      ​@@RobertLovesGames it could be being used to develop algorithms to plan out how future armies develop logistics over land in the most efficient way, or find the most effective model, through a catalog of prior wars compressed into singular algorithmic files of what's good, what's bad, hour to hour, day to day, of the wars, which can be used to simulate battles based on identified similarity to current footholds, positions, industry, manpower, etc.
      but then again, no modern warfare in foxhole using planes, so whatever.

      These systems are hugely plagued with favoritism, one example being WERCS siding with 82DK 9.9/10 because most of the high ranking positions in WERCS is staffed with either 82DK officers or friends of 82DK.

      That's exactly what the SIGIL system is though. It recognizes discord participation cannot be guaranteed and the commonly accepted threshold for staking a claim is therefore building a structure (maintenance tunnel, FOB, bunker base, oil wells) that is visible from the map in game. The only thing that SIGIL handles is a bot that lets participating groups tell that bot where they are going and highlights any fields where multiple groups are going so they can change plans or start working things out ASAP.

    • @SherrifOfNottingham
      @SherrifOfNottingham 4 місяці тому +1

      This is a universal tenet of game design
      When "wikis" for games became more prevalent, players that need to leave the game to get information about the game, only need to do so because of a lack of accessibility of that information in the game, well not entirely but we should operate under that perception.
      It's one thing for a game to not have the numbers added up and analyzed by our resident aspies, but players needing to rely on exterior applications for ANYTHING is a case of "caught the dev lacking"
      In game wikis are mandatory, sure some players will still want third party wikis to pull up on a tablet next to the game rather than breaking the flow of the game to pull up the in game one so the existence of a wiki isn't shame, but when the information is otherwise not available in the game, that's the problem.
      This also exists for communication systems, people will prefer to use discord, that's a fact, but not supplying it just because you know people will discord up is bad design. And this goes for map tracking, claims and all kinds of stuff. If players are building it outside of the game, you need to add it inside the game.

  • @diytto
    @diytto 5 місяців тому +40

    We (HAULR) got booted off a coal field this war by a larger regiment because they had the claim on sigil, which we refuse to participate in due to past grievances. The sigil claim system is essentially useless for what actually happens in game and leads to people being unable to discuss and cooperate with others. We do public upgrades for free for the faction every war and enjoy working with other groups around us, so it’s disappointing when other groups refuse to cooperate and do not want to work with us and would rather bully the smaller clan because they can get away with it. We eventually ended up in another region at a coal field where the group that was already there was happy to cooperate with us and share space and resources.

    • @mylesdrake2949
      @mylesdrake2949 4 місяці тому +8

      Sigil is not a claim system like Wercs don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Anytime a big regiment starts throwing their weight around say something in world chat. The true Collie bros will come to your aid.

  • @blazeburner303
    @blazeburner303 4 місяці тому +8

    the easiest way to avoid resource drama is simple: steal the other faction's nodes
    also we USED to get information way earlier, but that led to a lot more of a clusterfuck as clans would claim way earlier and often times wars were decided before they even started since collies early war advantage meant they could pick strategic blitz zones and cripple warden economy forcing even more conflict among refugee clans and established clans
    all of this has come from a massively upscaling from what regiments are supposed to be, which is specific niche bits that focus on one aspect of the game but have evolved from regiments to combined command

  • @mayuzanevideos
    @mayuzanevideos 5 місяців тому +27

    Pretty much why I go after the ‘hard to reach’ resource fields, the ones far away from roads. It’s a hassle to get to them but since they’re usually untouched, anything I make is a net positive for the faction. Personally I don’t think a third party app should be necessary for designating who gets what, maybe a feature in-game that could work to help organize like a public ‘global bulletin board’ or something.

    • @RobertLovesGames
      @RobertLovesGames  5 місяців тому +5

      But I do this as well. Good on you for keeping those resources fields useful and not maxed out all the time!
      The map post are supposed to be like a bulletin board type system but can only do so much.

