    Should be sometime during this month. March 12th will be the 6 month mark; however PWI usually makes a news post a few weeks before the reset.

    Last year the blog was posted on March 27th: http://community.arcgames.com/en/news/pwi/detail/1014570-pwi-_-territory-war-season-3-winners-declared_

    So yeah, it should be announced this month!

    If my maths are good (and if there is no bug on PWE side) then the reset should be on 9th April (or 10th since the maintenances have been on Thursdays recently)

    I always figure count 6 months from the last reset, then add two weeks. It's about that time you should be looking for an announcement that it will be happening in the next week or two.

    I'b be willing to bet that we're almost on a 7-month cycle for the resets, rather than 6 months.

    I bump the thread hoping for an official announcement.
    It seems Sylen was right when he said that it wouldn't be six months. So will it be 7 months this time or more ?

    For next season would it be possible to know the ending date at the beginning of the season ?

    Maybe they announce it this week or next week ;O


    Edit: I was kinda curious about this subject. So i send ticket with question:
    When does the TW season ends? (2014)

    After 2h (ikr..fast) I got so long answer with bunch of link which explain what is TW, how to bid, rules.

    Here at Customer Service, we work with players who have gameplay problems, for example being harassed by another player.
    (ookkk if u say so lol )

    I kinda expected them to say: Soon or something similar ;O

    My thoughts, as wrong as they might be..... b:chuckle

    1) Last TW reset they announced that it would happen a month in advance, we have had no announcement yet so reset is a minimum a month away.

    2) PWI has been focused on the new content, TW reset is secondary. PWI is banking on all this new content to keep players around.

    Conclusion: It might be a while before they reset TW maps b:sad b:surrender

    Yep, even if they are already late, I don't expect the reset to be that soon.

    According to the information I've just got from the french CM, it would be in June (to be fully confirmed but it probably means that it won't be before June).

    Not easy to plan anything for incoming TW unfortunately... and 8-9 months for a season seems very long to me.

    Edit : there is a link in my post but still the same style for hyperlinks and normal text.

    PWE is currently focusing most of it's work-force on newer, more profitable titles that can be milked for quick cash before being thrown to the waste side. Resetting a map in this title (doing work) is the least of their worries.

    Most of the mods have left the community. We only have a few active ones nowadays, and I'm sure they are incredibly busy not being paid by PWE, so they have to work or go to school outside this community.

    Actually if you click on the link in my post just above (sorry for the style but fixing the CSS might not be a priority as well) the information I gave comes from a CM working for PWE.

    2 years ago we didn't have any resets at all =) There was a duscussion about this new feature after announcing it. IMO, 8-9 months is better than half a year, since taking key terrain and moving towards your target faction on map takes several months and after that you have not much time to enjoy TWs. Of course smaller factions can always fight each other without involving top guilds, but they should be really well balanced, both not too ambitious to prefer fight over lands and be close to each other to have fun on TW. And if it doesn't happen, doesn't really matter if they reset 2-3 months later. But if it does, it's for their benefit to have longer season.

    It seems long on Morai, not because it's 2-3 months longer but because it was expected/suposed to be already over. Morai has several smaller factions that shift into a bigger one with their key members near half of the season, then move out when winner is known (and it's not where they are) in order to prepair the start of the season with their smaller faction. Gank attempts also stop when winner is pretty clear, so as not to get whiped off map after reset as smaller faction.

    Well you see the picture of the Morai server. It's in a state of waiting for the reset. We had a total of 3 TW last weekend. If it were known in advance to last till June, it wouldn't have been so sloppy already.

    Reset is announced in advance as it has been said. Just keep up playing like before and don't think of it, you can always switch to waiting reset state after CM's exact info when it would happen :)

    Pretty much this and maybe I have this reaction because my main toon is on Morai as well.
    But the problem here is not even the server size and knowing if 6 months is better than 9.
    If they decide that TW seasons should be 9 months then ok.. but in this case they shouldn't say that there will be a reset every six months... I mean we were maybe all expecting that it wouldn't be exactly six months (just because we know PWE) but well... if this really is in June this will be 50% more than initally announced.

    the dominating TW map faction was giving fair\balanced fights to all the other factions on server until they decided to merge main assets of 2 other TW factions
    (after my faction refused to merge those 2 to mantain balance\challenge and fun)

    cancer politics b:pleased

    also ganks stopped simply because if a gank would happen, the strongest faction wont split assets in TWs to give balanced fights to everyone, instead they will just wine 1-2 fights to overpower and win 1-2 other TWs

    cancer politics b:pleased

    and now smaller factions leader said they wont gank the dominating faction cause "they do not want a gank, they want 1vs1" (but that just after they tagged up with the dominating faction + 2 more to gank my faction)

    b:laugh It doesn't work like that on Morai. TW is all about politics and alliances. You can't attack for just a fun fight and expect there to be no consequences.

    EDIT @Hot : Well yeah, pretty much but you present it vs 1 faction while it's the whole server. Same last season with another faction where you were 1 of the joiners (no offense intended). All big factions on the map had their share of absorbing and then leaving. It's a server particularity.

    I perfectly understand yea i agree, but well when Reign decided to merge with Requiem it happened even before the server merge and Requiem was having hard times in TW as Reign was...

    also requiem always defend ganks, requiem never gave no-shows
    (and thats why imo Requiem past season > Revision current season)

    and the main reason ex-Reign unmerged at the end of the last season was to try to establish some kind of balance and challenge on the server and we managed to do it,
    at some point the server was having just 3 hours TWs from any faction (crisis - requiem , revision - elysium, requiem - elysium etch..)

    unfortunately when crisis approached revision with tws, their

    cancer politics b:pleased

    lead them to give us 2 wined TW and then the holy merge with main assets of Destress and Absolve (the very week after Crisis refused to merge Destress and Vindicate to keep the balance and the fun)

    at that point the season was already a GG

    (and still i wonder at what point the server "death" would be if we didnt unmerge requiem)

    It's like that everywhere, but we had some time to adapt to new rules, they never reset map in time, would be too optimistic(pessimistic) to rely on that now ;)

    You just want longer seasons to get MOAR MONEY! :P And more fair TW (*Cough**Come to fight Stalkers/Insu**Cough*), random PVPing is just so broken without an aim in it and the cost of Dolls nowadays... 190k each time you die is just a ****, plus charm, plus apo...

    I'd rather spend all that in TW and a bit on NW as well, but for that we need longer season...

    1 or 2? Nah, we had some more last season, and after that comes pure CW while farming new lands to small factions that don't come to fight... last season iirc was like 2 months without a decent fight... imho that's just plain boring compared to real TW (even if enemies are not showing lately U.U as they had... well, they split on 2 factions recently :( )
