But it's Polish R1 => the first BW server (completely archaic game-play)
It DOESN"T change anything at all on English R1.

You should separate them before it's done. I don't have any proof though. Maybe it's just my imagination.

I totally agree with Lysandra except one thing. Instead of 60% I would say it's 100%-1.
Every person is an individual and there is no rational way to prove that someone is normal. And who is that 1 person who is normal? Well. It's me (from my point of view) or it can be Lysandra (from her point of view) and of course it's you Lasher (from your point of view).
Conclusion: there is nothing "normal" on this world. Everything is based on your opinion.

It is a fact that getting to the top is harder for new players but it is also a fact that possible progressing is a lot faster for them. And I don't know why the lack off blood should stop them.


At the beginning of the server there was NO blood. When I was at the top we started making PoH sieges with our allies. There were some people that had lvl 20 or lower and I believe that you know how much blood they posses. That started a blood boom which was unbelievable for me (experience from polish servers). 100 000 l of blood was as good as common and people got used to wasting it. Arcane in every ambush/defence/journey. Thanks to that kind of actions the production of blood was equal to the usage. Then the patch came. Old market used a lot off blood and people begun to get short on it.


I have good news for you. My clan managed to build a hospital so the top has a great blood production now. I can make 7560 l a day. Don't look far, I am easy to farm Tongue

Therefore, you learned how to get there outside the situation you are now promoting as correct, making the precept you are basing your comments on incorrect.

My character was "born" at the beginning of the server. 1000 Lgo, 10 people and 200 l. That is all I had. Now it grown into 10 138 l, almost "infinite" amount of cash and 8 416 503 people.

quote:

To use a sporting analogy, it's like comparing Rocky Marciano, Cassius Clay and Mike Tyson in boxing ..... as there is no basis for an accurate comparison (they never fought each other at the top of their game, they didn't have major opponents incommon, etc) then their records are all that can be compared.

Of course we can't be compared. Our lvl difference make the battle unfair but still I have weaknesses and I don't mind if an intelligent player like you takes use of them.

quote:

likewise in BW, you reached your current state when resources were running normally, but as they are in a state of severe decline (Lgo and blood anyway) the same conditions cannot be applied for comparison to progress now.

Not true.




As for Mortis:

And that is the point of my basic blood saving tactic:
1) You are attacked.
2a) If you have 0 hp you attack someone weaker than you and refill your hp.
2b) You make quests. Especially easy quests with 90% all would be good.
3) You make even more quests.
4) You use up all your blood to join sieges and expos.
5) You are attacked.
6) Just before the end of second phase you attack someone and refill your hp.
7) Buy a disposal.

You kind of forgotten about the ambush regeneration bonus.

As for journeys. In zone III you get about 20-100 blood pre quest. Lets say that you can get at least 700 blood a day. This is enough to turn it into arcana and join a siege/expedition.

Easily. I didn't Smile I was a member of Tainted for a long time. It had only few strong players (the rest couldn't even make a clan armoury) so we had to depend on mercy of stronger clans. This is quite natural but now when the amount of blood is lesser there is a tiny hope for a weaker clan to win with a stronger.

I think that I have both of those "personalities". It is a drag to build your square especially if you are not an absorber but I can do it and protect it with my clan. On the other hand if I want a square I won't stop until I'll conquer it. I still remember the beginning of the server when Azz had 3 sieges in a row from me Big Grin It ended with a patch that has gives an advantage to the defender. He can hire mercenaries at the 1st phase but the invader can't.

It won't be more "strategic". It will be a bigger pain.

I have an constructive idea. Let's delete arcana. This will decrease our usage off blood Wink


More seriously. If you have 0 blood, you don't have to attack someone strong who possesses a lot of this resource. You can attack anybody just to regenerate. Then you can make quests. It should be enough for most important stuff. If you have a good timing between ambushes on you, you don't have to worry about blood.


quote:
but i think getting a small amount of blood from ambushes, even if the openant didnt have any, would help a little bit as well, but would not fix the problem.


