Grand Olympiad
« on: February 03, 2019, 02:23:31 PM »
Hello everyone,

as we all know, ever since the new update, the strongest weapons in the game require Fame points.
Fame points can be gathered in multiple different ways (castle siege, fortress siege, territory wars for example), but I think the most fun and interactive way is the Olympiad. Now don't get me wrong, sieges and territory wars can be fun too, but more often than not, people just AFK in their castle to farm the Fame points. I have no problem with people doing that, it's a mechanic in the game, and there's nothing wrong with it, but it makes it impossible for people to get Fame points any other way, because if people are AFK-ing in their own base where the enemy cannot get to them, then the enemy can only farm by AFK-ing as well.

I think due to these above reasons, Olympiad should be changed so that it would start with as few as 2 players, so people who don't want to log in just to afk could get Fame points as well.
Let's be honest, there's no other advantage from Olympiad for those who have already got at least an R-grade weapon, so I don't think there's any reason to restrict how many players on how many different IPs have to log in to start an Olympiad match - afk-ing in territory wars is still the fastest and easiest way to farm Fame points, but it would be a fun activity if we would have the option to farm it through Olympiad.

Please consider either removing the IP restrictions, or setting the minimum number of participants to 2, or 4.

Thanks for reading!
Danielder

Hello

Thank you for your suggestion. I will think about the IP restriction. The fame points are not the issue but the fact that you can becoming a hero through feeding yourself with own characters.

About the necessary participants. These are the values right now.
Class based: Default is 11, Lin2Century is 3 (the value is lower because it is harder to get 3 of the same class than 5 of different classes)
Non class based: Default is 11, Lin2Century is 5

Hello

The value was already at 6. But it could mean 6 teams. I reduced it to 2. Please try again if it works now.
