John Sheppard Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 Just now, Jorge said: NO.... NO? care to explain? or it's just NO coz you don't like it? like i said open the map and see... it states that clearly 1

I have been told this has been changed recently think the last patch .. and now hostility can be gained to 2359 leaving latest port battle 2200 Yes but the PB is not released until 17:00 the next day. And in the restart you lose 9% of the heat.
Jorge Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 I do not care what happens today, but you will not see me in those battles. Luck for those who participate, even our opponents.

Sorry but i was connected at 00:30 server time....no Salamanca PB at that time. But even if it were true, when there is a reset, the hostility drops by at least 9%, so you have to re-raise it to 100% after the reset, giving the defender time to use the tools that the game allows to lower The hostilities.

Jorge, I will try to make it as objektive as possible. You have full first rate fleets. So our only legal opportunity was about make you decide which port would be worth enough to bring your full fleet and hope which would only be half first. So all effort was about fighting with you today about the hostility from 90% to bring you in a situation were to choose (or not if you have two full fleets). So, yes the solution was not perfect but, and this is my very personal option, if you want us to choose one port and loose the other we also can cancel both because then you definitly will have a very big advantage. Because then all what was stratetic about was obsolet. So just think about if two pb's with a little advantage would be a more gentlemanlike solution than asking us to surely loose in one battle and giving away Conquest Marks as a present in the other one.

We don't want cancel PB, set both to 91% and let see if we can low hostilities. Its no a CM issue, is a PB mechanic disaster by the devs. They failed allowing this PB timers. The British have done what they should, put the hostilities to 100%, but for a failure of the devs has happened this shit. Congratulations dear Devs.

Congratulations dear Devs. I agree that going back for 90% would have been the better solution. Our advantage is that we "made it" to the two Battles and we "arranged it"without really making it. But now the maintanace is gone. I don't know what else we can do than making the best out of the situation and having two good battles .

Snaker Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 This 'Total War' thing is really going as planned huh? 2
Rouleur Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 If you have a limited port battle window its almost inevitable they are often at the same time. I agreed with Grungemunkey that Spain can choose a port to defend and we won't attack - randoms excepted 2

And in the restart you lose 9% of the heat. it doesn't work that way.. if you get 100% hostility before the 23:59 server time the port battle is set for next day at 21:59 (22 hours later) so therefore after a port battle is already SET there is no more hostility % therefore you can't loose %

Rouleur Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 This did not work until recently as you could not flip between 22:and 23:59 until they "fixed it" and created the new bug - we lost hostility as it did not work properly limiting the window to just 3 hours. 1

I am over 30 years old. Need my beauty sleep ... ;-) Seriously why is it possible? We thought the 100% will go down to 90% as usual and then we can bring it up to pb. I´m at the americas and its my time :-) ... and i know there are many people with live and also with insomnia at nights .-P

Konali89 Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 This thread turned into a he said , she said situation. Since it is a support thread i think thats not the idea behind it. I think staff should lock it, And when there is more info it will be unlocked again. This discussion serves no purpose. 1
