Title: EU Community Rep Post Jan-March Term
Post by: Herishey on February 28, 2018, 06:15:33 pm
Hi everybody! Thanks for electing me as CR (again), I am honored to represent such a loving community (not sarcasm)! My new term ends at the end of August so I have quite a bit of time to continue doing the roll in the way I perceive it should be, but more importantly how do you think it should be done and what would you like to get out of this?

Most of my aims will be quite similar as they were generalised to the roles;

My Aims
1. Tackle any disputes on FSE (regimental, events, etc).
2. Be a voice and an ear to/for the people (a lot of you have me on Steam so if you have something to say you don't want to say here give me a shout).
3. Help get event organisers the boards they need to help run their events.
4. Possibly start hosting a monthly 'fun' tournament, things such as a partazani deathmatch or a last man standing tournament.
5. Keep the community up-to-date on what is going on within the EU community.
[close]

If you want to know what's going on in the EU Community feel free to check out a list here (https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=38848.0).

As Windflower said; 'I'm more curious of what the community wants at this time, anything you guys wanna recommend for me to do, or any ideas on how to improve the community leave your thoughts.'

I'll also try to do regular polls on this thread.

Might just the disconnect due to my absence, but it feels like everyone just runs to the right, past each other, then everyone turns and they actually fight. I think this could be fixed by A: adjusting spawns and B: smaller Maps

Groupfighting's spawns are made so that the teams don't line up directly against each other, instead the left side of the spawns is in line with the enemies spawn, but the rest isn't, drawing cos im autist england

part of the issue with the spawning mechanic in the game is that everyone spawns at that point and to the side of it.(and possible rear)  when the first row is done, it goes behind the the first row and makes another row to the side. 

of course, you have to accommodate that when you make a map, so people don't spawn behind buildings, fences, map edge etc.   

you can try and line up the spawns so that they line up right, but that isn't always easy depending on the map.

i like spawning in 50-100 bots per team when i make maps to see where the game is spawning people, and move the spawns accordingly.

I'll ask Bob to see if this is something he can look into, not going to get more smaller maps though as we do sometimes still get a full server so that'd be chaos.

You have lets say 60 people, they get split up into two teams of 30 who then gf each other, the team that losses is eliminated with all its players, the the remaining 30 is split up into two teams of which the losing team is eliminated, and so on untill it gets to the final which will be a 1v1.

It's a popularity contest, you have 2 sides to the forums, the normal side and the melee side, it seems that the melee side almost influences the normal side, CR is a popularity contest and Herishey being from the melee "community" it was almost inevitable he was going to win.
Anywho, congratulations Herishey for your second term, hope you make progress.

Let's be real with each-other here, a good proportion of the forums is built up of active melee community members/regiments, while the normal side of things is outnumbered by the competitive/melee community, and there will be no new large influx of forum members until BCoF.

I'm not here to have a debate, best of luck Herishey.

Yes the casual community is outnumbered, but not by forum users but by players in general by a fucking landslide. Besides, whatever the competitive community has to say, the casual one can only benefit from.

Sorry that we want players who want whats best for the whole community, competitive or not. Not more people who's only contribution to this community is the fucking politics thread.

  i still play NW. not as often as i would like, but i still play.  I occasionally go to events if there is a group i want to go with or if the event is good.   Sadly the latter is becoming more rare imo.

Post by: John Price on June 01, 2018, 01:27:36 am
Oh don't get me wrong Thunder, I have no doubt that you probably do, I meant more in a regular basis. With actual communities. The NA Scene is also pretty much dead at this point. Like only a few events and only a few competitive regiments are left.

Hence why we would like someone who actually knows what needs to be done as a CR. The only regiment I have seen Riddlez join in the last like 3 years was actually 18e, he left pretty soon after then I never saw him again.

I'll ask Bob to see if this is something he can look into, not going to get more smaller maps though as we do sometimes still get a full server so that'd be chaos.

Just working on getting a map for the last man standing tournament then I plan to host that in either September or October, not sure when yet. The concept will be 3 rounds in a deathmatch with only one life. Last man standing wins (1st round survivor will be 1st, 2nd round survivor 2nd and 3rd round survivor 3rd).

After that I'll work on an obstacle course whilst hopefully hosting some mixed sword and bayo events on the side.

If anyone else has any other event suggestions feel free to hit me up.

Post by: Tardet on January 04, 2019, 10:31:34 am
I looked back and realized that you were a CR during the release of the second patch. For the first one, both the work prior to the release and the release itself were under Retamar's term if I read the dates correctly.

I wonder if the CRs (even the one before you) had any sort of involvement in the patch development because if you look at it from a community perspective, the patch is supposed to bring changes / new features improving the experience of the community players, so in order for it to match the community expectations, isn't it best to get the opinion of the community representative?

Maybe it has already been explained before and if this is the case, then I apologize. But if not, I would be interested to know a bit more about it. I doubt being the only one sharing that feeling but sometimes, the developers give this impression (not only on NW or Warband) to take decisions from their ivory tower, and because they often don't really play the game actively, especially not in a competitive aspect, their decisions end-up being completely disconnected from the reality.

