No squads in nationwars

While I am easily steamrolled by the OP r9rr squads, I like being in a squad with my friends, even if we can't exactly compete with the big squads. So you would be denying everyone the ability to squad. The overpowered players will still be OP regardless.

if there was say 20 r9rrs (example), it would just be nice have 5 in each nation instead of 20 in one or 10 in 2
but i see your point about friend squads

And I see your point as well. Its no fun when they are in an opposing nation, but will you complain when they are in the nation you are in? I personally won't complain b:laugh

I get annoyed at uneven battles (and indeed leave them) whenever I see them, win or lose.

This has been said many times. and I agree.

I know it was debated when the NW map kept changing but was turned down when we got the larger maps.

I would say Squads should be allowed after you enter NW. Yes this would produce a better balance and give people the chance to work with people they normally dont.

I got what the poster pointing out.

If squad where not allow before going on NW the OP ppl will be randomly join on any Nation. there will be no 10 OP ppl on 1 squad. ( dealing with 10 OP kindy annoying )

Number of players in Nation will be equal. (not like other nation have 120 players while some nation have 140 )

Eruvanda - Dreamweaver I understand what your saying but NW does not work like your suggesting. Yes it is the more powerfull you are the more you will win but it should not be because you have 10 squads of 10 OP people that you should win.

The point people are making is simple when you do NW your see this.

Frost 150
Flame 148
Dark 136
Light 152

Odds are the Dark nation will loose. You simply cant cover more lands if you dont have numbers being OP makes no odds if you can take a map if you are not fighting anyone.

I dont understand why people are saying your forced to squad with someone? Why would you even do that in the first place. People are not saying your gonna be forced to squad at all. I solo NW my self its easier than waiting for someone to call a map ETC.

The idea is you enter as a single person - you can then squad with your friends / Faction form that same nation. Odds are you would still have some OP squads. TBH odds of this happening are slim to none anyways

Takes a good squad of moderately well geared people to take down R9rrs

Pls no

We have little enough teamwork as is

And the real fun NW is when R9rr squads go head to head. Then it's all about teamwork b:laugh

Sorry but the event was not made for people to have an "even" game lol it's called Nation 'WARS', the strongest will win, the weakest will lose. *snip* to shorten. :$

As much as I hate that mentality... or whatever you want to call it... it is sad but it is also true... unforunately.

Also I do indeed agree with these other 2 posts that I quoted.

This.

Sorry to sound rude, but I dont really care for people that go NW solo and then complain about the squads. Make some friends. The real fun for me in NW is going up against a real evenly matched squad/our squad winning vs 30 non one shots.

If for example you and four of your friends are all tt90 and you are randomly squaded with 5 r9rr+10, you will get less tokens in the end because at the end of the battle there is a rank according to contribution, and of course the r9s will kill everything and take most damage, hence you get way lower contribution.

I actually experienced this on my seeker tonight, although I did actually get the same amount of tokens as I did alone, I still scored less points in each battle, but the number of battles I was in skyrocketed, and offsetted the amount of contribution I was getting in this squad, as compared to when I was alone.

bah it cut off everything else I wrote.

Most OP squads most of the time not even fights same lands, they usually split people.

Part of the nw fun is to be with friends and talk on vent and strategized..take that away and you get boring event where everyone doing just pure pk farming.

There's a thing, though: NW calculates the number of people in each nation roughly by the total soulforce in there. Which means the nations with the least people have more OPs, while the ones with the most people have the least OP people. That kind of evens things out (and actually lots of times the nations with the least people wins NW.

The whole point is one really OP person can easily hold back 5-10 undergeared people if they're not coordinated enough. So you don't really need the numbers to fight them in every battle. Quite often my squads split to defend/attack two lands at once.

While I do understand the point, that would be time consuming (which is dangerous in NW) and you wouldn't have a well-oiled squad ready, ever. Which kind of breaks the purpose of a squad.

Not Totaly True. It does to begin with... but have you ever noticed after say 30mins new people join a suddenly a Nation starts to Over Power the others? even if its got the best or lowest numbers

At any rate i agree with people saying no and people saying yes. One thing i do have to state that if the field changes people dont adjust very well. Something that happens in PWI a lot.

personally i think we should leave it be. squads let friends go together and while some are op the ones who arent need a squad or some form of teamwork to take those op ppl down. plus i like it when my little <g16 pplz beat a squad of 10 r9s.
