Avruch Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Sheepy, Can you share with the class the real statistics on how many missiles launched against nations with an Iron Dome are deflected and how many land? The project page says 50%, but many many people have recently been reporting much, much lower deflection rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargun Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Just remember it's not 50% of missiles *will* be blocked, only that it's got a 50% chance for each individual missile. And people whose Iron Domes *do* work aren't going to complain about it, so you're only going to see the failure stories. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avruch Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 Just remember it's not 50% of missiles *will* be blocked, only that it's got a 50% chance for each individual missile. And people whose Iron Domes *do* work aren't going to complain about it, so you're only going to see the failure stories. A 50% chance for each missile means that you might get 10 missiles launched at you and see 6 or 3 or 8 blocked. But on average, over a large number of missiles, the amount blocked should be half or nearly. And yes, reporting bias, etc. etc. obviously. That's why I asked for the actual statistic.

Administrators Alex Posted October 28, 2015 Administrators Share Posted October 28, 2015 I don't know that we keep those numbers exactly. I might be able to come up with something by sorting through Notifications. As stated though, when you launch a missile it's randomly assigned a 50% chance of success when launched. Given a large enough sample size, that's what it'll be, and even if the current stats showed that 55% of missiles got blocked that doesn't impact your actual odds at all. Quote Is there a bug?

Administrators Alex Posted October 28, 2015 Administrators Share Posted October 28, 2015 Looking at notifications since the beginning of October, 748 missiles were blocked by Iron Domes. The number of missiles that have successfully hit is well over 1,000, however that number is obviously skewed because out of all the missiles that did hit, not all were launched at targets that had the Iron Dome. So, unfortunately, I can't really give you a direct statistic for this. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Hysteria Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) Yeah its just a matter of chance.The first war (THE SERVER RESET WAR) ID was 2/5. This most recent war ID was 4/5. So thats 60% blocked for me personally.

Greatnate Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 How much work would it be to add a "Missiles Blocked" statistic? I imagine it would make answering this question a lot easier, I know I would be interested in tracking those stats for my aa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiki Mod Dr Rush Posted October 29, 2015 Wiki Mod Share Posted October 29, 2015 This war: 0/2 have hit me. 5/5 have hit their targets. I'd say this mechanic is purely decided by ones faith in Dio & the description should be changed to reflect that. 1 Quote 23:38 Skable that's why we don't want Rose involved, so we can take the m all for ourselves 23:39 [] but Mensa is the cute girl at the school dance and she's only dancing with us right now to get our friend jealous 23:39 [] If Rose comes in and gives Mensa what she wants, she'll just toss us aside and forget we ever existed 23:39 zombie_lanae yeah I do hope we can keep having them all to ourselves 23:40 zombie_lanae I know it's selfish but I want all their love 6:55 PM <+Isolatar> Praise Dio Pubstomper|BNC [20:01:55] Rose wouldn't plan a hit on Mensa because it would be !@#$ing stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Lord Grayshadow of Recluce launched a missile upon your nation of Emile. The attack was unsuccessful because Dio Brando shot down the missile before it hit. 2 Quote ☾☆ Warrior of Dio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
