If I have to be honest I really dont like it! The size of the map was absolutely fine before but now its far too big. The fun battles are few and far between, and the changes in supply token reward will likely mean less people being keen to participate.

I was also just wondering what everyone else thinks of the new battlefields? Crystal contest seems to be a pure numbers game- whichever nation can funnel the most players into that battle will most likely win. And bridge battle just feels like a rejected idea for a guild base trial o_O!

Towards the end of nw I was trying to avoid as much of them as possible in favor of flag maps.

How did you guys find it?b:question

    Crystal is excellent.
    Bridge sucks.
    Size, a tad too big, but I think if we're sensible players we can work with it, cuz it's probably not changing.

    If you are going to do a poll... at least know what options the poll should have

    your question : NW revamp- better or worse?

    options :

    1 - I like everything!! :D

    2 - Crystal contest is good

    2A - Hate the Crystal Battlefield

    3 - Bridge battle is good

    3A - Hate the Bridge Battlefield

    4 - Dont like any of the changes- bring our old cap the flag nw back! >=[

    5 - like the new battlefields, lets go back to the last map size

    6 - like the new battlefields, lets bring in server VS server

    7 - hate the new battlefields, keep the size so i can hide from battles

    PS
    the changes in supply token reward will likely mean less people being keen to participate.
    Actually, the changes in supply tokens are absolutely going to bring in MORE people to nw... the only people who really seem to hate the token rewards now, are the ones that were making 200+ per 2 hours... but thats the qq boohoo wahwah that goes on till they figure out how to beat the system again...

    Idk about you but on HL we have max 200 chars/nation .
    This is not NW .... this is worse than TW against mobs .
    What is the point for people with gears to go to NW?
    Good fights - if u find 2 then you are lucky
    New types of battles? - not fun when u have 0 or max 4 against you

    I see that new NW maps benefits alts or low geared or those who go solo and take an empty land.

    For PWI staff ......... u managed to break AGAIN something that was good and worked . b:victory

    way to go PWI - you guys killed the best event in game

    Seriously - how dumb do u have to be to put such a giant map here if you know you can't make it a server vs server NW? 200 ppl in each nation (50 of them are alts) that gives 150 ppl per nation ! and you gave us 200 lands?!

    and yea both new map SUCK !!! crystal contest is a freaking bunnies running contest (make that map even bigger pl0x) and a bridge battle is like.. set afk and be back in 10 min (5 vs 0 and it still takes over 10 min to win it - yay those towers with stun and sleep!)

    yeah, rt is about the same ~180 per nation

    and i go solo all the time... i do not go for empty lands unless it is strategically useful to my nation to do so... otherwise, i am always looking for battles where i will be outnumbered b:sin

    I like the crystal contest a lot. It's great in many way, like even lowly geared people can win if they have enough in numbers against a few op players (unlike the flag capture game where one op player can beat a full side).

    The bridge I don't like it so far...

    And capture flag I like it only when I get the flag b:chuckle

    Overral, everything is fine, except for one thing: map size. I swear all I do in nw is to try to find the most crowded instances, but there are so many of them with just 2 or 3 players. Also, last nw I only found a decent squad to fight against once, in the whole weekend.

    The number of tokens for me hasn't changed. Probably some people are complaining about this because now is hard for any nation to lose too many lands, or for any to get base locked. So all the nations end up with about the same share of tokens. The only people who are getting less token are the one who somehow were always getting 200, everyone else gets more, or the same.

    It would be great if the devs of China would make a new version of NW for PWI that would include all the new battlefields but with the map we used to have (or stop being greedy and update those servers so we can have svs nw).

    b:chuckle my first battle was crystal against that squad; you know, the r9rr+12 josd, full NW gear type. they got all the crystals and then were standing in front of our gates pk/baselocking us. guess who flied around, digged all the crystals and won the battle.

    I think there was some sort of revamp on how many credits are awarded, it felt like gaining points at 2x rate.
    you only purge once #yopo
