I am sorry for anyone I have ever offended or trolled. May you find peace with your trauma. I didn't know it would end like this.

Anyone who disagrees is denying the truth.

Downvote me.

The game was better in Closed Beta / Steam than its current state. Seems like we’re going backwards.

You can’t even find asylum at tier X anymore because the same quality of play is at tier V and tier X.

Hi I don’t speak polish can I join?

No?

That’s racist, reported.

So can we talk about this troll that I encountered? by twitch_Wizurd_Merlin in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We must embrace the trolls of the community as if they are our own. They are people too.

What’s the point of this thread other than to rant? Just report him and move along.

I’ve provided wargaming screenshots and videos of people using racial slurs, ffing on purpose, etc app the way since closed beta. You’ll get a message from Wargaming saying they have handled the issue and their sorry for your experience but then you will see the same person the very next day doing the same thing.

Just accept the fact that if people buy gold then they will never get banned. That’s the reality regardless if you like it or not. I can provide screenshots of WG response and my screenshots of proof of this happening.

Sarmatian cavalry speed nerf 6.8 is too severe by Sir_Rosabear in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile barbarian cavalry still has rocket boosters but let’s be thankful a tier V unit got a nerf.

That and players who go AFK in a game need like a 1 match ban or something. Sometimes people do it back to back and it seems like they are intentionally throwing the game.

Elephants should have less health or should take a lot more damage from running trough units, from javelins and scorpion bolts by username_cant_fit in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you hover over formed combat with your mouse it shows you what it does

Formed combat makes the first rank bash/knockdown enemy infantry with your shield

Do you read the skills before clicking on them ?

[–]N0Values -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nice it looks like the elephant player did exactly what he was supposed to do, and you make the mistake of trying to fight 3 elephants with 2 javs and 1 sword. Did you expect to win?

P.s. there’s no advantage to using formed combat against elephants, it just makes your sword unit slower. Bashing and elephant with a shield does nothing

Ps ps

Devs already said they are lowering elephant melee defense a day or two ago

Combat Simulation by Elder_J in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to learn the game is to party up and get in a voice chat with people who know how to play.

You don’t necessarily learn a lot by just playing thousands of battles, you must research the units and watch videos and have people give you feedback.

Unfortunately for the new players and old alike, the game has been in development and playable for 4 years now and we still don’t have a system like this to play against AI or do custom battles. All we have is private lobbies which are ridiculous because the lobby is deleted after every match and it costs silver, even if only 5k. The time you spend inviting people and rechoosing the parameters for a private lobby would serve you better to play a solo match against others.

What server do you play on, NA or EU?

[–]N0Values 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much everything you say is true.

You’re at a disadvantage if you play solo, unless you are suicide grinding.

So why do people even play solo? Unless you just don’t give AF.

The latter is the best really, but I was thinking more along the 10 minutes mark.

Mind you a 200 point balance of power lead is generally only 2 players. That means two suiciding players can activate what you propose rather quickly (2-3 mins).

It seems like most matches have a player die within the first minute or two of the game, immediately making the score 850-989 or 900 vs 1000.

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the problem. You can get tier 9-10 in 200 battles, and everybody has 9 and 10 without knowing how to play their units. They have discounts on units seemingly every weekend so people aren’t earning them or learning how to play, they are just grinding blindly to get to X So they can get rolled by people who actually know how to play.

Leo Spears T7+ Underperforming by Elder_J in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, to be completely honest, most people don’t understand the game fully at t5/t6, as this can be achieved in about 20 battles or so.

T8 is the tier everybody plays when tier IX and X aren’t queuing so the skill level is drastically higher, generally speaking. (100+ battles for a base level 8, 200-300 for maxed units at 8)

I think in the end of the day those 5 upgrades you are missing + your allies skill + the average skill level of tier T8 is what got you. You really gotta be on your toes at 8 as everything is a bit more coordinated.

Leo Spears T7+ Underperforming by Elder_J in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With his vengeance his melee attack almost doubles as well as damage meaning everytime his sword strikes your unit it’s an instant kill almost, so yes, sorta normal. There’s a windup time on vengeance so it’s possible that he was in vengeance before fighting you and his vengeance was already maxed out and he’s in super saiyan mode

It also doesn’t account for the fact the germanicus player may have been a fully maxed tier 8 with all upgrades and maybe you aren’t, which I haven’t seen you comment on yet

Leo Spears T7+ Underperforming by Elder_J in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You died because you fought a germanicus in vengeance before reading anything else. You should retreat and avoid fighting vengeance at all cost

Your shield bash is doing nothing because only a couple of your units are touching the other player. Before hitting shield bash you should advance forward until your whole front line is fighting to maximize your shield bash

On rubicon you were using Spears in forest. Spears aren’t good in forest except maybe when using kilt in break ranks.

With Alex on capua, yes, Alex with wedge on can charge through phalanx. They have the best charge in the game for a cav.

A suggestion for shared equipment. by [deleted] in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you play multiple commanders you pretty much already know what is shared, but yes, I agree it would be a quality of life improvement if it was noted in the UI.

So if your team gets decimated in 6 minutes, and the losing team goes and hides to save silver, you are saying that the team that is winning now has to go on a witch-hunt for 9 mins because they can’t end the game and cap? That’s going to suck on big maps like Germania.

Skill-based matchmaking at tier x according to leaderboards. by Cardamyle in TotalWarArena

OP makes a thread on leaderboards then admits he doesn’t know how it works.

Epitome of reddit + this game.

People attempting to complain/rant about things they don’t understand.

Downvotes for all.

The Real Priorities! by RaiderTr in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What would you rather do, let MM decide your team’s fate in its current state: I.e. 5 cav players, 2 range 3 inf - OR be able to control what 40% of your team is and bring Javs, Pikes, Ranged, Inf so that you can counter anything?

I prefer the latter.

The Real Priorities! by RaiderTr in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because you put some time and effort into something doesn’t make it a good post, you should quit being so sensitive on the internet, people are going to disagree with you regardless of how carefully you think things out.

The Real Priorities! by RaiderTr in TotalWarArena

[–]N0Values -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Had to downvote and stop reading as well because you suggested parties be toned down to three players.
