Whouldn`t it be good if one of the world was faster then the rest .Also it would be more intressting What do you guys think about this idea:P(for some reason I think that I am not the only player who have thought of this). | ||||
The game used to be run with faster ticks in its early days, until we switched to 60 min ones. Game went too fast and people would die before they could react. | ||||
Agreed with bad | ||||
1 min = 1 turn sounds good XD (whoever sleeps first, dies :P assuming you even survive that long) | ||||
Fant has bigger map and kingdoms, zeta has walls, what about making mantrax an aspeed world? sounds good, eh? | ||||
I remember a few years ago zeta tried implementing a speed server but there were a heaps of problems and the idea was scratched. | ||||
I was actually part of the testing crew and the issue literally became that because things moved so quick unless your internet ran at incredible speeds you wouldnt even be able to load the map before next tick. (When it was tested at 1 tick a minute) There was talks of having like speed VU where it was a tick every 10-20 minutes which could possibly work but consider this the average person sleeps 8 hours that's roughly 40 ticks of missed time. That's a lot of time to not be playing and consider if you have to go to work for 8 hours that's 80 ticks. You can have a blockers broken and the entire portion of someones core taken before they even get home from work. It was an interesting idea but the issue pretty much stemmed from inability to have the game load fast enough or ticks went by so quick it literally was like the end of the world had come and gone while you were taking a nap. I'd love to see a faster map even if it was ticks every half hour but it would definitely have to be tested extensively and balanced accordingly. | ||||
What about ticks that are just SLIGHTLY faster? 50 Minutes? | ||||
That's how fast ticks used to go in the old days. It was shit to calculate what time my army would arrive somewhere so I could be there on arrival. | ||||
the vu speed test was hectic | ||||
