    I hear fights between GoldDigrz and Enrage on HT were getting really good too, so good the so called number 1 spot is being challenged. Shame this will come to an abrupt end with the reset, at least for afew weeks. Why take the wind out the sails?

    I stand by what I said. Monitor each TW map on each server, and reset them separately when they become stagnant. It shouldn't be hard with PWE being a multi million dollar corporation, but these GM and the CM are so ignorant they don't read this thread or this post.

    I love you (random mod), don't edit my post, we aren't Communists remember.

    I think they read quite a bit, it's just that often the hardest QQers post the most, so the various threads of "server owned by 1 guild we should reset" have probably added up.

    Fuzzy, listen to me. The top faction always says they want a good tw, a competitive one. If you check past TW reports you will see this is not the case. They will not choose to go against each other right away.

    You are right no one forces anyone. And that is my point. PW doesn't force best factions against each other. This new change will not better TW at all. It will be the same as always was except no incentive to let small factions even own 2 lands. Each large faction will be consuming as much land as possible racing to that 6 months mark.

    No one is telling them to attack the weak factions. If an OP guilds wants the dumb prize at the cost of having no real wars that's their own problem.

    And it isn't a problem for them either. You guys really think a small faction owning a land for 2 weeks is better than them having 2-3 lands to TW for over a year + is better? Which gives better practice to learn it? No one seems to want to answer that. Because you know dang well they will lose those lands in 1-2 weeks and sit for the next 6 months waiting for the next hand out.

    That's pretty much the whole problem. No one wants to try and work for TW greatness, they want it handed to them.

    And everyone saying that this is just the big factions complaining, it isn't my faction is lucky to have 90 actual players in it.. like 126 if you count alts.

    Like anyone 'works' for TW 'greatness' (unless by 'work' you mean opens their wallet/credit card/bank account to PWE) Since god only knows the 'monopolistic' guilds that take over or almost take over an entire TW map are the heaviest cash shoppers

    OMG thanks for that laugh I needed that!

    I just like the way a few conversations went between me and a few people. I wont name any names but I will say I've had the same result out of two different conversations from two different people.

    In regard to Rank 9:

    ME: "So, how much did that cost you, refines and all"
    PERSON: "Oh, R9 can totally be 'farmed'"
    ME: "Oh, ok, so how long did it take you to 'farm' it?"
    PERSON: "Oh, I never said *I* 'farmed' it"
    ME: "Oh, ok, so you cash shopped it"
    PERSON: "Yea"

    I just like how "it is totally 'farm-able'" as so told by two people, yet ofc they did not, which is I guess how they justified 'buying' it, because well in doing so they just got it quicker and easier =\ IDK

    I found it funny....

    It's a fact, this game is:

    FREE to PLAY
    PAY to WIN

    I always hear how it could be free to win (how it could be done), but I would guesstimate that this would take two natural human lifetimes to obtain b:chuckle

    I PROPOSE, let all the noob factions battle for the bottom 1/2 of the maps. Venge and Insurrect fight for 1k and just keep on twing in that area so we actually have fun tw's. If reset is so often, why not just go for the fun experience rather than the money? we're all rich cash-shoppers anyway :P

    But if you don't have absolute proof of your superiority, you can't walk around with your epeen exposed and smack people's faces with it. And that's just boring.

    And I'm pretty sure quite a few of the "winners" at the game are only doing it for the sake of winning, not the rewards.

    Yeah, cause putting all your effort into TW is worth it every reset. I really could use a new mount. (not really)

    I would hope the follow-up prizes will be better. I think they're just giving away those crappy prizes at first because that's their 'consolation' for not giving any advanced notice about the reset ("so at least 'we' gave you 'something'" kinda thing) b:surrender

    So a faction of 200 people will probably get 30 Demon/Sage Event Cards to split between them.

    In the end, I don't think this change is going to make a huge difference on either side of the fence (the other thing to remember, every fence has two sides)... It's not like it's going to make the game die, it's not like it's going to make it blow up in popularity (I don't think so)...

    If anything, I think some of the other aspects of this 'expansion' may have bigger impact on the game opposed to this one b:surrender

    Hey look mister I'm not rich talking about how he's a rich cash shopper hmmm... But seriously every 6 months reset is dumb it takes 2 months to even tw another faction that's not gonna let you just crystal walk make is every year reset cause there's 54 lands and 54 weeks in a year means a faction could own the whole map again but not very long.

    I don't think anyone would care about the main map if they would just create some kind of inter-server TW map.

    Of course, it would never happen, but that would spur far more competition than anyone could imagine. All the big factions would stay off server maps if there were inter-server wars. And it would unify the game as a whole. That might actually breathe a little new life into game.

    That would be awesome, actually.

    What if they allowed attacks on non-contiguous land? So you didn't have to be touching something to attack it? It seems that some of the objections are that people won't necessarily be able to attack a "like level" faction because they start out far apart. What is the purpose of restricting the attacks? If the point is to have "fun wars" then having attacks pop up from all sources in any location would at least generate more wars and therefore statistically, more fun wars. It does negatively affect consolidating and holding territories but given all the dismissal of the rewards, what does that matter? And if one is worried about epeen recognition, just keep track of attack and defense success percentages. Unless we need the colorforms of the map...

    Yeah, it's not as if the technology isn't available, it's just that PW doesn't want to put in the effort to make it happen. Either that or they completely lack the skill to do so.