No hate towards the devs, even if it ends up being a shared opinion, that doesn't mean its right, but I'm just curious.
Title: Re: EU Community Rep Post Jan-March Term
Post by: Herishey on January 04, 2019, 10:35:21 am
I did certainly make suggestions during the patch coming out and had a few polls to see the general consensus of the community. But I'd have done that regardless of being CR or not.

I did certainly make suggestions during the patch coming out and had a few polls to see the general consensus of the community. But I'd have done that regardless of being CR or not.

I remember seeing these polls and discussions prior to the patch, I was myself a moderator at the time or just a bit before so I remember seeing some of the (really) early discussions on the FSE admin board. But do you feel these discussions had an impact on the actual work done on the patch?

Also to me its completely different to make a suggestion as an experienced, relevant and active player, and as a CR. In the first case, you speak on your own behalf, while in the second you effectively represents the expectations of the community, hence my question.
Title: Re: EU Community Rep Post Jan-March Term

You might want to be careful with using such a name.

Both patches were heavily influenced on what people were wanting out of them.  A lot of the stuff we added were things people asked for in the past.  Some new stuff was what we thought players would like.  We used player feedback in the various threads/messages to help tweak balancing on top of it being tested with other testers.  Obviously something like balance is very subjective, and no matter what you do, you are going to make some people unhappy.(and conversely, happy)  There were other bugs some people wanted us to leave in rather than remove, that made some people unhappy.  I'm not going to argue the game is perfect, but i personally think the game is in a better spot that it was before either patch.   Anyone can feel free to disagree. 

The idea of the first patch(server only) wasn't any CR driven thing.  It was something Vince and I discussed, and eventually started working on.  I spent a lot of time cataloging player bug reports, suggestions, and other stuff before we made it public.(the google doc got pretty long)  When it went from being a server side only patch to a full patch, we decided to add a lot more.  I decided to take my own stuff that i made for the official servers and add it in.  Other things like medics(maybe some people around here remember hitting people with construction hammers to heal) which i made the official servers, were made by vince for the patch.   Most of the bugs we fixed in either patch were bugs players reported.  I know it is hard to for someone who was not actively working on either patch to know how much impact people's opinions/suggestions had.  Most people just see the final result and make conclusions from that without knowing the path that it took to get there. 

Now, if you want to be technical, i was not an official  dev for the first patch, and was only a dev when the 2nd patch was released, but not when it was worked on that winter.  At the time i was just one of the Senior Admins/mod.

Thanks for the input Thunder.

I obviously only speak from my perspective here but I feel a patch is always positive in the sense that it brings a bit of life back to an old game. Eventually, I wish there had been more patches, earlier on, but spending your time complaining ain't changing much. We wanted some changes, we got given some. Adding factions, units and other 'casual' features is always a plus and personally, that's something which keeps me interested in playing such games. It was also nice to see that the 'competitive side' of NW also got its own features with the 'competitive mod' keeping score intact, etc ..

You are also right in saying that every 'balance' is very subjective and that you will always have people complaining, no matter what. In my opinion, a patch/update, on top of bringing the aforementioned features, should also focus on making the game as fair as possible, meta-wise. The game isn't perfect but even if you look way back in the past, I feel it has always been in a 'decent' state and only required a few tweaks here and there. NW mechanisms can be glitchy/buggy but it's also what made the game's success and kept an active player base so many years after its release, and also a reason why - as you mentioned it once again - certain players were not necessarily in favour of removing every single one of them. Because some became something commonly accepted by a vast majority and only required a certain skill to be mastered, therefore being accessible to everyone taking the time to understand them.

But in certain cases, I feel having a real community input is sometimes required in order to pursue changes which are in favour of the majority. For instance, talking with most of the leaders of the cavalry community recently, I feel that the consequences of the changes made on the heavy cavalry have been somewhat underestimated by the development team. Of course, if you look at all the cavalry regiments playing on NW, most will argue that they do not care in which directions the patch goes cavalry-wise, because most of them don't understand the impact it can have and don't understand the game mechanics deeply enough to figure out what it really changes.

But for the regiments playing in cavalry leagues and tournaments (the 'competitive' cav community) and which is the one being the most impacted by the patch because they are the ones who spend the most time trying to understand/master the game mechanism, such changes can make a whole difference and turn a 'balanced' situation into a completely unfair one, because 99% of them are hussar regiments and from their perspective, the latest patch arguably made heavy cavalry overpowered.

Edit: I am not trying to imply that because of 99% of the cavalry competitive is hussar based, you have to favour them. I am just trying to suggest the idea that to make sure an update doesn't perturb a complicated balance, it's important to understand the situation prior to its release but also which groups it is going to affect. Because by tweaking heavy cav in order to make it 'fairer' from your perspective, you end up making it the oppositive for a large part of the community.
