[Feedback] The Server Antag

[Hobolympic 1093]

I hate to rain on this united show of server solidarity, but how exactly does an 'antag boycott' work? Surely not showing up means that the Scourge wins every battle?

It's called not caring. Taking our capital? Okay, here you go, we'll be off for 4.0. Cya!

Pretty much. What's going to happen if they win every battle? We'll have to move map and leave this antag? The horror. If not *shrugs* will they stop our roleplay and lead us into more roleplay which we do not enjoy? I think not. Just a guess, I'm not part of the thing unless humans boycott it.

The Conclavian peoples will be joining the boycott of the antag.

Apparently, a harbinger has a spell that is equivalent of a 30x30x30 instakill spell.

 

how did this even get ******* into the server

 

for real

[VonEbs 1224]

I fully support this boycott.

Im tempted to join the antags just to have super spells and spam it everywhere

You know there is an issue when the the two most pvp oriented races quit pvping...

The probably summoned the newly buffed prophet that kills everyone within a certain radius upon its use.

 

Antagonists are not a player faction, let player factions tea-bag others. Not a server-special case antagonistic group that is made in hopes to take folks away from beating each other up. You won't win with this feedback thread though, because you aren't allowed to whine about how the antag plugin was made by folks who want to completely smash everyone against Shift and I's opposite understanding - yet when you complain that their Skype chat is flooded with hentai, you are all of a sudden a "bad person". I tried being intelligent and civil, understanding and compassionate - but folks like to hop on video games to cream others due to possibly a harsh IRL [possibly? you all explain to me if that isnt the case] so my attempt was futile.

Oh, and you were looking for the rosy goggles in terms of viewing Abresi. You totally forgot the fact that a high majority disliked the Undead abuse a la Lirinya to bring 1.0 into a close. AKA you are rinsing and repeating a terrible way of ending one map into the other. Shiftnative recognized this, I recognized this, seems like most of the server recognized this.

I was always told that we shouldn't get angry about the Antags being OP, because it was for the greater good.

 

But surely if every single person at a battle agrees that the Antag were OP, and that the experience wasn't fun then the Antags have failed in their goals?

Just to note, all nations are now boycotting the antag.

[Zezimus 1523]

Well, where to begin. I wouldn't have supported any kind of boycott lightly but after being told the antag plugin was going to be debuffed and then going to the battle today to find at least one of the spells able to make a one hit kill from full health, there's quite clearly something wrong here.

 

So as Josh stated, until there appears to be some serious changes, we (the dwarves) won't be going to any more of these events. In a time we're trying to improve dwarven RP, it simply isn't fun anymore to go to an event and find that all the players we've got online get slaughtered by what clearly are overpowered spells.

When six people can kill almost 40-50 there is an issue

 

Do you expect the Scourge to lose every battle?

In order to balance the two sides, you either have to heavily buff a small number of units or have the same number of units. Having the same number would require you to have half the server as Scourge troops, which simply isn't feasible. A Harbinger is not the equivalent of a standard warrior.

Arguing that six units shouldn't be able to take on sixty is flawed when that's the entire point: if they can't hold their own against you then they exist to be curbstomped. That being said, it does sound like someone turned the power dial the wrong way when attempting to balance them.

one of the admin should make a post see what there going to do about this

[hellfiazz 879]

We expect them to make it fun and not induce community-wide rage.
