So round 36

The hillbillies have gotten there way and were going to have an entire round where we play with people we don't know and the top allies cant win as they cant cope without fortress gals (LOL YEA RIGHT)
So im asking that you then allow us in round 36 to actually play with people we like and know and therefore bring back private galaxies.. Seems fair they get a round we get a round, same allies will win but heh least both sides get a turn :P

Re: So round 36

I'm not particularly opposed to the changes we're seeing for round 35. The worst one (1 exile a day) has been withdrawn. Late joining never achieved what it aimed to, so seeing its influence reduced is something I applaud. Buddy pack size is not something I care about much.

Re: So round 36

Changes for r35 are nothing but smoke screens to hide the fact that nothing has been done to improve the game.

Re: So round 36

i think the changes are a good mix considering the options, no problems with them at all.

to say there has been nothing done to improve the game is a bit bull as tbh the attack system was utter crap before and improving it will help the lower alliances.

With that done hopefully cin and appoco will have time to make changes to the game itself for r36.

Guess your talking about single targetting? It will mean that smaller alliances will find it harder to get defence while attacking as a whole gets easier.

The quality difference between (say) Apprime and F-Crew isn't so much in attacking as it is in defence. By making attacking easier, defence gets a lower priority, which will reduce the gap between good and bad alliances.

I did get a lot of defence last round from F-Crew, but I also gave a lot in defence. I only attacked about a dozen times in the whole round.

But perhaps it will be better for attacking to be more prevalent than defence, as most people will try to attack than defend.

But in that same way perhaps defence should be removed from the game altogether (as has been discussed in another thread). However removing defence brings a problem of fleet catching to an all time high.

So perhaps we need to remove the fixed time to attack...

Be that as it may, if your alliance can send night time defence, then your alliance can launch effective attacks. But the fact that you can set up attacks at 22:00 does not necessarily mean your members will be around at 03:00 to send defence.

Retarded for reasons in that other thread.

I don't understand what you mean, explain? (Perhaps in a PS thread.)

To me it´s pretty much the other way round, limiting options of cooperation doesn´t motivate me at all. Also, I still don´t see the point (except maybe for catering everyones grudge against Apprime and Ascendancy). Changing game mechanics to probably counter a handful of possible out of tag support planets (out of tag support planets when there´s plenty of tag space available, lol) and limit the options of everyone on how to play is not exactly what I consider to be a smart move.
Anybody who´s involved in bringing up this stuff care to elaborate why this isn´t an anti-Asc/App change?
Thanks.


Also, to adress MrLobsters suggestion of removing def alltogether: I can honstely say that would be the point I´ll quit playing despite me being a complete addict. Defense has always been a part of PA, if you scrap it, what´s left in the game anyway?

Re: So round 36

Look on the bright side, rul3r, this change means Ascendancy will be able to raid any alliance we like!

Re: So round 36

I welcome a return to single targeting, i much prefer it to multi (must be the lazy dc in me) i'm intrigued to see how it affects the hand people will play. No doubt there are some alliances who are more offensive than others and will prosper under such conditions. Bring on the round :-)
