Can anyone tell me why this was changed from always having parnters of the same alignment? I keep getting stuck with exile partners and 2 legion opponents causing me to WANT TO LOSE THE FIGHT so we can take the objective. Only thing keeping me from just fleeing the fight is pride. Really, really bad time to make this change, just when legion/exile wins actually start to matter.

the change was made so battles can start faster again.. the wait times were too long.

Because it took ages to actually find a fight.
In some cases it can be at one aligments disadvantage, but overall it was the best decision.

1vs1 is now way faster and Exile's number advantage finally pays off again.

This is going to be a gigantic update with a major change to EpicDuel's primary gameplay, but we are far from done. Other features which should (hopefully) be implemented next week include:
  • War shops
  • War Objective Buffs
  • Upgradable War Objectives
  • More War Objectives
  • Participation-based evolving achievements
  • More!

    		Guess i shoulda been a little more specific, im talking about 2v2 here. 1v1 if your opponent is same alignment, it doesnt matter, your team gets a win either way and you can just enjoy the fight. In 2v2, if your partner is the OPPOSITE alignment, and both of your opponents are YOUR alignment, you winning actually HURTS YOUR ALIGNMENT.
    Kinda hard to enjoy that.

    		But these changes made it so weird IMO. Legion is at great disadvantage and if it's 2 teams both containing L and E then who gets the point? O.o

    By the time it's next week, it's going to be dominated. No point even adding it.....
    I'd rather had a release all in 1!

    		@leprechaun-i think each player gets points for their team in that case.

    		 You know why Wars are released during Summer? Because there's a lot of time. The event is supposed to take around a month as usual so only because you think it's gonna be dominated, doesn't mean we should leave the War with no features because you have your way of thinking.

    You only play video games during summer?
    A 1 month war, makes you sit a yourdesk pretty much half of the summer.

    		@QQ, this may surprise you, but alot of ED's players are kids! They are off school in summer, so have more time to play. Worked great for last year's infernal war. Anyway, back on topic, Trans and I were talkin about this in-game, best we could come up with was let same alignment fight each other for 1v1, but keeps teams same alignment for 2v2. Gonna pop over to suggestions thread and drop the idea in there.

    		 Yes, take the literal meaning. No. The point is that Summer means you have free time, unlike term-time where you have school and have to do homeworks, revise, etc. During the Summer, you don't have any of that but time to relax.

    		I agree the battles were taking too long to find.

    But changing it back ruined the war. Its not even a war now, more like a complete slaughter with Exiles great numbers vs Legions.

    Devs knew that from the beginning, that's why they made it that way. I was really looking forward to this war. Thanks a lot for finding a way to blunder as usual. Well, look on the bright side. The great majority of the players, the Exiles, will be very happy.

    Agreed with pretty much everything you said. This is deffinatly not a war, just a beatdown. I also was looking forward to this war but it's my least favourite right now, I'll just take the gear. My suggestion to devs is to think about this war, fix it and rerealese it. Not saying ot's terrible. The mechanics are great, but as I said not war but a beatdown :P

    		Speaking of Legion Vs Exile is anyone getting the sense that all the Hunters gone to Legion? I get nothing but Mercs on my team in 2v2 and always up against hunters. I'm sick of being Malf/Smoke'd XD

    		There was a reason we made matching always Exile vs Legion. :D

    For now though, we made the call to have fast, fairer matching over thematically sound matching for this week. There's a TON we want to do for next week, but I'm sure there will be time to implement a better system that at least highly prioritizes Exile vs. Legion but doesn't have all the nasty consequences of the last version.

    Even though I am exile guess what? I am not happy in the least. It sickens me that some exile players tell me to take a loss whenever I am partnered with a legion player due to the staff reverting the system.

    Logically, very correct. Used at the right time, nope. There are so little players in Epic that we can barely determine the amount of players of neither side's alignment.
