New Rules Coming = BF and Castle Loss Scaling

CyberPtra

Clarification: how does this apply to retaliations?

You can be hit with bad luck twice.

Lose a castle on defend… and fail to regain on retal
Did not gain castle on attack (maybe land), get retaled and lose castle….

trupheus

Applies to all attacks.

Lord Thane

CyberPtra I didn't add any special logic for retals, so those would follow whatever the natural path is/was. Yes, it is possible someone will have really bad luck and lose a castle and only get land on a retal.

trupheus

Lord Thane a lot of people enjoy starting from the ground up and deciding how they will grow into castles, etc. If we can think of ways of improving the growing pains without removing the option of choice, then that's much preferred.

Let people “roll” their kingdom and choose where X amount of supplies of buildings will go?

Mack10

Lord Thane Maybe not the best place for this but can you please look into the amount of buildings destroyed when winning a battle?
Last attack I did was 22 lands with 99 max build. Might as well just farm land.

Lord Thane

Mack10 the code for 10-30% destruction looks good. I think what you experienced is the defender had a lot of unbuilt land, and you got your share of that included in your buildings spoils.

Xliest no. It feels like old thardferr. And like "old thardferr", without changes to bring new stuff and people, this one will have the same fate. No game is made of 30 to 40 people playing, unless its a friends game.

I don’t remember the end of the original thardferr well. Do you? How small was the player base when dad left to get milk and never came back?

Lord Thane

trupheus that's some funny shit 😂

Adamastor

trupheus yes i remember. I also remember the following types of thardferr. Whats your point? Are you the great knower of how the game is suppose to be? Shall it be your way my lord?

Jets

trupheus it would have never ended

trupheus

Adamastor

I don’t recall how many were playing at the end but I think it was still many hundreds if not in the thousands.

King Haybol

@Lord Thane Hi sire, since we implemented this, I hope it doesn't affect the retals. I can see that it is prone to abuse, as 70% of KS KDs will likely gank higher KS KDs, leaving them with no chance to fight back due to the caps on castle gain.

Lord Thane

King Haybol it is universal, unaffected by retal status. It could be a problem, solution is to not hit below 70% so you stay safe. The probabilistic castles affects everyone currently, so it's fair - we all face the same chance, it depends on your roll (when you attack, you roll a 100 sided dice, hope for good luck).

King Haybol

Lord Thane I just want to highlight that higher KS KDs tend to have a greater number of castles, which directly impacts on the castle gain percentage. This makes them more susceptible to ganking. 😅😅😅

Lord Thane

King Haybol that's a good point, for sure. Luckily those are also some of the most skilled players, I have no doubt they will easily be able to adjust their strategy to stay on top 👍

trupheus

King Haybol

Immediate counter point. The person with the most castles is not #1 but maybe when someone below them gets to 10 he decides to go visit for a castle.

King Haybol

Lord Thane When it comes to retaliation, linking castle gains to the enemy's number of castles is a poor approach. Apology for my negative wordings. 🤭🤭🤭

Katy Perry must be having a field day, knowing I can't attack her KD. I was up all night yesterday monitoring her OOP. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Sinnywinks

Now add in random cli protection times for castle gains and it could be a wild fun time.

King Haybol
If you aren’t trying to pass castles around I don’t see why that would be an issue for the retal to have the same rules as the attack.

Lord Thane

King Haybol sorry friend, I think we really needed this. It's unfortunate we didn't implement it sooner so people could be better prepared, but better late than never.

We will all adjust to the new conditions, and it will be funner for everyone. Soon you will have more people you can target to attack I'm sure, because everyone will start building castles now 🙂

King Haybol

skigglez FYI, All my castles were captured from my enemies. I would be at 9 castles today if one of my Bfeed attempt had succeeded; unfortunately, they ganked me immediately on the same tick when it failed. Lol. 😬😬😬

King Haybol

Lord Thane No worries, sire! If it is for the benefit of the newbies and solo players, then I suppose I need to adapt. 😇😇😇

trupheus

King Haybol

Oh no you failed a BF and got punished……. Serves you right
