I'm pretty pissed off so I'll try to be measured here...

At about minute 23:30, my inf just simply stopped capping. I pulled the panther off the field specifically because I knew I needed inf to cap. I was aware of the situation. I sat on his reinforce zone for like 3 damn minutes going "is this ever gonna fucking turn?" and sure enough it never did. I ran around in the middle of the map like a freaking maniac going uhhh... capture plz?

Now the fact that capping is linked to inf, and allied inf spam is mode du jour, which leads to practically effortless capping when it works, I won't bring up. I also won't mention how ridiculous allied offmaps are, and that the only reason I fared so yawningly well against shit-eating Gorkali was because he sucked at using his button-wins. However, I will mention that I am disappointed the replay ended when it did because we could have been able to enjoy his all caps boasting.

Cherry on top of the cake, I lost all vet that I earned. I got some xp, the panther got an arbitrary 17xp for some reason. I don't know what the 88 ended up with or the P4 but they were all clearly at least vet 1 or 2 by the end of the game, and then not even vet 1 after. So if anybody could tell me what kind of nonsense this was, I'd be appreciative.

Not happy
Erwin

1vs1s aren't made for EIRR in all honesty- Thus they are more or less for training and testing purposes. They don't give much XP nor PP or anything. If you want full ammount of scheisse you gotta play +2vs2s.

The 1vs1s were modified to give you very little XP for your units to prevent Vet farming. I believe this vet farming has happened in the past (People feeding their friends all their stuff to make tons of vet in a short time- in short vet 2-3 Army in one game).

clearly none of you downloaded the video. It is ridiculous. I am aware that EiR is mostly a group v group game. This is a whole new level of fail.

u need EiRbattle.sga to be able to veiw a replay.
capping usually stops when your pop reached zero (pop =0). It does not matter that u have units on a field - u must retreat, u loose.

yeah, go into your europe in ruins archives folder and host your most reacent Europeinruinsbattle.sga file, not the text file that exists in your main.

But i can tell you that it sounds as if your victim to the ol' "stick a 1 man squad in the corner" of the sector which prevents capping back the sector no matter how many squads you have in it.

Well, regardless, territory capture and the way it functions will be addressed after the warmap.

clearing the entire sector before you can cap it is actually a 1000 times better system than a "guy with the most inf wins" system.

6. Rage Posting

Users sometimes feel that the whole Dev team changes stats on purpose right before their game starts and then they come here like 10 year old kids who believe they can take on everyone because they just simply are right and nobody can prove them wrong. From now on a rage thread/post will be moderated on sight, do us a favor and take a cold bath before posting after a bad game please, we all have had bad games but that doesn't allow us to rage in the forums.

Posting a rage post or similar will result in you being banned from the balance forum.

He made a funny thread for bear, and got banned.

Now bear makes his own funny thread. It's unsurprisingly not funny.

Keeps died for our funny threads.

1v1s don't give you wins or losses either.

..... if you couldn't sense the humor in my all caps angry line, then you're just being dramatic. But thanks for trying to pretend that someone is being a 10 year old, so that you can prove you're a big boy.

How's being 11 feel?
