• Goodbye 8th Year Event Goals Fix
    A fix is now live. An additional goal, Earn 5 Stars, has been added. Completing this will grant the additional 500 RP to complete the reward track.

Here is what I love about the force quit fix

I want to tell you guys how I look at it. I don't want to complain but to tell you my opinion.

They got rid of force close, so defense means something again. Great, that's definitely an improvement. However, I believe that Nexon should have overhauled the medal system before coming out with this update.

I think loosing 39 medals versus gaining 1 medal is too unbalanced and is going to felt by a lot of players after this update, me including. It's hard to gain medals already when 95% of the opponents are only worth 1 medal. One crash and you lost 39 makes it even worse.

A few months ago I had a huge issue with crashes as did a lot of other people. About every second attack would crash. Fortunately, Nexon has resolved this mostly and it doesn't happen very often (which I thank them), but it still does happen. So would this crash issue happen again as it did before it would mean under the current system about 3 crashes per hour of play which at -39 each would translate to about -100 per hour of play. With 1 hour of play per day that would mean -700 medals in a week. 700 medals is several months of work for me at 1 medal per attack. So my question is do you really believe that it is fair to lose 700 medals in a week to something that we don't have control over??? The only other choice we have is to not play and wait till the issue has been fixed which could take months (as is the case with the donate disappearing in chat ) effectively stopping our progress or take the hit and let months of work slide down the drain. Do you really think that is fair?

Medals are an integral part of this game. Some people care about them more and some less. But I believe this update treats higher level players unfairly. I personally went up in medals because of the league bonuses and for my alliance. But I'm not very high only at 2900+. A lot more players are higher than me.

I know some of you will say sucks to be you and we shouldn't care about the top 1%. But what I say to those people is show some mutual respect to other players that spend a lot of time and effort to get as far as they did and I know some spent a lot of money to get as far as they did, ultimately supporting Nexon and this game which affects all of us in some way or other.

Maybe once we get a big crash issue again with every second attack crashing you guys might understand my opinion.

I just hope Nexon reconsiders their current medal system and rehauls it to balance it out.

Yup, while I absolutely agree with you from the offensive aspect, you must include the number of medals you will gain from defence.

I've gained 0 medals since the update as in my league range people care more about medals and will not risk getting a defeat. If they get close to loosing they'll send out their Generals to at least get 1 star. And if I do it will be minimal most likely 1 medal which is nothing. No way will I gain 700 medals in a week to balance it out. Maybe 7 medals 1 month.

Just got a +39 medal victory from someone on defense!! He tried to TC snipe me and got bogged down and killed. Before this update we all know he would have force quit to avoid the medal loss. Not anymore baby!!!

At 2900 medals I've gotten 3 defense wins for over 10 medals it's great. However I will say this network disconnect error is pretty bad right now and needs to be fixed. Bad to intoduce a significant crash in parallel with this force quit fix(which I still think is the best part of the update).

You serious gamers have it all wrong. My Brits - the only ones above 1100 - have been hovering around 2500 for some months now. I 'next' until I find a goodly amount of medals, attack to get 3-5 stars (got 24 the other night), log off and get attacked, usually only lose 1 medal, then get 8-12 hrs of peace.
Life is good. :cool:

Oh and Gail - I thought swearing was not allowed on the forum!! You kiss your kids with that mouth?!!

Do you all get the impending Circle o' Death just before the game closes? Maybe, if we're quick enough & already have the medals, we can quickly end the game ?? Not sure how quickly the servers record the info though ......

I saw the Circle o Death today - had 2 stars already and actually had my finger hovering over the 'end battle' button but decided to wait. Glad I did - ended up getting 4 stars and 100% - with 3 secs to spare!! Phew!! (AND 22 medals!!)

So Konigsberg - is your issue with the new fix or your device? The new fix would only hurt you if you're constantly crashing, yeah? However, if you're FQ'ing then ....

But how is that different to the usual +1/-39 scenario at this level? The force quit fix has done nothing to change this so how are you worse off ?

You might actually get some medals now whereas before you wouldn't and you would lose resources!

What is it with people wanting to draw attention to themselves? First brandie wanted us to guess what he was - and now we have woo-nose wanting us to guess his true identity ......!!

Sheesh - there's too much ''look at me, look at me'' going on in the forum. And for pete's sake stick to the topic of a post !!!
