The size of claim

Post by Qeeet »

I have spent about 20 min just going through the someone's single claim my boat. In total I saw 4 very big claims. I believe the basic purpose of claim is protect your stuff, so you can track down the thief if something was stolen.
Since the map is very limited I suggest one of the following workarounds to do something to claim size:
1) the costs per tile increases exponentially after 10k (for ex.) tiles claimed.
2) make amount of tiles claimed per one character limited.

If you really want to claim all the world, you still have a possibility to do this using village claim

suck on my 20mil LP claim

No claim size limit is really crazy though, as long as no other claims are obstructing it, it can go on forever.

If you think the map is limited i guess you didn't see all 7x7.

A huge claim is the best just to avoid new chars doing the stupid stuff a lot of them do. So your assumption about protection against skilled players (criminal acts) is plain wrong. ;)

you can do the same using village claim. The point is that with village claim the person will think twice if to put claim or not.

lol reality says otherwise ... be it pclaim or vclaim both state the same: occupied ... and both have the same 5 tile distance

And btw.what do you think how many villages should a hermit run ?!? ¦]

I even found a starter (dead) guy that thought he was smart to drop his HF in the gap between 2 pclaims ... to bad the boar had a very good laugh on him ... :P

If the big pclaims bother you: just move elsewhere (or hinder them expanding with your own pclaims)

going through your old posts it looks to me that you rather not blame yourself for not being able to handle the given game mechanics but better blame others that just handle it...

but anyways hafen is in the making and loftar and jorb prolly care about

If you limit personal claims to much all your going to do is force more conflict.

This was gone over already in hafen they are talking about making impossible to store lp in claims like a safe guard maybe it will cost more or limit them not sure....

the point of limiting posibilities with private claim is to balance players who prefer to play alone.
I wouldn't like seeing 1 person having 10 alts and each alt possesses 20milion exp claim which cover 5000x5000 size area
