Re: To the Devs: is Botting Funding you
To be fair, I don't think you stand to gain all that much from that when it comes to farming. The only real advantage I can see of such an arrangement is that it can run 24/7, but with crops taking multiple days to grow, even if you only log in once a day and replant whatever is ready, you only stand to gain like 30% or so, in the best possible case, if the only advantage is that you can harvest the crops the moment they're ready.Aceb wrote:In case I've been made fool (by botters), I ment something that bot does everything by themselfs (collect, stack, replant).

Re: To the Devs: is Botting Funding you
Beside the time, it is also about the scale. I doubt anyone would spend more than 4 hours solely managing farming or generally, making very big farms that usually I saw, were tend by one person.loftar wrote:To be fair, I don't think you stand to gain all that much from that when it comes to farming.

If you haven't been affected by botters, I would say you are new or Very lucky!Aceb wrote:botting shouldn't be really a concern to You. Only to big guys.
from production of curios, goods, equipment and foundational market prices to the openness of Ass-hattery and "criminal" operations, bots has had a descent role in the whole thing.
I quote criminal, because the history book are written by the victors, and it's not going to matter if your plot/village/realm was taken over by others who Botted their way to the top, because it all starts over because of back up alts/pearls/ or a new World, though a New World is the Busiest time for H&H. characters(I say characters, not players) online by the thousands!
I remember a time, when you would Raze a village and the group wouldn't play till next world.

foundation for FEPS and Quality for animals! not to mention a fair amount of curios can be made from farming alone.loftar wrote:To be fair, I don't think you stand to gain all that much from that when it comes to farming.

take that with the fact in order to get the best possible outcome I believe you have to plant like every 5 hours.
don't know if I can agree with ya all the way there.

Re: To the Devs: is Botting Funding you
Hate the game, not the player. It's the satiation and FEP mechanics we have in place that allow for this. How to fix? There's a big thread in C&I.joojoo1975 wrote: I dunno, but 15K+ stats seems, to be what I hear as the top notch atm. though this late in the game, i'm prolly off big time.
Should this be fair, though? Would they quit if there wasn't going to be a "new world?" Would they just quit the game for good if this happens to them and there wasn't a new world coming? If you look at other PvP-centric games, people do quit games for good after they've created an establishment for some months (or years) and then get knocked down the hill back to the start.joojoo1975 wrote:I remember a time, when you would Raze a village and the group wouldn't play till next world.
