Greetings!

The WAR Dev team will be hosting a mass playtest tomorrow night, 11/11/2009, starting at 8:00 PM EST on the Public Test Server, Warpstone. We will be testing the newly reduced city siege timers and the values associated with advancing the city into stage two.

As has been the case with previous mass playtests, some lucky players will win either an Enslaved Manticore or Imperial Griffon mount! So come on out and join in the fun.

We'll see you on the PTS!

WAAAGH!

Will it be safe to assume that, after the "massive" (hundreds on hundreds) playtest is done, you will also be doing some more "average" playtests, to determine if the new values are appropriate for what the average server sees (something along the lines of 3 open instances; 1 that is full on both sides, one that is full ont he attacking side and sparse ont he defense, and one that is 1/2 full with attackers and no defenders)?
 

MSODAHWOP - Massively Singleplayer Online Diablo2 with an Auction House where you occasionally Wave to Other People. WoW is not the "world's most successful MMORPG", WoW is a "very successful game that calls itself an MMORPG". Once true MMORPG developers realize this, they will make games that can keep 500K people happy concurrently, rather than trying to reach for the 10million stars and crashing like an outtake of Asteroid.

I would like to post about this test announcement to represent a returning player who came back after the free trial for halloween and stayed long enough to like what he saw.   I was amazed when i came back that almost immediately after i came back that altdorf was under siege.  It was my first time so I had no clue what to do and was very suprised to receive more than a few offers to join a guild, which almost never happened before.

 

I would like to argue as a person who has as their highest main on order lvl 37 rr 30(almost 31 yay!) bright wizard alefric, that i have seen a disturbing trend that must be considered.   It is a tendency on both sides to perform actions that will benefit them the most in terms of renown points, experience, and influence.

 

I am very very happy with the changes to city siege and as I have admitted to others i have never played to the highest levels of tier 4 on any character because the realm vs. realm was not so easy to level in for those who did not have enormous amounts of free time.   Please do not take all feedback you recieve as gospel because I have learned from my previous experience playing on hibernia, gawaine as someone who got 3 characters to lvl 50 that what the players ask for is not always what the really want.   Trials of Atlantis.
