Only thing is we don't see the TKP on our page... like Guild RP.. could you please fix that? Thanks :)


It's in guild -> Titan Reward. Since TKP is separate for each titan it would add 5 lines to the guild page, so I assume it was put separate to make it less confusing.



Yeah I see it now.. but it still shows 0 ?? umm should be some since we just came in 2nd? do you guys have something up?

If it's not been won by FFS, it's been won by Titans Inc.

So either way it's monopolized.

This way it isn't, geeeee

Hoof,

It seems like there are a few minor glitches in the code:

-The 'bonuses' seem to be applying to the wrong guilds (5th place didn't get any).
-The TKPs don't seem to be being given to those outside the top 5.
-The TKPs aren't showing on the guild screen.

Could you have a look at those for us?

Your guild gained 1,237 Titan Kill Points from your guild's contribution to the defeat of the titan 'Ogalith (Titan)'. Your guild also received a bonus 619 Titan Kill Points for achieving the most kills.

boolshit

1st should get the drop .. period! you have once again restored the monopoly to ffs since they have all the previous epic items from all the previous titans


If the issue is about stopping the monopoly, making the 1st placed guild get the drop would just slowly increase the monopoly - EITHER by titan inc or ffs which defeats the purpose. FFS's epics arent going anywhere even if you continue with the 1st-place-get-the-drop system.

well, i'm glad HCS took a couple polls on what we wanted to see changed in titan hunting. of course, this change i don't see as being very beneficial as some of the other changes that were discussed. but at least you made an effort. still, i see another update to this update happening.

Sorry - I spoke to Kaiser and he said you guys got the 'rewarded with' message but they just weren't showing? I thought those outside the top 5 hadn't received a message at all.

Either way it needs a quick check over the code to find the issue.

Yep, people have noticed that - hopefully Hoof can fix that for us this afternoon :)

Once something is 'In' the game it's important to get it sorted out asap if there are any minor issues. We don't want another Epic Elemental quest debacle and I'm sure HCS doesn't either.

Get the item if you get 51% of the kills?

This is a mistake because it will destroy competition. One of 2 things will happen.

scenario 1
The top titan hunting guilds will agree to hunt only certain titans, so they can each time they hunt get 51%

scenario 2
all the top titan hunters will unite in 1 guild and win the item every single hunt


This update means that won't have much effect, because any other guild can earn their own epic given time. You can't form a monopoly if everyone gets TKPs (as it should be). Sure, if they want to band together to win each one - let them but just don't buy from that group. Earn your own.



Agreed you can still get your own Titan Epic with this system, but my argument is that setting the item drop at 51% is a mistake, because it will remove competition among the top titan hunting guilds. Either remove the drop completely and give the winning guild a bigger bonus, or better always give a drop to the winning guild.

-The TKPs don't seem to be being given to those outside the top 5.
-The TKPs aren't showing on the guild screen.
-The kills required seem a bit high - perhaps lowering to 150% of titan HP would make things more achievable!

Could you have a look at those for us?

First, I really like the new update. Thank you HCS get listening and then getting it in the game :)
Second, I also like the large number of kills it takes to get a item. With everyone being able to earn a epic now this large amount of kills needed ensures that the "small" guild ended up doing the same amount of work as the titan killing guilds did by the time they both have the epic. Yes the titan killing guilds got their act together and pulled together as a guild, but they got rewarded by getting their epic sooner :)

And a question: What happens if a guild had TKP from a oggy (for example) and then the next time the went and got 51% of the kills? I understand they would receive not TKP for that oggy, but will their previous points be removed as well?

They shouldn't lose any previous points - the 51% drop should be a reward for that single hunt and leave the previous kills unaffected.

@Uralus - I don't see how this removes competition for kills amongst the top guilds. Both Titan Inc and FFS went after the first Oggy pretty hard!

Wow coming back after a week or so and seeing this actualy being implemented makes me really happy :) Thank you Hoof, its a positive update for the majority of the community, more importantly it came from us the players themselves :)

I ll post more feedback and improvement suggestions after i full understand how this works..But it looks like a great base to start from.
