Well in response to each of the points you brought up
1) yes this would make warring more complicated. Gangs would need to take on players of all levels to effectively compete in wars. Also preventing any gang from having 90% of all the highest levels and rolling everyone, much as we saw in months past with the Elders, (btw I'm not knocking them at all, there was just alot of controversy over them in the past just pointing that out)
2) I would venture to guess that the trainers are now a more used, if not more effective money sink into the game, and while you are correct that this does negate one of the areas you can sink money into for travel, it also is the cheapest one available to that player so they will technically be spending more assuming they have to travel just as much without the option to spend money on a trip to decatur for example. For instance, lets say you can spend 10$ to goto decatur, 100$ to goto industrial, 500$ to goto rural and 1000$ to goto midlan, make 4 trips, in any combination, then eliminate decatur as an option and make 4 trips, changing your trips to decatur to something else. It won't be possible for you to spend less money that you did before giving that you choose decatur atleast once. (and if you don't whats the point of having it anyway?)
3)I think it most definitely would cut down on the number of online attacks, as you'd be forced to hit people closer to your level, doing more damage to you possibly preventing you from attacking 3 times and not allowing you 3 "free" kills each full refresh.
Finally, most people log in when they can. on an average week day you have different times of day you can get to AL. The general populace doesn't sit in front of a computer all day long. If I had time to stay online all day, I certainly would. But this wouldnt fix the problem. If everyone adjusts there play to stay online as much as humanly possible, you'd simply see people then getting hit online as a result. |
