Question..

[Format]

I was wondering...whats going to stop people from achieving high ranks or even just knowing tactical plans of all three factions if you can just make 3 different characters each in a seperate one? Your not always going to have to be on the top to know when and where certain attacks are going to be on individual factions. Just a thought :rolleyes:

[DarkJaguar]

maybe the fact that you can only be in one faction per server?

[Incompetent]

your chars can only be in one empire on each server

edit: damn you

but still..theres no reason that someone couldnt just get a friend to join another faction, or even have 2 accounts on 2 different computers..yet that would cost alot:p

it is really inevitable, it happened in dark ages of camelot when 2 account people would blurt out HEY SO AND SO IS ATTACKING THIS AND THAT I KNOW CUZ I WAS SCOUTING HOAHAOHOAHA.

Ruined the aspect of surprise :\

And then you promptly appealed them, right? Or did you just let them carry on? The few crossteamers that exist to ruin things generally don't last long. Of the few crossteamers I ever saw, each I appealed, and each disappeared. They may be helping my side, but it's a game, it's suppose to be fair, and you're no better than they are if you stand by and let them continue to cheat.

As for this happening in PS, it's doubtful. There'll be some around at first, but once they get appealed by their own Faction, their numbers will dwindle. And then, the people who make plans on each server will begin to understand the importance of secrecy. People will, for example, be informed that an attack will take place at a certain time. Only when people are there and ready to move is the target announced. And if possible, at a fork in the road, the attack plan may be changed to another target along the same path. If there was a spy there the entire time, he may have actually hurt his home Faction's defense capability by unintentionally misleading him. All of that Faction's defenses would be waiting at a base that wasn't even going to be attacked, and the base would likely be taken before defenders could arrive. After a few deceptions, people would rely less and less on inside information, and more on their own capability. Thus, the problem becomes minimal as time progresses.

Plus, whos gonna believe some random Joe that just blurts out "X base is going to be attacked at noon"? I highly doubt we will see much spying of this nature in PS.
