  • guy who logs into alb and sits of there hands for 5 hours? WTF dude you are horrible
  • Incoming post. Albs win 100% of fights tonight
  • This Alb agrees with the quit camping, just saying
  • Nate wouldn't even come out until hibs hit mids, wouldn't hit mids otherwise. Makes for big yawns all night.
  • I enjoyed myself immensely. I read a book and was able to build one of those ships in a bottle.
  • no idea why you guys follow cheating Nate.....

  • thanks for your donation!

    Clumsy... even you hide in a tower/keep when outnumbered 2 to 1.

    No one likes it but donating isn’t fun either.

  • All of this is killing US prime action. This game is not made for “sitting” in a keep for hours at a time with ridiculous numbers. It’s RVR focused, alb may as well run two cursed raids during prime time.

    I really don't understand how the game has evolved to this point, its quite pathetic for all realms really. I remember early 2000's when alb zerg out numbered the mid-zerg 3x1 everyday and you had a few elite hib groups running, it didn't matter how many times you died/got wiped, you just kept going back because thats the true spirit of the game.

    Before IRS/insane ego's/cheating/etc., which DAOC has morphed into, you just had fun going out with what you had and that was it. 4AM "secret" relic raids, huge MG fights that lasted for 20+ minutes with all realms continuing to hit that location. It doesn't matter how many times you die, or what your "winning ratio" is, what matters is playing this game that we grew up with, for the sole point of having fun.

    I don't care who you are, what realm you play for, but if legitimately you find "fun" (PLAYING A VIDEO GAME) sitting in one spot for HOURS, to get one or two "victories", something is wrong with you. Think of how much productive you could spend that time in real life...

    That's a reason all three realms have failed (US prime) in the recent months. It doesn't matter how many people the other realm has, its about having fun. Unfortunately that seems to no longer be happening for a vast amount of the player base making up these communities (zergs) and unless the leaders revert back to the original spirit and fun of the game, it will continue to evolve to BG's moving from 80+ people, to 40+, to nothing.

    Take a step back and think about why you continue to play, because I guarantee you 150+ people on any given night, doesn't want to sit around for one fight.

    I agree with your sentiment. This is why I'm leading my own BG on the weekends in Hib (I don't have time during the week). I have about 2-3 FGs that run with me on a good night and only several will join voice comms =(. Nonetheless, we don't camp keeps/towers. We roam and kill what we can. Usually we die but sometimes we get fantastic fights like this evening against Catsfriend and Rescu. Win/loss ratio is meaningless. High risk, high reward applies to this game beautifully. If you want to grow your character (acquire RR), you have to fight. If you want epic battles, you have to participate. We all shell out cash every month for the opportunity to play. Don't squander it.

    When your numbers are 2x it’s on you to attack a keep and quit complaining about camping. Pretty simple mathematics here. On the rare occasion these days that albs have the advantage in numbers (seeing as bribing others in the realm to come RvR is not a well known alb tactic) they seem to be willing to take a chance on that handicap. Otherwise it’s just stupid to run out and die. No tactic on the open field is going to beat those odds.

    So man up, hit the keep where you know the odds even out or have fun pveing and rolling the solo zone.

    It’s on the higher population realm to make the move - so do it and win some/lose some.

    ALB numbers tonight at several of the towers I owned were 80+, so the numbers were pretty even for the majority of the night.

  • ^^ yes. Just because someone shows a count of a bg, that is just one.

    You say for mids to attack a keep because mids have numbers, yet when albs seriously out numbered mids you would never attack a keep. Ever. Interesting.

    Poor clunky ate a ban...kinda knew it was coming. I think he just needed an excuse to get away from the game :/
  • edited November 2018 PM
    Despite being 100% Alb, my statement stands for everyone. If you have superior numbers (maybe 1.25x), it’s on you to press the attack. Do you think without going into who did what when, that could be agreed upon regardless of realm? Problem solved?

    And I wouldn’t trust bonuses to calculate numbers, you have to rely on scouting reports. In alb right now the two main bgs aren’t exactly having beers together.

