Greetings all,

Sorry for the delay i was looking into the reports of this.

This is currently being investigated although I do not have an ETA on when I will receive an update, I will let you all know as soon as I hear something.

In an effort to keep clutter to a minimum I will be locking additional threads about this and referring them here.


I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.

Was there something that I could do for you, Bannk? I have provided you with the information I have at hand. Perhaps you aren't familiar with me, but I don't provide "cover responses". If you are simply here to cause strife I guarantee you, it will not end well.

I'm sorry, Druisan, I am a Game Master and thus can not post in any forum outside of this one.

I'm not sure I fully understand your question, Haqu.

From my understanding of this issue Towers/Bunkers are not giving honor points. If the issue is able to be resolved tonight from that point on honor should be granted correctly but any honor that you would normally have gained while the issue is being investigated will most likely not be rewarded.

Please explain your question a bit more if I am misunderstanding you.

What question, Konway?

Q u o t e:
can we get confirmation of what is and isnt awarding honor currently?

as far as i can tell Towers dont give anything.

but do wingmasters / captain / drek/van still award honor?


I'm not part of the team that is investigating this, Wait, so I don't have all the details. From my understanding Balinda and Galv are providing the correct honor but capturing /destroying a tower is not.

Q u o t e:
do we get honor for the towers we Did destroy while it said we were getting none? will we be receiving that honor at the honor roll over time?


Right now, I simply don't know.

I don't know if the lack of honor when you destroy/capture a tower is simply a display issue or it is actually not providing honor. If it is truly not providing honor upon capture/destruction and is not a display issue you will likely not receive any honor for the towers during tabulation.

Edit: I feel like I'm two questions behind. :D

I will provide what information I can but this is still a new issue so it may take some time to gather information.

Thank you for your patient all.

Ok. My turn to ask a question.

Can you confirm that the towers were capped before the General was killed?

Q u o t e:
Is there an update on this issue? is it merely a display issue or is the honor actually not being rewarded?


I don't have an update, Jerrard, as soon as I do I will post with more information.

Q u o t e:
I just want to find out guys, Is this Tower thing a bug?
or was it placed into the game due to the speed at which we can farm honor up in AV?

From my understanding, Alisitcia, this is not currently working as it was intended.

Q u o t e:
Was the intention to lower the Honor in AV at all or was that fully unintended?


I have no information on that, sorry.

Q u o t e:
Way to show him up blue, its a good thing you have nothing better to do, besides fix the av honor system but whatever.


Yes, because that is precisely what I have the power to do, Neverclear, I am now a developer and have the ability to resolve these types of issues.

Look folks, if this doesn't stop now, I will simply lock all existing threads and you are welcome to wait out your answers on the General of PvP Discussion Forums.

Q u o t e:
He is right, give them slack. It is 1:20 in the morning, most people are sleeping. Much less looking through lines of code at this hour.


We don't let our people sleep, Celetar, that is a vicious rumor.

Q u o t e:
The Chatter about whats going on?


The editing that I've had to do, Alisitcia. The open hostility. This is an a thread for what information we are able to provide and others have been using it to name call.
Q u o t e:

Vrak just end this thread, it has no use or reason for being.


I'd rather not. :) I understand the frustration this has generated and want to keep the thread open so there is a place where updates may be obtained as they come in.

Q u o t e:
So are you basically telling us that no one is around tonight and this won't be fixed until tomorrow morning (if then)? =(


No, Underateen, I haven't said that at all. It may be late but there are still people around.

Q u o t e:
So this wasn't intentional then, right?

Because I'm going to be sad if in a few hours, it's announced that it actually was intended after all.


Not receiving honor for capturing/destroying the towers, as far as I am aware, was not intended. Our technicians and development team is looking into the issue.

For those of you who are still here, I can not thank you enough for your patience while this issue is investigated and a resolution is determined.

Hasent been a peep outta Vrak in a while mate, Hopefully we will hear something soon.
I hate having to dig through the junk for meaningful messages.

~Alisitcia


I haven't peeped, but I did say I will provide an update as soon as I receive one. :) Unfortunately I have heard no peeps as of yet.

I think that's just about enough, Natt.

Oh, and I've been playing longer than you, so you only have troll status. :P

G'night, Alisitcia. QA, Development and several others have been investigating this so hopefully we'll have something to tell you soon. It might be Pavonum that provides the answer though.

Dum de doo, so still "unintended"? by that i mean nothing to prove otherwise as yet?


Nothing to prove otherwise yet, Lootifer, cute name by the way. :)

As an update, I can confirm that it is not intended for players not to receive Honor for destroying enemy towers, and that this is not merely a display issue; our investigation indicates that the Honor Points are, indeed, not being granted appropriately. Although I sadly have no specific news of developments in our research of the matter, or of the proper authorities' efforts toward resolution, I shall be certain to convey any information I receive with all due haste. In the interim, folks, allow me to reiterate how grateful we are for your patience. Thank you all. :)
