Star Conflict v.1.1.3 Discussion

Star Conflict 1.1.3 Update #2 was installed on game servers

No.

NO. This is NOT a good fix.

 

Making the Fed battles take place at 00:00 EST screws over the ENTIRE European playerbase. Are they supposed to wait until 6-7am to play in Dread battles? And what about everyone else? They have to play at midnight? Half my corp was already strained to make it because of work and life commitments (you know, because sleep is a thing people need). There’s no way they can show up now.

 

This is infuriating and entirely favors the Russians. I just bought GS to support the devs today and I am _ immediately  _regretting that decision.

This is a great update allowing asia and oceania player to participate dreadnought battles at a reasonable time.

This is why I’ve promised not to spend any money on this game until the glaring issues are fixed.

Also yes.

You do realize that they have split Federation in Half, not moving all US sectors in time.

They basically created another small region within fed, for those that needs that. There arent many corporations in USA that can actualy fight at this moent, we dont need that many sectors at all, less sectors = more fights.

I did not as I have seen no indicator of the subchanges. I only see the “Battles in 00:00” where it used to say 21:00… But if it’s to allow for more Far East gameplay, why not split the sectors given to them between the three factions? Why just Fed? It’s not like there are more sectors in it than there are in Empire or Jericho.

 

Arch spent over 6k iridium attacking Poseidon Complex over the last few days. It’s taken us multiple wings to get it down to what it is, and now we may lose the ability to do so because nearly 10 of our players were USA and had to go to sleep early, or were EU and can’t stay up that late. Plus now RU players get to attack us over and over while we struggle to find players who can stay up to defend it. And yes, we can contract out, but that forces us to rely on players we may not trust as highly.

 

It just feels like a big middle finger to USA and EU players. I understand and even appreciate the idea of trying to help improve access, but don’t do it at the cost of access elsewhere…

Poseidon Complex was not one of the sectors that have their timezone changed.

In fact 2 of locations we overtook recently during USA time are the ones that got pushed in 3 hours later, but that is ok we are here to fight not to gather vespene gas.

Where are you seeing this in-game? I don’t see anything besides the 00:00 indicator.

when you hover your mouse over a location, it has a small time stamp over its thumbnail picture.

There are 4 times where you can play 05:00 am UTC, 18:00 pm UTC, 20:00 pm UTC and 02:00 am UTC. If the “6-7am” your time is not suitable for you (of course), you can simply play on 6 or 9 pm. When its said Fed battle, it doesn’t mean that only Fed can play on that time. Even if you are Fed you can play in Jeriho or Empire sectors. Just warp jump there. 

P.S. 8 p.m. European time is not bad and its actually great! Please stop saying Devs are favoring someone - because that is not right.

Perhaps somebody can explain time zones again?

 

So as far as i understood it there are three time zones, all given in UTC, at 6.00, 19.00 and 21.00.

 

Yet iaxil is saying it is different???

 

Aditionally  do u have to warp from ur orininal buliding place every time? So if u build Fed dread do u have to jump down to Jericho every time if u want ot play there or do u jump once and then u stay?

Those times were confirmed.

You warp from where your dreadnough is located. If you’ve build Fed Dread you can jump down to Jericho location and stay there.

 

UTC time could be googled, please compare your in game time with UTC and if it’s not right you have a bug - therefore, please lodge a bug report.

UTC is 9.50 in game its 10.50 cuz i am european on +1. “Real” time (time that shows on clocks around me) is actually 11.50 cuz of summertime. 

 

So when da game tells me da battle is at 6.00, when do i actually have to show up? I suppose when the in-game time matches.

 

In-game i get the times: 3:00, 6.00 (fed>), 19.00 (emp) and 21.00 (jer).

Hi!!

 

Times created problems in my corp the first day too. We were a bit confused but the problem is solved now. But maybe the timer can show the information more accuraccy, I guess you have think of the thing that I’m going to say, but I must say… why not sheduled the hour like older sector conquest battle or like the GS tournament? With the timer of the GS tournament everybody in the world knows the time exactly when the next batlle will be, without problems, like the older sector conquest timer too. I mean… In each window of each faction could shows “2:52 hours remaining for the next battle” or something like that, in other faction the time remaining displayed will be another one, of course…or even better, when somebody sets the cursor over the sector that he or she wants information, the pop-up window with the information of the sector, (attacks, tier, etc.) can shows the time remaining too. I think that with this solution are the problems will be solved. I repeat, I guess that you are think about that, so… why not? XD

Lol… So… All Fed sectors I see have 03:00 or 06:00, which as I understand means 04:00 AM and 07:00 AM CEST due to lack of summertime compensation in the display. All Emp sectors have 19:00 displayed, meaning 20:00 CEST. All Jerry have 21:00 (22:00 CEST).

 

So all that was changed is now that Fed sector is split from one unplayable time (04:00 AM CEST) for EU players into two unplayable times for EU players (04:00 AM and 07:00 AM).

 

It’s so sad, it’s already funny again.

 

It’s clear the dev’s did hear the complaints (GREAT). It’s just that they didn’t understand them (BOO).

 

Still laughing.

We did understand your compaints - we are waiting on the response for summer time/time zones

JERICHO is EUROPEAN time zone

Why are you complaining that Europeans can not play in Federation? I don’t get it.

Each region designed for fights in own time zone

EMPIRE is optimised for Russians

Jericho is optimized for Europe

Federation is split in half and Optimized for USA and Asia.

You have European pilots in your corporation, go fight in Jericho, no one is preventing you form doing so, even if your Dreadnought is Federation or Empire, you still can attack Jericho, and knowing that you have no sectors controlled it is a dirt cheap to attack (45 iridium per wing, surely your corporation can afford that much)

So far NONE of the concerns you provided are valid, if you want to fix something, make sure you stop QQ like a middle school kid, and explain your situation for how it is, so we all can understand what is actually your problem.

Federation is split in half and Optimized for USA and Asia.

 

 

FREEDOM! 'MURICA! 

Personally I don’t get why the game can’t use the person’s local time…it can’t be that hard to implement can it? Like, there is even a local time clock in the hangar yet we still need to guess when “Battles in 6:00” is :slight_smile:

 

Or even if it said  05:00 am UTC, 18:00 pm UTC, 20:00 pm UTC and 02:00 am UTC  then that would make more sense…
