You may call it realm balance, to again and again outnumber Alsius with at least twice as big armies.
I guess you do enjoy those moments really much, but some of us don't.
The last days this has been pissing me off to the point that I several times considered quitting the game.
Tonight it happened once too much.
If nothing is done soon, I don't want to keep on playing anymore.

Hmm this isn't like you Znurre. I hope you feel better in a few days after the dust settles.
In any case good luck with your Warlock. :)
(Although I do think that NGD should do something about the "realm balance".)

There is not such thing as outnumbering, only small and big challenges.
Ok, now serious. This can piss me off too, because there's nothing we can do about it. Against Syrtis we sometimes defeat armies twice as big as us, but in Ignis are mostly at least some conjurers who know how to play and then it becomes very difficult. I don't think forcing people to join Alsius would be a good solution because they might don't want to play for Alsius, they will be frustrated and leave. I would love a xp bonus for people in Alsius :D but that would be unfair. I just don't know what we can do to get more people.

Having a bonus completely isolated to Alsius is actually a pretty good idea. It would attract new and possibly more experienced players to that realm. The bonus will be available until the numbers start to even out ofcourse.

Ignis holding Aggers for nearly 2 hours, without us being able to do a shit, that isn't a challenge to me but a slaughter.
This is one of the reasons why I joined Alsius on Horus :)
Not sure what they can do on Ra though.. Hang in there Znurre.

I oftenlook at my brother's (Dky's) screen when he's playing and especially in the morning it seems to very empty in Alsius. Later on the day it gets more busy and they can actually start to do something big, like retaking one of their own forts. During the few times I was in Alsius it seemed that there are a lot fewer Spanish speaking players(with a great exception for La Jihad, of course). It's like there is a majority of European players. This makes the spreading of players even worse.
A plus is that Alsius really learns how to play good this way. They have to play efficient and try to don't lose anybody. They are really hard to fight against, Alsius does the most damage per player of all realms.
However, Alsius really has to fight a lot better than the rest in order to don't lose all the time.
I'm against giving the current players a bonus, they are already very good. I do think there should be some kind of encouragement. Maybe raising the xP for players under the 20 by 10%? That would attract a lot of new players and from 19 you can get to 29 on just quests, so there a bonus isn't needed.

For example at Trelle the otherday.
We coordinated our areas, choosed the same targets and had very good conjurer support... still we could not kill the Syrtis army there.
I am not the guy who is known to give up easily, but here I actually said "they are too many, let's go", because we did not stand a chance and there was nothing we could improve in our gameplay.
Yea Alsuis doesnt have enough strong players to recapture fotrs often, but they always have people for PP.
IMO, realm and amount of members is ok, there is just no interest to fight for realm but for group of friends. And thats problem of their own organization.
No any kind of xp or other bonus would be fair for their realm, because its their own problem. plus that will make yet another zergling realm, which is problem of game already. making more same problems is not good.
Players usually dont go to fort because of lag, thats yet another problem.
Personally, I cant remember last time i ve seen some of the famous players from alsius at any of fort wars in alsius i ve been recently.
lag and bad organization btw "tribes" are in pact, thats result. change it or take it, thats the only one solution.
but even if they get any additional bonus to "encourage" ppl to pick goatland, i would have nothing against, if that REALLY can help them to surpass "problems".

I agree with Znurre.
You can try as hard as you may to look upon it as a challenge, but the basic fact is that it sux and gets really tiring.
Aggers gets taken: there are 2 or 3 times our number there.
A group of us go to pp: there are 2 or 3 times our number there.
As for taking Samal or Herb: these are 'no go' for Alsius atm - we rarley hold them for more than 5 minutes, because guess what? - 2 or 3 times our number turn up.
This only promotes more hunting from Alsius palyers, instead of proper war, because after so many mass slaughters you begin to wonder what the point is.
Something like this post needs to happen:
Having a bonus completely isolated to Alsius is actually a pretty good idea. It would attract new and possibly more experienced players to that realm. The bonus will be available until the numbers start to even out ofcourse.
The bonus could apply to any realm whose numbers fall below a certain quota relative to the other realms.
It would be a step in the right direction...

I'm glad someone agrees with me. I hope NGD has thought about this with realm balance. Not only xp bonuses, but maybe money bonuses in this current economic situation would be good too so rewards such as quests and the amount of loot/gold/drops from mobs is increased. Lower the cost on weapons and repairs etc etc. You all catch my drift?

I agree with you, getting overrun is really not enjoyable, it sucks and when you freeze too it's even worse, the feeling of being able to do anything at all.
I think teh only way to solve this is by letting a script at the chose realm screen write something like "alsius is in need of YOUR assistance" or whichever realm has the worst stats of people.
Horus FTW.

