PVP.

It's difficult to prevent. Finding an acceptable solution is difficult as each one has it's own exploits.

It's almost impossible to stop, it is frustrating but if you stick with it you'll eventually beat it as the only time it works is if they are online at the same time as you are trying to attack.

I really wish that we could score RP for PvP.
It has become somewhat counter productive to attack other players now.

Auto-click scripts aren't allowed so no-one will be using them! >:)

Just throwing in my 2cents : Put a cooldown on the attack button after a certain amount of hits on the same player target (just like the 50min cooldown on the fortress). It will stop not only the base locking, but also the taxi offenses (ex : after 10 hits on same target, 5min cooldown before you can re-attack it). With this solution, it won't be impossible to do base-locking / taxi offenses, but it will be really more difficult and that could be enough.

The problem is that it's not a script, it's an external soft. It just automates an action the user can do by himself, so you can't even detect/prove it, you can only have doubts.

Oh, and thank you for the loading screen bug in 17.4 patch :smile:. It's only been 2 years to correct a damn closing quote :smiley:

they will use 2 or 3 accounts cooldown cannot solve it.. maybe with ip lock same as lock we see when one player try to atack one account he has sub

My comment about no-one using 'auto-click' was followed by a devil smiley, indicating sarcasm. I know it that auto-click systems are heavily used by some players.

Hey Druid and Léo,
i think Sheosun idea is not so bad.
You only can be in 36+ lvl bases if your main is 26+, 42+ bases if main is 32+ or something like that.
That issue could be easyly find and inject into the game as the drop bubble at lvl18, there's could be a message preventin "the zone is upper your lvl please come back later"
We could easyly test it into a new version of pte

Cheers my friends sorry :)

I like the idea - but we don't make policy, just moderate the forums