  • The reports are from towers/keeps when guards are killed. Albs main problem is running multiple BG's and not always coordinating, can't speak for it's leadership but seems that separating the forces is not a good idea.

    Perhaps you should get your house in order.

    I don't rely on one set of numbers. I rely on reports, bonus and spam numbers from guards.

    Why is on a group to attack a well defended keep? With the amount of st's being thrown out, with the aoe root snare bullsh^t etc....why would anyone line up to die? That is just silly
  • It actually works pretty good some of the time. Lets say spam is 60 on guards. If an opposing force sees that and didnt know better then the second bg could easily a-jam. Co-ordination is the key though, and as stated, thats the main problem
  • Don't blame Mids for your leaders arrogance. Maybe it's time for a new leader, obviously the current ones can't manage to set differences aside for the greater good.
    Or keep crying and enjoy the inside of your keeps, that seems to be working.. (Keep losing players)
    You guys have the numbers but YOU chose to split them and play the "Underpopulated" card because ego and ignorance.

    Not quite sure if it’s a reading comprehension issue or an intentional desire to just always make it about one leader or another. How about just common sense regardless of whom we speak? This is like arguing politics lol.
    And thank you @Sleepwell

    @Jak Perhaps attempt some new tactics. Push and pull back so that STs are wasted. Rezz up and get ready for a second push while sts are down. I don’t have a tactical mind and came up with it, I know your realm leaders could do far better. The game evolves with every new patch changing how people have to think and play. I think that’s one thing that keeps a 2 decade old game fresh and exciting.

    @Impounded hopefully soon we will lose enough that you finally decide you can take us. I’d like to play again. Perhaps when it gets 3 to 1? Have one of the level 1s sitting in Bold counting report back when it hits that number.

    Excellent leadership advise.... cept you seen to have forgotten 30 tics all using the same aoe snare BS. Even if the STs are down kinda hard to do anything when you have 30 tics spamming snare on the BG. So.... Terrible advice

    That won't happen, hitting a camped keep is never wise. Don't pretend like you guys will always attack keeps when an actual BG is on to defend. You will see every BG avoid camped keep. And right now with these new changes... it's useless to even attempt... Once again comes down to the people you choose to follow.
    PS: Same thing could be said about the low level toons that join and leave the mid BG. Everyone has to deal with it.

  • Thanks for the rvr lessons, I do quite fine with my tactics and have always adjusted my play accordingly...and if you have read any of my other comments, I have already stated what you say here multiple times.

    I am against, what I considar dumbing down of the game and tactics. Period.

    Every time.

    I wonder Xy. Exactly how many people can be so incorrect in their recollection of your zerg tactics?

    It's a game Xyorman! It's a fantasy game and not real life. You can boast all you like about how good you know about RvR but quite frankly I don't have the time for it and care. I played the game for fun and found that caring less made it more fun.

  • I honestly don't care how people lead their BGs, people will join if it's fun, and complain if it's not. It's will always be better then no leader at all, like it or not, many people enjoy it who find difficulty to solo or get group invites. It shouldn't matter who leads better, win more, if people are happy playing with them. Everyone has a choice to follow or don't follow certain leaders based on their personal needs.

  • Can't disagree with his logic.

    Personally, i'd rather sit at 50 % with 20 active fights. But going 1-0 and sitting afk working on emails or fantasy football for a few hours works too i guess.

    The good thing about this game is there are options. Log.. pve... small man... solo... battlegrounds... sit afk and read a book. To each his own. BS is happy as long as you feed them the credit card :smile:

  • I do understand. I don't like it, but i have adapted. The % never bothered me. Its the activity level. I despise camping in a tower/keep for any extended amount of time without the possibility of a fight.

    I also despise running in circles. In my late teens to early twenties, time wasnt as important to me. 20 years later, time has much more value in my life. If i decide i want to play a few hours, then i won't waste 90% of that sitting on my thumbs or running a rut into the ground.

    I've done both depending on which zerg or realm i choose to log on on a given night.

    Gonna give hib zerg a shot as it has been promoted as more action and less worry about win/loss %

    I think in the end more population is the only thing that will help overall. I don't see that happening any time soon, so not holding my breath.
