Author Topic: bishops numbers are a gameplay problem (Read 755 times)

thats right weav...Look at the number of fields that bishops have in that SS. The numbers are an indicator of how the war is going. The winning team (defined as the one that lookks to be the one that gets the reset) will get alot player switchovers. Folks want the 50 perks, they dont want to be gangbanged, and are just plain dweebs:)

Maybe they don't want to get gangbanged and/or maybe they are dweebs ... BUT ... they won't get the perk points unless they switched to the winning country at least 12 hours ahead of the reset.

Removing the reset perks is definitly a good idea. The only people who benefit from them anyways are the people who refuse to fly anything with an ENY over 20. Perks are patheticly easy to earn, even for new players, as long as you fly something a bit less common.

A few weeks ago, I was feeling quite sorry for the Rooks, as my squadmates were not currently on, I thought I'd change sides for a bit and see if i could help balance things out for a bit. I play for fun, no other reason, so my only real attachment is to the squad, and that's just "because".
Anyway, I found the rooks to be quite rude. I no longer feel sorry for them in the least. I imagine they are low in numbers is becuase of the manners they display. (This is not a slam on ALL rooks, only on the ones I had contact with.)
Anyways, that's my take on the subject.

The numbers change due to where major %'s of a country's players live. This is not a Bishop, Kniggit, or Rookie problem - its just the nature of online gaming.

I live in the Eastern US - Kniggits always have numbers from about 8PM to 11PM here.

I think hes right.The only answer is to ban all the bishops from ever playing again.

there that solves that

More Rooks play on the weekend, or so it seems to me.

What do you think about a perk cost when it occurs?

Btw, taken on a weekend.

Bishops: 97 players and 4 fields
Knights: 178 players and 21 fields
Rooks: 215 players and 44

AKweav's screenshot was taken on weekend, probably right after the rook joint ops missions had taken place, bishops at the virge of reset and most of them logged off.

If old signs show anything, bish can show this one screenshot / week while rooks can show 6 screenshots proving the opposite / week. So bish are using the same lame excuse 'exception makes the rule' when they manage to snap a screenshot on one of the VERY rare rook resets.

Yeah, but think how boring it would get after awhile if Rooks had equal numbers all the time...winning reset after reset.

I like Nuck's idea.......perk point multiplier based on arena numbers.

PvtPyls · « **Reply #43 on:** October 03, 2002, 09:56:14 PM »

Perk multiplier wouldnt work. People would hop to least populated country and dweebs would jump back and forth chasing best multiplier.
