yea you say you do 7k+ fights so not a 5 minute player but you will be post nerf unless you can get enough satisfaction from sniping or taking GB positions all day long, maybe you can? wouldn't be enough for me, need something with a bit more of a challenge. will happily quit just as soon as I've had my fun watching the destruction.

Don't let the door hit you in the butt on the way out.
You seem to be ignoring the fact that there were hundreds of thousands of players that were in the game before GBG was introduced. To that point, there was enough to keep them engaged. Since then, new worlds have been added as well as three new eras. Your predictions of imminent doom are misguided. Unidimensional players may suffer but the vast majority of players will do just fine.King Flush

we'll see, if it comes in and doesn't become a complete train wreck I'll come back and say I was wrong but I don't see that being very likely, 3 new ages you mean the copy/paste space ages, hmm that sure got everybody excited right! there might have been many players playing before GBG and obviously some must have bought diamonds but I still say GBG has likely promoted a lot of the diamond spending in recent years and doubt post nerf GBG will promote the same level of spending, there is one way the nerf could end up being a good thing for the game - maybe off the back of it Inno might fire most of the developers and bring some fresh blood in who may just have a bit more of a clue, give me a bell Inno, don't come cheap but I'll sort the sh%$ outDon't let the door hit you in the butt on the way out.

Things are soooo slow on the map since the nerf.... we are holding 12 sectors at 159 waiting on the owner guilds to take something.... ten of them have been at 159 since yesterday morning.... The other guilds can't even take a sector..... We are in first by over 115,000 vp...lol

Oh no no, mate. Like this season, and the round of voting, I am sitting both out. I had already said my pieces in the past. I'd be the one who probably go "I told you so" after a few more "rounds" happen and no peep from Inno about this while this hits the live servers.so 2 more weeks the same people writing the same things in the beta forum about it
I'm sure they will keep playing the "for internal reasons" card. To me, and for others, all I ask is a little common courtesy and communication from them; and it has to be more than just the "your feedback is considered" (okay, it is, but can you tell me why and what my feedback has that stood out from the rest?) spiel that we all have been spoon fed onto.

?? you are holding 12 sectors with flags 159/160 and wondering why another guild is not attacking them ? Tsssssssssssssss

Yeah. That tactic is normally deployed to make the sector as unappealing as possible to Guilds you don’t want taking the sector. No one’s going to expect to be able to take the sector if the person sitting on it is already at 159/160, so the only reason to hit it is to either force the opponent to take it, or if you’re in a farming agreement and therefore know the Guild isn’t going to finish the sector until you’ve both finished farming

No, man, you've got your finger in the sky again.Uh, I think that "Someone" would be you. This is your guild, right? You are guild leadership, right? My bet is that these players have been "dead wood" as far as GBG is concerned, for a long time. They have been embraced because they are guild goods providers and do not take battles away from the top hitters. I'm thinkin' that practice is about to change.
And you're also a talker who doesn't keep his word

I think there is no point in this (not to close the provinces of neighbors). The map is dead, anyway. We just give them the opportunity to gain more VP. I don't know, maybe they will canning VP. Or will they find a way to put it in their GB
We do fewer and fewer fights every season. We will get 20% fewer fights this season compared to the seasone before last, although this time we got Guilds with a large number of players in the group

The map is a snapshot which makes it difficult to comment on battle progression. However, the same phenomenon that I observed in the top guild on Beta (top fighters are fighting less but many mid-range fighters seem to be fighting more) is happening in your guild also. Caveat: the available data shows total battles, it does not break out GBG only so variations in GvG activity could be distorting things.

VP will be the same in the copper league. The essence of GBG was in the amount of battles so far (before nerf) It's almost as dead a desert for you as it is for us now. The tiles are without locks, and no one claims them. It will be possible to assume that this feature is finally killed if everything goes the same way on live servers. However, we now know what the developers are trying to achieve. They are waiting for the distribution of guilds by league to change. Well, we'll wait too.

Agree with Owl the map looks okay from a layman’s point of view but anyone with a bit of knowledge will note at how slow everything must be moving with that many unlocked sectors that aren’t being hit, clearly the other guilds have been beckoned to take sectors so there can be something to take back but just looks completely tedious to me.
Pre nerf if all the other guilds are weak I’d imagine map would be similar but just moving a lot quicker.

We just fight and build camps where is needed, we leave sectors for everyone, thats what we did in the last 3 rounds with the nerf, we dont hold sectors either, when we are online we take what is possible and done for the day, we barely look at the map
)In the morning when I woke up almost everything was white/gray, they took sectors back now, some of them, it will happen this again and again, people still want fights and rewards, as our guild is interested in taking first place too in the league everytime.
Things slowed down again anyway, first days guilds were a bit more active.

I think Inno is manually adjusting the leagues compositions. If true they will see the need to change how guilds move to Diamond. It proves that small guilds do not fit in the 1K leagues.

All that nonsens about small guilds does not deserve and big guilds blablabla.
You better should speak about active guilds , cause not every big or bigger guild is that active.
This resemble pretty much the spoiler NinjAlin posted
(in red the number of members guild has)
