Bido Showcase Preview

Hello, EpicDuelists! No release this Friday as we continue to stock up content and ramp up on Biobeasts. However, we do have a restock of all Limited Quantity Shops at 10 AM and 4 PM EST. If you don’t know what time that is for your time zone, there are handy conversion guides available online. I will also likely Tweet before it is time. Getting the items before they’re gone is hard for some, but such is the nature of the LQS. Good luck, and happy shopping!

Coming up in EpicDuel in the coming weeks is the next showcase shop featuring Bido (formerly Bidoof). This will feature, like Deuce’s shop, a new NPC, new weapons, items, an achievement, and more! We’ve also got more missions from Ranloth, SSM, and OWA revealing the backstories of some of EpicDuel’s most popular and mysterious NPCs! We’ve also got a Central Station war on the horizon which will be the final war in this cycle before we return, at long last, to the Dread Plains!

Join the BioBeasts Discussion!
Did you know the EpicDuel team is working on a new mobile game called BioBeasts?

And No Power Weekend? :/

Edited reference to a mistake ~Battle Elf



Lord Machaar -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/29/2015 15:43:47)

I thought the war was going to start this friday, but anyways, looking forward for Bido's showcase.



shadow.bane -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/29/2015 18:20:06)

Bido's update will make me earn my 3rd blue star ! i guess am the fastest in earning stars lol 3 blues in less then 11 months of creating the account :)



Mother1 -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/29/2015 18:35:56)

@ Shadow.bane

Well in some of the older user's defenses they didn't even have 3 blue stars back in the older days. I remember when the limit for blue stars was just 2 and I was 1 blue star away from maxing out.

Now I am 2 stars away from my first red one. But none the less I wish you luck with earning your next star.



Digital X -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/30/2015 5:28:26)

This is truly suffering: http://imgur.com/COZwVNv

Bring on the update because I am sure ready for it. Might end up with enough credits to buy something new, and it's been a while since I've bought a new item.



shadow.bane -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/30/2015 5:32:28)

thanks @ mother1 , you know i have old accounts that are disabled years ago with 2 blues m should have 6 - 7 blues by now :/ but too bad they are disabled ! this account am using now was just an alt but it's a main now and am working hard on it , so i am getting rating points faster then any other player in ed i guess . i mean who can reach from 0 to 3 blues in less then 11 months :p .



Exploding Penguin -> RE: =ED= May 29th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (5/31/2015 18:20:53)

^Rating points are 100% just playtime.

There's almost 0 challenge in getting rating points aside from beating bosses, but defeating bosses in itself aside from 1-2 is generally not too difficult.

Speaking of red stars, I don't think I've ever seen someone with one before.

Final war I see? Does this mean we get a new phase AFTER OMEGA?



ambien -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 14:57:32)

the new phase is already done 2 months ago but the war has to be done with before the new release can come forth




always the syfy



Ranloth -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 15:25:06)

There is no new phase. DNs merely mention the Regional Wars will return to the starting point, which is the Dread Plains - and we may be making adjustments to it; nothing set in stone. Changing phase would only result in a new name and new promo - you don't need to change phases to implement new features, nor is there a need to change the phase for the sake of it.



.Lord Ginger. -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 18:14:14)

@Ranloth Yea there is. Omega A.K.A. the phase that ruined ED



Darkwing -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 18:23:05)

And how about some numbers for exile and legion players.

Cause exile won the last 2 wars like they played alone.


You guys need to balance the sides, give reasons for players to join legion.


If not, you can just skip wars, why bother? And give exile a trophy from now and then.



Lord Machaar -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 21:50:20)

^ I have given a suggestion to limit the players who can enter the war in order to balance the numbers between legions and exiles, but ofcourse exile players can't accept this because this means they will no longer have easy wins at wars.

The thing is, any solution to make the war fair again, it needs to put players number into consideration, unless ofcourse, they come up with a "magical" solution that fixes the problem and let all players join the war.



