I'm pretty sure this was already suggested, but anni right now is unbalanced. And mostly because of the teams. Almost every game 90% of the players spam the team with better players, just for the xp. It may seem like the players are just leechers, wanting to be in a certain team to get carried and get more trophies/xp, but you can't blame them, because being in another team is pointless. After phase 2 begins, your team is dead. And most of the times nothing can be done. I agree that some players are better than the others, but the problem is everybody is trying to join 1 team. So my suggestion is to add random teams when you join a lobby. I know this is kinda controversial, because there are players that play together, just cos they are friends or w/e. But after they join a team, everybody is trying to get in their team. And by everybody, I mean everybody. Most of the times you can see 10-15 players in the lobby spamming one team, while every team has 2 players.. Unfortunately, the Anni server isn't like before few years with hundreds of players at a time. And even if there is a better team, you still have a chance, due to the amount of players, each with different playstyle. Random teams could actually balance the game, because every team will be different every game and new strategies will be needed. The problem with playing with friends together could also be fixed with some kind of parties with capacity of 2 players. There are probably players that may want 3-5 player parties, but that will once again make the game for other teams impossible. I'd like to see what others think bout this.
I agree with you, got_boy. Even though I think that in every Anni match, >50% (not necessarily 90%) of the players spam the bigger (in case of players) team and ignore others.
I agree we need random team otherwise one team just always dominates it makes it so predictable that which time will win or loose and also why cant we just put team selection before the match starts or first 5min of phase I after that everyone who is not in a team will be put in a random team
This could also result in unbalanced teams. 5 minutes is most of the times enough for 4-5 good players to join the same team. I think right now the solution could be entirely random teams and for those who want to play with a friend, party of 2 people. If in the future there are more players, removing this system won't hurt that much. But right now, Anni is unplayable and entirely demotivating. Even if you are in the good team few tines, it also becomes boring. Nowadays anni is more of a xp/trophy grind than thinking of different strategy, having fun, being under pressure if you could get between 10 players with assassin and still get their nexus. Not only most of the kits are unbalanced, but also the teams. Like I said, it becomes extremely demotivating at certain point and the only pressure you feel the entire game is if you could join the good team. xD
Getting better won't help me vs entire clan with good players xD. I know this is team-based game and people want to play with their clan/friends. But a balance won't hurt plus there could be clan wars where everyone can play with their clan.
The thing is the small anni community. Playing with or versus same teams isn't fun, no matter if you win or lose. Same strategies every single game. If everybody is playing with different team every game will bring the need for new playing methods. Other thing is that kits are unbalanced, but not talking about that now. I have no problem in building or joining someone else's clan, but playing vs or with same players that have same strategy when they are together is extremely boring and demotivating xD. This not only makes all games same, but also bring actual leeches that just spam the better team and after they join they do completely nothing or roam around, waiting for their XP. These guys have almost same total exp as some of the guys that actually work their as**s to win the game and you know that very well. Being put in a different team every game will make you do something if you actually want xp.
very true. clan is the biggest problem in anni. the best anni clan will always win the game because they join in one team. very soon anni 3.0 player count will fall, all the hard works of the developers will go waste, if developers want to see good player counts in anni3.0 after their hard work, developers must make it random and remove clans. even clan wars make no sense because all best players join the best clan. random will keep anni3.0 going for long with good player count. Milo1809/Lewis ----Just get better at the game. easy for you to say because, either you have personal booster,you a good old player or you are in a clan, or you are in a good clan. you are one of these, so you have big mouth to talk. be in the place of others who have none of these [either you have personal booster,you a good old player or you are in a clan, or you are in a good clan] and then u try talking by saying ---Just get better at the game.
Removing clans at this point isn't a good option. You can't blame the other players that they win every game, because they've worked very hard to reach that point. Having both clan wars lobby and randomized anni teams might resolve the problem.
you are right, keep clans as seperate for clan wars, but in the anni3.0 it must make the players random, if not anni3.0 fun dies. those years people dont spam,now people stays in lobby
Ngl you do own a clan or you joined a clan. you said it so boldly, means you are in a good clan and dominating the game(what do you get dominating and winning games, what are you trying to prove yourself, for a game you put your head so high and proud, good for you, and it is just a game (laughing at you).
I dont dominate games i have many close games, but they see shmilo and akbar leader of isis and never lose. I have 140 wins 14 losses i am best in the game even akbar cant compete, and if akbar cant compete no one can compete.
do random teams and have clan member be put on the same teams, so clans actually play together without other people getting in the way. Plus yall r just fanboys spamming with team with the klan members. Cant blame u tho we too good.
That won't change anything really tho. I'm not against clans, I like the whole idea about them. But Anni is meant to be every game different than the one before. Having 2 teams every game that do same thing is more like Super Mario. I know that you and Milo are OG players and remember how much better it was before few years, where every game was for itself, and eventho most of the times farmers were farmers, rushers were rushers, if you played versus some specific players, you had to do something different than usual, if you wanted to win the game. Like I said, the community is much smaller nowadays, and every game playing with or versus exact same players is boring. I honestly don't care if I win or if I lose, stats don't matter for me. The thing is without the need of new strategies and etc, the joy will be gone soon. I agree right now there is a hype around anni, but IMO that's because it updated fairly soon and most players still need some kits, perks and w/e. After some time when they get them there won't be a thing to go for next. And the only thing they could play anni for is the joy the game brings us. However, the repetitive games will most likely make the players lose interest (I really hope that doesn't happen). It won't hurt anyone if the anni is with completely random teams in one lobby, and being about clan wars in another. This way everybody will have the freedom of playing what they enjoy most.
if they still cant understand this, end this topic here, let the developers decide, developers created anni3.0. lets not talk anymore about this balance teams. very soon after a month or so there will be very few players. it is true that new things must come out for better of anni upgrades, but most important thing, make sure the new upgrades dont make players leave after sometime. got_boy, it is better to let this post be locked. no point talking. waste of time.
I think everyone has their own opinion and they can share it if they want to. I won't lock the thread just because someone has different opinion than mine. Constructive criticism is always good, may help both sides see different points and will probably help the devs and admins to decide what will be the best for Anni. If this thread is going out of hand, admins will lock it. I think it's fine for now.
Like I said, there could be different lobbies where everybody will play what they want. I also like to play with some players together if we have same strategy, this is a team game after all. But every game being almost the same everytime is kinda boring. It wouldn't hurt anyone if we had a freedom to choose.
