No recourse for massive damage.

So I try to farm a little -in planet only- and the second I’m done with my fight 5 members of another clan are ready that second to jump me. Fine fine , but I think there needs to be a rep bonus for whoever gets attacked, the attacker chooses to fight, they should get any rep they earn, but folks not wanting to pvp shouldn’t get punished for 25hrs cause some a$$hole needs to strike out. This massive disconnect between tiers of players is turning me off from the game.
And yes I buy coins here and there, but I will not pay kix to rep a fleet that got damaged when I didn’t choose to fight.

welcome to the conflict part of the game. kixeye actually like bullies in game. More you attack others with no reason then better for them.

onlyfuzzy · 11 Oct 2017, 10:07PM

Yeah, um, cool? It’s one thing if a clan goes to war with mine and we are roughly equal strength. It another entirely when both their main (rank#7) and their feeder (rank#85) just decide to repeatedly farm a clan that is hundreds of ranks below them. If nothing else there should be a metric to discourage this type of asymmetrical war.

Sad but true: we're just content for the uber coiners. It's way more expensive to create a well done AI, than keeping the same players over the years with a "tug-of-war" system.

Got to escort your fleets.

What is the point of escorting a Fleet when the escorted Fleet is always attacked?? Honestly.

Thanks,

Agreed. Specially when encounter a bully alliance, they surround the fleet, and if they keep losing against the escort, they always have enough fleets to knock you down no matter what.

How are you meant to escort fleets when you just want to farm in-planet? You'd be risking the loss of two full fleets.

Mabari · 12 Oct 2017, 10:01AM

how are you left with 25hrs damage if youre at the stage where youre farming in planet...? redesign your ****, more guns no armour, its a farmer after all it should be naked asf

Well, there is that but really was more on the idea that your Fleet being escorted gets attacked when the point of escorting it is not, and if you attack with the escorted fleet then it will no longer be escorting a Fleet.

Then if you switch them around to say then say Fleet escorting is better off to always attack first losing escort again despite offensive interests for the attack.

9 out of 10 on 10 out of 10 times escorting is good for only one thing, lesser clicks needed to move more then on fleet to just an A-B movement configuration.

All combative stand-points say otherwise the worth of the separate Fleets makes the difference when not being escorted to any A-B movement configuration.

Yes, outnumbered is outnumbered, there isn't much to say or do about that. Rather you have 1k Fleets in escort or not. But any 1-1 ratio should not equal amount to what an outnumbered situation provides.

Thanks,

git gud

As others have said, there are currently methods to deal with this (aside from the obvious git gud).
-Jump. If a top 10 alliance is actually following you then you probably deserve it
-Drop/change tag. Perhaps join the feeder for that top alliance
-Escort fleets. Sometimes even just a cannon fodder fleet will allow your farmer to escape
-Don't put armor on farmers. If you are farming then you should be getting insta rep. No need for massive armor as it's just a liability at that point.
-Don't, I repeat DO NOT whine about getting hit. It gives the attacker exactly what they want, and only encourages it.

Maybe Sim City is more your speed?

Find the smallest player in the offending alliance and wear their **** out . If you get attacked, go base the little guy.

D*ckb*g move, but it's effective. I've seen many low-level players leave alliances because they get pummeled in a war. For the most part it's the big boys that are starting the fights and the little guys that get hurt.

However, there's also the flip side. If I see someone picking on a n00b in my alliance it tends to earn them a bookmark. Also, likely that little guys is an alt to one of the big boys.

You could also do the hit-and-jump. Hit the person back and jump as soon as your fleet makes it home. Most alliances aren't going to bother to follow someone

Of course it's a **** move. But so is hitting the farmer over and over.

Sim City is anyones speed given the speed can be changed at anytime, let alone say no speed still at a time, as long as your money is still good of course for the time.
