Conqueror's Blade News

Hi Warlords:

Since its operation, Conqueror’s Blade: Frontier attaches great importance to providing healthy game environment for players, and never tolerates the wanton pollution and trampling of the game environment by third-party software. For this reason, we have also officially launched the reporting and anti-cheating system. As of August 19, we have banned three groups of cheating players by monitoring abnormal data of players in the background and publicized them in the community.

In order to crack down on cheating more vigorously, we have also decided: starting from this Friday, we will regularly publish the list of cheating players banned in the community every Tuesday and Friday.

In addition, you can also conduct a spontaneous report, with their own strength to combat cheating, to create a healthy game environment to contribute a force. We will also provide incentives to players who report and verify information for a long time. At present, you have the following two ways to report:
1. In-game reporting system
Either in or out of battle, you can right click on a player's character ID to report cheating. We will check the report information through the background, and take measures to block the player after confirmation.

At present, some players might meet problems such as "report system is not open" or "can only report teammates but not the enemy", we are in the urgent repair. It’s a fledgling system, so please feel free to contact us (at the end of this article) if you have any suggestions on it.

2.Outside reporting way

In addition, you can also send the report information to us through the following contact information (it will be better to have pictures or video as proof).

Dear Warlords,：
Great thanks to your support toward the Conqueror’s Blade. To create a realistic cold-steeled battlefield, huge efforts were devoted to maintaining the fairness in the conqueror’s blade after the game came into official operation and any behavior that pollutes the game environment with illegal programs will not be spared.

For the past few days, we analyzed the runtime data of suspicious users based on player’s report, we decided to permanently ban the account of those who either use the illegal third-party cheating program or falsify the data in the game. The third patch name list of 8 players whose accounts are banned are listed as following :

冰吻
先公子
HeyxE1Lve
**真是Dog
我真的太帅了
喵喵大侠来了
тшьфишыш
Цйтьписфщтшьф

We’ll make every endeavor to purify the game environment. The reporting system has been officially launched. You can right click on the role name to report. We also need help from all the Warlords and if you find any suspicious in game behaviors you are welcome to report to us directly.

2.Hawk Eye system
In order to help the Warlords better grasp the dynamics of the battlefield, adopt the corresponding marching strategy and change the current tactical square to make the best judgment. After careful consideration, we decided to add a new tactical perspective to the Warlords in the battlefield – Hawk Eye.

Dear Warlords, firstly, please allow me to introduce myself, I am a numerical designer from Conqueror’s Blade: Frontier development department. Here, for today, I would like to discuss with you about the Honor weekly cap we implemented in last patch and share our thoughts and incoming optimizations towards this mechanism.

First of all, the purpose of Honor weekly cap mechanism is to narrow the gaps between different kind of players to create a better game experience. Our development team read all the feedback on this new design carefully and we will keep doing that in the future as well, meanwhile, we are planning to do some optimizations based on them.

Many of you believe that the design of the Honor weekly cap is not that reasonable of calculating not only battle settlement Honor rewards but also some systems beyond that like quests. After careful consideration, we are agreed that honor rewards from non-combat which does not require a lot of game time should be considered as equal for all players. At the same time, we observed that, involving non-combat honor rewards in the cap may hurt players’ enthusiastic of joining in these game plays and this is supported by our data analysis results as well.

Therefore, based on your feedback, we are thinking of optimizing the design of Honor gain weekly cap in this way:

1. Only the Honor rewarded from battle settlement will be calculated in Honor weekly cap. Other approaches like daily quests, weekly quests, fief quests, secret vaults, and Honor reward items will not be included.
2. When you reach the Honor weekly cap, your Honor rewards from battle settlement will be converted into Bronze according to a certain ratio.

In addition, many of you have reported that the honor weekly cap is not friendly and fair enough for new comers, which would bring bad game experience when they try to catch up faster. Generally, we are agreed on this point and we are thinking of a new catch-up mechanism to solve this problem. Please give us some more time to think it through and do a full implementation.

Last but not the least, I would like to say something, on behalf of development team, our responsibility and goal is to build a good experience for all of our gamers. We should admit that we still have a long way to go, especially on the design aspect. To take care of the interests of all kinds of players, sometimes, the outcome of a certain design may out of our expectations. The ideas and feedback from all of you are very important to us. We will keep up our work in community and pass our thoughts directly, only with you standing by us, we could build the world of Conqueror’s blade: Frontier better. Thank you and wish you the best!

Dear Warlords, we expect to have an hot-update at 16:00 on August 16th, Beijing time. The players who are already in the game will not be affected. After the game is exited, the client will be updated automatically.
