UDO 361 Posted January 2, 2019 having to replace my couple of flags every 3 days so i dont wake up with no base is ridiculous , when is this getting fixed , Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nari 197 Posted January 2, 2019 Works for me and 3 other companies on our island. We check upkeep for each other. There has to be some limitation. Some People want a flag cap, others want flags gone entirely. I'm personally content with the system as is as long as they fix overlap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm personally content with the system as is as long as they fix overlap. they only show upkeep for 3 days we tried it over weekend with alliance, today they started to show as claimable again be careful they will need replacing every 3 days this was even with timer in minus numbers Edited January 2, 2019 by UDO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nari 197 Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Yea, but I'm pretty sure that is intended functionality. However: PVE Territory can only be claimed if the owner has not been active around the territory within the last 3 days. This is misleading. To remain active replace your flags.

mizunami 40 Posted January 2, 2019 see, i disagree with this, even some of my new flags are being contestable within placing, or within a coupel of hours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is certainly possible, but since they patched to add 3 day grace it has been working fine for our region and all companies in it. Many new arrivals have complained about NOT being able to claim our land. "What do I do? There's a timer." because we all replace our flags every 2-3 days.

mizunami 40 Posted January 2, 2019 yea but you shouldn't have to replace your flags, it should be reupping it if you are active in the area Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vaenix 131 Posted January 2, 2019 I've not experienced this issue whether it was with a flag placed before or after that initial patch. The issue we've had is with some people exploiting the overlap system or finding a flag that lets them attempt a claim regardless(it 9/10 fails). I'd say there is likely an exploit going on that some people know about and others don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise I could spam flags and beds and remain active in multiple regions even while solo. There has to be a limitation. What that limitation should be is up for debate.

There has to be a limitation. What that limitation should be is up for debate. but thats the point in the game, they even said they are trying to make a game thats ark/eve combined, so the claim things is a thing, while yes on pve it sucks, it is their design. hell i have a whole side of an island claimed, but i also removed 2 claims to let people live there, and pay me taxes. so it just needs to be regulated by the players. and yes, maybe they shoudl figure out a way to not just pop in, reset timer, and be done, maybe you have to spend significant time in the area?..who knows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achieves the same effect minus the tedious reclaiming (which itself is an issue simply due to Overlap. Overlap needs to be patched asap) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mizunami 40 Posted January 2, 2019 actually i think thats a fine solution, be INSIDE the claim flag area for 10 minuets, hell for me since some of mine overlap its easier. but still semi tedious cuz you gotta go through and check yoru flags, they NEED to add a way to check yoru own flags timers though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nari 197 Posted January 2, 2019 Yes! Currently the only people who can see upkeep are allies and land snatchers... Show us our own upkeep!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Overlap needs to be patched asap) a lot of the time u cannot replace the flags as neighbor are overlapping ? so its bullshit that this is the system intended for the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd give the grid and isle but I feel that my opinion on these heater matters will only invite grievers and exploits. The system isn't perfect but it's not entirely broken either. 1 minute ago, UDO said: this the system is not designed to have u replace flags every 3 days , it wouldnt be so bad but we cannot see our own timers ,if it was ntended then the timer would be shown for us on our own flags as well Speculation or do you have a source? Because the only thing to indicate those intentions is one line in the natch potes. I personally think it was just poor communication on their part (or a bandaid until working as intended can't be sure either way because there's nothing official on the matter.)
