Region 53 Magic CP %

Posts : 63 Join date : 2013-09-11

We just watched region 53 go from 55% Dark control to only 32% dark controlled within a 5 minute span. There is no CP gain by light players to support such a drastic change. Also, our guild command was mysteriously removed.

I had just did a match on it and was on when the "glitch" happened. 53 was at around 55% and the Unceasing Auxilliare had over 10% ip and had a attack command on the region. I finished my match and the cycle ended. 53 was no longer at 55% and was down to 30% instead. Also our attack command was no longer active. Please take a look at it and fix it if possible ( i know you can Very Happy

)

Also here is a screen shot right after the glitch happened. I dont have one before the glitch but why would I. everything was going normally.

Thank you for the report.

It seems that something went wrong at that region. You will notice that in the Regional Info Window (Rankings) you are not able to go to other pages, while in other Regions it is possible.

We are on it.

Update:

The page problem is generic and not related to that Region only. We fixed that and the fix will go live with the next update.

We are searching to find out whether a bug created this change in CPs or a huge rush by the other Faction.

Conclusion:

There is no bug. The reason why you noticed such a big difference is because Regions in the middle have smaller CP containers and therefore an organized enemy rush attack can have a huge impact in the balance of power.

Let me provide some more information:

1) Currently, the CP container for the Regions in the middle is 15712 CP, while the "normal" Regions have 24173 CP.

2) Veteran players can earn as much as 100 CP per battle.

As you can understand, 10 successful battles by a veteran player is 1000 CP, which is 6% in the balance of power. Therefore, a well organized attack can easily obtain a whooping 20%-30% increase in the balance of power.

We don't expect a single player to "win" the Region kuba_. Note that I wrote about a well organized rush attack...

I would still refute the point that it was an organized attack by the entire Crimson family. They attacked to 30% dealing a crushing 25% change within 5 minutes but magically stopped as Dark regained the tile without loosing any more percentage for several hours.

Good because nobody said the entire Crimson family mobilised for 5 minutes then disappeared.

You are friggin kidding me right rune. The region lost 25% in 5 mins and then thats it. No other lightie resistance and no more attacks. Now that just sounds ignorant. We were able to put it back up about 5% in the next 30 mins with little to no push back. Now we are going to lose the region due to a bug that you'll just ignore. Broodzero and I were both on when this happened and would not post a bug report because the lighties decided to push a region. I think we play this game enough to know what that is like. Now please stop insulting our intelligence and actually look into this. As something wrong did happen.

We have looked into it and we didn't find a bug. I explained above what has happened. I am definitely not trying to insult anyone's intelligence, but you should probably not underestimate the impact of a well organized attack. I explained earlier that a veteran player can amass 1000 CP or 6% for that Region's CP container in 10 battles. Imagine if several tens of players, if not hundreds, are doing the same in a time period of a few minutes.

it's now very difficult, if not impossible, for a player to run off 10 max CP battles in a 'few minutes' due to the increased difficulty of battles. Prior to the last patch, this could be done by running hard mode solos on fast forward. Now, I'm very sceptical about whether it can be done.
