The whole tower-taking system is utterly stupid. The fact that most towers are designed to have only one way to get to the flag room, the fact that guilds tend to pile all of their members inside that flag room, and the fact that, as mentioned, these members usually respawn right inside or 20 seconds away from the flag room completely destroys any real notion of strategy. The best anyone can do is charge straight in and hope they get lucky. Personally, I think it would be better to have multiple points in a tower that players would have to capture before the tower is taken. It would force the controlling guild to actually spread their guards out a bit (whoaa my god, what a concept) and would prevent them from being cheap, giving some of the lesser guilds an actual chance and more room for strategy.  

That's an actually decent idea :o  

I like it.

all of you stop whining. seriously. these threads are annoying and make you all sound like crying noobs.

Characterizing people who actually care about the mechanics and quality of the game as "crying noobs" is asinine, don't you think?

Here's an idea: if you have nothing of value to contribute to this topic don't even bother posting, because you sound like an idiot, frankly.  

This is a good idea.really would bring more strategyand skill into tower taking  

Solve it by not sucking at a game as simple as Graal, what the hell.

The problem here isn't an issue of player skill, it's an issue of poor design.

The fact is, the current tower-taking system is poorly thought out, not fun, not fair, and overall just really ******ed. I mean, seriously. Where's the fun of mindlessly charging the enemy over and over again until you capture the tower or just give up out of boredom?

Joseph, great idea and excellent insight.

Me gusta this idea.

York has 2 ways to get to flag. itd be nice if sardons had a second door in traproom to get to flag. maybe in one of the east corners of the room becuz theres no reason to go to east corner of traproom besides dying.

i have the right to post what i want. I was only saying that all the "boo-hoo towers are too hard. CoM n CXE have no life. Make towers easier" threads are REALLY annoying. No, towers arent hard, you just gotta be better.  

[QUOTE=Bin;138321]I'm so sick of the people saying "omg, just work hard and attack them!"

The creators of this game did not anticipate guilds like COM, CJ, CXE, and Takaii (Inspired and Serene) taking towers, treating their members like slaves, and working "shifts" to hold the tower 24/7. This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ join CoM for a day Bin. People don't tag because they are treated like "slaves" guilds need to be created and friendships need to be made. You are speaking of the guild that didn't get 5k until 13k. It is simply because it has become a guild of friends such as CXE and CJ as well. People attack and we loose all the time. Then the members log off/afk and we take back. No advantage just players of all time zones.

And I'd like to note that voyage does quite an excellent job taking forts. When we are holding we are always very aware you can dominate our fort. Gj is actually all I really can say.  

Stop complaining Bin.

You guys at Voyage have taken castle from CJ. You know that. So did Nerv. It's not that hard, you have to actually use your brains though.

Here's my master plan idea...

Step 1: Create a guild called Trollians and enable allies.
Step 2: Create sub guilds for Trollians.
Step 3: Recruit as many random people as you possibly can to them.
Step 4:

GENIUS!  

i made a thread with a way to make it so it would work...  

Ok where shall these new towers be placed?
