#954400 The Best Player Medal!

Posted by Mister Doom on 04 December 2015 - 09:20

For the record though, I personally don't agree that being the highest ranked xp player does warrant being given the moniker 'best player' so I AM all in favour of a name change.

 

And while I'm not against a new medal being introduced that could possible better represent a 'overall best player' title, I really don't think it is even possible. Medal counting doesn't work, since there is no way to break a tie that could involve identical medal count using different medals, without giving certain medals preference over others. (which I would be dead-set against)

 

A community poll would be a sham, merely devolving into a popularity contest.

 

Perhaps some kind of behind the scenes checklist the game keeps track of? Something that monitors our precise activity throughout the game, granting medal tick to whichever player scores higher on this? I don't know, even this would fall short as some players spend a lot of time on FS helping other. Their contributions wouldn't necessarily get them any recognition on such a system.

 

Personally I think we just need to rename the current medal...

 

That way people who get offended by the game classifying highest xp players as 'best' are assuaged, HCS don't have to assign resources to a new game-wide tracking system and players who have worked towards these medals already aren't completely done-over.




#946215 How do you recruit players

Posted by Hoofmaster on 21 August 2015 - 20:46

I think one of main ways we can attract new players to the game would be to have the mobile / tablet version of the game. Once we have a beta version ready we'll be looking for players interested in beta testing it to iron out any bugs before it's released.

 

We're also looking at the possbility of releasing a PC / Mac client for the game by setting up a Greenlight for it on Steam. As we're using Unity to develop the new mobile / tablet version of the game, it will allow us to also make it work on PC / Mac without a huge amount of changes (mainly just stuff to make the interface work better for mouse / keyboard etc.). Note the game will still be available to play via the browser as normal as well.

Whenever we have the pinata global, ever notice how many people have no idea where to get the pinata bat? It's even in bold text. Go figure.

Sorry, but if people didn't read the news then that's their problem.. You don't just vote on something without knowing the consequences.. It was there, in clear text, if, the 'NO' vote wins then they will revert the system.. Anyone who argues that they didn't see it, then that's 100% their own fault.

Why can a lower level sit comfortably at first in the league while higher levels are constantly bombarded with hits? I'm seriously hit like 300 times a day.............. While I'm blinded with blood from the eoc bloodbath sub level 1000 sit at top 10 with an inconceivable amount of wins and are never contested.

are you serious???  have you seen their logs??? well, we post everything in our guild chat, BRICE n FERAL have their logs FILLED with hits, and with our guild opting out to keep our guys buffed, and BOTH OF THEM spending FSP, gold and STAM to MAINTAIN their PROVEN spot on first and second place, their WINS are not contested because they are true wins.  EACH nite they go offline, they are continually hit just like all of us are/were. not to mention our guild log is FILLED with them being placed on BB when they are only doing the seasons.  im very sad to see that you are calling wins in pvp "inconceivable".....look at the ratio.....alot of those wins are from DEFENDING attacks also....there are also some great PVPers "sub-level" 1000 in the top 25, one of whom waited till almost the end to make his climb....is there flaws with the system, only in the amount of times you can hit someone in a period of time......i, myself would wake the first two nites to be spammed with hits from the same two players, glad one is in the top 25, but it takes both a defensive and offensive stance to work this seasons..........not to mention GOLD, FSP, STAM and BUFFING.

 

THEY MAINTAINED their first places by being PVPers.....not just hitting players hoping to win...... 

 

A HUGE CONGRATS TO THEM for doing what they are supposed to do...PVP!

 

try not to take anything away from them or anyone who made it to the top placings!!

Your lucky, you got into top 100 doing 325 hits = 16,250 stam

I did 689 hits = 34,450 stam (+ had to use huge pots and ALL buffs)
some players did 1110 hits or more = 55,500

So, your complaining about lack of stam, try being a target with 50 EOC players and try and keep up. The stam gain for others is much more challenging.

ofcourse I don't have a chance against an EOC but you do cuz you are an EOC and all of you guys have a lot of max stam (50k+) That's why you guys did all of these attacks but I did all of the attacks I could do (according to my stam) I have 2500 max stam and 3500 with epics, I didn't bounty hunt, level or anytbing just to save each and every bit of stam I have to do hits and it wasn't enough to stay at crystal cuz I got hit overnight till I went from crystal ( that I have been in for more than 3 days) to Gold Rank 16, so how's it fair that after a week of hardwork and every bit of my stam gets waisted ina few hours overnight ? This can't work like this, you have to give rewards for wjat league you have been in for the most time during the season not the league you got knocked down to because of people who kept at bronze league and before one hour of ending the season they got to crystal without the trouble of getting attacked each day, so that's what I get for fighting all of the week instead of sitting at bronze league where you rarely get attacked and just getting to crystal in a couple of hours ? Thx!!!!!

