TW semi-annual competition

defanitely supportive, also the PvE TW's were also a lot of fun, having them rotate in every 3-6 months would also had a whole new twist to the entire way TW's are thought of....
also... FIRST

I like it.

But maybe as an extra to the whole thing, maybe the land owning facs should all get a reward for having land at the reset. Something like 2 weeks of TW payment or so, at the moment of the reset.

I really like the final TW competition between the top facs from the year, but what if all of these winners are the same fac? It's verry likely that the biggest and richest fac before the reset will win back they're lands 1 by 1 after the reset

this sounds like a good suggestion, im all for it once the details get worked out.

Wait, monster TW?

Oh, dear, I want, I want, I waaaaant!

+1 to the thread, and as far as the abuse part, meh, the person would need to own a ton of accounts in one server to abuse that, just to begin with, so, I don't see an exploit there.

*cracks whip* Get to work Devs!

I like it. Aye for the idea.

Does winning territory on this game benefit your faction in anyway, or is it just there to make a feature look pretty? Because something as suggested above shouldn't even be suggested in the first place. It should come as a logical implementation by the devs! I'd have to disagree with one suggestion listed above however; the 50 % exp increase. I know how hard it is to level a character at the higher levels, but the last thing you want is to make a winning faction even stronger! A Good competition is a balanced one.

Not really, just 10mil per land owned per week for lvl 3 lands, lvl 2 lands 20mil, 30mil for lvl 1 lands.
Divided by each person fighting in TW after TW costs have been deducted leaves about 80k per person.

and Mizuoni, can you explain how it could be abused? Can't really come up with anything

This does actually sound like a great idea...well thought Alax.

It wont work. It could easily be abused.


And a ton of other stuff that is stupid tbh imo ijs...

but i dont have time, back to farming repb:bye

as expected comming from a player from Cala =P

If we're going for balance, If a faction owns a lot of land they should realistically have to defend all of it. The time slot limitations prevent smaller factions from gaining power while the large faction slowly kills TW for the server. And without TW smaller TW factions die because they can't effectively practice for TW without TWing. Meanwhile all the higher levels who want to TW go to the Big Faction so they can TW (at least until the TWing is killed) and be on the winning side.

My vote goes to unlimting the time slots, because even if 30 1minROFLSTOMP factions go against "INSERT BIG FACTION HERE" at the same time the chances are "BIG FACTION" can defend and there is still a chance that smaller TW Factions can get some map for a bit.

In REALITY an army defending a lot of territory can be attacked at more then one location at the same time... and while I realize this is a game it still is a more balanced system then we have now.

A lot of your idea is good but would likely require a game overhaul. The concept is good but the work to get there isn't easy. I'd like to see something like that happen but chances are the Devs are gonna go with whats easier. But Kudos for the brilliant idea.
b:chuckle

Another player from Cala here...

I actually don't think this is such a horrible idea. I've always been of the opinion that map resets every quarter or so would make TW a much more interesting animal.

However, I am not a long-term Cala member and I can see how those who may have been here from the beginning would not want to see all their hard work go down the tubes just to please other factions who have been unable to take land with the current system and status of the map.

The GMs would have to come up with some really nice prizes for those "winning" factions, though, or I fear everyone would just give up on TW altogether - why bother spending time and hard-earned coin taking a land that's only guaranteed to be taken back from you in the near future? And not taken back fair and square, in an even fight, but just taken, wiped as if you'd never owned it, so the "little guys" can get their TW on and be happy for awhile?

I really can't see PWI doing something like this because they'd likely end up with a lot of disgruntled players on their hands. And if a lot of those cash-playing TW'ers lose their will to fight, PWI will lose a whole lot of paycheck in the long run, making the whole idea not exactly economically feasible for a company that obviously wants to earn as much as they can from their games.

Let's face it, guys, PWI is free-to-play, but it's pay-to-win, and the GMs wanna keep those payers happy, not the little guy who doesn't spend any cash. So even if there were a map reset, the cash-shoppers would still come out on top in TW and then ya'll would have to find something new to bytch about

*Note: I mean in no way to be offensive to cash-shoppers or non-cash-shoppers. I am a non-cash-shopper myself, with boring gear all only +3, blahblahblah. I'm well aware of my shortcomings in this game and that most of them involve the fact that I don't have the real life money to dump in to get uber gear at +10. I have to earn mine the hard way, grinding, farming, selling ****, whatever. We all have to work hard and earn our way to the top somehow, but what's the point of trying if your hard work will be erased next quarter?
