I think it’s a shame that there are still the same or similar issues floating around - with no working solution yet.
I am alpha testing a large game by one of the largest entities on the planet - it was all fine until a lot of people realized there were pvp elements in regards to building and take-overs. People are asking for it to be removed and already quitting over it.
Any pvp elements need to be contained - off in their own region/planet/etc so that it’s a choice to participate. The plotting system/prestige/settlements makes everyone an antagonist & it’s stressful. Real estate is a huge fundamental element to building & creating - it should be super simple.

Did someone say “nomad”. Like Fireborn Nomads?
. That is why Me and power merged. Some bad apples in the game spreading lies about us. So we had a lot in common and decided to be one guild. We actually got 4 other main guilds to come with us to the city. Some keeping their name and some taking on ours. I’m not picky lol. I think it’s awesome when people can work together. I just love building communities and having people be a part of it together. Everyone else is welcome to build here in alder. Planet is filling up! I’m actually wondering if we will get a serge of new permanent planets that have very different traits about them. Like weaker gravity, liquids flow upwards, maybe a planet where quantum realms open visible to the eye and weird stuff happens.

Well to be fair at the end of the day thats the whole Biitula fuss in the first place someone wants what the others have and never the twain shall meet. SO the rules need changing is what I get from it all lol

I am not mad…discussing is all… but when the other debater constantly dismisses your points as this and that, but meanwhile they seem like they want to educate you why you are always wrong… it sort of grinds me down. I am sure Xalda does not intend to be this way…but it makes it hard to make any progress in creating solutions… and of course when I get grounded down (added to the fact I am actually sick at the moment and feel like what I imagine a trashcan must feel like) it makes it harder yet
Christmas…and Merry Christmas to you too

I feel like it’s more sour grapes.
Esp when someone posts that they would rather opt out of prestige system entirely or tear down their build than have someone else ‘benefit’ from their prestige.
If you’re not pressing for warden, and you’re not joining/aligning to their guild, then it seems pretty inconsequential to me. The only thing it helps is mutual footfall.

That the 900lb gorilla in the room isnt it? If you dont care why do they care? lmao
I proposed the current iteration back in 2017;
Though @Havok40k had similar ideas beforehand, and I’m sure the developers thought this up as they were creating plots to begin with.

It was strange day when my private settlement got merged with yours. I didn’t expect it to happen that fast but to me it is part of the game and I did anyway build towards Platinium in Alder

Nah. It is dislike for a system that allows people to create conflict among people. It is dislike for people that try to minimize the issues of others instead of support it. None of these solutions really “hurt” people except those that clearly like the conflict and using things.
Actually no because footfall is lessened for everyone in big merged cities. Additionally it isn’t inconsequential when it is a game mechanic you cannot stop. It is something people deal with and leave because of. So just either remove it or provide a solution for everyone to increase the player base.
That is the simple fundamentals of this.

Awesome to bring this up. It is sad how obvious this situation was to many of us and how we wanted to change it because of the exact things we see now.
I think the biggest issue now is a system like this only works on new worlds and not existing. So either opt-out or some what to rebuild the settlement to take into consideration of plots that are touching is needed as well.

We are tribalistic in nature. We are pattern seeking mammalian animals that learned to walk upright. (most likely because of energy conservation).
We are bias, accept familiar objects to be trustworthy over non familiar, we have traits like cognitive dissonance, dunning Kruger effect, and produce many fallacies a day. Even when aware of them. We are very complex AND very flawed. We have many poorly adapted and evolved features. To say those who do plot a lot and own a lot of the planet should be on private planets I think is completely backward. It can be crappy for sure if the intention is to force merge everyone . I think if taking someone prestige is intentional than I would consider my morals a notch higher. We shouldn’t stab each other in the back. Nor place barriers like you own a planet to keep someone from expanding. We should do our best to not assume and gossip about someone either. This is a game based on a SOCIETY. It’s not a creative mode private server. This entire game acts as one server. This is what you bought. I agree that some mechanics ought to be modified or changed. But to say that those who simply do what humans do should be kicked off a planet is just as bad as taking away someone rights. I’m my opinion it’s the ones who want to be left alone who would best fit on a private planet if they were to be added.
