We are in need of a solution for better wars in the future. And we need all the ideas and creative help we can get from the community! First, i want to talk about the current war: I think the reward system is well done, achievement wise and all that. Nothing wrong with only one side getting the achievement, or other rewards. The problem lies on the (un)natural difference between the two sides. The fact that Legion players are more numerous, for example, than Exile players, leads itself to an unbalanced war. There isn't an equal chance for both sides to win, at the moment. Now, if Legion and Exile had a similar playerbase, the war would be more competitive for both, and maybe both would succeed equally, with evenly distributed awards as well. But this isn't the case, and Exile might lose if they don't make an extra effort. On the other hand, Legion can counter it by pushing harder too. There are Players who joined Exile for this war who feel regret. All the effort is gone wasted and dies upon the clear possibility of Legion winning every layer of the war. This causes some Exile players to become demoralized and maybe even give up from the war, increasing even more the difference, while chances of succeeding drop. It starts feeling mandatory to join Legion in order to win the war and earn the extra achievements. It shouldn't... but it might become mandatory. Following this, if nothing changes in the next war, the problem will grow, obviously with Exile migrating to Legion. Legion players have done nothing wrong, neither Exiles. It just happens to be like this, and the solution would be to change the war system itself in the future. _______________ What can we do to change it? One idea would be to make it so only the Top x contributors take part in deciding the outcome. But this would make some people feel left out, since they aren't contributing... I don't know, I'm just throwing my thoughts here at this point. It's hard, but I'm sure there is a solution for equal chances somehow. With all this in consideration, we are in need of ideas for solving this problem. - How can we keep the balance between two different playerbases? - How can we achieve a competitive war where both Exile and Legion have the same chance? - How to do it while still letting everyone contribute to the war? I now ask you guys, please, let this be a constructive thread. No flaming or discussing about the playerbase, Legion or Exile, or how unfair it is. That doesn't matter here. This thread is for suggestions, and how to make it better! :)
