Here's the fix.
If a pilot has not been active for 20 minutes, he isn't counted in ENY calculations. That way pilots that are staying logged in for hours without contributing won't penalize the rest.
-
what if the same number of players are inactive on all 3 sides? or what about cybro that stays in the hangar for hours.
semp
what is lots of guys refused to fly because it's night. like I am doing right now

How would you prevent a mass number of players from sitting in the tower to intentionally lower the ENY and then spawn a mission of perked rides at the lower cost that would then spike the ENY?

What happens when you fux ENY? :noid

When ENY fux kicks in there are probably a lot of disappointed babes out there for awhile...

the eny is the same wether they are in the tower or flying/driving-eny counts the number of people that are logged in to that arena.
at least that's the way I understand it.
lets say-if knights have 60 people on- and bish have 50 and the rooks 40,now if the knights only have 38 flying and gv'ing the knights are still gonna have the higher eny..next time tyou see numbers simuler to that ^ check .cstat and see it for yourself. this past Tuesday night knights had 72 peeps on,at one point at least 30 people were in the tower and our eny stayed the same.

I understand how ENY works. I was showing that if Kiljoy's method was introduced, what i stated would be the problem. His method would cause more problems, and would cause people to purposely sit in the tower in order to achieve a lower eny, which would also lower the cost of perked rides.

Do you REALLY think people would mass sit in the tower for 20 minutes? Really? In our current world, people auger just do they don't have to RTB for 5 minutes... Strawman....
-
With our current MA prime time population, ENY could be eased back a small percentage to reflect that.
-
ok how about this?
when eny goes above 20, no vehicles or planes used to transport troops will be available.
WOW would that make people change sides or what (or rage quit) ?
-
I have always wondered why people would stay logged in and not be playing.

Cookie breaks. :aok

Waystin has a new puppy and he takes puppy breaks...... :D

Maybe we should think about local ENY restrictions...

sunday dec.4th Knights had 23 people sitting in tower 18 of which where there 30 mins to an hour..and I am no way saying that they did it for eny--these are long time Knight players--but it's hard to take defended bases with 5 people
-
1 hour side switch...currently those who dont want to fight eny and with numbers cant get to low number side...dont remember it ever being this much of a problem prior to the 1 hour rule going away....
-
Tower rangers can be frustrating when the players in flight are the minority. Mayby there is a hidden achievement for doing nothing.

do explain how you know these people sat in the tower for so long. I want specifics so I can report to hitech.

With few exceptions, the percentage of tower sitters is about the same on all sides. If this rule applied to all sides, the relative difference would remain close to the same, so functional ENY would be no different.
About the only time tower sitters are out of wack is when one side is close to winning the war. They either A) switch to the about-to-win side, mistakenly thinking they will get their perk point award, or B) stay logged in thinking they need to be logged in to get their perk points.
Yes, it's a mess, but it's what we gots, and the downsides are greater than the upsides when you step back from a myopic view of "I can't fly my D-Pony"

But it's not just a Pony D thing....they are just the most vocal about it...Typh pilots, 152 pilots, F6F pilots...anything 20 ENY and lower without a 25+ variant it causes issue for avid so and so plane pilots....
Tonight Knights were getting hit with the ENY game....if I could have switched sides and known in 1 hour I could be back...I would have done that but yea...we cant have 1 hour back(Can't see any good things that came from changing that to be honest...if someone could show me...that would be cool)
-
could the eny and hoard problems be fixed with a localization of eny in heavily populated bases (hoard) also only tied into top tier on the score table being targeted..(top 100 or 200 say )
so you are not getting eny if you are fighting away from the masses.. or not get eny if you are new or newish..
just a thought..
burn me now !
