Super speed fort taking,

UmarilsStillHere · 05-30-2009, 01:12 PM

Ive noticed this recently and Ive decided I dont realy like it, It seems now that forts capture only a few seconds after the flag has been touched (in most cases)

Eg,

Aggers yesterday we broke the gate, moved into the fort, started fighting, someone clicked the flag a very short time later so short we were infact still fighting the Alsius inside the fort changed to Syrtis, meaning the Alsius players were trapped inside, because of lazyness or whatever other reasons the bulk of the Syrtis group was still outside the fort, by this point there were very few Als/Syrtis left in the fort soon enough a Alsius player clicked the flag and very soon, (less time than 3-4 of my hits) the fort changed to Alsius, dooming the 2-3 Syrtis left inside.

I guess this is intended, maybe to speed up war or whatever, but I have decided that I prefer the old version, its just to fast now,

Anyone else have an opinion?

Yup I personally think the capture is way too fast now

well they did speed it up, according to the changelog its 30 secs for forts now, 1 min for castle, but from your description it sounds much less than 30 secs, maybe its the same bug with kockdowns, where the duration is always shorter or something.
