Huh ermm that's what difference between white and maintenance box

 

[yewhuiyuan]

Maintainence is DV will hold all the gate?

Maintainence is DV will hold all the gate?

White is regular protected time, and maintanance is the time where servers might be absent once a week, if no update is deployed otherwise.

#14 Endgame Part 3 (Sites Gameplay)

Ok we are ready test mutliple conflict phases for the weekend. We tried to find times to avoid time zone overlaps and reduce times to far away from the usual player online time. Conflict Phases (Server Time) 16:00 2 hours 20:00 2 hours Here is an visualizaion of the conflict phase time slots...

Hopefully its more clear now

 

[DarkMyth.]

That was a good feedback round! Thx

The chance DV takes towers depend on on how many cycles (days) the clan holds the building. The longer the building is held the higher the chance DV takes it. Sure this mechanic also correlates with the yield as it can only be updraded once per cycle. This is an element we can fine tweak later on if that is an issue.



Conflict should be in sync with all buildings on a server to have a proper gamemode where everyone prepares for. Core mechanic that ties everything together in the concept. Many elements would not work anymore if we stray away from it.


Ok here is the updated schedule for the weekend. Shorter conflict phases spread evenly around the day and one prime time conflict for 2 hours. Times also try to avoid to much overlap and stay away from usual maintenance and update time. (Even when maintenance mostly occur once per week)

Conflict Phases (Server Time)
1:00 1 hour
7:00 1 hour
11:00 1 hour
16:00 1 hour
20:00 2 hour

Is this better?

Edit: Updated the image for a more clear understanding and added conflict phases as text.

ain't no one having their beauty sleep anymore with this, can we just rollback the whole thing? it's getting messed up more and more with the further ideas you guys come up with

 

[yewhuiyuan]

Man dictated eu 1 now he wanna dictate the devs too . Fr obsessed and control freak huehuehue

Very hypocrite to say about not having sleep lmao.

How did you hold your gates before Endgame part 3?

we didn't sleep and with this idea we're literally going back to the same thing same goes to other servers, who's gonna wake up at 7am on eu servers to defend? where most are either going to their jobs or to schools? 1am conflict phase that's fine okay but 7 am? even 11 am it's where most of the players aren't even available and i'm not specifically talking about maps holders same goes to the enemies, they also got jobs schools, life whatever, the idea before this one was actually fine 2 conflict phases during the evening yeah okay but early mornings?

 

[yewhuiyuan]

See highway I told you about these eu 1 and am 1 lads have no touch grass life ... This prime example... They go to the extent to lose beauty sleep for this wee game...

You're not supposed to be in the game 24/7. That is your personal choice.

The beauty of this update is that if you lose your Site in the night, you regain your site in the next conflict phase including the fame.

Getting fame after acquiring the site was something not possible in the old state. That is the advantage of this update which it offer to the minority.

It promotes more activity. If you want fame or elections, then you come online daily and win your fame.

That's how the game were in 2012, constant actions if you wanted to win an elections.

Conflict Phases (Server Time)
16:00 2 hours
20:00 2 hours

Here is an visualizaion of the conflict phase time slots on UTC +1. (Asia and US might differ by one hour due daylight saving)
View attachment 47452

Note: The daily building medal production is split depeding on how many conflict phases per day are active. So that the total amount of fame remains the same as a single conflict phase.

Let us know what you think of this time schedule?

At least 5 hours difference between each phase would benefit more for servers with players from many regions. 21:00 server time for phase 2 for example

Your view is 1-sided.

You are a defender on Eu1.

Eu1 has been complaining about not having enough activity. I was reading that the activity dies down after the only Conflict phase.

Now that more conflict phase have been added, due to the feedback and requests of many (check page 1 of this thread, the main request was about putting more conflicts hours throughout the day), yet you're still saying it's not okay solely because you will lose your advantage.

In all honesty, the suprise factor is now restored.

Broski wants people to visit his server but he doesn't wanna be online for war

Brotherman wants fire but he also wants water at the same time

 

[Highway]

Lets stay constructive. Every feedback is valid and sadly there is not one solution that fits all. Best compromise is to be found
@yewhuiyuan please stop provoking ok?

Did you see the updated schedule?

Is this better?

This is a lot better. And this is what we have been requesting for 1 year now since you have unveiled the concept.

Alright, I didn't really get the point of this idea, since the way it is presented, there are more drawbacks than advantages.

And on my end, I didn't really like that because it's limiting the hours of gameplay, and restricting.

But this first line is very very convincing for players to adopt the new concept. At the moment, an attacker is fighting 24/7 with minimal fame taken when they finish their attack.

(You should put more emphasis on that, it's a good selling point)

Your proposed solutions partly solve that for the attacker, but the fact that there will be only 1 window of the takeover, means that it is still impossible for an attacker to gain much fame. Because Defender would outnumber attackers every 24 hour, to the point that attacker gives up very easily.

