hello!
recently i had a problem in my sk accounts (which forced me to start from the beginning ) and i managed to reached till tier 2(not sure gonna check again later). I was itching for a lockdown(haven't played lockdown for like 3-4years :P)
and i noticed- only tier 3 people are playing lockdown . After waiting for a long time too there was no luck. Is it actually dead? Or am i logging on at the wrong time? If it is the latter, then mention me the time according to greenwich mean time(GMT). If its the former then please tell a reason 'why' . I'd like to know it.
(please read the posts below to know!)
Thanks in advance.
lockdown dead in tier 1 and tier 2?( conversation changed to suggestions! Pls read to know what its about!)

Yes it is dead mostly because fights are actually longer in the lower tiers, almost impossibly long in T1 due to the fact that HP pad healing doesn't scale per tier (you can sit on an HP pad in T1 and stall for a long time).
Another reason is that it is much easier to get to T3 than a few years ago when progress was hampered by daily Mist energy when you could get 10 maybe 11 floors a day.
You still might be able to convince your guild and another to have a low tier match.

I would love to see more people in T1 LD myself. I feel it would be interesting, but sadly have not been able to encounter enough people willing to play it. For now, I'll just assume what Holy-Nightmare had said is correct.

@everybody thanks.
@ holy nightmare but dont you think tier 2 has hp scaling?so IMO there should be lockdown matches there.( i checked and im still in tier 1 so i have no idea whats happening in tier 2 LD)please correct me if im wrong.

@ Stars
T2 would be fine IF the players from T3 stayed up in T3. In fact T2 is quite fun when no one has super UVed gear, 4 weapons, BK, and trinkets. But when one of the ppl who frequent T3 come in they just suck all the fun out. What was a casual game between low tier knights just turns into slaughter the noobs.
Those who have been to T2 and experienced this probably won't join LD again because all they see is that it takes forever to get into a match and that the game is unbalanced so much it looks like a few guys are cheating.
There are some in T3 who are still nostalgic about T2 and join in the fight, out of respect they shouldn't bring their overpowered gear. Unfortunately most are too greedy and would rather suck up all the fun for themselves than actually try to have a balanced fight.

@Starskystrike: Your opinion without 3.14 is onion
Why not to add a mashine in haven which would inform players about it and tp to colloseum?

@snarby one word. ------------->#trolltastic or #trolloverload
@blade i think your idea wont be that much of help,as it may not effect it(AS we are still making matches according to our will which will cause all the lower exp people not to play LD). Stuff like matchmaking (like in lol as mentioned before ) should be done as 000 will be in control of the choosing the players according to their experience , not us .
Why not check this out?
this link has some info about the matchmaking in lol. Maybe even you might agree with me after that.

@Star
We would need a larger PVP community for matchmaking to make sense, still I would like to see some work going into a team balancing program to keep games from ending up as slaughters.

yeah..
@Holy-Nightmare:
I agree with you holy. Something like placing npc soldiers in there to fill in the missing players and scale the npc' difficulty to the amount of actual players joined. Something like the more players joined, the lower the npc difficulty. The less players joined, the higher the npc difficulty. This way, we would not have to wait for players to join all the time when playing LD or BN.
I think its dead because new players dont know that lockdown exists.
Hope you will get better comments soon.
