Faction allying Non Faction Guild

[slayer888]

Hi Devs,

When will it ever be fixed?

It seems its been mentioned for over 6 months and nothing have done.

Thanks.

I think everyone's rage is too focused on looking a gift horse in the mouth right now.

Completely agree.

If using an easy exploit can get around the intended ally restriction, either make it so you can ally other guilds faction or not anytime or for gods sake fix it. It's currently one of the most used exploits ingame.

So when is this gonna be fixed??

They've mentioned that this is not intended... but they have done NOTHING to fix it or post it as illegal exploit and will have the GM suspend the accounts on sight?

Come on, just put a statement and inform the GMs about these issues so that when we call the GM, the GM will check and know do what they're supposed to do.

Instead of saying "We're aware of the issues" but we are not gonna fix forever... doesnt improve gameplay and will just make more people get frustrated.

Again, I ASK, "WHEN WILL IT EVER BE FIXED?"

OR

WHEN WILL IT BE POSTED ON FOF, or whatever saying THIS IS ILLEGAL CAUSE AND GM WILL SUSPEND WHOEVER USING THIS EXPLOIT ON SIGHT.

IS IT SO HARD TO POST the ABOVE STATEMENT on the website and inform the GMs about this??????????????

I dont get the point! I am totally disappointed.

I understand you want to defend your current shard status quo... but it was posted and requested for the players to drop those alliances.

Comply if you will... and we had this argument before.

Main battles arent done in Faction areas... they are done for shard control... powerscrolls/stat scrolls.

You know it, I know it... every pvper/merchant knows it.


Main reasons I see this being an issue...
-the tamers would hate to go in stat loss?
-the para fields cast by the now un-allied non-faction mages would not be effective?
-benef acts would kick in.


FoF 27th March...
Why are faction guilds allowed to be allied with non faction guilds? This is a huge imbalance on the fighting field.


They shouldn’t be able to, this is a bug and will be squashed appropriately. If your faction guild is allied with a non-faction guild, please drop the alliance before we do.

You are correct thou... not bannable... but it is still fun to call a GM to drop the alliance.

Maybe if there was enough players page on such an exploiting behavior the GMs might actually drop thir guild alliance. Have you tried it yet?

You are wasting Gamemaster time because they have not been told to disband these alliances. If they were you will see a lot of angry posters on here, especially from Siege Perilous.

 

[Omnius]

disband lame alliances which defy intended game mechanics. this sort of behavior is worse than most of the exploit accusations we see in pvp today.

Can't get much clearer than that. This should be fixed and addressed. I realize that there's a push to polish Stygian Abyss, but I really hope that someone on the Dev team is keeping an eye on this.

 

[slayer888]

No, they DONT care about us.

They care to REPLY to what we need.

Then end up turn their back and ignore us again..

Its been like 3 to 6 months since Draconi posted that statement saying the blah blah blah alliance non faction and faction guild thing will be squashed probably...

Its a BUNCH OF BULL$HITS in my opinion... because

#1. The statement is not clear enough
#2. The statement doesnt make any sense because the in-game GMs ARE NOT DOING ANY FREAKING THING

So by saying that statement is like to lie to us... in another words, treating us like 3yrs old kids??

Come on Draconi, this is not what we want...

Can't we just have it posted on today's FOF and mentioning that "THIS IS AN EXPLOIT/BUG and is BANNABLE"

Just post this statement in the FOF, I am 99% sure, 100% of the guilds under this status will drop their alliance immediately.

Problem then is solved..

Stop dragging these kind of EASY TO FIX issues around...

Very disappointing. This is NOT a free MMORPG... we pay every month for this kind of service?? Come on...

Watch your blood pressure brother...

you gave it visibility... now just let nature take its...

I do believe this change will bug more people on Atlantic.

Nice job doing their defense... too bad Draconi is on it.

Good luck re-thinking a shard domination tactic.

Reminder: please fix this.
