Dark Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I know most of the more experienced players probably have more sophisticated reasons for disliking the cooldown. But here's the n00b perspective: I'm weak. I need to fight to get stronger. Fighting uses AP. When I get killed/drained and out of AP, I can't move or re-charge. The only way to protect myself is to log off for a regen cycle so I can get AP for an escape. So you say "Ten minutes is one regeneration cycle. Why not just wait for two cycles and 20 minutes?" I say because, frankly, that's enough time for me to boot up Civ IV and get two cities going. Then I'm not coming back to MD till I've won a land war. LOL Perhaps we could compromise with Mur at ten minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Marvolo Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Look... My internet fails much... like every 15-30 minutes... So it's going to be 15 minutes playing, 20 minutes nothing, 15 minutes plaing, 20 nothing, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akasha Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 yeah, you can say thank you at the ones that are using bugs for this. that's not cool also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I understand that punishing the many for the actions of a few, is often the reality of situations like this. However, this punishment will result in fewer players. That is a result no one wants. There must be a better way to stop bug abuse. Shrinking the legitimate player base is an unwise course of action, in my humble opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liberty4life Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 wait all this becoz of one bug? O.o so mur doesnt know how to fix that bug so he did this? omfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akasha Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 no, it's not because of that =)) i just said so... i think it has more reasons, but this kind of acts won't help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowseeker Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Hm. I see how certain bugs may be tried to be fixed like this, but in general I found Mur pretty open to the public opinion. If enough are for it he may actually consider lifting it again. But I have to admit with all those who play at school, at work or just like to go idle a lot will have it harder to play properly now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liberty4life Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 yea, i am going offline all the time becoz of numerous reasons, and idle mode isnt working properly for me and i usually dont like it to be idle, logout works better for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brimstone Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 This is so stupid! I try to log on and it says the server may be full...but don't stop trying... so I keep trying, and now am BANNED for trying to log in too much...WTF? This is sure not a good way to entice me to stay with this game... I think if this is not handled soo, there will be a lot more people leaving... I like the game so far, but BANNED? I do not understand this... how long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightsage Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I don't know, but I think that for one 20 minutes is to long, and that this makes HC go upside down in the lower MP lvl's, no more logging off to avoid the stronger player heading your way...

Braiton Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Im starting to hate this new thing. First it told me i needed to wait 7 mins to log in. I let pass 10 mins i came back and i needed 15 mins. I let pass 20 mins and now i need 17 to log in. Its really annoying since i cant log in.

lightsage Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Rest assured that your still idle and farmed happily and I think that even if it stays 20 minutes that will be fixed... that the counter starts when you log off and not when you try to log on again...

lightsage Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I could keep on using spells on you and it would be But the point is that this is not working (properly) and players can't log in, half the players are idle and it isn't as many as there are usually on...
