2v1 country ganging needs intervention from htc
« on: January 22, 2019, 12:44:33 PM »
Just took this screen shot moments ago:



Rooks lost more than half their fields and Bish/Nit combined lost one single field.  43 players vs 5 on two fronts.  This is your three sided arena balance.


One country gets tag teamed like Poland in 1939, because it is easy to have double the numbers (or a shipload more in this case) and steamroll bases.

But this is bad for the game.  People logged out, including me.  It's time for a rule to prevent this.


Make a limit on % of bases that you can have on one country vs the other.  Specifically, Country A can't take more than 10% of Country B than Country C.  Once Country A has 10% of B, they must take from Country C before nay more captures from B.


People love easy mode.  That will never change.  But you can't let this dogpiling go on without limits.

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Still think they should institute a 2 base max capture per side. After you capture 2 bases from team A, you must capture at least one base from team B before you can capture another base from team A. This way the "roll one side" get broken up and it forces the team making the runs to attack the "ignored" side spreading the fights better to ALL fronts.

Seems I wished for that a while back and was bashed pretty good. Should we start bashing this thread or go along with it?  I know a lot of this is one sided. Just have to figure out what side we suppose to root for now.

Teeheeeheee

The games not gonna get any better. You boys need to shore up for the future.

Always been that way, placing more artificial conditions on gameplay isn't going to fix it..
But it may have unintended consequences, like making some people walk away..

We all know the root of that 2v1 ganging problem, hasn't changed.. Only one way to fix it!
Would help with the unrealistic 3 sided maps too!

But whatever, the game is, what it is!

If all these guys that say that’s just more targets  we would have no need for eny. I rarely see the guys that say this the loudest ever change. There are a couple that will but for the most part, epically weekend play they squawk it on 200 like they really fight then You see them In The horde in a late war monster vulching fields and picking in high alt speed demons. It’s more of away of self coating for most.

Exactly.  People talk a good game from the comfort of the bulletin board.

Some of the most fun in the game.. go to the side getting railroaded.. roll a 262, kill the mob.  Added value if you decide to protect a base without a GV spawn into it.

Two countries would help.

Not all the folks do that or even offer.
