suppose you are in a group battle and all of a sodden there is a power cut and you will not have any choice but to afk(not intentionally duh! got no choice..) so there should be a icon to give up our control on the army and let AI take over
as it might have a chance to be misused there should be a price for it too like ,
the cost of art hero is wearing+100 gold(or something different) |

mine has a bit different rules like it costs and to have an button for it |
and to have an button for it
so, if there is a power cut, how does the player click that button? |
i have a UPS with backup only to shutdown my PC properly,
most of us will have UPS with more back up they might know when to press the button..
if they don't have UPS bad luck for them :( |
I find it more useful if you have to go for dinner or somthing and so you have to afk, good idea

ah ok, thanks for explaining... didn't realise that
oh, i was thinking...
you suggest a button which a lord gets after wearing / buying something, but it could also be a permanent button? and everytime you use it you pay an amount of gold?
could even be gradually more gold with every click
(1st time x, 2nd time 2x, 3rd time 4x, something like that)
and it could even give birth to a new guild, the Absence Guild or something XD
ok, sorry, got carried away a bit... (but still....) |

you'll have to pay for the whole battle ,
1st time in a day you'll have to pay 1x 2nd time 1.5x 3rd time 2.0x and goes on
it resets every 24 hours. |
Sounds ok for the most part. But, I doubt many players will use it. Since it costs them, it is only for players with a conscience. After all, after a power cut, it will take a couple of hours to get back in the game and by then, the penalty's gone. |
I found this by randomly checking old forum entries:
The Administration is developing an Artificial Intelligence which will take the player's place if he times out. You will have to give them some time.
The timeout time will still be 5 consecutive turns.
It was post 2008-05-24 10:05:23 by Arctic, I wonder what happened to these plans :O |
@I_own_you_all:
i hope it happens soon,
but there should be a penalty or something like that so i can't be misused.. |
misused
I wonder how that should be misused. The AI is always worse than the human brain. Aswell when the AI starts playing already many turns have passed, to the disadvantage of the afk-ler. I don't think any AI could make up for such a disadvantage.
but there should be a penalty or something
The luck penalty still will remain i think. Maybe even integrate the penalty directly to the fight where the player currently went afk.
Meaning, instead of having the troops just vanish, the player would be taken over by the AI and all units would receive -2 luck in this fight and for penalty duration afterwards. |
nice ideas , i owe you I_own_you_all |
already suggested and i really hope they make it ! |
i don't know y people care about -2 luck which last only 2 hrs.
don't u guys think getting no fsp is the worst penalty we get. we get xp without skill(free xp) which is very bad.
if AI plays we get skill points which removes the penalty. so i don't think they will bring it!! |

Why? The leaver still gets what he deserves, as before: nothing. |
