Also, I can't get the capture mechanic to work. I created a company, I'm a member, and I'm in a tower courtyard, but the counter isn't showing as per the blog.
Same here - created a company, standing next to tower and nothing. I also don't see any companies in the "search companies" window, not even mine.

Towers appear to be bugged.
Finding Companies...
That works if (in that window) you enter part of a company's name and search.
I would like to figure out if I apply, does the leader "accept" and I am in?

The Tower capture mechanics seem heavily weighted towards the capturing companies. 1000 pts / (30 pts/5 seconds) is 167 seconds IF you have 30 folks in the control zone the whole time, and with a single character it is 5000 seconds (83 minutes 20 seconds) - but the # of points does not get reduced unless there are ZERO characters from that company in the control zone...

How do you manage companies and settlements in-game?
The link to the blog: sorry, too much to paste and format.

Being invited to a company that is dissolved locks you into that invite,
you cannot decline or accept it, you get the "you do not have a pending company invite" error
nor can you be invited to another new company, because when invited, the inviting company leader receives the " <name> is viewing a different invite" error

1. Well done. This is huge.
2. Good lesson here for some of the people who have been unfairly sour and negative. At the very least, some of the folks here weren't even close to "reasonably patient." GW has been super upfront about the process, and each patch has been a steady climb up. I see no reason to be anything other than very heartened.
Well said.

+1 to this bug, I'm having the exact same problem with one of my characters.
Also a command that did not get mentioned in the blog:
/vcleave (to leave a company).
When you do get an invite and you do /vcaccept, then neither you nor the inviter gets a notification. You have to refresh the COmpany window, and then you will see the name appear under members.
I also had odd stuff happening to the little sword icon at your minimap: it was there for one of my characters that were standing at the tower, but not the other two. (It was 5 minutes earlier though). Also, the popup of the icon did not mention any company acquiring points but I am thinking this is the problem Ryan was referring to.
Thanks for the update!

Not seeing a recent topic for this in the Alpha Forum. Log in to find myself mysteriously 6 hexes south of OV. So I suck it up and run for home. I get within 1 hex and go to the sky. and wind up MANY hexes south in Marchmont.
This must be pretty frustrating for new people trying the game out. Is there a fix in the works?
Edit: Hmmm.... complete patcher restart got me mysteriously within 1 hex of OV again. Here goes....
Home!

I didn't realize we were declaring. OV has two that I know of, and we're working on a third.

Have you tried logging another character to create a company with the same name, then seeing if you can kick them or leave?

Whew! Just a Company named The Wolves.
For a second, I thought you meant the mind-controlling wolves and their enthralled Thornguards had occupied a tower!

I ported from near Alderwag to near Kindleburn.
I Quit, Waited, and Restarted, but I was still near Kindleburn.
I ran to Thornkeep, then ran to a hex between Ossian's Crossing and Freevale.
I ported back to the Kindleburn area again.
I Quit, Waited 2 minutes, and Restarted, and I was back in the Ossian's/Freevale hex again.

Right. Only in some cases and sometimes. I got moved to Kindleburn today too. Nothing but jogging would fix it. ;)

I read through the blog on the Settlement UI but I am not seeing it on my screen. Likely I'm blind. Any tips on its whereabouts are greatly appreciated :)
You can only open the UI via a keyboard command, /companysearch. Once it's open, you can either left click once in the Search Companies text box, type nothing, and hit Enter, to see a list of all companies created before the last server downtime, or type part of a company name in the box to search for that company. Left click the company in the list to see it in the right-hand column.

Hmmm, okay. I don't see anything for Settlement. Thanks again for your help.
I think some Settlement actions, like pledging a Company to a Settlement becoming a Settlement leader, are actually being done through direct email to GW.
Edit: Here's the relevant quote.
Settlement Management
/settlementapply settlementname, companyname
This command will send an application to Settlement settlementname on behalf of Company companyname. The Settlement leader will need to review these applications on the Alliance tab of the Settlement information panel that opens when the name of a Company in the Settlement is clicked in the Company search control. No notifications are delivered of these applications so the Settlement leader will need to check this queue regularly.
Becoming a Settlement leader requires a manual step performed by the Goblinworks staff as described earlier in this blog.

That's what I'm gathering from reading and listening to others. I sent an email to set myself up as the Settlement manager for Keeper's Pass and was checking to see what I would see in game. At the moment I can search for companies and look at some tabs for them but nothing as far as Settlement info goes. Figured I would ask around first before bugging customer service.

It sounds like they may not have processed your request yet. I'd give them a couple of days before contacting Customer Service.