My guess is that the low-level gets to hit high-level targets, but never gets chosen as a target for the high-levels, so progress is one-sided.

It probably also links to the complaints about multiple hits from the same person. If someone does come within range of that low-level crystal leaguer, then that person will keep arising as the target, and the crystal leaguer will get to drop them two leagues (and out of range of being selected as a target) in a short time.

Both of these could easily by fixed by implementing retaliatary attacks - for each season hit you get to make one season hit back. That would also flatten out the distribution of target selections coming from the RNG-based algorithm, and so give fairer leagues.

hey now.....i got hit at least 200x a day as well....was also on top for a short time...its not just high lvls getting bombarded

HCS,

 

Please, once again, look into putting a timer on the # of times a person can be hit. I have 11 pages of hits from when I logged off last night (wait, scratch that, when my buffs wore off, so a 4  hour window) until seasons ended. It dropped me out of 2 leagues. There were only 5 players who were hitting. Over 400 attacks from 5 players - great system you have (please read into the sarcasm here). 

 

I'm sure you guys read the warnings of this was going to happen. Yet you did nothing to change it. I'm very disappointed, and just last night goes to show why the PVP seasons are a farce. If fighting though the seasons only comes down to the last two hours prior to them resetting, then there's no reason to partake unless you can be on during that time. 

 

Thanks,

#933890 Code Update 2.705

Posted by moonfrost on 28 May 2015 - 13:49

Like I've said numerous times before, I scan my find player list quite regularly and see the same names day after day and even without using FSHinderer it's pretty easy to figure out than a new name popping up is a potential target as they're either unaware that the weather has suddenly become chilly and are not used to watching their onhand gold...or they think they can sneak through my winter wonderland unscathed holding all their gold from their hunt. Most players in this game don't change their playstyles over time and are pretty predictable in what they do on a daily basis.

 

That being said, most of the time the ones you need to worry about in pvp are the ones who don't say anything to you about it. They're also, if past posts are any indication, the same vicious pvpers who also give loads of advice on how not to become a target. As such when I see hidden coffer, thats an invitation to roll the dice and see whats being covered up.

Don't know if you begun on this, but if not can it be Levy and Gajeel from Fairy Tale? If you have started then I'd just like it as a third :P

 

I haven't started the fairy tale one yet so it's fine. I'll have them posted by tonight.

Let me start off by saying your work is phenomenal. Dayum. That John Wick (though biased) makes me cry man tears.

 

Could I get an avatar with Gentleman theme? Suits, whiskey, ladies anything of the sort. But Gentleman. I couldn't find a render or anything of the sort.


I hope you like Michael Corleone

#891725 Straight from the heart

Posted by BadPenny on 29 September 2014 - 00:08

I have played Fallen Sword for a very long time.  Everybody knows this.  I have made many friends over the years, and I love each and every one of you.  You are the main reason that I play Fallen Sword.

 

Dramatic changes are coming to Fallen Sword.  At first, I was alarmed and angry about them, and apprehensive that these changes would destroy my favorite game.  But the powers that be assure me that they will not let this happen, so I have chosen to trust them and try to embrace the changes.   I have made this choice public, and have received some unexpected criticism.  I have been called a traitor, pathetic and disappointing.  Being told these things is hurtful.... and it makes me sad to think that I am not as respected as I have endeavored to be.  I am not complaining here, that is not the intent of this note, just stating facts.   My point is, I just want those that have these opinions to know that I am none of these things, and that I hope you will reconsider.  Know this, my feelings about you have not changed, and you will always have a place in my heart.  

 

Please don't judge me by the company I keep.  Fallen Sword is a diverse community, and my alliances stretch across all class lines.  I judge you by yourself, not your game style or your level or even your longevity in the game, and I would hope you would judge me in the same manner.

 

To everyone who has stood behind me in these difficult times, thank you.  You can't know how much it means to me.  Thanks for being my friend.

#890533 what happened to guilds defending their own?

Posted by yotekiller on 22 September 2014 - 03:39

It's called teamwork and most pvp players (and therefore guilds) understand this concept quite well while most leveling guilds seem to be full of people more focused on themselves and their own level number than actually working together for the greater good.  Sad but true and yet most levelers will say the teamwork of pvp'ers is evil and cause for the ruination of the universe.  Easier to point the finger of blame at others than look in the mirror I guess.
