Rejected Fort Battles Idea

This idea has been reviewed and rejected, as it does not align with our current design, technical limits, or game balance. We appreciate the suggestion, and while there are no plans to implement it now.

This is just a thought, as per the topic suggestion -

It has been my experience that we normally have 1 battle per day on the server I mainly play on ( Ozarks ) Normally, this battle takes place around the same time everyday, give or take an hour. Since we have players in many diff time zones, the players who are in a time zone where it is night time when this happens, either have to set an alarm and wake up or always be an off-liner. Which, as we all know is inconvenient and a gamble; I am sure this is a topic that has been beat to death over the years, yet it still seems to remain an issue.

Seeing Henry dig the Awesomia battles, got me thinking; What if it happened more frequently, at diff times everyday, for example, thus allowing all players a chance to participate online ?

Just an " Idea " - perhaps a " Brainfart " who knows, but there it is. Thanks for reading :)
 
Not that i care that much about the team but they barely manage to do things like they are now, imagine if they would have to dig random awesomia's on all world.
The main thing is to talk to the battle leaders on that world and organize more battles if you are interested in having different times. My guess is that there are not enough players that would want to participate/lead so that is why you have only 1 battle. Anyway you are lucky you still have 1 battle a day opposed to other dead worlds where you are lucky to have a couple every week.

Back in "the good old days" every FF had random drops for the winning side. That was discontinued. Funny how FF participation dropped off at the same time.

some may say that this feature was abused, and that's why it was discontinued.
I don't know if you were a part of the so called "cash battles" about 15 years ago? I remember how in World 9 there was a list of players, and it was defined - who goes to attack, who goes to defense. who brings cash and how much. who dies, and who survives. and then they would report what they got from the battle. "shiny" items, that couldn't be obtained any other way (now many have dozens of those in their inventory). and based on that, their role would change for the next battle. they needed to bring cash and die so someone else would get a named item. and after a while, everyone on the list got something...
it's funny how organized and cooperative 200 players could get just for a chance that one or two would get a Jesse James' Schofield or Tashunka's Tomahawk... can you imagine that today?
 
How about having two different battles on the same day to accommodate both time zones?

Since we’ve migrated to the Ozarks, we’re generally available to play battles in the evening between 21:00–22:00, sometimes even 23:00. Turkish players likely share a similar schedule with Greece, so they would probably be available during this time as well.

However, this timing is likely challenging for players in the US. To address that, we could add morning battles specifically for US players.

While Awesomia sounds appealing, it’s not very practical. If you miss a battle because all spots are taken, having to wait for the next Awesomia dig can be frustrating, especially since there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to participate.

While I understand your frustration, this isn’t really a forum issue, it’s something that should be discussed directly with the alliances in the world. We’re all open to communication and cooperation, but posting on the forum won’t help resolve it. In fact, asking for these things here only shows that Ozarks is not a very cooperative world.

I hear ya'

Due to migrants in Ozarks; however, we have started a few talks on 2 battles per day. That would require the migrants to also cooperate with the digs and leads.

The forum is a legitimate place to discuss this, just not this channel—for a world specific discussion, best to use a world specific channel:

World Ozarks

Be a savage and do some damage!

as far as your question goes and the ones who felt they needed to bash it, this is just and idea and "brainfart" moment. honestly, not alot will join these without incentive, the exp points just arent there. but i get what your saying, i dont like the ff times for the main. however ever world will tell you they took a vote and that time frame is what won, blah blah blah
 
settle down guys ! :D brainfart.....as I said. but ty all for the input. I had noticed a few players making the comment, about how they can never be online for the battles , so thought I would bring it up is all :) Have fun & happy egg hunting !
