Weekly Playtime Minimume for Seiges Back

Moadfuncus over 2 years ago

An issue many people have with sieges is that nations can call swarms of randoms that have never played CCNET before and hand them a gun to fight in their war. These randoms never stay and overall just hurt the experience of CCNET.

Instead of a rank requirement which requires grinding (something many people don't care about), implement a weekly playtime minimum to participate in the weekend sieges. If you've played at least 4 hours in the past 7 days you may participate in sieges. If else, you may not. People who can't spend four hours a week on CCNET don't have time for sieges anyways. It's an hour counter over the course of seven days, so active siege participants will get their required play time anyways even if they only like sieges.

Pros:
> No grinding.
> No clans who never play invading the server to swing wars they don't care about.

Cons:
> None.

Cons:
People who don't find much time to play due to school/study/work but want to give the war system a try, OR newbies who want to test out the server's war system (which is one of the server's main focal advertising points = movecraft, guns and cannons) which is like most of the plebs of CCNet do not find the opportunity to do so, and since CCNet is inherently grindy, they will lose enthusiasm and leave (especially because sets drop).

I agree with the idea but I think zaify should add an overall playtime that would be better. Plus torque your argument is that CCnet is only about sieges people can do different things that can also give them enough playtime to participate in sieges.

Your points are already addressed well in the suggestion itself and are a non issues. This can be implemented and tested easily, and the hour time can be adjusted lower if need be. It would be trivial to remove if issues actually occurred. If they are going to leave because they have to play more than one battle session they weren't going to stay anyways. The only reason you would not support this idea is if you want to keep PVP clan warfare where what determines who wins is how many randoms you can summon from the aethernet.

Zaify, this would be easy to trial run. Please consider *testing* it. Even if it isn't well liked as a suggestion, it would be easy to adjust or outright remove if it's an issue. It would potentially solve a huge issue CCNET has.
