lol, a pro usa update...

[Jaroslav Kolesnik]

Will be surprised to see any surge in eRep activity

[Misho]

To not do anything about the number of regions and proceed with this change is exactly what would be expected by the eRepublik admin.

[Magnus Dux]

Just to clarify: campaigns that start before official tournament starting time (Day 2,625 00:00) and finish during tournament will not give any tokens?

[Tautas11]

Finally:)  Game destroying update.

[Majester]

I see Western Cape is still considered the historical capital of South Africa by eRep Labs even though it has never been -- its Pretoria in Gauteng -- Its a good thing this has only been pointed out since the first Gold Mine tournament and every atlas ever published.

[I am The Best23]

So it seems you completely ignored feedback from forum, because countries who have unfairly too many regions will be with big advantage again.

Hey its not our fault USA has 50 states in RL i see your point with this whole thing but i dont want to see USA with any less. maybe you can divide up smaller countries a little more but you dont want to have everyone the same that just doesn't happen it will never be perfectly fair. plus this isn't exactly an advantage to USA because if we have many rare resources then we will be attacked constantly by many countries. there is actually strategy for once in this game like it might be better for USA to have a neighbor ally take a rare resource then we will just rent it from them

[Mr. Indigo]

The game masters did not follow internal divisions of plenty of nations. The USA does have an advantage in the game, though it is not the only one.

 

And really, why not give equal conditions to everybody? How about 10 or 12 regions for each country? This is just one of many failings of the game.

Poland is divided into 16 voivodeships IRL and only 6 regions in-game.

[Charlotte Partheney]

I dont care anymore.

This event will be advantegous some countries like USA because admins dont bother to fix the imbalance.

Doesnt matter admins will do nothing,they think its fine for USA to be 15/15. While other countries stuck with far fewer regions like they have in RL. What an illogical management  

[hixaren2]

The final way to get resources is after the event ends, during the Bidding Phase. When all the Resource Tokens and Event Points have been spent, the remaining resources will be distributed to the remaining regions. The country with the lowest amount of Country Power will get the first picks, and this will be continued until every region has a resource.

 

 

 

How will this happen? Does the lowest ranked country get to choose all it's bonuses at once? Or does one country choose 1 resource and then the next country 1 etc?

Romania have 41 regions in RL we call them "Judete" but in game we have only 9 regions. So your argument=0

@EREP LABS

 

Wait the sec, from the screenshots it seems like single Resource Token is used to "secure" one region to any rescource you want (based on the list and are there any of rescoursces of this type in the game). Does it mean that we should sit on 0:00 erep time to fastlock important rescources? Strong countries will be able to have like 50+ of them, will the speed of aquiring them point of whole event?

 

This news is bad. Really really bad. I have bunch of basic questions that this doesnt cover. :/ I hope we will have clear idea what we are getting into everything before the event starts :/

You can make the lists at any time before the event starts, so you don't need to be online 0:00 eRep time. Feel free to ask those basic questions!

 

What about individual rewards? 

No individual rewards on this event.

 

Just to clarify: campaigns that start before official tournament starting time (Day 2,625 00:00) and finish during tournament will not give any tokens?

Correct, the campaign has to start after the event has started.

We'll share more information on the Bidding Phase later and explain things better. Lower ranked country only has an advantage if they bid the same amount of Event Points as another country.

 

You can imagine it as an auction, except that bidding the same amount is also possible. In these cases the "weaker" country on Country Power has the priority.

 

So let's say Hungary has a big amount of Country Power, Slovenia has a bit smaller Country Power and Switzerland has even smaller. If Hungary bids the most EP on one of their regions, Hungary gets the first pick. If all 3 countries bid the same amount on one of their regions, Switzerland gets the first pick.

Okey, As I understad it there will be some sort of draft for the resources that aren't sold during the auktions. How will that work? 

[Zarmael]

So you will not do anything about the eUSA advantage?

[CFovetS]

This is going to have the opposite impact of what was intended...

 

Yeah, there are tons of battles. But they are all worthless in the grand scheme of things.

Plus you never took into consideration the sheer volume of gold this is dumping into the economy,

Do you even comprehend how much gold is being dumped into the game to the BH and CH medals for 100+ concurrent battles? And the damage totals arent even high in 95% of them. Plus throw in RH medals and the economy is in an even worse position now. Congrats... But i'm not surprised at all.

[NoOnexRO]

In how much time will you plan to reshuffle the resources with a similar competition?

A year or maybe 6 months?

People are acting as it's the apocalypse and all the resource assignments are for eternity.

If you ask me it's too much fuss for a bad change that's not even final.

The Netherlands has 12 regions in RL but in the game it has like 4.

[raoulito]

For God's sake and for once in your lifetime can you make a tournament without chicken coming in the way?

Get a grip on yourselves

[ImmortalChe]

Heavent you tought about to hire a real Java programers and to buy more better servers? Or you think that your stupid ideas will bring this, what you call a game,a peace of shit to life. I don't think so. The game is already dead this is a some kind of bad social network with credit card payment posibility for better look of our selfs and for you to get your sallaryes.  Please remove from login page "Free game" tekst it is a lie. There is nothing free in this POS anymore.