    • @SherrifOfNottingham
      @SherrifOfNottingham 4 місяці тому +1

      I really feel like there should be a sort of "scroop matching" for resources, it's probably the best way to handle the problem.
      I don't know exactly how they would handle it or implement it, but essentially double rates on shared piles somehow. My main idea here is to make clans production accessible to solo players, and solo player contributions usable by clans. If I dig up some scrap and take it to a refiner, I get the same amount I would normally get, but it also generates some public resources that me and my clan CANNOT touch. That way if I go dig up some scrap and put it in a refiner, the clan doesn't lose resources and I get rewarded for helping.
      The other thought is a form of contribution currency, where mining resources and providing them for public use grants some kind of "merits" that can be used for something.
      The entire idea of clans with this game sort of bothers me, especially the large 'corporate' style clans that are often the offenders of these kinds of "civil wars"
      When new players start the game they're going to start scrapping, probably without knowing what people call it. They'll roll up to a field to help mine resources and get report botted or team killed for it and have no idea why. They were just helping further the war effort, and they'll immediately close the game and refund it. Quite literally the only reason I didn't quit and refund it right there was because I bought a steam key off site and activated it on steam... there's no refund policy for that. Anybody on your faction scrooping should be welcomed with open arms, any behaviors or systems in the game that cause that to be a cause for a team kill AND a 2 hour time out need to be analyzed.
      If clans are going to form and cause these problems, then clans as a whole need to be looked at as a mechanic. Obviously people will want to organize, and they'll do it with or without clan tags, but I have only seen ONE clan in the game where I would respect their decision to claim a deposit... and that's because it was a 100% logi clan, and all of their efforts were to literally distribute supplies to the front lines. They would make tanks and drop them off on the front line for ANYBODY to use.

    I honestly think the devs need an in game resource claim system that has a similar expiration to stockpiles with a member count requirement prior to claiming with a set cap on how many you can claim.
    OR
    Man made resource fields like mineshafts and drills that take a lot of resources to upkeep.
    These have thier own pros and cons in itself for sure but throwing things out to see, as a 5 war vet I'm kinda annoyed with the claim system in itself because that detracts efficiency of resources being delivered to front entirely. Its just is a concept that's slowed down logistics more than anything.

    Again, I blame devs. Players have been asking for ages to know the resource layout beforehand so we can coordinate. Instead, we have 30 mins before war start to deal with this, repeatedly causing problems and friction between the playerbase.

      Lets assume its decently well built by the input of a lot of people in the hex pooling knowledge, the output is public, everybody uses it, but respectfully (which is not a given)
      Who maintains it?
      Everybody? Sorry to shatter your illusion, that aint happening, it doesnt even happen with AntiPartisan defenses at critical points once they start to decay.
      The builder? I mean why should he? Altruistic motivation for the good of the faction, I mean there are a few people like that, but reliable on most fields? Sorry not happening. And he doesnt have a benefit from investing hours each day just so nothing decays.
      Maybe he keeps back some of the output as compensation for maintaining it. Well why should everybody then pool their knowledge in, help build and maybe defend the thing if somebody profits of their work?
      So you are back to a larger group that consistently maintains the field and protects it, with the knowledge and experience to do so efficiently.

    The guy screaming about the legitimacy of their bureaucracy seems like a symptom of the problem... There *does* need to be some organization on each faction in order to actually win the war, but there is no actual legitimacy except for griefing and team killing. The inter-war period could have a planning phase 24 hours or so before the war starts where regiment leaders can vote for which regiment is "granted" a resource field - with a minimum player count requirement to be eligible - then at the start of the war, perhaps only for 48 hours or so, only members of that regiment can actually build there. Limit one resource field per regiment, and make it so there are always public fields, plus whatever other things I've not thought of, and perhaps the issue would go away.
    Key thing though is it *needs* to be in-game. Like you said, third party just doesn't work for players who are new or don't know about such things.

    However I wish devs would do something with the system how resources are gathered as the most demotivating thing is roaming from component mine to component mine and seeing the resources being gathered by somebody else in front of your nose.

I know sometimes the mine will say it has resources and you get to it and someone has just taken them which stinks. But it's kind of part of the game ya know. Don't want to make it to easy but the devs should look at ways for making it more fun and exciting to do for sure.

    This issue is absolutely on the devs with the late resource map and the inability to properly coordinate in-game, among other things. You mentioned that devs are responsible for making their game enjoyable for all players - they definitely are! But these devs CLEARLY DON'T CARE. Resource issues aside, there is a laundry list of items that players have been begging to be addressed for years and the devs refuse to do the bare minimum of acknowledging them. Instead, they're now introducing puddle mechanics or whatever.
    Agreed, griefing and mass reporting are never the answer. But again, there is NO MODERATION. The Code of Conduct is so rarely enforced that it's a joke. The fact that the only "fix" to their broken system is a manually reduced ban for streamers (only) is beyond ridiculous.
    Emboldened by a complete lack of moderation, narcissistic players and regiments take advantage of it to harass and ruin other players' experiences for their own selfish gain and ego boosts. They do not act in good faith REGARDLESS of the solution presented, because when there is no moderation, there is no incentive to cooperate or show basic human decency.
    Players are inherently massively selfish and egotistical. They only care about their own regiment/coalition and have no problem sabotaging their faction. (Meanwhile, the "good" regiments ignore and enable toxic behavior because it would be inconvenient to confront, allowing it to fester.) The devs intentionally allow this vile culture to thrive. Players cannot control what the devs do but they CAN control their own behavior, yet they choose not to because it is culturally acceptable (even expected) to harass, grief, and act pathetic.