Here's the simple solution presented by @OrionZG



Having multiple attack windows is infinitely better than 1 attack window. It is not that restricting and as a player I actually love it. It will be like a burst of open attacks on every building in the game, the motivating factor being, the big amount of fame awaiting the ones who take the tower.


Here's the advantage if we go with this idea.

1. Huge amounts of rewards are being generated every 3 hours, so players will be more motivated to drain a tower.
2. The player activity would remain more or less the same since there's a constant fight going on and it's not as limiting or restrictive.
3. An attacker will keep attacking until the alliance (defender) is tired of defending. Their role would switch due to constant attacks, and the alliance would eventually break and become the new attackers. This will create an endless loop of new attackers and defenders every 3 hours.

There should be more than 2 takeover windows of 4 hours in 24 hours. The more takeover window, the less restrictive the gameplay.

I think that's a good middle ground between the people who find the 1-hour takeover phase too limiting and restricting and the people who say that 24 hours war is too long and less rewarding.

1 year ago, I wrote how having multiple burst of conflicts phase will benefit both attackers and defenders.

I also remember everyone asking for it. No doubt that defenders will have to come online to defend their holdings while attackers will attack whenever they want.

What's left is to see how it performs on live server.

¡Esa fue una buena ronda de comentarios! Gracias

La probabilidad de que DV tome torres depende de cuántos ciclos (días) el clan mantenga el edificio. Cuanto más tiempo se mantenga el edificio, mayores serán las posibilidades de que DV lo tome. Seguro que esta mecánica también se correlaciona con el rendimiento, ya que solo se puede actualizar una vez por ciclo. Este es un elemento que podemos modificar más adelante si eso es un problema.



El conflicto debe estar sincronizado con todos los edificios de un servidor para tener un modo de juego adecuado para el que todos se preparen. Mecánica central que une todo en el concepto. Muchos elementos ya no funcionarían si nos desviamos de él.


Ok aquí está el horario actualizado para el fin de semana. Las fases de conflicto más cortas se distribuyen uniformemente a lo largo del día y un conflicto en horario de máxima audiencia dura 2 horas. Los tiempos también intentan evitar demasiada superposición y mantenerse alejado del mantenimiento habitual y el tiempo de actualización. (Incluso cuando el mantenimiento se realiza principalmente una vez por semana)

Fases del conflicto (hora del servidor)
1:00 1 hora
7:00 1 hora
11:00 1 hora
16:00 1 hora
20:00 2 horas

yo creo que viven en la realidad de Narnia , donde los jugadores no trabajan ni tienen obligaciones xd

no war would be fun if the "recently claimed gates" cant be drained again

Is it to difficult to hold/defend the sites on asia?

 

[pablo.millo]

Con estas actualizaciones viven en una realidad alterna, que no va con la realidad de los jugadores, todos tenemos vida fuera del juego, trabajo, estudios, obligaciones, salidas con amigos, novia. Estan tratando de activar el juego de manera equivocada y lo único que estan logrando es matarlo.

you can reclaim the tower after the next phase, we have multiple phases in a day now

That was completely the system for YEARS, because you could attack and defend 24/7, this is rather beneficial from what you yourself say. Because instead of 24 hours that you have to worry about, it is less than 12 hours. What do you want? Have portals with all their benefits without doing absolutely anything to maintain it? Furthermore. It's not an obligation to play, it's a game. Why would you prioritize a game over your personal life? If you can fit in a schedule, you can have fun. If you can't one day, nothing happens. Rather, having different schedules helps people who currently cannot for some reason enter the only phase of vulnerability that exists

No attacker side attacking gates in middle of night bc its fun. Its primarily because thats the only time available for them to get gates.

You are complaining about people going for job or school, i understand that but defenders contain many people from diffirent time zones due to their big numbers.

And only thing attackers want is holding gates in the times when they are slightly more than defenders, you are against it but shouldnt you be also against when defenders holding gates in times when they are more?

Also there is a thing that attackers get fame in night without effort but actually defenders get fame in a day without effort.

For last i cant believe i am 'defending' attackers this much as defender in my server

It's so hard the European invaders looks more asian than us in the Asia server


Man we are being hammered by tryhards american server ppl waking up early morning and Dem European ppl after finishing their after lunch come whooping our arse in asia 1

That you have nothing to do outside of the game is not my problem

 

[_Bad BunnY_]

If a person cannot enter "to defend at dawn or at night." Well, a clan is made up of many people, there is always someone available at certain times, and if there is not. It shouldn't be a problem, because you have many phases a day to regain fame, stop seeing the game as "someone must always dominate 24 hours" without even doing anything to maintain
