Author | Merge - January |
Even better, lets us click on an allied stack or hero and then click where we want it to move to / what it should do. This would then be shown either on battle screen or as a message in default language to team mates. This would get around a lot of problems in PvP combats or shared hunts.
As for fsp, this is a big problem and I believe it needs to be addressed before merge. Each .com player should be given the difference between their current fsp and the average of a .ru player with same xp to add to any faction of their choice. To do as an event will give anyone not able to take part with a character which will always be weaker than everyone else and probably unplayable in a fair fight. To give a fsp bonus to .com players would cause resentment with players not getting this bonus and still give a very long period before they could compete fairly, even longer when you consider they would initially be likely to lose most PvP combats . |
There is another big problem: russian players that have acounts both on .com and .ru server. As an example, I have almost 11 lvl here and 11 lvl there, thieve's guild here and there. And I don't want to lose one of the characters, as I spent almost 2 years here and 2.5 there. |
that is not only for russian players
i got here level 15 and on RU also level 15 |

I like that idea. I also like the idea of having a selection of pre-prepared phrases to communicate with in battle; Hello, good luck, goodbye, wait, defend etc. It could be in icons as Pantheon suggests or simply text form.
FSP is a big problem for me too. I hope it is balanced out a bit better.
Also important is that any rule changes are communicated in advance of the merge. By the time the merge comes, people might get swept away in the excitement of many new opportunities and not pay much attention to different rules. |
A change to the fsp/exp ratio was announced on the Russian forums, that may offer us some consolation with the merge at least.
"Characters from the third level, in which the total ability of factions is much higher than the average player of his same level in all the battles will give more experience."
Which means that players who have more FSP than is average for their level, they will receive more exp. So when we arrive there, we will bring the average right down and players with high fsp will level up very quickly :P |
How come this idea?
It's good but still weak now
My idea is
Every .com player will receive bonus fsp as soon as merge depend on number of combat
Receive .15 for every lost combat (ie. number of lost combat * 0.15)
Receive .05 for every win combat (ie. number of lost combat * 0.05
PS-.15 and .05 are just a sample |
can you at least tell "why" would admins massacred .com?
any real motivations to do that?
Why?
Because the merge is actually hard from a technical perspective!
They won't do it on purpose but I agree there will be glitches.
Things will get lost and missed. |
25 days and counting down :) |
And one suggestion to fix problem 1: We can have one event until the merge which will give us some fsp. Any event, maybe one of the old ones that we had so it doesn't need any translation.
+1
I really tought that maybe this new years event would be a ground for that fsp balancing but that can happen in many ways. one event that many are missing here is the rest of the "insight" events. we had the demon insight and it helped a lot. we can have the rest too. |
1) Once the merge happens, we will get steppe barbarians faction. Instead of just getting them same as dwarfs, we should get the introductory event similar to the on on .ru. This event could have increased fsp. Also it should give us possibility to build steppe barbarians castle at discounted cost, on .ru there was 20% discount on all constructions, I think it was valid for a month.
So merge could finally happen from 1st March and February would be a transitiion period to make fsp gain and steppe barbs introduction event.
2) There should be storyline for the merge, not just simply information about the merge, as it was with dwarfs. Merge should be also epic, not just technical issue. |
for BrownBear: Agree ^^ |
For BrownBear: your last post is very naive. Who are we to give us something?
Instead, the admins made some updates on .ru. Now those who have more than average fsp - will get more exp in the battles.
Your hope concerning fsp is senseless now. Moreover: you will get more exp now, because your aggregate fsp is much higher than average on the level.
Congratulations: time to quit the game for those few who are still here. |

its true information? |
BTW, Why every com player thinks that his/her fsp is lower than on .ru?
look up here http://daily.heroeswm.ru/hn.php?i=tv12t329#comm and at least 13-14 level may compare whether it is true. I judge that in general the com players fall into the category average player on .ru
There are monsters on .ru and most com players compare their fsp with those monsters, but there are really few of them. |
Dizbe only quoted half the info:

"Characters from the third level, in which the total ability of factions is much higher than the average player of his same level in all the battles will give more experience. character from level 3, in which the total ability of factions is much lower than the average player of his same level in all battles will give more skills."
Skills = faction skill points as far as i am aware.
Maxim says, "in all battles", which seems to me to mean that you will gain the extra fsp/exp from doing battles, it will not be automatically given. |
"Characters from the third level, in which the total ability of factions is much higher than the average player of his same level in all the battles will give more experience. character from level 3, in which the total ability of factions is much lower than the average player of his same level in all battles will give more skills."
Didn't understand a thing. can somebody provide a better translation? |
If fsp is from an event many people are likely to miss it.
If people with above average fsp get more xp this will be a painfully slow process and would leave our players with a severe disadvantage quite probably for years if people play that long.
I calculated in a previous thread that an average .ru player Who has not participated in many of their high fsp events has around 46% more fsp than me. The ones who have played for a good fsp ratio have significantly more but they also should not be punished for taking this route.
I still very strongly feel that the only fair way to handle fsp is to adjust it before merge.
If I arrive on the new merged server and find I am so weak relatively I doubt I would invest more time losing unfair PvP combats. |
For DEATHisNEAR: you are have average fsp compared to .ru. Your aggregate fsp is about 3800. On .ru on 13 level average fsp is within the limits 2700-4200. http://daily.heroeswm.ru/hn.php?i=tv12t329#comm
Where have you got the figure of 46% disadvantage? |
If that has been announced on .ru then I don't see a single reason why it cannot also be announced here - in proper English so we don't have to guess through a bad translator. |
for Asesino21: 452
for -Maszi-: 453
my post is a suggestion that Arctic might read and I wrote it mainly for that reason. If it is good enough, some of it could affect admins actions. Probably it will have no influence, but still I like to share my thought how merge could be done.
P.S. I do not know how merge will be done, my posts here are just suggestions or guesses, not revealing of secrets. |
