Bye bye Loonies

[Loonies]

No Title

They defined it to be an exploit to be on the leaderboard without being able to be attacked competitively by others on the leaderboard. Then they changed the leaderboard so that you can get as many medals as you want as long as you are less than GP. Thanks BHG! The medal limit for GP to legally get on the leaderboard is technically about 4200 as there will still be one guy that can competitively attack you. He has no medal though, so if he's not playing he'll soon fall off. Then anyone GP age on the leaderboard will be exploiting.

 

[Magnifico]

Say what now? Enlightenment age players can also attack GP age bases, and there's no shortage of those.

 

[Loonies]

There is only one EA player on the leaderboard. Everyone else is IA. Once he is gone, any GP player on the leaderboard will be guilty of the newly-minted exploit "appear on the leaderboard, but be unavailable for competitive play with other members of the leaderboard" from the OP.

 

[Ravenlord]

Loonies has more to worry about from EA bases once he upgrades to GA.

 

[Hunter Killer]

Yes but he will climb higher than they can reach him and then upgrade. I'm sure he's got it all figured out

 

[Ravenlord]

Loonies, everyone's talking about you like you're a superhero or genius or something. I mean, all you did was discover a way to beat a whole team of developers, tech weenies, game researchers, alpha (& presumably beta) testers with a huge corporation and budget backing them up. No big deal, right?!!

Loonies for President!

BHG will have to create leagues above Dynasty I. What is league at 10K medal? The God League .... victory bonus is paid out with crowns

 

[MadFury]

The leagues daily boat bonus would pay out in crowns in the early days of this game. The higher the league you were in, the higher the amount of crowns the boat would bring. Back then the French training times were instant (with the training blessing of course) and fusiliers could shoot over walls. I dare say the game was actually a blast to play back then. We'll never have that much fun in this game again!

 

[Hunter Killer]

Yes we need a new league starting at 3800 and a new quest that pays 3000 crowns when you reach it. Just like we had 1000 for reaching empire and 2000 for reaching dynasty.

The idea of crowns as league bonus is not bad. This may entice some players to buy crowns so they can become competitive and reach the higher leagues where they'll get crowns paid back. If I was BHG, I'd look into that option to see if that could boost revenue.

 

[Nathan Win]

Too bad I wasn't fast enough to enjoy all that "perks", sounds like a folklore now

 

[MadFury]

@nathan those days are practically a myth already. From all those guys whom we started the alliance with only 5 are left! And out of our current 50 all of which are level 100+ only about 15 remember those days. I'd say 10% of those early adopters to this game are left. All of them waiting to see if all the trouble was worth the wait when Alliance wars comes out.

 

[Nathan Win]

I agree with you Fury, Alliance wars is going to either make or break the game. Even with all the issues, I'm really enjoying this game. I hope it doesn't fizzle out, so I hope BHG and Nexon succeed with the upcoming updates.

 

[Funks]

Donald Trump did this, I blame him!

 

[Wicked Odie]

Why am I the only person that doesn't think loonies deserves to be on the leader boards? Loonies took advantage of multiple accounts to climb up there. There was no skill involved. There was no fighting people stronger than him, he got free wins from god knows how many accounts he and his friends made.

There was no strategy, there was no skill involved. How many of you in the top 10 believed that loonies deserved to be there? How many of you top 10 didn't work your butts off with strategy and hard work and dedication to get to where you were.

Loonies abused a broken system, that's it. I commend him for pointing it out. But don't think for a second he deserved to be there, not one bit. While BHG has some things to fix on their end it wasn't right.

 

[Loonies]

The absurdity of being on the leaderboard was the whole point Odie. But rather than address the systemic problems that allowed it, instead they chose to pretend it's all fine. It's no surprise then that alliance wars is so lame ... it's just further evidence that I'm not the problem, they are. Basically once you hit 3000 medals you've won the game ... It's just meaningless beyond that point.

 

[Loonies]

I’m back

 

[Persia]

What are the rewards like for VC?
