Thread: NPC Nerf dooms us ALL!

  1. #1

    Default NPC Nerf dooms us ALL!

    No, it dosen't. It's does suck that UMGE thinks Nerfs are more important then the REAL problems in the game, but it's easy to work around. There's a LOT of people doing this RIGHT NOW, nad not a thing UMGE is gona do to stop it...

    1. Capture more Flats
    2. Build and then Abandon Cities
    3. Presto! More NPC Farms
    4. Make enough NPC Farms so that after you pillage the last one on your "list" the first one is ready to be hit again.

    Congrats UMGE, you've made a game where there will be gazillions of NPC towns covering the entire map. There won't be an unopen flat anywhere thats not turned into a NPC. This'll happen on every server and UMGE will have to open several new Servers permonth just so a new player doesn't get a "I'm sorry, there is no place for you to build a city here" when they try to join in the game for the first time.

    Honestly now, who the heck is the person, who is in UMGE, doing these "knee-jerk" reactions to stuff??? If you fix A you better consider what happens to B and C and even D. THIS guy thinks "Fix A, thats all that matters" and now your stuck in a problem thats a REAL one and isn't going to get fixed easy. Consider what happens if the Abandon to turn into NPC is taken out...take it ALL the way to D this time and you'll see what I mean.

    Heh, people are like rats. They'll run through any hole or crack until the whole thing is taped shut. Expect to see a nerf in that direction soon.

    ...as I said, take it to D and see what happens. Think what that would effect and what THOSE would effect.

    I'd spell it out but I want to see if the comunity has more brains then UMGE, my bets on the players.

    It's just wierd to see a gaming community take a game and enjoy it that a company has made, and then try to break it and go against the company. I find it wierd. But I guess there's some sort of psychology involved with it all.

    I'm just here to play the game.

    No one is trying to break anything, we are just playing the game. But if Player A has tons of food and a massive army, I also need tons of food and a massive army. This goes for everyone on the server so we all end up playing by the same rules.

    The dev team seems to do a good job of listening to whining noobs, so at least that's something.

    It doesn't seem like they listened to you, so that's a hole in your argument.

    When was the last time you saw, in the middle of a Baseball game, an Official walk out in the 4th inning and say "OK, this team gets 5 strikes now per-up because the other team is ahead on runs", never right?

    UMGE caved in to the crying lower ranked players who thought that the better players had an advantage, because THEY weren't high enough in Rank to do it themselves. Now there's a nice Bulls-Eye on those same lower ranked people because THEY have resources we need and can't get from NPCs anymore.

    Congrats, you got JUST want you asked for, NOT what you wanted.