      Well said. Despite "clanman bad" having become a meme, it is entirely true. Clans are detrimental to the fun for everyone involved. Should there be dedicated moderation team at some point, it should pursue a no-tolerance policy towards clans, where clans are immediately deconstructed following toxic behavior and their leaders and members are banned. Should clans prove to be too influential besides these measures, they should be removed entirely from the game, e.g., if players are caught organising in clan-like associations, moderation will kick in and (perma)ban those players. Eventually, we could have a zero-clan game.

I miss the old pre-train days when not every resource field was gated off and "owned", everyone who showed up got a piece of the pie.

It cools down and almost never happens again after the 2nd day of a war.

      @@VikraalTheFluffDragon did you touch the harvesters or just the fields? Because if it was the former, yeah clans are pretty touchy about those and they should probably had signs up because their a bit more exclusive because they require more resources and manpower to run than the fields themselves. If they were getting mad at you for entering just the field I’m guessing it was the 27th or an 82DK officer having a really bad day as they’re the only clans I can think of who’d open up without warning. Also hope I’m not implying it’s in any way your fault because it’s not, I’m just trying to figure out what happened.

    I watched the "The Economy in Foxhole is Tanking!!" video about war 112's resource boost earlier today. Was that boost to resources still in place when this war 115 drama occurred?

    • @RobertLovesGames
      @RobertLovesGames  5 місяців тому

      That resource boost is no longer in the game for now. They actually made it worse to gather some resources unfortunately.
      It should be noted though that coal from that war to this war has overall not been effected by these changes. Funny enough you normally don't see clans fighting over coal fields. It's normally component fields or oil fields.
      Hope that helped answer your question!

    • @Jamesc5531
      @Jamesc5531 5 місяців тому

      ​@@RobertLovesGames Yeah, that sufficiently answered my question. I was just thinking on how much of an effect that resource boost would have on resource drama like this; though at the same time I wonder if any system--side changes made by devman can have a positive impact on the social dynamics of the player-base while not having too much of a detrimental effect on the wider gameplay. Perhaps something can be done at resource mines given the primary method of interacting with it is through a UI and Devman has more room to work with, but I'm really not sure what could be done for resource fields when there really isn't any kind of system(that I am aware of) effecting fields besides respawn timers. I also find it interesting that this drama revolves around a resource that you can only get from a field by scrooping(or stationary harvester).

    The only team kills I've ever had are from the logistic clans taking things too seriously or just being asses. They're usually the ones shouting toxic stuff too. Also a 3rd party app though useful is not a game mechanic and therefore anyone complaining that people don't use it is Parton the problem. Especially since these clans and players they're happy to team kill

      It's a tough spot with 3rd party programs and those who use it and those who don't for sure.

    War 117 we had 2 trains smash into each other and then sit for 90 minutes up in Howl. They were sitting on a wye the whole time. While that was going on 2 trains tried to bypass the 2 that were facing off only for them to be stuck facing each other 20 minutes. The claim system though, our regiment needs to have a coal field for our war eco, if we do not have a coal field, we do no war eco. We can use over 1 million coal a day, sometimes we will even have people donate coal from other locations and our sulphuric reactors still be out of coke. Then you find the coke refineries have no coke had to pull coke from other sulphuric reactors a couple times this past war just to kick start the coke production

    For me its such bullshit to "privatize" resources in a war game that the ultimate goal is to win the war that I started to ignore those signs and just get the resources i want to use and put them in public storage later after refining

      Private resource fields don't sit right with me either. I just got into foxhole and I've only seen one so far. but I personally think that built harvesters should be modified (added in to the map proper, not player placeable like the mines) and anything else should have a no place radius around the field so players cant realistically cocoon it in a facility and make it "theirs exclusively"

    An important thing to remember about WERCS specifically is that WERCS doesn’t disrupt the default first come first serve system. WERCS is just a way to organize first come first serve. If a non-WERCS clan gets to and builds on a field with a WERCS claim first the claim is immediately forfeit and WERCS moves on to mediation. If your facility gets Demolished by someone claiming to be doing it because of WERCS report them to a WERCS admin immediately!

