We have this problem in Silute too, please do something.

Klaipeda-Orsha server also has the same problem.
So all the guilds are forced to play for 15 minutes to kill each other without being able to destroy the tower.

There are ways to exploit this bug as well and a group of people already started exploiting it in Klaipeda-Orsha server.

Exploit scenarios :
-Let’s say there are guild A and guild B.

-Guild A and B enter the match.

-The match starts.

-Guild B immediately leaves the match after the match starts.

-Guild A can’t get any kill from guild B, and at the same time guild A can’t destroy guild B’s tower as well to end the match.

-Guild A is forced to stay for 15 minutes and there is no way for them to kill anyone from guild B because guild B already left the match. At the same time, guild A can’t also destroy the tower. Basically, guild A can’t fulfill all the requirements needed to win a match.

-When the match is over, both A and B would lose the match and lose points because the requirements to win a match aren’t met :

1. Destroy enemy’s tower. (we can’t even damage the tower)
2. If you can’t destroy the tower, you must have more kills. (the enemy already leaves the game before we can even get the chance to hit them)
3. If you can’t do both number 1 and 2, then you must have higher guild tower HP. (again, we can’t damage the tower, so how are we supposed to reduce the enemy’s tower so it would have less HP if we can’t even hit it?)

It doesn’t harm guild B because they don’t plan to participate in a match in the first place. Guild B just want their guild to appear in GvG ranking. However, this harms guild A who want to get a good match and want to get points from the match.

-Guild A and other guilds will keep losing points if they always get matched with guild B because guild B will keep doing this intentionally.

We already have some victims in Klaipeda-Orsha server because of this bug. Alpha, an Orsha guild, got matched against a guild called FleeTiPi. FleeTiPi left the match immediately and Alpha couldn’t take any kill nor take down FleeTiPi’s tower. After the match ended, both Alpha and FleeTiPi lost the match and lost points. Since then, FleeTiPi kept doing this thing to prevent other guilds (except a certain specific guild) from getting points. I forgot to record the match for proofs, but next time I’ll do it and update my post.

I hope IMC can fix this ASAP. All you need to do is make the guild tower destroyable again. A bunch of players already sent their tickets regarding this problem and hopefully IMC can act fast. @STAFF_Ines @STAFF_Amy @STAFF_John @STAFF_Ethan @STAFF_Max @GM_Francis

Same with Mein Hüerer, I dont GvG, not even in a guild.

guilds are forced to play for 15 minutes to kill each other without being able to destroy the tower.

It’s like Endless Eight winter edition.

Why do you sound surprised?
It’s a common knowledge that there’ll always be bugs after every maintenance in this game.

Same with Mein Hüerer, I dont GvG, not even in a guild.

You should be relieved then. You won’t experience the frustrations as much as I do.

Leave alone the fps, even with good fps and stuff, there are other things that would ruin your gvg experience such as crashing in the middle of the match or some skills that can cause other ppl get stuck during the match, and even crash the whole channel.

My guild has participated in hundreds of GvG matches and you can imagine how many times we have to deal with all those crap going on during GvG. Most of our losses are caused by those stuff. Bring 15 ppl in, and the next few minutes later, only 7-12 ppl left while the match is still going.

I don’t know why you guys keep tolerating this crap. Other MMOs can do 300 players mass PVP without crashing. TOS can’t even handle a simple 30 player battle.

We sacrificed ourselves to give these proofs.

1st screenshot shows that both teams lost the game without a single kill and without any damage to the tower.
However, the 2nd screenshot shows that we did inflict damage to the tower (you can see the red and white numbers), but the tower’s HP is not reduced.

These are the videos that I took from our match earlier against FleeTiPi.

The first video shows that we couldn’t destroy their tower at all even though we saw some damage against the tower. However, the damage weren’t normal. We’re supposed to be able to inflict only 1 damage against the tower, but this time we can inflict thousands of damage, but of course the tower’s HP didn’t get reduced.

The second video shows the result of the match. Both teams lost.

imc please fix your mess.

some people are starting to join gvg with their alt-guild, tagging the big guilds in a match and then leave the mach.

that results in guilds being dragged into a 15min match where BOTH participants LOSE.

@STAFF_Amy @STAFF_Max @STAFF_Ines @STAFF_Ethan @STAFF_John @GM_Francis @GM_Sebastian

fix your mess before gvg is getting boring for everybody and even more people are leaving.

edit:
please implement a system with a slight delay or something and prevent the guild-masters from logging out to “reject” / evade the matches.
that is what messes gvg up the most on fedimian because some little guilds have “agreements” to dodge certain opponents.

getting rejected by that method 7 times in a row in one day and waiting almost 1 hour for one match is kinda annoying.

if one guild logs out completely during a gvg-match, they should get a loss and the other guild should NOT get a loss at least (or just no points deducted)