Yea Alsuis doesnt have enough strong players to recapture fotrs often, but they always have people for PP.
IMO, realm and amount of members is ok, there is just no interest to fight for realm but for group of friends. And thats problem of their own organization.
I agree.
Last night i was in the Ignis capture on Aggers. While our numbres were even with them (specially at the beginning) it was very evident that some Alsius players only stay when they know they have an easy win (I could give a few names, but thats pointless... but they are mostly "holas")...
A few days ago, Ignis was holding Aggersborg, i get online with my hunter and was in Oasis save. I go all the way to the bridge, just to find a group of around 10 lvl 50 Alsius players from a very famous or reknown clan going for hunt in Ignis (instead of helping their own realm)...
...So, yes, i think it's not as much a matter of numbers as you think, but of coordination, "interest to fight for the realm" as Anpu said.
There are many times in which Ignis goes to Aggersborg only to last 5-10 minutes and then get slaughtered by a stampede of angry goats. In these situations they are usually more than us. Funny thing, having that number, they rarely retaliate by taking Samal or coming to the bridge at least...
BTW, the realm selection screen has been changed now...

You must play in WZ being of Alsius in order to see the real situation in the wars.
It´s easy to say : "The problem is that you they aren´t organized or a lot of "people" is doing other things"but this isn´t the real problem.
That isn´t the only problem, a lot of auras and areas, unbalance subclass etc...
Then there is who do you help? Do you go after a group at the fort? What about others that are hunting people leveling?
It is far from a simple problem of organization. Let’s face it none of the three realms are truly organized. Just the other two have plenty of people to compensate for it.

08-12-2008, 09:07 PM
Being outnumbered is a real pain, in Syrtis we feel it only for a moment and it's really hard, can't imagine what it's like when it's continuous.
What about extra money / XP for Alsius until the problem is solved and extra RP in WZ ? This until the balance is back, of course.
By the way, speaking about Alsius, Trelle save is too close to the fort. Hard not to "save camp" there.

I've been in all three realms... so I'll just post my opinion about this :P
Syrtis, obviously, has the largest amount of people... but the worst in organization. They are like sheep, and will follow the first to move; if they have a good leader, they would not only outnumber everyone, but destroy them in a strategic way :eek24:. If there is no leader, typically they will not move... only chase. They need someone to make up their minds for them in terms of moving.
Ignis has a nice amount of people and a reasonable about of strategy, and is typically winning 50% of the time, and losing the other 50%... unless they get on a roll, in that case watch out, they can even take down the mighty Syrtis for minutes on end :D
Alsius has the least amount of people, and the greatest amount of organization in most cases, but 10v35 is still 10v35... whenever we win back pinos, we usually either head off to Trele to fight there, or head to PP... but we rarely do anything past defending a fort. Other than that there might be 5 or 6 people attacking meni asking for help.
It reminds me of what DMC told me while I was in Ignis... seven hunters with repitition shot can take out an army....
Alsius is great with coordination, but I think we need to work on timing in a few cases... if Alsius had as many people as whoever they were fighting, we'd win 90% of the time. Period.

Enough of Enough is the name of MY threads :O

Perhaps you should hunt and avoid fort wars? Hunting is still quite fun in Ignis. If you see me there don't attack we can hunt together. ;)
Fixing the realm balance would be easy- Alsius could just be made into the default start up realm for a while.

Znurre, there have been a few threads like this in the past (Spanish forums) but NGD refuses to acknowledge/take action regarding the situation, just like the rest of the unbalanced areas of the game.
Offering a small amount of Xim, or simply putting a message for the least populated realm (not obligatorily Alsius) would help, but it was needed a few months ago when a lot of people left: they left because the game became boring (and unbalanced) and with a lesser influx of people Alsius couldn't renew itself like Syrtis or Ignis do.
A lot of great players left because of the unbalance and influence of luck in the game, two classes have been dying (Knight & Warlocks) and Alsius has become really underpopulated... This is not new, it's at least 6 months, yet NGD still hasn't reacted.
So Znurre I understand you when you feel like quitting, hunting is boring and fort wars are extremely repetitive when you're outnumbered and with all the auras. You just have to consider why you still play.
Do you still enjoy the game? If not, is it for the people you play with, and if yes does it justify playing a game you don't enjoy?
I noticed that when you are starting a new account now, the first realm to appear on your selection list is Alsius. Having Alsius as the middle selection on top of the other two realms should make more players pick it subconsciously. NGD should also make Alsius sound more attractive. Make the beautiful Alsirian landscapes a selling point for example.
phoenix_jackson
08-13-2008, 09:14 AM
So let's assume that Alsius had some great PR and garnered a good number of new comers. Are the level 50s gonna wait for these newbies to get to decent levels to be able to aid them at the War Zone? Will they be patient enough?
Thinking about it, when I put myself in their place, it would still be a struggle. Given that grinding is really sadistic nowadays, and xim isn't available to everyone (with means or no means).
I bet (but I'm sorry to assume if I'm wrong) Znurre is thinking of another means: To limit the number of players protecting the fort.

