We've been reading all your feedback and we're going to be making further changes today. These changes will include the ability to opt-out / opt-in to the PvP Seasons and we'll also be removing inactivate players from it.

 

In addition to this, all targets within the PvP Season will be selected from no lower than one league below your own. For example, a Crystal player will never be matched with a player lower than Gold.

 

All players will be given the option to opt-out, however if you wish to opt back in you will need to wait for the next PvP Season to start.

Here come the number of target issues in the Seasons!

 

Because of the MASSIVE stam and gold sink, there needs to be a way to bounty hunt, for example, using less than 50 stam. We need a way to 'save' xp loss using allies. We need some sort of strategy again, a game! We need a 10-50 stam range so players can use less stam and clear more bountys off the BB. The BB back log is insane. There must be 1000s of bountys waiting to be posted by the system. What about getting the msg, 'you have already added gold to this bounty'? Why does the name even show up in the list to add gold to the bounty? Sorry but this and many other things needs to be addressed!

When is this happening?  Will it require downtime?

There shouldn't be any downtime required. Zorg is working on the changes now so we're hoping to put it live later this afternoon.

The target list on the BB doesn't work too well. After I'm attacked in a rated attack I should be able to add gold to increase the chance the target will be posted. Why do some names not show up? Why am I given the message, "INFORMATION
This players bounty has already been posted so cannot be increased.?"

This is a bug and will also be fixed in the upcoming update.

No xp loss
opt out
attack from only 1 league below.

All useful changes but when put together it completely ruins the point of this update. We're going to be back to the PvP ladder, complete inactive PvP. U should only need to implement one of these improvements.

Looks like we will need a (very) short downtime actually - we'll post in the news before it happens however :)

Is it just me that can't access prior threads on this topic or did HCS just wipe out all the prior threads and comments on this update? When I go into my browser history I get this on the page I was looking at just prior to this thread.

Sorry, we couldn't find that!

I moved the older threads to the staff forum to avoid any confusion about the changes.
