Considering the minimum amount of contribution needed to get any points is 3000, yea, good job being "smart"!

Wrong. My archer has gotten 900-1200 contribution and he's gotten like 9-12 tokens. There is no minimum contribution. If anyone here is being "smart!" its you. Go learn something new why don't ya? I hear people saying "2k rule and 3k rule and crazy contri rules!" but I can disprove all that as can a lot of people. I don't know where you heard that but it's a lie, otherwise lower levels like my archer lvl 80 couldn't get anything cause TT80 gear doesn't stand up to 101's.

Minimum contribution is 3000. The highest myself or any friends have gotten under 3000 is 2928 and have ended up with 0 tokens each and every time. Unless this changed last week, the minimum contribution is 3000.

Good try. b:cute

I'll screenshot my archer tonight and show you. I have never gotten "0" tokens ever. Always 9(on archer) to 132(on sin) and in between. Maybe the rules are glitched or bugged for some people.



There's the time I got 9 for about 800 personal credit.

(3) The national battle award
1) reward calculation rules
At the end of the battle, rewards will be calculated and given to players based on the accumulated points of each country and the individual player himself.

Single battlefield total points: The total calculated battlefield points after every battle will be related to the attributes of the player and his power levels.

【The map layout of the battlefield】，【The continued time of the battle】，【Every player on the enemy side's soulforce and the amount of time he will remain in battle】，and 【The damage output of enemy players】combined are important factors for the total battlefield points.

Using the carving up method, the accumulated points for each player participating in the battle, are all taken from the total score.

Individual cumulated points: the system calculates a number based on the individual player's【damage output】【damage taken】and【number of killed enemies】in this battlefield and rank that number accordingly and attain the rank of each player that has participated in the battle. The higher the number, the higher his rank.

Each player's rank correspond to a different coefficient. The player's cumulated points in a single game = (personal ranking coefficient/(the coefficient of all the players in the rank and) * total individual battlefield points + value added * 15)

If this is the case, then your friends aren't making enough of 1 of these factors to achieve "3000" or "2000" as It's been said on my server. And your "personal credit" amount isn't your total score. Meaning my archer may have gotten a 1200 personal credit, but somehow he got 1800 as well from other factors not relating to personal credit directly. Or 800 if it really is 2000. Or there is another completely different factor that we are all missing, that I am hitting every Nation Wars and your friends are not.

P.S. No one on my squad has ever reported no tokens and some have gotten below said "3000". There's another condition for no rewards.

There is no minimum points.

You can now add to your list of things to do, that people are now DC'ing that have had nothing to do with NW and not even during NW, but now after it as well.

>.<

Silok - Lost City

I've noticed it getting increasingly worse in Warsong lately. Not fun to be doing a pull that ultimately wipes most of the squad because you hit a 4k ping right as you were trying to roar.

Another issue I experienced this last nation wars was a bug similar to the delta bug where I was ported out into cube after dying. It looks like the usual situation where you take so much damage from multiple sources that the game believes you have taken damage after you have died. I have had a couple of people say this has happened to them and is of some concern as I was unable to get back in on that toon.

The first couple weeks of Nation wars there was a minimum score required, which was 3000.
Last night the people I was in vent with said you don't need that 3000 score anymore because it was changed and indeed it was. My sin alt only got 1600 points or something and received tokens.

Glad they changed that to help the noobies out.

Hey everyone,

We're aware of the issues regarding mass disconnections during NW, as well as players being unable to participate during NW.

At this point, we believe we've determined that the problem is related to our server hardware in our East Coast datacenter, and we are in the process of upgrading that hardware.

I am so sorry for these interruptions; I know how important Nation Wars is each week, and the engineers and PWI Team are working as fast as possible to fix this.

I will keep you posted as I learn more.

Thank you. This is the kind of thing that Frankie never did that infuriated me constantly. b:victory

Gotta Admit im gonna Let rip a little here v4liance and im sure i wont get an answer but something would be nice.

Ok so My question..

Q : Why is the game called Perfect World International when the game and event times only cover for the us timezone?

I live in the UK so NW is 4am for me. I cant really play at that time due to work and other comitments leaving my game far behind... Now im close to calling it a day because of this but im hanging on for some thread of life. If your gonna continue to use the International Phrase may be the game times need a rethink after all Eurpoe have to get up at 4am for TW what about our US counter parts. Seams a little one sided to me espically with NW and how you can get the best gear.

Go-go search function! Same thing asked for hundreds of times becomes so fun with the passing of time, huh? No, not really b:shutup .
I'm European too, nw is at 6 am and hell if I woke up more than once to attend. I want to, but it was the risk I took when I chose to play on american servers. They opened 2 euro servers that are in need of players, so, if you can, transfer to those. I chose not to, played the game since Arch server opened, and before that on DW, o I didn't even consider moving permanently to a new server. Not happy about it, but I knew I'd miss out on tw and almost all the fun events .

P.S.: international :
1. Of, relating to, or involving two or more nations: an international commission; international affairs.
2. Extending across or transcending national boundaries: international fame.
So you needed the game to be called PWG(perfect world global) in order to be able to become upset.

Next time please use the forum search before trying to hijack a thread about a different issue. There is already a topic about that issue with a GM response. http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1523341

Quick update:

So, our devs think they've found a disconnecting issue and found a way to fix it. We're not 100% sure it's the same issue related to the mass disconnections, but hopefully it'll help! We hope to have the fix out next week.

We're still working on upgrading the server hardware.

Again, I apologize for these issues, but we're doing our best to fix them. I'll post more info as I learn more.

Could this be causing the random huge lag spikes in instances? Did an FCC and the cleric had 3k ping almost the entire time.

+1 for not saying "omg it's probably your internets being horribadicles". XD Actual information keeps us happy. b:pleased

Lmao now we know why they changed it*looks at your level 93*...I kept scoring over 3000 in the first NW's, before alt's populated it and made the scores insanely low so it's no wonder I didn't know about this and wasn't affected.

Take a few moments and take a look at my other characters. This is an alt I'm currently leveling.

Silly scrubs thinking they're important.

They didn't change it, i've gotten tokens every night except the first (didn't know what the hell I was doing) and I definitely had less than 3k before. My friend has gotten some with less than 2. There is and never has been a minimum score that we know of, it all depends on what everyone else is doing.

Heya,

Another update on that last update.

I'm sorry, but it looks like I misunderstood; the fix will be going out with our next content update, not our next patch.

It'll be a bit longer before we get this one out, unfortunately.

I'm really sorry for this delay >_<

By content update, do you mean expansion/something else?

Disappointing. Any way you can talk to the devs and get it moved up?

Regardless, thank you again for at least telling us what is going on. b:pleased

I still hear people say "I didn't get any tokens"(100+ players) every now and then. Whatever condition people cannot get tokens under it must be dramatic enough to go unnoticed. Some people guessed "you must be in 3 winning lands" but I can say from experience that's not true. So it's something else.

Simplest way, take screen shot of person contribution, take screen shot of over all nation score, take screen shot of the tokens the person got. Post in a new post, and people can help out on the why.

Hello,

Upon entering nation wars today, half of my squad disconnected instantly. Then, throughout the fight, members from our squad constantly disconnect. Has anyone else experienced this?

I am wondering if this has something to do with the recent nation wars issues, and whether this will be resolved by the hardware replace or not.

Thanks.
