dst Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 All alliance members do except maybe for a few. I am one of the "lucky" ones that have their loss counter increased. So I have now...more than 300 loses than wins...
Udgard Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 Same here.. I'm already dropping to 1k.. down from max honor of 5k..
maggot Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 No real surprises here. Many including I have already complained that the battle system has major bugs, like the frozen alliance counter, and also mechanics that do not work well with player behavior (the honor system). My stupid hope was that the game developer was planning to begin changes to the combat system early if he was going to do something like give everyone a balanced counter and 5k honor, (it is kind of stupid to do it and not make changes while calling it a "gift" when it does not really help anything much) but it does not seem like it. So just think of it as a nice gift that basically tells you alliance members (and anyone else who keeps a balance), stop thinking of combat as part of the game, at least not a part you can enjoy, until those promised changes come. Whenever they do. Who knows, others might rejoice because they envy your unfair advantages in the head contests and will not think about how they themselves are being affected.
Burns Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 I rather think that Mur thought he might be able to change the behaviour of players with his gift, because being in balance is really useful and should therefore be something that a player should want. Maybe he thought the reason why so many players were out of balance was that they had troubles winning at all, and were thrown off balance without themself wanting it, and just didn't manage to get back to balance. I myself don't understand why people rather choose to have too many losses, but i guess it's about not being attacked, which is quite useless, because if you don't want to be attacked, you can set defs that scare other people away or just log off. The real trouble is of a totally other nature: there are players who stay in balance, but those (me amongst them) log out when they leave the computer, so they don't loose too many battles and get off balance accidentaly, so the chances of finding someone who gives you honor as long as you are in balance yourself are rather slim, and so you are in trouble when fighting because those few who are online all the time give loads of neg honor, but there's no way of getting all that honor back from people who are a bit over balanced. To topic: I myself have no troubles even though i'm in balance most of the time, my counter is not frozen, if i stay idle at willow's for 3 hours i can get all the honor i want =P
dst Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 I would love to be balanced (yeah...the stats i receive are significantly more higher) but I cannot...
Liberty4life Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 yea this problem is killing me, and i am in big dilema what to do i cant fight at all only against few alliance members, so no xp and no wins for me in long run, and still i get kicked by this non alliance.... ~censored by me~ players, like lightsage lucky he is now in alliance (eh ex necro leader in gg ) so if i attack non alliance player i get from -50 to -500 honor in short two more attacks on non alliance player and i am toasted
lightsage Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 I must be doing well getting mentioned... and as far as I know there is no treaty between GG and SoE... So there is no differance there
Liberty4life Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 what treaty?? O.o i said i am lucky cause i can finally kick your ass
Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted October 26, 2008 Root Admin Report Posted October 26, 2008 the ballance issue and the behaviour of the players its not something i can change so easy without running into other problems. I am not ignoring this but all in good time.
Kittiness Posted December 14, 2008 Report Posted December 14, 2008 MD is down, and I have nothing else to do, so I will add a thought to an old topic... I stay out of balance in order to avoid the exp bonus... I know its vague, but I don't want to accidentally post a spoiler...
stormrunner Posted December 14, 2008 Report Posted December 14, 2008 balance what that, that actually can be done I haven't been balanced since mur made everyone balanced and I was balance for all of two days then