I'm not so sure; i think it would create a 'queue' for the other 2 realms, and players would switch to an elf race as soon as they got chance.
It would give us a larger army, but some of them would be unwilling volunteers...

But I think the problem is who would want to play as something that looks like a half goat half human, and then the dwarves, as if they were anything new.
Little kids like to play in Syrtis, and some of the people who love the evil, the bad, you know the people who have no creativity in their names (the guys who can't make a real RPG name, but instead they have to have something with dark, or shadow, or evil, or hell, or blood, or blah and blah, you get it) those choose to play in Ignis.
Face the facts, Alsuis isn't attractive at first glance, and thats the problem

Lag has really become a bit heavy sometimes and I've seen some lately crappy Aggers fights but quite some good ones too lately. Ignis seems to get unconcentrated sometimes :p. Anyway, for me it really doesn't matter if ppl die or not. I will always go to Aggers if I still see serious, promising, organized, risk taking offensive attempts and players who don't press a key only every 20 s and play like if they are having a snack at the same time :sleep_1:.
P.S.: Thx to Inkster and Eli, who can sometimes be persuaded to go there lol, thx to Maldoror and Serafina, you two rescued my warlocks ass countless times yesterday I guess. And last but not least thx and sorry to all those brave warriors which rather often don't get healed in time.

I choosed Alsius because I wanted my character to be a dwarf.
The myth about dwarfs was probably developed in bronzeage, maybe even in chalcolithic period, when people started with mining. Because I like bronze age and I am interested in early metallurgy I choosed Alsius.
But yes, many young players choose Syrtis because of Legolas syndrom. Most people that are "dark" minded in any way choose Ignis.
I guess Alsius has the oldest player base in average because of the different images the realms offer to new players when they start the game the first time.

Even Legolas syndrom got me in Syrtis, but it couldn't keep me in there... no way in hell :cuac:... elves are SO VERY POPULAR, as opposed to "midgets" and "goats". There's a "Good" side, a "Bad" side, and it seems a third side... that no one has heard about. Personally I redirected to Alsius from Ignis due to timezone issues with my friends there, and I'd say Alsius has a much more mature community overall than any of the other realms. Syrtis is the most childish of them all, but I can't be 100% sure of that because I don't speak spanish :cuac:

PS Ink and Eli ya killed my warlock yesterday :pSorry Aries but, have you played this game for the past half year?
If such an attempt was done, there would be 2 different outcomes.
1). The enemy see you before you start to cast your areas, and a conjurer is lightning fast with putting up a dome. Epic fail.
2). You cast your areas, but knights are ofcourse using barrier so 50% of the enemy players fall, you kill 1 or 2 thanks to warrior areas and then you die. Epic fail.
The only tactic I can come up with is to have like 10 hunters with confuse lvl 5, go into camo and confuse every conjurer at once (at once, to prevent them to dispell each other), wait for a few seconds and launch areas from front and back at the same time.
But where are the hunters to do this? They are hunting.
Where are even the players to do this, or any similar manouver?
SImple answer: nothing of this is possible in Alsius certain times of the day.

But this evade stuff thats going on is crazy. I remember casting tremor once on a grp of maybe 15-25 people and only 2(!) got hit by it. The evade rates needs to be toned down and fast.
And alsius needs more people.. im getting bored of rushing to herbred for a good fort war only to be zerged down because usually pines is a dead place and noone likes it.

I know you from the beta and we have spoken several occasions, if someday you want to participate in Alsius just send me a pm and you can use my warlock assuming all the consequences.
....
Thanks Kathris f by every time you health me when i was dying and to Inkster, Eli that are a great shield so the enemies don´t kill me.:sifflote:
Znurre, there have been a few threads like this in the past (Spanish forums) but NGD refuses to acknowledge/take action regarding the situation, just like the rest of the unbalanced areas of the game.
Offering a small amount of Xim, or simply putting a message for the least populated realm (not obligatorily Alsius) would help, but it was needed a few months ago when a lot of people left: they left because the game became boring (and unbalanced) and with a lesser influx of people Alsius couldn't renew itself like Syrtis or Ignis do.
A lot of great players left because of the unbalance and influence of luck in the game, two classes have been dying (Knight & Warlocks) and Alsius has become really underpopulated... This is not new, it's at least 6 months, yet NGD still hasn't reacted.
So Znurre I understand you when you feel like quitting, hunting is boring and fort wars are extremely repetitive when you're outnumbered and with all the auras. You just have to consider why you still play.
Do you still enjoy the game? If not, is it for the people you play with, and if yes does it justify playing a game you don't enjoy?
Hey Magnet!!
We miss you, swine was asking about you the other day:metal:

