Thread: Towerwar history (Atlantean)

  1. #1

    Towerwar history (Atlantean)

    I've been logging/tracking all towerwar activity on Atlantean since September 2007. There's been a lot of fighting since then for sure! Both ingame over the fields, and on forums before and after.

    A while ago, I was wondering just how much info I could possibly squeeze out from the three messages that I log; The "attacked", the "abandoned base" and the "victorious!" messages. The answer? A lot!

    Without further ado, I give you:
    Timelapse of Atlantean TowerWar Activity (September 2007 - December 2011) - available in FullHD!

    Out of all recorded history (September 2007 to early december 2011), the average SideXP is:
    Code:
       Omni: 9,156%
    Neutral: 4,118%
       Clan: 11,312%
    For the curious: Rimor Timelapse

    If you want more details on towerwar activity, please see towerwars.info

    Absolutely fascinating, as a new returner to the game what exactly happened in September 2009 which turned all the tower ownership to clan in less than a week?

    Im sure someone will tell you otherwise. But what happened was that earlier than year orbital strike went from being lethal to not so lethal and previously clan SB had been fixed so that it did break omni SB root.

    It took a few months for clan to get their act together and then clan took tl7 towers from omni and is still keeping it today.

    This isn't the only root cause, though. Omni had held a complete domination for so long that clans had gotten demoralized and either stopped trying or stopped playing. Thus a lot of Omni got bored of no PvP activity and also stopped playing. Then this change came about, gradually clan saw that they could win again (maybe a few came back - I personally did, even though I'm not much of a PvPer). Clans started winning, even more Omnis got demoralized and stopped trying or quit the game.

    It was a snowball effect on both sides of the timeline.

    That.
    Clans had a wild morale rally, while Omni spent the past few yrs getting fat and lazy chasing grief/meep crews. Add to that the serious exodus of Omni leadership, and the major powerhouse pvp orgs.
    A lot of ppl, myself included, were not willing to spend hours fighting for bases, endure those stupid 4 hour "gank me plox" tower flags, just to return the high bases to the same old orgs, while hoping for the ttl 3-4 crumbs. So...we have what we have today.

    You are saying the root cause of the 3 year omni dominance was not sb+os?

    welcome to 1-side only server reality.
    Rk-1 - clan domination
    Rk-2 - omni domination.

    Gratz FC!

    No, grats to the hundreds of clan, omni, and neutral players you can see listed in the THOUSANDS of battles in that video for flying across Rubi Ka to generate some PvP fun.

    Just because Mavritanic no longer has a ql 275 Focus doesn't mean those hundreds of players didn't enjoy themselves.

    This thread is about the players who are no longer around that we're reminded of in that video, and the players who still are who are reminded just how long we've been enjoying NW (since long before 2009 even).

    Put in a piece like that (thank you again Demodor) it shows what we've done over the years and how it takes two (sometimes three!) to tango.

    This thread isn't about you Mavri, so let the people who are dedicated to NW enjoy it.

    not me?

    FC just keep ruined HiLevel NotumWars (2-3 years domination is very destructive for game). So, as result of long domination we have some pathologic effects now.

    Yes, august 2009 was very hot on Atlantean, but it happen only after changes.

    Well, i can understand, if FC don't want (probably) change NW before new balance. But i not see official info about ANY developers movement in the NW. So, this situation will be keeped, and i can understand it only as - for them it is not a significant matter. So, if somebody want something new in the open-world mass PvP - we can't waiting it in the AO, and we can start check new projects.
