tried to make, allegitly against orders of the opposites teams commanders, we had been spawn raped, flag capped and the last survivor who could have put up our flags, was killed. The fight was over after a couple of minutes and potential shitload of XP lost for over 50 players.
I had "another" 4k fully equiped army ready, it will be still on me till ragnarok, because i couldnt be arsed anymore. Way to go fuck tards, who were responsible for that BS.

2) In another NA battle i was yesterday, it was agreed on that we wouldnt flag cap, spawn rape ... attackers build a sky ladder till above the defending castle, jumped of with horses and started flag capping, when then from the defenders the attacckers ladder construction were destroyed, the attacker were all like, "fucking EU retards destroying fun" ... kind of ironic. So Heskeytime, while you may suck up to NA for them being so much more fun, even in the last NA battles i had been, there were still the grudges active which had been cultivated for so long.

You cant just tell people to complettly change their modus operandi after over a year of fine tuned hate, flame and trolling. So from a pessimistic point of few, i sadly have to agree with Erasmus. Fuck Fun/XP battles, some braindead dipshits will allways try to fuck it up for all others.

@chadz
Instead either make by default only 10 months strat, that then with a known end date from the beginning, or at least give us 1 month heads up so we can burn our shit in better organized way or instead of keeping strat up, to see how all go crazy and apeshit, just shut it down from one day onto another.

Happy christmas

I will never forgive kinngrimm for approaching me and my donkey behind while we were defenseless, when on top of the skyladder. Obviously kinngrimm thought it was a fun idea to both kill me, my poor donkey and break the skyladder.

I wish you a painful death kinngrimm, in real life.

Well maybe I exaggerated the rp a bit...

I wish you will not be able to find a toilet paper when you needed it the most, then.

I have to agree with Heskey, NA XP battles are indeed fun. Even with 130 ping average. EU XP battles on the other hand are not fun. Druzhina give great XP (witnessed 160k ticks once) but those are full plate battle which is kinda boring. Battles organized by other EU clans give poor XP and are not fun, with few exceptions.

Another thing that makes strat battles not fun in general is awful lag. I had a feeling my PC is to blame but on EU1 with same amount of players (100) game runs quite smooth and there are no issues with game feeling less responsive. Dunno whats the issue, but playing strat feels completely different than playing on EU1/EU2.