What about extra XP for Alsius until the problem is solved
This is a good idea but I don't see
and extra RP in WZ ?
how this would help

I would love to one day :D
I guess nobody would mind. In Ignis we would even allow you to stay ... .
Lag has really become a bit heavy sometimes and I've seen some lately crappy Aggers fights but quite some good ones too lately. Ignis seems to get unconcentrated sometimes . Anyway, for me it really doesn't matter if ppl die or not. I will always go to Aggers if I still see serious, promising, organized, risk taking offensive attempts and players who don't press a key only every 20 s and play like if they are having a snack at the same time
thank you ^^ oh don't worry, you won't even feel me taking a snack, I eat as fast as I kill a level 1

Extra XP -> you would become a lvl 35 - 40 earlier, so you would be useful in warzone earlier.
Extra RP -> since lot of people are rp whore, that may help people to go to war instead of lvling.
Syrtis was so outnumbered at stone earlier this morning, first time it was so bad. The only thing I managed to do was to go to the market, buy some fruits and come back online. There is nothing fun with this so something should be done.

By the way, speaking about Alsius, Trelle save is too close to the fort. Hard not to "save camp" there.
If the goats had the numbers the other realms do that save being that close would be HUGELY beneficial to them.
Possibly the worst char to play in fort fights at the moment.

Add Utghar, that's me XD.
I can't see why you all whine so much about trelle save. Even if it was far... we would still defeat you when we amass a big number.
There is something none that hasn't played in alsius understands, 99% of us use pinos save. None uses trelle unless the fort is being attacked. So basically you always have a long time while we gather forces in pinos, run the whole distance to trelle save and then strike.
Another thing... Stop complaining about that when, for example, Alsius has NO acces to any castle.

I never realize, to be honest. This is a problem.
For trelle save, the closer your save is of the fort, the easier it is to fight. But sadly, when you're outnumbered, the easier it turns into save camping. (I have nothing against attacking save, I love the fact that ignis is attacking central now :D, but camping is different).

Sunday afternoon, Ignis take pinos, Alsius struggle to gather a decent-sized army.
We are outnumbered around 4 to 1 (i exaggereate not).
Time and again they overrun us - with total ease and hardly any resistance.
This is becoming a regular occurance.
It is no fun whatsoever for the Alsius players, who are being beaten so easily, not because of the way they are playing, but simply because there are so few of us.
In the strongest terms possible i suggest that NGD do something about this problem, because it is spoiling the fun for the players of the most unpopular realm...

The players themselves need to do something Wudy. I sent you a PM telling you the same thing i told Znurre the other day. You have mail.

Make alliances and enter into agreements with other top warriors and clans for mutual defense.

That sounded so gay.
Even for you.
If you mean between alsius we already do it, within realms its totally stupid and ruins the game.

PS: I proposed joint operations in Ignis only with Znurre's clan and Wudy's clan under the principle 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend.' One accepted, the other didn't. I just want to have fun, and helping the totally outnumbered goats defend themselves from the evil Smurfs sounds like a lot of fun to me.
Wait.. Does that mean that our clans will work together in ignis?
Im confused now.

Nah, dont worry. Most of your clan doesnt want to act in that coward way.
We can be tiny and outnumbered, but we still have some pride.

Translation: "That sounded so lame, even for you.". Blood doesn't use the best words, but this time the meaning is obvious.
So, please don't see personal attacks where they aren't. Calm down a bit please. :)
Continue with the thread and don't reply to this post.

Usually (if I'm on) I'll throw a note in IRC. Maybe I'll coordinate through dracus next time....he's usually on there.

Znurre turned down the offer on behalf of her clan, but agreed to hunting excursions with me and other daggers in Ignis, on a personal basis.
So for you it doesn't mean anything.

Let us know, i think we can have a LOT of fun if we work together against ignis. You guys are totally outnumbered, but you want to fight, and you know what you're doing. Works for me.

To continue with the topic some stats Urgit gathered 1 day (only 1 day, i know may be innacurate but shows how much you love us) using the webpage info.
Source (Spanish):
http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/forum/showpost.php?p=492856&postcount=173
Little crappy translation:
This was gathered monitorizing the fort captures of 1 day, since 20:00 of the sunday to 20:00 monday.
Principal fort:
- Pinos was captured 17 times for a total of 6,5h, Stone was captured more times, 18, but for less hours 2.7 Samal was captured only 7 times (always by syrtians) and they lasted for 1.08h
Seconday fort:
- Trelle was captured 22 times for a total of 8 hours, algaros was captured 13 times (2.7h) and menirah 8 times (1.7h).
So you know, dont break too much things while you are into them, also dont paint them with that gay colours you have, you know we hate them.
You got beer on the fridges, its without alcohol like the one you like. Dwarf beers are 65% Vol.
