Lack of offline protection will cost the game

You're right about "Potato AI quality" And time windows, too. My friend and I have different time windows, and 1 of us even has employee monitoring software and another timezone.

guys at the time of MO1 there were no global gaming communities like now (over 500 people). Now one community can go into the game with 500+ (for example) people and sweep whatever they want into offline raids. and no NPCs will help protect it. You think the old fashioned way.

That's bullshit, huge global gaming communities have been around for decades. Most of them just didn't give a shit about this game and probably still don't.

The easiest solution is just make sieges take longer and more effort. Destroying in-game assets should never be a quick thing to begin with. There needs to be a balance between damage and repair as in offense and defense but all in all these things should take time and planning.
Artificial and offline, timing, protection features are stupid and so are quick ninja sieges. They are both equally casual care bear shit.

As long as I can raid your pallisade/keep and dont have to siege for pvp, then sure, it can take all effort you want. Leave sieging to the no lifers like RPK and ID xD

It is quite suprising to see so many people arguing to have the least fun gameplay as possible.

Most people who like pvp want to fight, they dont want offline siege, they dont want 5 days pve boring siege. They want epic, they dont want realistic...

We just need windows siege at prime time for more people being able to play. Then, we will play a good and fun event !

That's why my idea doesn't require you to stand around sieging if you aren't being actively contested. The problem with "We just need window siege at prime time" is whose prime time are you talking? Will it be American guys waking up at 3am? EU guys? Aussies? Which timezone is actually allowed to hold territory?

The prime time is for the defender of course doesnt matter if they are EU, US ...