You don't get a small amount. You get full hp and eventually loose it on battling. Just choose your opponents wisely.



quote:
Remember that every zone you go up gives you an additional building for blood.


Hospital gives a lot off blood (+100 l/h on the first lvl) but it is almost impossible to build. And you get less blood from quests and more ambushes per day.
Higher - harder.




Although it is hard to keep your blood, I don't want any changes. Collecting blood is one of the most important abilities of a good BW player.

For example sieges. It is not just to join and go. You should ambush your enemy's clan members. Maybe some off them are not on-line and they won't have any hp of the siege? Honestly this is the only strategy in this game and I wouldn't like to loose it Smile

First flaw. Top20 can put their squares on auction. Sell them for a very good price (because they have the best squares) and then retake them to sell them again. Auctions are anonymous, so you can't tell who is cheating and who is not. We shouldn't make ideas that increase the wealth of rich by draining the stones from the poor.

I am not defending them. All my posts are neutral (are at least I tried to make them like that). I don't know why they've done steps like that and why wouldn't they open new servers. I simply can't read in their minds and my influence in the company's future is as good as 0 Tongue



I've also pointed other reasons that were ignored.
a) They work on other things.
b) They have their own life.

a) They have a huge list of unfinished propositions/patches/bugs and other stuff.
b) If the representative means nothing to you that they should be robots working 24/7 on all boards answering the same questions, problems and suggestions.

When I use a dictionary "represented" seems to be a simple transformation on representative.

Representative = someone to represent you
Represented => it's not even a person, it's just a characteristic of someone who has a representative and I see your context very stretched

If your version is true then we have a serious language barrier therefore how do you expect to talk with me?

quote:

on Language ... Translators ... if you are targetting a market you employ people or get people from the game millieu to accurately pass on information from both sides.

And Szeszej is a translator as well. The thing that was strange to me was the first post where we could could read that "Szeszej and C47 don't count". That's why I thought of the Japanese example.

quote:

It is Irrelevant to this server and the concerns put forward by the players here ... to the company it isnt irrelevant to their overall marketting strategy ... but here on Underworld it is.

Gaming Styles and Expectations differ all over the world ... whats acceptable in Japan may not be acceptable in UK ... so applying standards from one to the other doesnt gel


This is something I completely agree. For your information the variety of server types increases. There are two game systems. And the newest r7 PL is a mutation of both so it can almost be recognized as a third type. Another question. What is the purpose in wasting money abroad if probably all those servers wouldn't fit to local players. It better to make one and see if it's successful and then try some varieties.

True, but you misunderstand something. It's not that he is kept in dark. Do you really think that they have a secret that is known only on polish players and it won't leek here? For me it's ridiculous. On the other way we have language barriers. Maybe they can't discuss the problems simply because they don't understand what you are saying.

talking about whats on the Polish Server ... or wondering if Japanese server will do something is irrelevant ... the relevant point is on THIS server you have very unhappy players ... and as a company the solution to that is meet the players partway ... show some concern for their opinions ... and treat ALL your customoers equally ..


Why is it irrelevant? I just wanted to show that it's hard to treat all equally because of our language differences. In other words. Would you really study 49 languages to say "hello, I be admin" if you can just employ someone?

The main problem is that the "admin team" are also the main and only programmers of this game. Although they spend 16 hours a day working on BW, they barely have enough time to speak on polish board. Why should they keep in touch with foreign customers if they have a representative? Don't forget that they also have a private life (whole 8 hours). Imo any kind of boycotting won't turn attention on this board but it will only end up with closing the server.

Another reason of your system problems is that most of the problems were already discussed on polish board. Now, when a topic appears, it usually is closed by a moderator in few minutes.

There are exceptions. The "joining clan with is taking over a square is forbidden" rule came up from Elisabeth. Also the author of the new set of tattoo graphics was inspired here Tongue
