Read moreI am also concerned with the change of not allowing sleeping characters to contest claims. I would hope that you could clarify the timers first at the very least. As it is, there are positive and negative timers and as far as I can tell, no one actually knows exactly how long you have before they can be contested on pve. Small groups can't realistically log on every few hours to make sure no one steals all the time they put into the game. As this is a core game mechanic I feel the time they have (including if there are time changes per flag) should be clearly visible to the company land owners. I'm also reading conflicting reports on how to reset the timers. Do you need to run to each flag or just log onto the zone? I have been logging on in the morning and at night before sleep and just running to the flags just to be sure. It's not fun... but would be worse losing our progress to an unclear mechanic. Then there is the overlapping claim flag issue as well, at least sleeping bodi...
I'm seeing if we can push up the negative timer fix for this very same build so people are able to tell clearly whether a claim is inactive or not. You need to physically be in the zone where the flag is, logging onto the server wouldn't be enough.
