hi5 Adjustments

    Hello Players,
    Late last week a change was made to the number of hired a hi5 player can bring into battle. We didn't make a big announcement about it as we didn't forsee it as a problem. As previously mentioned, I posted that Kano would be monitoring and making adjustments to hi5 players after the transition was complete. While I can't rule it out, at this time we do not see the need to do any further adjustments.

    The change made to hired limits the number of hired a hi5 player can bring into battle. We allow a player to bring all of their friends into battle, however, depending on level it may mean you can take no hired. For the moment, this is the only change we have made.

    Why are we continuing to make these adjustments? We are doing this to try and right our own mistake in this transition. Essentially, we created a situation where a number of hi5 players created accounts with exceptionally high number of friends and hired at lower levels. This change puts players more inline with how they would have progressed in hi5. It is important to note not all were taking advantage of this situation but yes a few people can ruin it for everyone!

    Going forward, it is my intention to continue to monitor players and those who continue to abuse the system. Do not camp out at a level and rack up thousands of battle kills because you have an advantage over the players around you. This is going to get you banned. You are taking advantage of our generosity in moving you to a new network and griefing other loyal players who worked hard to get to where they are.

    Thanks players, we appreciate your continued support!
     
  2. Nice. Taking a firm stand. I think Kano would have been better off if they had done just as the other developers did, who were abandoned by hi5. Which was nothing. I bet none of those developers received 29 pages worth of complaints. The developers tried to do something nice and it backfired.

HI5 player is working really hard on FB to level up over again, going it as a team.... we got the most hard job.... START EVERYTHING AGAIN..... would a FB player at a level 3000+ start everything again???

    I understand where you're coming from with this but lets say a player does not have the time to level really fast like you want him/her to. Or he/she didnt find a leveling partner or any other reason why he cant level up fast. Should he/her be banned for this?
    I totally agree some took advantage of your generosity but lets not generalize...
    I can only speak for LCN as i dont really play any other game but some players are already over lvl 1100 in LCN, some are at 800, 600 and the list goes on depending on the skill of the player and the time and interest allocated to leveling.
    Just because he/she didnt get to the level you want does not mean he/she's camping and racking up kills.
    It's just hard not to kill someone who didnt play for over a year and has only 10-50 mobs... Ghost players exist, you know it and us the players know it too.

    The Protector Banned

    So,if a facebook player were to buy the full clan at level 325,you would basically be feeding the hi5 players to that one player.Or will anyone camping at a lower level with large clan get banned?

    needs to be said over and over :)
     
  10. Totally agree Linda I think you guys need to take a step back and be thankful you can still play the game, and to get transfer packages for your troubles. An even better deal, yes you have to start over but you have a HUGE advantage over everybody else that did here on Facebook :)

    2 mods chating on topic and no answer to my question :(
     
  12. Pedro at this point we don't know the ins and outs of the changes, I can't give you an answer to your question, because I simply do not know.

    Thanks :)

    We're seeing a lot of hi5 players cheating on FB is what we're seeing.

    Has nothing to do with leveling fast, we're seeing some players camped out at the same level for weeks but racking up hundreds of kills. That implies they're not moving forward and simply griefing other players.

    and for that you're punishing all players that came from Hi5 ?
    if you are indeed monitoring, then why don't you take measures against those players ???
    and another thing, you said that at level 1000, all chieftains will be unlocked. that DIDN'T happen. i am still about 250 HC short.(i have more than 1000 added chieftains).

    Level up, you will gain access to them as you level. It's simply restricted how many you can bring into battle at your level. There's a cap.

    We're not entirely prepared to divulge the math behind it. It's not overly complicated, you can take all your friends into battle until a point, we look to hired to max out your cap if you don't have enough friends.
     
  19. This will actually slow some of us down because we have to invest more in attack and defense rather than stamina/energy, so yeah again, not a smart move.
     
  20. Yeah some developers used the guillotine, Kano is going with the drip water on forehead torture. I guess it's more fun...
