UNFAIR ALLOCATIONS ON GUILD BATTLE GROUNDS

[Tony.Inverness]

Over the last year approx 32 GbG seasons my guild has always been lumped in with a variation each time with at least 3 if not more of the top 20 Guilds all with over at least double my Guilds victory points. They are normally: Bloodfellas, Warhorse, Renegades, Flying Knights, Happy Hammers, Crecy & Agincourt, ARES, Shadow Warriors and Friends United.

How on earth is this method of allocating 8 Guilds per GbG round fair to everyone else. To have half a chance of getting any decent fragment rewards we have to try and get kicked out of Diamond and drop to Platinum only to be put straight back normally to Diamond and go through the same crap again for 2 or 3 rounds.

The developers need to sit down and sort this out because lots of people I have been talking to are getting ready to drop FOE like a hot brick especially the ones who keep your company alive by buying diamonds.

I am not an IT expert but surely there must be a better way of allocating Guilds to the battle grounds.

At present there are just 564 active guilds in Arvahal who have any League Points.

Instead of relying on algorithms why does a human being actually allocate the Guilds to each round of GbG:

i.e. Top 24 Guilds are split into 3 x Battle Grounds so it is an even playing field for them all
The next 10 Guilds create another 10 battlegrounds and included are one other Guild from the next 70 Guilds and so on and so forth

This is just a quick thought as once again Fellowship of Forge have Bloodfellas, Warhorse, Renegades and Shadow Warriors so how on earth are we meant to progress when the best we can hope for is 4th which is absolutely not good for anyone.

all with over at least double my Guilds victory points.

Are you building on your HQ spot?

 

[Tony.Inverness]

What do you mean?

 

[Emberguard]

The starting province allows you to build a building that doubles your victory points during the season

Did you bother to read any of the other comments on the subject, or do you think you are the only one?

Yeah right. They will stop playing. They will NEVER buy diamonds again. Blah blah blah blah. Very convincing argument. Not like it has ever been used before.

Instead of relying on algorithms why does a human being actually allocate the Guilds to each round of GbG:

Any idea how time consuming that will be? End result will be that players still complain and threaten to leave the game and NEVER EVER AGAIN buy diamonds.

This is just a quick thought as once again Fellowship of Forge have Bloodfellas, Warhorse, Renegades and Shadow Warriors so how on earth are we meant to progress when the best we can hope for is 4th which is absolutely not good for anyone.

Very convincing. Problem is you could also have said you face Pixies, Uncorns, United Fairies and The Mickey Mouse Club. Not like those names mean much to most here.

So what? That does not matter a single thing. For you ten others and those new players are likely to spend more than you now. You might as well stop logging in, cause GvG or something similar to it is not going to happen.

Inno is giving you two options. You either accept the way the game is developing at the moment, or you stop playing. They can not be bothered by the choice you make, cause it will not affect them one single bit. In all those years you have been around, have you ever seen them react to comments like "we will stop playing", or "we will stop buying diamonds". Sure they have made minor adjustments like dropping some game parts, but that was only cause those did not work anyhow. Not because players were threathening to quit or stop buying diamonds.

only time i saw this was when they implemented 1st version of pvp arena but what they came up with when they finaly implemented it permanently on live was not much beter then version they ditched

Your first line is how it actually is Tony. The top 24 is shuffled randomly and play in the first 3 diamond battlegrounds with the 4th diamond battleground filled up by the next 8 guilds, remaining diamonds + filled up with plats if not 32 diamond league guilds.

No clue about your 2nd line, may be some typo(s)

What you are experiencing is business as usual below diamond league as all guilds from top silver to high plat are constantly yo-yoing and end up every two or three seasons in a battleground where they are getting obliterated.

might not be likely to happen but am an optimistik kind of guy so eaven if you say it won't happen i think it might one day maybe not something exactly like gvg but similar maybe

There should be an improved auto-selection for each GbG of the amount of diamond battlegrounds needed for top guilds and the ones that get de-moted go to a new battleground like Tungsten between Diamond and Platinum.

The Product Manager Max has promised some improvements starting with QI but despite offering main city expansions as rewards I don't see it ever being very popular. He also promised some Great Building improvements to catch up with event buildings but they are being very slow to do it.

What you might like shad is what they are developing for Q1 2025 a proper and scalable *%il$ $&. G*$%d, with a proper competitive design!
Some are speculating that it will be a real GvG replacement but I wouldn't count on it.

Inno makes more money with FoE than with all their other games combined. Most money they make comes from app players. So any changes the game will undergo will be custom made towards the app players.

If your comment is true - then why are you logging to see messages here? The game forum is basically useless for this - if you really wanted to know, you should be logging into the Beta forums.

i check both forums here i mostly check once in a while cause i know a few players who are on this forum like Xeon who used to be in my live Langandorn guild to see if i can with my experience answer some of their posts

Some are speculating that it will be a real GvG replacement but I wouldn't count on it.

thanks for the up-date Xeon eaven if i come on forums i don't always see everything that is talked about on here

Mean old Agent and Pure as usual. By the way, where are you getting the fact that FoE is racking in more income than any other games from Inno? Is your source reliable? I only have time for two questions for now.

That is two to many. Figure it out by yourself. Time you grow up.

Just because I play this game it does not mean I have to be good with children.
