War Results ranking now working!

[Adrian]

Hi Community,

Making the World Cup Ranking required some functionality that allowed us to fix the War Results ranking as well. Now you will be able to see how your realm is doing day by day or in the last month.

How you should read this numbers

The important value of this ranking is the War Performance. We think that keeping in mind this numbers will change a little bit the way players fight for their realm (as in the old times) and hopefully bring better battles and more interesting enemy behavior.

Even though some realms have more population than others, this numbers don't depend too much on it. For example Ignis in Ra just a bit more players than Alsius and they're doing great.

How often they are updated

The ranking is updated every day at 8 AM (GMT).

Anyone else find those results slightly... disturbing?

What VandaMan means:



This is from Horus btw.

[Comp]

perhaps another variable....Effectiveness of Population :P

[Adrian]

I know you can do better than that, c'mon. [About the feedback (I had to clear this up to avoid misunderstandings)]

[Mattdoesrock]

You can certainly tell who's been farming that day.

Good!

Only problem of this is that Alsius and Ignis have to deal with Syrtis Zerg. Wich means that if you are fighting 3/1 you'll probably die and lose the battle, without causing many enemy casualties. So, we need to find a way of taking into account population in the "War Performance" equation (Enemy Casualties / Own Casualties)

Regards!

Thank you for your feedback. I guess that this would lead into using the forts a bit more. They who have the fort, have the way to deal with more enemies. As I recall from my active playing days.

Realm population may act as server population, when we removed it (server population in the website) users started to enter more often and not when "there was enough population". Some numbers are risky to be shown, not just for the sake of being shown but because of the unnecesary trends they generate.

This ranking, showing how much you die in vain will surely make some players think twice about going far from the forts into the zerg.

We already have problems getting Syrtis to step outside the fort on Horus, don't encourage them to stay in Kailer .... they usually have the larger force anyway.

Alsius can't stay inside a fort, I think we're all claustrophobic.
Ignis can normally be convinced to come out and dance.
Syrtis stays inside and debates window treatments and color schemes.

Then it's a matter of changing some attitudes. Also, we owe balance measures for the war, but so far they never existed and I've been in some fights (Horus) recently that Alsius did very well, just because of teamplay.

Let's see how these numbers evolve. When I played before and this ranking was working, the population issue was there too and Alsius was the best realm in terms of war. I think that this ranking helped a lot and now we will see if it's true.

Faith?
