holidays protected, idea for item shop

Post by SaresITA89 » 13 Mar 2014, 13:34

Hello,
I would like to propose some sort of protection against the sige

It may happen that for a specific day (public holiday) the guild can not take action for a sige.
Why not insert time protection for these events?

The game is a B2P, so we can put this in the shop, without becoming a P2W.

example:

stone defensive lvl1 - protects against sige for 1 day, you can use it once every 7 days.
stone defensive lvl2 - protects against sige for 7 days, you can use it once every month.
defensive stone lvl3 - protects against sige for 30 days, you can use it once every 6 months.

the first is used for holidays, such as Christmas or similar
the second for a more prolonged period
personally I'd use the third in August.

Sorry but no, horrible mechanic even with the time limits on use.

What about the guild that can only rally everyone during a holiday, suddenly they cant go on a siege?

I don't know where you live, but when I go on holiday, I can not bring my computer with me ...

I remember that on DF(3 years ago, maybe) a guild was attacked on the night of New Year's Eve .... I do not know about you, but I want to be a New Year's Eve with friends.

Not protection but a delay probably? So a siege will be delayed for an additional 24 hours?

People will use it to delay a siege whenever

Now if sieges have an announcement timer (I think they do, but that might just be war declaration) then maybe you can use it to prevent a siege if you are not already at war or in a siege.

precisely in order to prevent abuse, you can use once every 7 days, a month or 6 months depending on the stone used for protection.

you can postpone a singe, but you can not defend yourself endlessly.

There won't be buyable items that interfere with the gameplay and might give other players an advantage over others, that means no special perks or items.

I kind of agree with the no shop item thing, but I am sure the game devs could declare truce periods during a major world wide holiday or for what ever reasons
( exploits, bugs, etc.. ) if it wanted too?

That's not to say they should give any such breaks for any holidays, but again it is likely you will see some players take advantage of such periods of time to defeat enemies while they are opening christmas gifts, toasting in the new year, etc..

It would cause uproar for sure and maybe lead to some players just leaving and not coming back after their town got ransacked and flattened Christmas morning.

So if the devs want to give any truce periods that is up to them and I do not think there needs to be special items to save yourself bought from the item shop.

I am sure the devs will be celebrating some holidays as well sooner or later as well. ;)

Of course you can't please everyone all the time.... :Bravo:

But there are Holidays that are world wide and are MAJOR holidays for a vast majority of the world at the same time.

Like I said its totally up to them to give or allow any kind of truce periods if they choose to do so.

And I am against any such personal shop items for players to exploit at their leisure.
