Stop Helping these Vets

Ok I have been playing this game on and off for many years now. Using many different names, ive played with many of the top players in many top kingdoms, but mostly ive stuck with newer players. Newer players still have a respect for the game. Im not saying all VU vets disrespect the game but they dont help the game either. i wont name any names. These different groups of vets have their cliques even with in the "Big name" kingdoms. these groups have spent alot of time figuring the game out and found all the best most effective ways to do things. Good for them i say, but they dont teach these skills to many. even their own kingdom mates. If you are in a Top kingdom in Fantasia and havent been taught these things then you are just a pawn to them. someone to take hits and fill blockers and clear the way for them to win. Have they shared their 35K+ oop gaia spamming method to you? have they shared their oop halfer mage method with you? Have you been taught how to best race for HoH score at end of era? do you know the equation for adding troops to experienced armies? are you often asked to attack an army so another can beat it? or sacrifice your army for the good of the kingdom?if you havent been taught these or have been asked multiple times to sacrifice then you are not part of that kingdom, you are a decent player for them to use to better themselves.  Sure they told you if you do this its better, or dont do that its better this way. little things you would have picked up on your own eventually. These methods they have arent just simple things, they know exact specifications of what to build and when. the numbers have been crunched, the strategies perfected. if the few of them have people to help protect them they have time to build their perfect strategies. but If those of you who are out of the loop and realize it decide to leave them high and dry, they are going to have to go back to doing their own dirty work.

People of Fantasia, stick with your real friends, dont join these big kingdoms just because they win. Those of you who are just pawns find your own kingdoms, these smaller kingdoms are tight groups of players, havent played with all but you will be better for playing with a real kingdom not just being a chess piece in those larger kingdoms. Group up with newer players and thrust yourself into the game, watch what your enemy does and learn from it. Talk to people and ask questions. you will be surprised how many people are willing to help. and you will also be surprised at the absolute disrespect that some "veteran" players have for new players.

Forums should be a useful thing but for the most part its just idiots who bash each other because it makes them feel better about themselves. People will say anything to justify what they think is right, twist things to make themselves look better or make others look bad. its best to keep your mouth shut, but i understand wanting to get in on it, but i think it just brings frustration, you end up trying to defend yourself from crazy accusations. It really doesnt matter if whatever is said is true or not, its just and arguement for the sake of arguing . and will continue regardless of what you say even if it is direct from the mouth of god. If they arent accusing you of mass napping, you are a farmer, or attacked weak enemies to build up. regardless of what you are doing if you arent doing it in their favor, you are the scum of the earth. and in the end you will probably get forum banned for picking a fight with a friend of a mod.

So in closing, keep playing with those you know, make friends and kingdoms, dont join established kingdoms. let them keep themselves alive they can handle it.

The best players of the game are not guides, so they do not really need to tell you what they are doing. Obviously if they know a few tricks, they will keep it for themselves. But if you are really into the game, you will figure it out yourself.

Activity is most important. I can beat anyone with any race if I am more active than the person. I can beat halfer at oop with any race if the guy is less active Now you will say bla bla not possible. It is.
General Hugh Gee Rekshun (6/11/2013 11:37:47 PM)
what grade of activity vs what grade of inactivity? Also, let me ask some questions, Whats the equation for Magic Power? For Experience? For prep time, for percents, for Op/Dp? MP for max Bless, magicpower due to power in bless, stg (how many warehouses to gold), aotd, how many troops/exp (also the reviving part)? etc etc How to beat an army 3x your OP?  Time to build a 90ker? How to land half way through era and still beat everyone? What determines pez growth?  Hows plague spread? Mp needed for spells with duration. Like how much mp for 3 tick freeze, or 10 tick.

Anger & bless. Or ownage, or rain of fire, etc. He didn't rule out using spells :P. It's a stupid question though.

"You can ask Dragon, Wilber"

:D

my sides

I know for a fact that theres lots and lots of tricks and stuff I don´t know, and the stuff I know I consider mostly basic and willingly share with anyone :)
And behold, Im still kicking ass on fant playing orc for the first time since my first era (era 25) years ago when I knew nothing.

You just need to know the basics, have common sense, and play smart :)

Ohh...and activity helps a bunch lol :P

i will refuse to answer your questions, SFD.

It basically depends on your approach to people, something like hey, how can I train 35k oop gaia so I can smash everyone else, will probably get you a bad answer.

Oh I forgot one other thing. I came in during the year 2007 so back then things were much better. Again Six, people learn at different paces. Did you have more time to learn while playing Fant? If so, that is what I was talking about. The more you log on, the more you have control of your own actions as you play. You cannot expect to log on once a day and know how to compete with the best. For Fantasia, I have to check three times a day just to make sure my army hasn't been defeated or I have used my resources for building considering this is Fant. It is much more fast-paced. A vet does not have to if he knows what to do at each checkpoint. Point is, you don't need their way of playing. Its something that works best with them. If they do not want to share their secret thats fine but at least develop how you want to play. If it does not work, tweak it a bit and try again. Guess and check really.

Don't talk down to me, sun warrior scrub.

Read the guides and just play the game 

I just want to clear something up. I am just a nobody player, never claimed to be anything special. I am not asking for help. I know how to get 35K gaia oop. im not asking where this info is in the forums, which most of the info in the forums is misleading, i still take over cities with 1000homes and 6000 armories. like someone posted is the most effective build for an armory. I was making a statement about how fantasia is being played. A few large kingdoms and a bunch of smalls, the larger kingdoms have their base players, the rest are what ive heard referred to as meat shields. I want these players who are being used, to find a good home. With people who will guide and teach. You join the bigger kingdoms and you are hardly noticed. you may get lucky and someone will take you under their wing.

how much better would Fantasia be with 6 equalish sized kingdoms? Rather then 2 kingdoms with double the players than the 5 other kingdoms.

There is such a low player base in the game, i figure that if i can convince a few. maybe change the way its played. Compare VU to professional sports take your pick. How long can it be enjoyable when either one or the other stacked team wins the championship every year? I wonder why the players left his game? when i first played VU there were thousands of players. but over time you get bored with the same result everytime. sure its not the same giant kingdom that wins every era, but it is always a giant kingdom that wins.

It is simply time for a change.

Oh, Amon Hem my first era, and on fant, I got pwned D:
