 Since this thread got a necrobump out of the blue and all of the recent comments, that I saw, survived M4B's cleaning I figure why not bring it back to be discussed again in a rule following manor.

quote:

So recently I have started grinding away at missions on both One Winged Angel and OneWingedA to notice something I have most likely known about for ages. EpicDuel is a pretty quiet game once you are inside a battle.

You enter a duel and you are lucky to get any sort of comment from the enemy which is a far cry from when I started and you had a minor amount of conversation every now and then. Personally I think the imbalance and general amount of luck, good or bad, just kinda sours the attitude of duelists.

What is everyone's opinion on this matter just because a lot of you duel much more than I

That was the original prompt I made roughly this time last year so has anything changed since then? If you are curious and want to see the responses from a year ago to compare with how it is today here is the link until it is removed, clicky!

 I just played a few matches today. I literally only got responses from 2 players who came back after a year.

New players just don't talk. The old ones still do, though.

With the way the community is now I don't blame most people for not wanting to talk. I try to strike up conversations but most just ignore me. What really surpised me today though was in 2 of my 2 vs 2 matches I was actually able to get some conversation out of some people.

Most of the players are excited about the winter event the staff has in store. I mention that and I get a lot of conversation through out the battle.

 I haven't tried using the winter event in conversation, mainly because I hate talking about things I worked on it always strikes me as gloating.

Recently I've been grinding three accounts to level ten for the point of a full tutorial video and in these low levels I've been trying to help players out by hinting they should try upgrading their gear* or do some of the event missions ending in Part 1 to get a lot of credit really quickly. These comments have met me with silence and negativity.

*Most if not all of the players I have met are still using level 1 gear so they are cheating themselves out of stat modifiers \

Some reasons why players are quiet today in PVP:

- Things got boring after some years as most players are pros (playing alts) - Even chat is repetitive now
- They dont like the PVP balance
- They know that chatting will distract them from winning
- They know that they can be reported and banned for foul language

this is the main reason that i don't answer anything in game, the socond is the non sense inapropriamente languages, for exemple, if you try say: "i will put a new armor" it is blocked and idk why. the worst is that instead send the text with asterisks like others games with censorship, the text is blocked and you miss the write time or you turn or the match over.

I don't know if it's silent; I see a lot of people just saying "hi/hola/hey/hello", saying the level of the person to attack first, telling someone to heal, and a lot of people calling others "noobs" (whether they're winning or losing, and whether it's their partner or opponent).

 Hello all. Hope your all well on this run up to Christmas :)
I'm an old Beta player. I might log into the game once every 4-6 months or so out of curiosity.
Sadly, I think you have to except that the silence is reflective of the attitude towards the game as a whole.
They're is a wealth of other things to do on the internet, perhaps you guys ought to simply move onto something else.
For example; I don't repeatedly visit a shop i don't like anymore - but I might visit it occasionally to see if it's improved.
It's credit to a game you once enjoyed that you might visit occasionally, like myself. But, sometimes things just don't work out...
This is starting to sound like some old relationships of mine ;) 'It was good once but it's not working anymore' That's life I'm afraid :) x

The game is quiet because well, it just that people are so focused in winning or they maybe thats just lvls 20 and below. The only comments I get when battling is just from players saying how they are going to beat him before the match even starts. Usually a match for me doesn't last that long, so there isn't really any point to talking to the other player.

I see lots of chat in 2v2, almost none at all in 1v1.

In 2v2 there is time to chat, you take your turn and then three more people play before you do again. Even so, I have occasionally missed a turn when typing, if I am desperately editing typos or freaking out because the chat filter keeps blocking my statement.

In 1v1 I am afraid to even do f4f because I might miss my turn. The only chat I see is by trash talkers, and either they type really fast, or they have a bunch of useful stock phrases to cut and paste, like 'Luuzer noob u die now lol'

1v1 is usually dead silent. Only the few 'f4f?', 'noob', and 'luck'. My level is just outside of the level 40 1v1 range though so that might matter.

2v2 actually gets pretty rowdy from time to time, if not from both sides talking about ANYTHING, then at least from your partner or yourself talking about strats. Though half of those games are just calling out people's level and 'heal/gen' which I dont count as proper conversations

What I do notice is that most people who talk are either the older players (I sometimes check people's cheevo) or people who just returned playing from X month's/year's. While I won't make assumption's about this game's current state, I do think that the community was more active before I stopped playing, chat's were very frequent and the game has a more lively feeling to it. Now, not so much

 For those in Alpha/Beta, were people more talkative in game/battle?

Oh yeah, it was hard to not find anyone who didn't talk. I mean even if they were calling you a noob it's better than saying "Hey how are you" and getting no response.

DigitalX Hello, I play EpicDuel the time they were very entertained many players speaking, the time in which Gamal was the first place I know players like Vix, VegetiX, Gamal and many others, I noticed that at 2-2, partner my not talk to me because he did not speak English or Romanian (my tongue base) usually speak only 2-2 players in my country, very few rest, in Alpha / Beta players talked a lot about how to win faction 1-1, 2-2 faction, do not post a message based factions and come ready to play until the end of the day without talking at all, are frustrated because uni 1-1 players only talk to you after the match and you call 'noob' for losing a match.
My opinion is that old players knew how to have fun, to make friends, to help not only play for victory, new players, new players do not all play for the win, to pull for them not to know how to fun.
In my opinion, no offense, I apologize for my English!
Goodbye!
