I can't remember what thread it was brought up in, but we talked about having all accounts linked to one. And I suggested that if you got to a certain level you would get 500PPs for other accounts so you could try other stuff out without having to grind multiple accounts. Well I had another idea that I think is even better!

As it stands I just recently bought my last advantage, I have everything bought, now ill only be buying SPs. I have 244XP past rank 8. So I think we should get a rank 9 that comes at either 200 XP past rank 8 or 250XP past rank 8 (i have a pretty much 1:1 win loss ratio).

Anyways once you reach rank 9 you get a button that wipes your battalion clean. You lose all your units and SPs that were bought. BUT! This also makes all advantages/doctrine free and wipes them out as well.

So when you are level 9 you can constantly change your doctrine choices/advantages each game. Having it wipe your battalion means you won't keep any vet or SP every time you decide to change things up, and will prevent people from keeping a pershing, wiping, then getting 2 other T3s.

This will also give players the flexibility they want without having to start new accounts and start from scratch. Pretty much by the time a player gets this far with their account, they regret at least one advantage they picked or one doctrine choice. This would also allow players to stick to an account for quite some time trying different things underneath that doctrine choice. So since I'm armor, one day I could be running a double calli, dual rocket rack battalion, decide I hate it, and run a M-18 heavy AP round company the next.

i don't think its that good since it allows you to do literally anything with your account, whereas lesser accounts have to stick with what they have until they get to lvl 9.

It would just further the gap between higher ranked players and lower ranked players.

as long as EVERYTHING is erased and you ONLY get enoguh PPs for the doctrines, NO SP. 

All saved PP is gone. 

Because people will change to off map heavy stuff just to spam and fuck ppl over.

Puddin' spamtm
i cant really blame smokaz i mean playing against puddin is like trying to fight off breast cancer. You might win and do it and be a bad ass but you'll feel sick and mutilated forever.

Puddin' spamtm is soulcrushing... what's hard to understand about that?

Agreed, and that's the idea in my head. Everything is gone. So if you get any off maps or abilities they are only the free uses you start off with.

You could have it so at Rank 9, you can offer to boost your other account by the PPs automatically earned for winning, going to those accounts linked. This could also be done for people wanting to help others, but giving them PPs they wouldn't otherwise be able to use

Yeah, pretty much what Akranadas said:
When you reach a max rank (or any rank maybe) if you create a new account / battalion linked to your main - you would start off in a certain state of PP / Rank.

Very much like the way DAoC did it online - When you max leveled (50 at the time), you could create a level 20 character anywhere, any server.

We'll probably be doing something similar.

Depends which way we go really - we'll probably open it up completely for the community with a vote of some sort.

Although, most popular doesnt always equal best choice Wink

understandable but that way it prevents you from playing an easy early war doctrine and switching after accumulating lots of pp really quick...say play airborne and get some quick PP etc then switch to armor.

very interesting ideas all around the board.

i see how some people see it as a bad thing making a bigger gap, but i don't really see it, why create an armor account 15 times because you just can't find the doctrine choices that suit you best? there are some players on here where they have a few accounts at level 8 and there are some people like me who only have one account at level 8 and just recently got it maxed out.

i like the idea of having pp go from one account to another as well. all interesting. i hope to see more posts with opinions to and for the different ideas stated.

Thats never been the direction.

Its always been about making it easier for newer players to adjust / play vs pro/nerds.

what I meant was that when you decide to start over, you start at Tier 2 with free tier 1 and 2 unlocks.
