Upcoming Puckle Wars

[Bullet Force 151]

Quote

• Only the owner of a Settlement will be able to build offensive structures (mortars, cannons, and swivels) on their island, outside of Wartime.
• Other companies can build defensive structures (puckle) at any time.

So basically if you want to raid someone you go to their island and spam "defensive" puckles around their base in "peacetime" and then when you are ready you flip the switch and your defensive puckles become offensive. Hmm I can't see anyone doing this

Except you dont flip the " switch". There will be a delay before the war actual fighting and the declaration. 

During which time the island owner will demolish all your structures.

Unless the devs went full retard

Well owner of that Island will be able to destroy all your puckles during invulnerability period and u will have no way how to protect it so ... No It won´t work like u think it will.

So you just think your gonna build a bunch of puckles and then not defend them when the owner comes to destroy them OP has a point. The way the devs make it sound you can have a fully built ready to go base before a war even starts as long as you can sit there and defend it long enough for the war to happen.

I’m not sure about that. The owner might have restrictions on it. As let’s say 5 building structures (walls and foundations) per x amount of hours. This way your loot is safe. And you can’t disable someone’s defenses entirely. That the destroying will be something that will definitely be patched more, that’s certain.

You can´t harm owner of the Island in any way during invulnerability period. He can. How do u stop him from destroying your puckles when u can´t harm him?

You cant raid him during the invulnerability but you can still PVP . Structures that are built on islands that are not Settlements can be raided at any moment.

It is connected with unclaimed Islands. OP was talking about raiding Settlements. On nonSettlement Islands you can build everything including mortars anytime u want.

Well puckles will work during non-raid times as far as I understood the system. Players and structures are only protected within the radius of the settlement, which is not covering the whole island if I understood their post right. So you can build puckles and PvP outside of this radius, you just can not build offensive structures during non-raid times on that island.

Settlement is a whole Island.

I have no idea what to believe anymore. After reading that again it states that players cant be killed once the invul. time goes into affect but another says everything not on the settlement can be raided whenever soooo wtf lol. But to make it so people take no damage at all in a pvp game seems ridiculous. I can understand structurer but players ? Settlement owners must set a window of vulnerability, currently set to 9 hours, where their island is raidable. Outside of this window, players, structures and ships will not take damage from other players. 

I don't think the entire island falls under a settlement I think its only a portion depending on how many people you have etc. 

Structures that are built on islands that are not Settlements can be raided at any moment.

I think its pretty clear. 

• An island which has been claimed is now known as a Settlement

It means Settlement is a whole island.

End of war before war begins? 

When war begins you can place mortars / puckels / swivels / cannons in no time and are able to defend them so.

You really think a company would allow you have to anything on their island if you start spamming puckle guns around their bases?

[Percieval 1,067]

I’m starting to become really worried about this. It is way better if you can’t set the flag to company only. So much better, why wouldn’t they do it. That would solve a lot.

Because then noone else could build on your island at all ?

I think you misunderstood. 

[merlin66676 15]

It sounds like you would be building the puckles, but not setting them up until right before the war, but I could be wrong.
