There will be 2 changes to HA in September:

1) HA times will be changed following the poll result.

The poll result was not above 70% on the face of it; however, we found a number of fake accounts that were created to vote "no" in an attempt to skew the result.  Removing these took the result over 80% and passed the change.

2) From the September patch one fleet will be able to own 2 harbors at max.

All things being equal, the HA changes should occur on 12th September 2011.

+ bits:

Following on from the HA vote we will be looking to pick out further suggestions from players that are achievable and practical for development priorities in order to instigate formal player votes on them.  High results of yes votes (with fakes removed) will take them forward.

We are also hoping to return the /movemember function in the near future.  Tests have been conducted on a revamp of the coding for it with good results.  However, once this does return requests for the lifting of fleet penalties will not be approved.

Nope cause most of them are too laid back, most ppl will just stack in with the bigger fleets.

We had that issue on Yamato, mostly with fleets that didn't have an identity.

If you want to be competitive, you will build your fleet to improve.

If you want to have fun, by all means, DO HARBOR ASSAULTS, but don't let your fleet go straight to hell if you are repeatedly smashed.

Fleets that are delusional and think they can smack around with the biggest and best usually struggle in many areas when the reality hits. Unfortunately, it got to the point where most mid-large fleets on Nebraska had given up, at least temporarily.

Losing a HA isn't the end of the world. Just don't think you can crack the harbor tile when the reality is three tiles is a stretch . . . ahem . . .

Excellent News.

Is it also possible to have a vote regarding the activation of the alliance system and tax system?

Furthermore, as rehor said, reduction of the prep time by 10 minutes would do wonders.

I wish we could also have a vote regarding SS5 implementation/SS rebalance, especially with those spam fake votes removed.

fantastic great job, elliot there are alot of fleets that can do HAs here recently the smaller fleets that have gained harbors were gimmies, not all, but alot of them, that within itself took away what HAs were about

I was the one that asked for it to be one harbor rule, I wanted to see how it would work out, on kaiser yeah it works pretty good, on nebby it dosent, and we need to put balance back on the servers, so I admited I was wrong and asked for it to be changed back...and was granted thanks to the communitys help

now as for the smaller fleets they still have a chance to do HAs, trust me from experiance the more you do, the more it attracts ppl to your fleet, It took JRF almost a year to get where we are now, with alot of training and never give up attitude, if you think that you already have no chance, guess what? you have already sealed your fleets fate

there are alot of very good fleets on kaiser that could become a hell of a threat, EOM, true sith, TC is back, brazil forever fleet, NSA and a few others, thing is if they dont attack or even try, then it would be their own fault at their own stalemate, good thing about having 2 harbors it always leaves a threat potental fleet knocking at your door, and makes HAs worth getting up for

so lets get to work, and bring the fun back to NF

Well done Farazelleth! I'm gonna give you a special Haggis recipe on Vent!


It'll be nice to see which fleets can take two harbours and keep them. Maybe we'll see another "Cold War" like back on MO/YO.

The ability to hold two harbors does not necessarily mean holding two harbors. At least on Kaiser harbors have at times [after the server merge and reset of harbors] been virtually given away to for the ability to do assaults or keep HAs running regularly. I'm not sure how many of the fleets on kaiser [nor will I speak for any of them] but I would imagine few will try to hold two harbors but rather choose one they want to hold, keep and invest and use the other available as a means for doing assaults. Frankly Defense and assaults are two totally different environments and personally I'd enjoy being able to do both on a regular basis. In the current [until the new rule goes to effect] to assault you must give up [or lose] your current harbor, which means if you want to do a real defense you really can't or you will not be able to assault.

Again all personal opinions and what any fleet does is up to the fleet as a whole, so these are just my personal opinons and do not represent any fleets stance.

some good points in there. although for this week for instance 8 different fleets will have fun doing HA, and after this new HA stuff, the max will be 6. Although why cant SDE do kaiser 1 max and nebby 2 max. It would make more sense and the way it is now on kaiser it works great.
