NethrosDefectus Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Another thing, How is anyone supposed to sell their PvP marks without contracts? It's difficult enough to get PvP to pay for itself as it is. Some of us dont want to grind AI or spend hours making trade runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait to watch clans pay 5-7m per day. Since contracts are what I do this shuts me down almost completely. Not a big deal if it's not very long.

TheHaney Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I can't imagine this would be in place for more than a few days. If clans are going bankrupt in that time period, shame on them for not being liquid enough. Plus, dare I say it, alpha is alpha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Cadete Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Is the port ui still the same from the testbed server? I heard a lot of people complained (me included) and they were gonna change it. Is it still the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are months away from release and yet many things need to be tested. If we lose another few hundred testers, the game development might slow down or go the wrong path or even continue with hundreds of not reported bugs and exploits. What comes to my mind is that I see little to almost no ROVER players around last weeks while before they were sailing in small size fleets The more players quit, the bigger domino effect it will cause. You can't just implement 1 change without thinking of its effects, by only the goal you're trying to achieve (new Eco Patch). Biggest clans in NA are home to hundreds of players working hard together, that small temporary hotfix will feel like punishing them for no reason. Ffs making gold in this game is not difficult. I make 40 millions when I bother doing a full day of trading. Ez gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teutonic Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 (edited) I think the biggest punch will be when this happens and clans notice their income going down - which ports will be deserted and become neutral again? And who will decide to take them during this time? will ports with timers be reverted to no time windows? And those that keep their time window maintenances will definitely be on overdrive to keep their money supply up. Unless of course a clan has a shit ton of cash, in which case there is nothing to worry about. Edited October 25, 2018 by Teutonic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I would love to see a lot of dead useless ports dropped this was kinda why I said no RVR during hopefully the day or two this happens so no can be taken advantage of or folks won’t get all butt hurt. honestly most of the clans got the money to take care of the ports but some of the smaller ones might. Bit. I keep a weeks worth of payments in the clan warehouse for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is advisable to not set a lot of new contracts before the patch and claim all resources that are held in unclaimed contracts. @admin if y’all plan to do this Monday I would announce it Friday that your doing this. Let folks have the weekend to get things in order. Drop hotfix Monday. Drop patch hopefully Tuesday. The main thing is keep folks informed. Make a post here and the. Put it on the server log in screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so schocked right now. The only one thats suffors right now is those with money ports. The rest of us have all the time needed to find money. So it is not a new problem. Problem is only big if only one player need to find the money. But if shared not that big a problem. Not if it only is for a week. But you raise a point that have been there for a long time. Ports dont make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
