First impression

Having played my first round, there's a couple things I think should be addressed by NG.

Walkers seem to spawn inside objects/landscaping on some maps. I had invisible walkers coming out of the rusty cars on one map. Lost a lot of health because I didn't know they were there.

Similar to fighting freemen/raiders, the walkers totally ignore enemy teams. This seems unfair. Walkers should attack the nearest human regardless of which team they are on.

Also similar to fighting freemen, enemy players seem to randomly get extra attacks. I watched an enemy scout make two attacks in a row. As far as I know, there's no trait or special weapon that gives scouts two attacks. I'm 100% sure this was not a retaliation as well. During enemy turn, the scout attacked a walker and then ran across the map to attack my bruiser. It's been a known bug with the freemen and seems to apply to enemy human teams as well.

    Nice. I look dumb now. That explains it. Thanks. The normal raiders don't have it as far as I know so it didn't occur to me.


    One other minor bug. After completing the first two missions, the "enemy found" icons disappear. I have to back out and reenter to see them and then after beating one the others disappear.

    @LoneWanderer360 was it HD? Prowling past walker on way to hit you?

    No, it was a survivor, not a hero. I think the swift strike is most likely, it just didn't occur to me.

    I like the old GW format a lot better! It was exciting as we all played together. It’s pretty lonely playing alone. My entire guild agrees.

    I agree about having to back out and then come back in to battle enemy. Hard to remember all the specifics of first GW. Were we each limited in how many battles we could actually play? 20 sounds like a lot but is actually not enough considering you need to finish 2 before engaging the enemy. We can only complete 2 areas (6 enemies) and then we're done. I don't even feel like I've really engaged in a War. And it seems the levels are starting awfully high. Guilds have varying levels of players. The lower ones should be able to enjoy playing the war too, but I don't blame them if they have a why bother attitude because of the starting levels of the various paths.

    @meryn sounds like you need to wait for higher levels to be opened up before playing. Although agree that more attacks would be nice, I’m in the 30 attacks camp.
    With regards to low level players 1A always starts at your highest survivor a level and 5A is only +5 that. All 4 bonus levels are same level or +2.

    @Firekid thanks for the insight. I admit I've not had time to read every new detail of this war. But I do have a question again about the attacks: You get 30? Why?
    I'm only level 24, is that why I only have 20? If that's the case I'm not a fan of that. But I'll still play.
    Thanks again! :-)

    Lol no @meryn

    When he says "I'm in the 30 attacks camp" he's saying "I agree with the group of people that think 30 attacks would be the perfect number of attacks instead of just 20"

    Ok, agreed. 30 would be perfect. Hope they listen. :-)

    And BTW @Firekid I like the sounds of 30 also, but that would definitely mean I'm likely to get stuck with the blind level 40+ sanctuary missions every time. 

    Which sucks because I hate risking potential lost guild shop currency.

    What if instead of "attacks" being used as a "gas cost" we tried this instead...

    Guild war Missions cost gas just like just like any other mission BUT... you can still only complete 20 missions (or 30 or whatever is decided).

    Let's say you had 20 "Firekid Flags" and every time you successfully defeat a mission you stick a flag "defeated by Firekid".

    Essentially works the same as now but you can retry missions until you succeed as long as you got the gas?

    I recommend 2-gas just like Outposts, cheap, easy, no one should complain. Stress on the "should".

    I like the competition of this all and the fair play among guilds. Its strategy and timing. If have gas effects it comes down to again who has most gas and buys most gas. @ATLAS-Z I was surprised when I put up 555 points in my guild. It would be very nice to ofcourse see left over attacks even if it is over whole guild like now it is currently say 80/100. If can have 25 or 30 attacks per will be 125/125 or 150/150.
