That, by definition, makes it not a troll flip fair enough, but from my perspective 4 were in the battle with me, and when i asked the screen they said they had no one in battle, when i went to the French TS the diplo online said he had no idea there even was a PB at Wilmington, and the Swedish diplo said that they had not gone and it was a french PB.

This, all this drama for some PB's that aren't that great compared to regular OW battle, except they magically force a region to change hands depending on the result. We should clearly find out why players are so involved in the PB's. Is it because of the RVR impact? The 25 vs 25 first rate brawl they provide? If it is the RVR effect, we can easily solve this by changing the RVR focus from PB's to something else. I had expected the hostility generation to be the real driving force for PVP, not just a mandatory PVE grinding operation to unlock the revered PB, that stir so much shit lately. Plenty of player made solution to solve the night flips where made, but the devs already have all the tools and mechanic needed to develop a nice RVR system ( flags, PVP zones, hostility, AI fleets, delimited region.) IMO, they should keep the hostility system, remove the PVE hostility mission completely and use those existing mechanics to good effect and promote OW PVP and RVR. Edited March 13, 2017 by Serk 1

You could always generate hostility by attacking the AI fleets in the area, but hopefully at a very low pace in order not to replace PVP, as is happening now, and to prevent flipping a region in a few hours. Defender would then be forced to lower hostility, but mostly with PVP since there are close to no enemy AI fleets in home waters. This is also why I would remove PB's completely (yes, that surely mean the desmise of the poor mortar brig, but frigates and 3rd and 2bd rate could find more use). Defender is then forced to show up, or else he loses the region once hostility reach 100%, instead of betting on a single battle and a solid screen. Here's a small summary I've posted a few days ago, using already available mechanics instead of reinventing the game. Feel free to comment. It is a bit similar to what Wraith suggested in one of his post. P.S. If we really want to keep PVE hostility mission, the rate must be considerably lowered to make it a few days affair instead of a few hours. All time zones could be involved this way.

Corona Lisa Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 No responds to topics like those are the real problem Idk why but people just want to avoid or are not interested in fights outside of PBs, except they have a big advantage (which in the end is boring for all). Maybe most play PBs to get a boner when they watch at the map and not for getting good fights. If people wanted to get good fights it would be so easy to organize, but most just dont want to. This pussy community is destroying the game, not the devs or retarded nightflips. 2
