Re: mercs

Hmm mixed feelings

The limit on merc purchases is because there is a limit of mercs on the market and we dont want one person to buy all the available mercs in one go meaning no mercs for everyone else, maybe just because their internet is slower. If there were unlimited mercs available then the amount you could buy in one purchase could be higher.

Currently if you want to buy the mercs available on the turn tickover and have fast enough internet you simply set several tabs to buy 999,999 mercs, keep refreshing one page and on the second the mercs arrive you click Buy on each of the tabs. So the current system is flawed.



Since the obvious solution is to heavily increase or make unlimited the number of mercs available so the purchase amount can also be increased I think the real question is.....

Why are available mercs limited, pros/cons ??? And should the limits be increased/removed

See, Sammy and Mezz know what I am talking about... :D

Thanks Sammy & Mezz!! =D>

Re: mercs

individual market would be the best idea , how can u limit someone per turn ? thats a stupid idea , as theirs mill mercs per turn change in all of gw , and about 1500 players on a good time trying to get them , what are you going to limit 10,000 mercs per turn?
