Thread: Honor System is total Bull!

  1. #1

    Default Honor System is total Bull!

    I've had it with this honor system. How is it honorable to attack somebody, have all your troops wiped out, and still gain honor? And if defending, and you wipe out the attacking troops, but lose your troops and defenses in the battle you lose honor?
    What kind of garbage is that?
    Honor first off should only be given if you win the battle, and should be lost if you lose the battle. I'm tired of people with much smaller armies and much lower prestige attacking me, getting totally wiped out, and stealing my honor just because they took out a few of my troops and wall defenses! There is no way to defend yourself without losing something, and you should not lose honor after a successful defense!
    No matter whether it be attacking, or defending if you win the battle you should gain honor, and if you lose then you should lose honor. Period! No if's, and's, or but's!!!
    I know the Devs don't even bother to look at these suggestions, so it's not going to do a bit of good to even post this. But I am really getting sick of all the BS mechanics of this game!

    Hehe, I presume you build tons of traps, rolling logs, and rock falls?

    Please learn more about the game before crying on the forums.

    It makes a moderate amount of sense; that being each troops has a certain "value" attached to it in the form of honor. I do think it need to a be a bit more complex (i.e., affected by whether or not you WIN the battle), however I don't think it's completely screwed up. In fact, I believe this is one thing they actually got right in my book.

    Besides, if someone "steals" your honor, just pummel them. If someone is attacking you with garbage, then you should be able to wipe the floor with them. If they're a lot bigger then you, then well, maybe they don't want you to have that honor

    I do think, though, that a big player in this problem you're having is defensive mechanics. If the DT actually targeted CATAPULTS every once in a while, then this would be less of a problem. But since they tend to like to go off on workers...well, decide for yourself if this is a waste of manpower.

    I myself simply stock up on Archers' Towers (every space). If you can get to them, props to you; you deserve my honor.

    Hehe, that would be a bad idea, simply because you're not meant to have walls loaded with Rolling Logs, DTs, and Traps :P
    Archer's Towers are now meant to play quite a large part in defense, especially after the recent patch.

    If someone has enough time to type a long post and make a poll... they have the time to do some research.

    People need to learn to help themselves.

    Also the OP never asked to improve his play, all he did was bash the system due to not understanding it.

    If he actually tried to figure out why things are the way it is, I would be more than willing to help.

    Agreed. I voted yes before reading his post. You're loosing honor while defending? That's just a sign of a bad setup.

    You seem upset, breathe man it is going to be ok. It is just a number. Feel free to ignore it instead of ending up in the hospital with a heart attack.

    There are 2 numbers used in the game to rank players, Prestige and Honor. Both of them can be easily manipulated with cheesy tactics. If you feel like someone is using you to manipulate their or your honor feel free to either crush them or use the same strategy against them. Or just ignore it and go on enjoying the game regardless of what your honor or prestige is.

    Edited to add - I was looking for the option of "I think it is messed up but don't really care if it gets fixed or not." Especially since if it is changed people will find new ways to manipulate it.
