Please fix battle servers for continuous play ASAP

[Arctanas]

We appreciate the work you guys have done to give us battle servers, but the battle servers in OCE (and I assume other regions too) keep crashing at the end which causes us to be stuck on the same factions and map forever. Also, often after a match the battle server changes to another game mode so we're waiting like 10-15 mins for the other mode to finish before it goes back to battle. Can we please get a fix for battle ASAP, either:

1. Fix the crashing at the end so it can move onto the next maps/factions
2. Make a permanent battle server so it stops switching between game modes with no battle server up at times
3. Increase round limit above Bo5 so the games last considerably longer

We're really enjoying it so far but this issue makes it really frustrating and stops some from playing more than a couple matches. Would be much appreciated, thanks.

EDIT: Rewrote thread to include the points others pointed out, with other solutions.

+1 it's starting to get abit tedious when you wanna sit down for a session with the boys.

The issue is more that it crashes every time. It's always been the case that sometimes the servers screw up and create duplicates. (Though it would be good to fix that too).

Yeah true, so either if the server didn't crash, or we had perma battle server, or increase the rounds would all work. The best would be fixing the crashes, provided it actually kept ticking over to battle every game.

Fixing the crashes would mean we could actually play on a different map, as they did release 3 battle maps, but we cant play them because it does not randomly select a map when the server starts up, it just always chooses Skolder Hideout lol

Very true, just rewrote the thread with the 3 suggestions so we can enjoy it more, getting to play more maps and factions would be so nice lol... Being stuck on that map and factions forever is getting stale already.

Especially as Vlandia is still OP as hell

Could we at least have TW manually give us different factions?

The Vlandia vs Sturgia match up is 90% of games in siege and TDM already, and we’re bored to death of it.

This must be possible since the CN battle server is always Battania vs Vlandia, so other factions can be the default ones.

I’d suggest:
Empire vs Battania
Empire vs Aserai
Empire vs Khuzait
Aserai vs Khuzait

We’re kinda over Vlandia and Sturgia for now.

Or, assign a numerical value to each faction (Valndia = 0, sturgia = 1 etc) and then just use a randomizer to select two numbers, and use the factions asscociated with each number.

I cant see why this would be to difficult to implement, it would only be a couple of lines of code (and code that would take next to no resource power)

As I've mentioned in the other thread:

We're still working on the backend that will support continuous battle servers and will open them as soon as the work related to that is complete.

The current battle servers you're playing on are a temporary solution.

We're also looking into the crashes.

Thanks for the response, glad to hear that.
