xTW Bids not working?

I think all factions automatically bid on the same tier as the week before. I hope it was more than 1 faction to attack Dragon's Meet last week, so many free points for Crisis

that would be very new considering you have to bid manually

Faction leaders were unable to bid this week, and instead received the message that they had alrdy placed a bid, but who knows, maybe the game registered the bid twice n popped up for the 2nd bid, who knows, just PWI stuff

@orinj Pretty sure xTW broke completely this week, Ill post a more detailed post later, but some of the battles that happened this week couldnt possibly have happened, something must be wrong

Pretty much all factions were unable to choose where to bid.

Knights somehow got forced to attack Swirling Dragon Camp which shud be impossible cuz they didnt own a Vile Dragon Camp, which is a requirement for attacking Swirling Dragon Camp. This results in them missing out on 10 points, altho its not very relevant for the standings.

Not a single faction was able to attack Dragon's Meet, tho somehow Crisis still did so and ended up having no opponent there thus cashing in free 40 points for the week. Which doesnt really matter for this 1 week, but if this keeps going on every single week then that would obviously ruin the competition.

Also if factions lose all their Vile Dragon Camp lands for some reason they'd be unable for getting them back since they cant bid on them, which means they'll get no points for the lands they are holding, this too will ruin the competition, altho this hasnt really happened this week, luckily.

Worth looking into?​​

Yeah, probably. I'm going to say it's most likely due to lack of maintenance/restarts on the server. This old code does have issues running more than a couple of weeks without a refresh of the cache.

Adding to my list.​​

we didnt had restart or maintenace for like 2-3 weeks now

we had this week

Ye we have no clue when the season ends, I wudnt speculate that this is the last week since the season started ike 5 weeks later than it was supposed to, we've only had like 5-6 weeks of xTW this season, its way too early to end it

no it went correctly, it states in red wording (check NPC) that there's 4 weeks for ''grouping'' and then points resets. We had 4 weeks to collect lands and then the points reset, it kinda happened exactly like that

BTW while collecting lands we didnt get any rewards (bugged or we not supposed to get them idk)
Also i see that system collecting lands for 4 weeks not really helpfull cause TW season is 12 weeks and then you loose your points.
xTW still is a new event that needs more focus from the devs. As i said in the past supposed to be cross server instead of that still have battles with same server guilds.
Unless if xTW has diferent duration as season from TW

As I agree with the same battles with the Same guilds its also important to Fight your own server sometimes. After all how could you prove to be the best on your server if you only fight other guilds from other servers.

Its also to a point eventually you would fight your own server as they are all randomised. (So we know from info we can see) The first 4 Weeks where because of the TW reset. The XTW event requires you to hold land on the TW server before you get a good point of bidding. Otherwise your bid could be rejected by the server. Again enough bids have to be entered for you to be able to challenge that land. so you need enough Guilds with a positive response.

Over all yes I think many agree the event is Good. But may be still needs a little work here and their. However adding in the last comment that may just be Our PWI version that needs it so odds are the Devs would not code it.​​

And here comes the problem that sometimes you have so many lands that you cant defend. At this point you must go to weaker enemies crushing them cause you must keep the land, avoiding a good fight with a strong guild like you. So please dont say that to prove that you are the best you must attack same server guild. Because most of the times it's pure luck

Hum get me if im wrong but having more than one battle is kinda the point really...

Or are you going to say to a guild "you cant attack us we have a battle this week?" Cant see that going down to well. Wonder if the Romans said to the Scottish sorry no battle today we have one in France. Its about committing people to battles that are needed to try and win. Working out which battles you can win and which you cant decides where you put people. No one in History will have won every battle they ever had.

Nothing stops you fighting that guild that you Crave to fight. Because you cant send the best people? Why not. Your going to loose more lands tho if you fight them? Well you need to read the above part again.

One thing your agree with and I think should be taken into account. Like TW after battle end you should be able to commit more people into a defending battle. This is same as normal TW maps.​​

I'm not sure about battle end. Strong guilds will rule the map then, cause they can leave the map and enter to another battle helping a bit, then move back to another battle.
The only thing that everybody wants is to know in which battlefield is every war and not join with alts to check where is the battle.

I can get that point.

well... funny you should say that.

I believe it should be part of the next update. I think** Im not 100% on this but I know PWCN have had this for a while. Again could be wrong but Yer.

Dont get your hopes up.​​

It seems bidding this week works as intended, whatever went wrong seems to be a 1-week error... Prolly still important to figure out what caused it tho

most likely a script failed to run or stopped running on the XTW server that transfers the info. Restarting the server would have fixed the issue as maint was done on Wednesday. Im sure this will have been looked at by the team and Devs.

Glad its working looking forward to normal carnage on Sat Night.​​
