Battle

Since the server crashed again and we will all start out where we started out two times now, we will just continue the last thing. All, who still where standing, retreated into the gatehouse and the army was still approaching. I hope you agree with it, otherwise we will have to play the first part over and over again tonight.

Well, I log on and my character is at the cross after being pwned while my screen froze for like 5 mins. I wont be taking part if I don't get the chance to fight as my char was when the battle started, I already explained myself in the staff please thread. Apologies to the people I might let down by doing this, but if it still stands in the 'history' of the rp that my char got pwned out there whilst not moving or attacking then I see no other alternative.

Is it the number of players ig, or all the NPC's making the server crash?

I'd say its players and spells mostly

I disagree. We've handled many more players than this. I think it's the npcs being spawned.

Not just the NPCs being spawned, the ridiculous numbers being spawned for no reason over and over except for the GMs to be able to say "Lol we won it was easy"

The town is under siege, maybe you should play along instead you say "lol i can do portals and fight the npcs because I be uber mage/fighter" :wink:

Staff, please.

Cut back on the infintiy signs a little.

Also, dont assume we have to use portals rather than be using the holes YOU MADE.

But TB is kicking butt and taking names, so perhaps move the infinty back some. so there is like some camp we are pushing them to. Becasue spawning themin front of us is rather annoying.

Yes the server handles usually a lot more players then 76.

Is it more to do with the casting and fighting? 'Cause I'm guessing just npcs existing wouldn't impede the server greatly.

So when is the next wave going to start?

It all comes together. Lots of players, lots of NPCs, lots of action.

Just as a notice. On a regular base there are at all time 793 monsters on a map. 60 more or less don't make the big deal.

Those occuring errors occure rarely. But the increased load on the server increases the chance of such a error to happen.

All in all, I had a lot of fun with it. I think the players got smarter after each server crash and planned the battle better. It still was a good event, thanks!

After all you got a preview on the monsters you will face when the update to the new fighting system happens. ;-)

The staff decided that instead of giving little updates, they're going to knock you senseless with awesomeness. So the day the new fighting system comes out, there'll also be paperdolling to play with. And maybe a few more things...

Lolwut?

You want players to keep running away from NPCs while being attacked and not attack back?

I want to apologize to everyone for not being able to attend the first battle. I had quite a few RL issues to deal with, housing trouble, policemen, and a bit of confusion about the battle time.

I'm really sorry if I screwed you guys over or trampled on any role play. :(

Yeah dude, blood of dozens of fighter is on your hands...claws...yeah.
SHAME ON YOU (lol ;-P)

See ye on the next battle, the hack'n slasher lizard will follow you :D

(btw he died 4 times. 3 times in the war, with 3 rollbacks. he is the LIZARD OF PERSIA!)

Taliss,

Maybe you should designate a 'second in command" next time. I saw a lot of confusion and mismanagement of resources. People and mages running to and fro, it was terrible! I think if it wasn't for the server crashes, we would have lost.

If the battle turned badly, we couldn't even surrender to the Prince. :D

It would have been funny, if it wasn't so serious. :(