    • @RobertLovesGames
      @RobertLovesGames  11 днів тому

      They only have a "say" because they say so. It's not supported by the devs in any way. This is where the conflict comes in. Ultimately these third party systems are trying to set up what's "best" for the faction. Because this is a team game it takes a lot of coordinating. Basically they want an experienced group taking over a resource field instead of inexperienced group. Like would you rather have a big clan that shares resources and plays an entire war at a resource field or a group that does not share resources and quits after the first week? This is the kind of things they deal with.

  • @johnd6155

    This reminds me of a situation in a different war I had. The first naval update war to be exact. When the wardens just got their submarine. And the islands were introduced. While most of my fellow WRA clan members were in the east maintaining naval superiority. I was off in the west defending the island in west gate code named by colonials: little Japan/Iwogema. It was a grueling fight. However it’s a story for another time. but this story takes place along the river. I found an abandoned base and oil field that was just rotting and decaying. And began a open to public effort to build a public naval base where anyone clan or not… could build a ship. A few hours in I already had lad the ground work and got the factories up and running. When this huge colonial clan. RED/T- something. Came in and tried to claim the refinery for themselves. They attempted to flag all the shit just to destroy it. Shortly after the wardens stormed the west gate hex and had little trouble taking it because one dumbass clan decided to destroy all the work people put in to defend that hex out of greed... we lost our islands all because we couldn’t build ships in the west.. 😢

    As a solo player or a member of a small clan, you are basically locked out of using some game mechanics, because still today bigger clans can just mass report you to oblivion (but never permanently).

  • @TarsonTalon
    @TarsonTalon 5 місяців тому

    The answer is YES. As in, if a clan laid claim to the field, but somebody got there first, they are obligated to attempt to absorb those who got there first, at least temporarily, into the clan. The deal is that they give up a little autonomy, in exchange for sharing in the clan's toys. As for me, I always claim for public, and thus don't have a whole lot of issues, as often what I build is very efficient regardless. Once there's a few public fields, the resource conflict disappears. Strange how that works.

    • @TarsonTalon
      @TarsonTalon 5 місяців тому

      There is one problem I've noticed: When a field is claimed by a clan, they tend build it in such a way that it's only efficient when there's a large number of people to work it. I once built a field, but then T-3C came along. They didn't kick me out, we just expanded it. However, once the war slowed down, and T-3C members were no longer coming with their trains, suddenly I had a huge msup drain that couldn't be justified anymore, and it wasn't really anyone's fault, but it was incredibly difficult for the small clans still in the war to use the field, because it was optimized to load trains that no longer existed.
      I think the rule should be that it isn't about who claims the field first, whether in game or in Discord, but who is willing to go the distance and manage the field the longest. Maybe keep track of peoples' war endurance, and award ownership based on that?

      That could work. Clans should just be willing to share resource fields in the first place. As Kronus mentioned the coal field can make 1.2 million coal a day and that is certainly plenty for just two clans to share.

    [KSR]Dark here i will say from perspective of long term Colonial i would say most successfull facility cooperations ive seen started with Civil Wars day 1 in 112 had such drama with 2 other regiments one was Chinese second was Russian (KSR and COG had Sigil Coop Claim on field) and we split field [KSR]Dark between all parties involved COG had their facility KRS had our Tank and Train facility and both of non Sigil clans had their reprocess facilities too. Similarly seen lot of spontaneous Coop's being born this way as funny as it sounds most of clans within faction dont know each other maybe (at best) 30% of Colonial Population uses Sigil so in most of Drama's this days its either Big Group vs Big Group (like in example you used in video where you had one of major producers of colonials vs big coalition. Second type of drama is clans from sigil vs non sigil those damas usualy are easly going off with negotiations teams from both sides. System isnt perfect (tweaks are needed) but its best we got without tools given by devs.

    As a solo player of around 5 years who recently dipped my toes into clan play....I think its more fun to be a solo.
    Clan play is:
    - Slow
    - Monotonous
    - Takes forever to undertake the simplest of operations and tasks due to convoluted rank structures.
    - Racked with self importance in silly discord "ranks"
    - Reasonably unhelpful towards newer players
    - Usually so tight knit that if you join as an outsider you are largely ignored.
    Save your sanity and stay solo. It makes for much more entertaining interactions and gameplay. Leave the silly little squabbles to the clans and just play your own game.
