Please. Just get rid of it. It's nothing more than "Hey, pick a number from 1-3. If you guess right, you get 12 exclusive cosmetic ornaments; if you dont guess right, you dont get any." It's the the most random, unfair, unfulfilling, unrewarding and frustrating "competition ive ever taken part in.
First off, I assume that you weren't part of the Viking faction in the first Season - that's okay, I was a Samurai :POriginally Posted by Jay_3rd Go to original post
If you don't like the faction war, then you don't need to pick locations to deploy your war assets - just play the game. The problem is, though, if you don't manually deploy your war assets, what happened last game will happen again and again. Vikings had the least deployed assets, but they still won because they were smart and were strategic in their asset placement. I'm a Samurai and I congratulate them, but people need to understand that - to not manually deploy means that you are giving those who do manually deploy on the other factions a leg up on your faction in the war. Think of it like a chess game. Be smart about placement.
The winners of the Faction War are not random and the Faction War itself is not a guessing game of which faction might win and is not "random, unfair, unfulfilling, unrewarding and frustrating" - it only is if the faction you are a part of is not working as a team and focusing your attacks and defenses appropriately.
I, personally, hope that the Samurai will work harder as a group this time. Same goes for the Knights and for the Vikings (even though they won and, obviously, already get it).
Here's to season 2! (*raises a mug of ale*)
Nope. I was a knight. But thats not my point. I understand just fine how deploying war assets works. The "randomness" im talking about that most ppl defending this cant or wont accept is the sheer number of ppl that you want to pretend is working as a team when in fact theyre just doing their own thing. It is random.
If nothing else, they could at least make some sense out of the mode by only giving ppl assets When theyre playing as characters of their chosen faction.
Yeah would have been nice to get that for "picking" right instead i got a big FO and another big FO by support so stop crying cause you 'PICKED" wrong. Although i did ask for a Mercenary faction so i could sell my assets since i get nothing for 2 million assets deployed anyway for the Viking faction.Originally Posted by Jay_3rd Go to original post
Please remove it or at least remove the stupid animation that has to show me "everything I missed since the last time I played online" when I click on Multiplayer. It's annoying to say the least and I really really don't give a **** about the faction war or whatever rewards I can get through it. I just want to start the matchmaking allready which also takes forever sometimes. Is it so much to ask?
Dude, it literally take 10-15 seconds max for that animation... if your not patient enough to wait that time maybe you need to relax a bit more instead of getting salty on a forum?Originally Posted by mathi4s Go to original post
There is very little strategy involved in the faction war. Only the last 24hrs matter, and to win those 24hrs your faction needs to lose enough territory at the right time to get the loser bonus to resurge and take the majority of territories.Originally Posted by Zume_Frostpaw Go to original post
Edit: Looked into it, the article I read was wrong, removed the first part, my bad.
If that was true than they wouldn't have won the last round. Knights had the lowest war assets deployed in all rounds I believe.Originally Posted by Zume_Frostpaw Go to original post
Everytime you start the game first you get the Nvidia add animation then you get the UBisoft logo animation, then there goes the connecting to sever screen and afterwards the faction wars animation. Why not add a Pepsi add when we are at it? It's just 30seconds more. Why have any of that? Why would anyone defend it? It's annoying? it is. Then just fix it. People make such dumb excuses for dumb stuff.Originally Posted by ChampionRuby50g Go to original post
