Nobody plays as Knight faction | Forums

War progression is unbalanced! I can't even put my war-assets to some good use. Vikings and Samurai have way too much players. And when I am trying to spend my war-assets I can't do anything useful for my faction. I am always stuck with us totally dominating or totally losing. Why should I even stay with knights? Probably most people left Knights and went to Vikings or Samurai. When was the last time that knights had like 42 territories? And please stop releasing new broken content and fix the core game!

The same was happening to the Samurai faction 3 days ago - being totally dominated. The Knights and the Vikings teamed up on the Samurai. Now it seems the Vikings have lost interest in staying neutral against the Knights and the Samurai players have all woken up and are pushing back hard.

This is pretty much how its been for some time now.
- The Samurai have staying power and are the best at pushing a single front for the longest time
- The Vikings are the most well organised and are the best at making tactical moves at opportune times
- The Knights are the sneakiest and are the best at short burst pushes right at the very end of a round, most often trying to score a cheeky win at the very last second.

Population size doesn't matter. A player from the smaller population will get more assets for the same in game performance.

But still my assets are most of the time wasted

the results are so inconsistent because nobody cares and just lets the system automatically place war assets, if everyone played and thought the same way in faction wars then it would probably be even more tense and close. I also think that if the player base were put into a faction at the start of the season automatically so you have no choice and every season you get switched so the player base for each faction is even obviously they can't predict people leaving etc but that would have been better.

I don't believe any one faction teams up with another,,,
THOUGH the tin men on this forum and other forums have suggested a pact with the Vikings..
The honourable Vikings laughed at such a treacherous idea....
It seems the tin men get everything they deserve..

The Faction War is imbalanced as hell and has been since open beta. Nothing matters up until the last 12 hrs, at which point you want your faction to have lost territories to both sides. Then, using the loser bonus, resurge and end up with the most territories.

They should really make faction war more like a mini-game. Or at least you should have more time to study where will you put your assets. I guess most of the players do not know that faction war exists!

Have the faction war play a role in every match you play instead of a weird passive fight with points. If you are a Samurai attacking the knights land and you see that the enemy team has fighters with the Knight Banner, if you kill them you gets bonus renown saying Rival Faction Attack or if you on the blue side and you kill the attacking player it says Rival Faction Defense. The faction you choose need to play a bigger role other then the color i put my points into and the more you kill the more points you get to your overall score. If you win on defense you get successful Defense and on attack Successful Attack giving you more assets to place on the map.

It's always a cycle. Just when you happen to be online, your faction loses, but usually comes back later. Knights did have a majority on some occasions for the past days. Also, do remember that not always people use war assets on one location instead of putting them everywhere, there are many who lost interest or simply don't care. Playing as a samurai, I can tell you there were countless times when I defended a location with 49%, putting everything I earned from matches into it, just to lose it later with still 49% on it... The other factions don't sleep either, so ofc they even your contribution with theirs.
