Can't you just bypass lockout timers with a VPN? The lockout timer is stupid to begin with

What do you think about a reward for being locked into one realm for x-amount of played days ?
Rewards for just being there? No thanks.

Honestly, I hope it happens so that people can whine about something else. It's always anecdotal BS that I really doubt has as big of an impact as people claim.

I xrealm and hope this happens too not because I want it to happen but just so that both realms see that they are in fact just a buncha whiners. Side note this is a waste of dev's time people will just vpn please provide a solid argument for that!

commitment is real issue in xrealming.
you just can't switch friend-foe mental by 1 click, unless entire team switch.
in that case your friends are same, easier to commit.

call it realm pride or whatever.
because there are hundreds of other players( former enemies ) in 1 side, you need time to blend into that faction.
otherwise you don't commit for faction.
you don't guard or heal like you were in former realm. not willing to do hard work like push, funnel block.
just get the reward so i can switch again for another reward.

90m is too short to make mind for commitment.
8 hours like live, sound ok to me.

If you want realmpride you need to make realms matter and that means reverting all the loser rewards introduced, e.g. only sov for the attacking realm. I doubt the "xrealming is bad" crowd is really up for that.

This is how it used to be and back then we had real realmpride and realm co-operation. As someone pointed out a few pages back, this game is more guild based than realmbased. Why should I care aboutrealm when the only thing that matters in the end is if my guild/group wins? Personally, I think the guild based gameplay is fine. I just pointed out what realmpride really means in practice. Going on about realmpride and faction lock when realm performance means nothing at all in game is misdirected. Faction lock does not create any realmpride.