The berserker killer -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 22:00:07)

Why don't you guys show two numbers in the sky in central station:


Legion Players- 320

And

Exile Players- 320

Show the amount of Legion and Exile Players who currently have an account on EpicDuel then install a click feature that will show how many players are online and another to show how many have been online for the past 24 hours. I feel like that would give us the chance to actually balance out the game itself.

When I suggested making it free to switch sides, Legion won the next war. But many players have moved back to exile because we felt that Legion finally had enough players after many of us moved over. If we can see an actual number, thatd help make our decisions.

Edit: And seriously please bring back flags. I'm not trying to be funny, many of us thought that if we endured this war system that you'd give us our flags back.



Mother1 -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 22:21:05)

@Lord Machaar

So basically to balance the war we have to restrict players who want to play only because one side is undermanned? Sorry but even if players didn't complain the staff wouldn't do that for the soul purpose is that if anyone wants to play in the war they should be able to do so. Not be told 'you can't play because there are too many people on your side and it is unfair to the other side.'

It isn't even about easy wins it is about being able to play when you want period which is what your idea would do to any side who has more players.

Also the barrens war had Admin help which shifted that war into Exile's favor where before hand Legion had the upper hand. Sad but true so that war you even though Exile won it wasn't 100% exile unlike the later war.



Lord Machaar -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 22:26:00)

So do you have another solution? Or just because this isn't exile players problem, it doesn't matter if it get fixed or not? And therefore we will be against any solution just for the sake of it?
In the end, this system will be revamped in one way or another, it always was the case, with players approval or without it.



The berserker killer -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 22:36:50)

I seriously dont think wed have this problem if the war cap tier was increased to actually give us rewarding rewards that would compensate us for the amount of work the players put in.



Mother1 -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/1/2015 23:56:20)

@Lord Machaar

Way to assume I am biased because I am exile when you can't be any further from the truth.

I want a solution for the problem as much as you do, however I could never support a solution that will punish players for something that isn't their fault.

Telling someone you can't play a game because your side has too many people in a war that is supposed to be for all = punishing innocent players.

Is it the players fault that one side has less players than the other? No it isn't yet with your solution we are punishing innocent players.

It wouldn't matter if I was exile or legion I would never support a solution that punishes players for something beyond their control.



The berserker killer -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/2/2015 0:53:36)

^ I second that

@Off topic: I never knew I need 201 ranks to max the cheevo??? Looks like ill start playing again



Darkwing -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/2/2015 8:55:57)

What if they apply something like the Underdog mode for wars?

Let's say legion have 100 players and exile have 200 players. Legion would do double damage for the war? Not just time limit boost.



Lord Machaar -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/2/2015 9:06:29)

Have you read my suggestion?
It was clearly fair for everyone, if you wish to play, you will have to show that your able to play, because eventually, if each inactive players does atleast 500 influence, it will rack up to widen the difference between the two alingements. Mini wars will just select the players who are willing to play in the war in each alignement.
This is worldwide known, even when they select students to attend a university, they select them based on their scores, sure, scores aren't the best indicator for an invdividual's capabilities but still, it is the only way, since the university can't accept all the students, a pre-selection is needed. It's not a matter of innocent or not innocent.

Once again you just stood against the suggestion without thinking about another one, because once again, it's not exile players problem, it's a win-win for them anyways.
Sure you might want this problem to be fixed, but you aren't rushing it anyways, this war or next one, it doesn't matter when it will be fixed, does it?

Any solution will come with consequences, it was always the case. Don't expect a solution with zero collateral damage, because if you read the solution above, "an underdog for wars", it might look a great solution, but will it like all players? It would be more beneficial for legion players to have such an underdog mode, they will first of all be competitive, but on also, they will gain easy influence... Isn't this unfair also?




The berserker killer -> RE: =ED= May 28th, 2015 - Bido Showcase Preview (6/2/2015 12:35:19)

@ Machaar: I don't support that

quote:

The difference between the world and ED, we can control ED, it is a controllable environement, where cruel world rules don't apply, it's called a game. I hope you understand this, anything you gave as en example is irrelevant, because there is a difference between a "Game" and "Reality".
