    Important to point out this is for PlayStation formats! I have no idea what the dominant Alliances are on other systems! Also, in the Community tab on my Channel you can Vote for the type of video on a Thursday! Let your preference be known!

    I love the new pvp and this new mode, but it would definitely be more fun if there was actually competition between the factions. I think they will figure out a way to balance it out more eventually

      the idea of voting for the restrictions for the kingdom modifiers like what troops are restricted and which battle modifiers(mana potions/uber doomskulls ect) is fun, it just needs to be more competitive/balanced. I heard someone float the idea of percentage of victory based points system rather than cumulative points based system. i would happily switch without any penalty and if the teams were more balanced just to make things more interesting, i think they will figure out how to do it eventually

      @@honestrob BREAKING NEWS: they just nerfed the gold mark rate to 11-14 per citadel down from 50. You still get an extra 100-150 per week if you hit all 10 bonuses. IDK if it would be higher if you were in a smaller faction. even this change might not be final, there's a lot of tweaks going on so who knows, but as it stands now only 11-14 gold marks. It's still extra gold marks so i'm not complaining. It sounded like ALOT to get 500 extra per week, but realistically if you bought random book of deeds with all your gold marks, it would still take a whole month of gold marks to level up one kingdom from 15 to 20(assuming all books were the same color) which still doesn't sound that overpowered to me, it's just barely a manageable rate up from an impossibly slow unattainable rate like it's been and is now once again.

    It just makes sense. The past few days we've (TDO) been getting 50 gold marks from each citadel gained which results in hundreds over the week which is a lot more than you get from finishing 1st in a lesser active alliance. I think they're definitely going to change things so people will be forced to join different alliances as right now there's no reason why anyone wouldn't be in TDO. Despite the PVP battles being "harder", they're not that bad on the whole.

But once again Piss poor implementation. Maybe I am more upset about this because I for 20 years I was a software engineer, granted it was only on one platform and in one language, but if my team ever released patches/upgrades with as many issues that could have been prevented by just testing the code before releasing it, we would not of had jobs for long!!!

    Yeah, I switched after one day. Even in the less popular alliances, there are still thousands of players, many of which are super competitive with money to burn, so chasing the top 3 never mattered to me anyway. You mention the extra 450-500 gold marks a week, but you'd have to spend a lot of money in order to do that, no? We only get 6 free citadel sigils a day. I'd have to spend $1.99 each time I wanted more.

    • @honestrob
      @honestrob  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No that 400-500 Gold Marks is by using FREE Sigils after the Alliance wins the Citadel War, and as on PlayStation this will be every single one, that is what can be achieved every week without spending any money. Nice one on Takshaka!! Amazing troop!!
