Cities should not be able to operate at massive improvement imbalances. Running around with 40 improvements and 500 infra which only supports 10 improvements is very flawed.
Land destruction is along the lines of a nuke destroys 10% of the land in a city.
Again, destroying even more stuff is not going to help with balancing the game or improve player retention. The spy and planes situations need to be fixed before we start implementing ways to destroy even more stuff.

It's not public as far as I know. I don't know if Alex plans on releasing any sort of quarterly announcement sort of thing again. I'm currently working on a list for Alex to review that I hope to have finished this weekend. My goal is to prioritize some things that the community is seeking, however with the low responses to this thread it's kinda hard to see where to put a hard emphasis on.
What I can say, is I intent to release my list of content I'm developing. It's not just my ideas, it's other suggestions which have been made, ideas Alex has mentioned in the past, as well as some of my ideas. It's not just stuff I'm making by any means. How much of, if any of that list getting implemented is entirely Alex's call.Some of the stuff on the list are as follows:
- Projects which focus on new players (cheaper at small city counts, more expensive at higher)
- More ways to get project slots as a new player
- Ways for non-air units to damage air units.
- New project which allows for the creation of a new missile type that can be used out-side of the MAP system. It would function like spies, be limited to being fired at nations which you are currently in an active war with, and damage units.
- Damage roll-over. When nations are perpetually fighting at low infra, the damage they receive is minimal due to the damage caps, when the damage caps are activated, a portion of the damage rounded off will move towards non-military/power improvement destruction
- Improvement rundown. When operating at more improvements than infrastructure can support, non-military/power improvements will degrade every X days (1 improvement every 5 days sort of pace)
- New Day/rebuy reset customization so not everyone hits that point at the same time.
- Additional Space-based projects.
- Project designed to impact pollution.
- Quality of Life improvements (see: Adrienne thread)
- Ways to destroy land.
There might be more, but I don't have my list on this computer.
You do understand that having even more ways to destroy even more stuff will just drive more people out of the game during beatdown wars? By allowing more improvements and land to be destroyed when you are already getting crushed is not an incentive to keep playing the game. For new or old players. You don't balance or improve the game by making it harder for the losers of a beatdown war to recover.

5 - Nation score ranges are silly, should base it on something that is not easy effected such as city counts, stopping 38 cities hitting a 9 city (sphinx did this last war)
You would probably need a city count limit and a nation score limit otherwise you would have fully built nations hitting beat down nations with impunity.
Also, do something about the spy situation. Being able to lose 40+ spies per day but only being able to buy 1 or 2 is just ridicules.

Uh, your planes don't sortie in defense?
Maybe you could set that up as a standing order... and really, having standing orders like either that or leaving soldiers not using munitions makes a lot of sense.

What Micchan means is that only planes can kill planes while planes can kill everything and this makes them very OP because once your planes are dead you have no defense against air attacks. If sheepy really wants to balance the game a bit, fixing this very glaring fault would be a good start.
I'm sure you already knew that though.

Guess the truth is gonna hurt too once they convince Alex you've been botting the whole time. What goes around comes around buddy. If all your gonna do is spew venom everywhere else might want to consider your own karma before it decides to bite you in the ass too.
Either way neither of us care to bugger off.
All he has to do is look at my patterns of play to know the truth. Bots don't have pauses in play when they get up to grab something to eat, go to the bathroom, take the dog out or play with the dog. I do all those things. I also don't play for several hours straight during the day. Just because you guys got caught cheating and got lightly punished for it doesn't mean everyone you think is cheating actually is. If your only proof is "he plays a lot of games" you should probably rethink your responses.

Alright enough dude, piss off. I've defended you a ton everytime Coalition A nations started accusing you of botting in baseball. So take your BS rhetoric elsewhere.
The truth hurts I guess, he couldn't give himself the roles so someone had to give them to him. It's just common sense. I'm sorry if that upsets you but it is what it is.

To all of you glad to see BK dead, please remember those of us who called it home.
Sure leo made you mad, and sure you wish us BK Knights well, but most of us would rather be back in our alliance again. This is a bad situation for everybody and the blame falls of many outside of BK and NPO.
Actually, the blame falls squarely on leo and curu. They did everything in their power to piss off everyone not bk, npo or goons. In the end they failed their members the most. It saddens me to see bk disband but leo and curu can just piss off for all the garbage they did.

Well funny thing is you urself I think or someone else had said they didnt know whom he was .... but my question was not if he did or didnt but if they had the right too ... and it dont matter whom it is but regardless entering into a private domain and then copying stuff with a false identity then making it public is ?
Where was all this moral outrage about log dumps when they were benefiting you after tCW left coalition B to support their allies?

Aside from the bot then .. does any member of ur mod team have the right to go into private owned channels or forums were they are members only access ? Only a question and not a accusation ?
Well, someone had to give him the role on discord to allow him to enter the channel or the proper permission on forums, so once again that would be a screw up by your people.

I have a feeling once people have cooled down they'll change their mind and realized they were acting in haste, and hopefully we'll see some of those alliances come back.
If they come back hopefully they will all have new leadership because their old leaders failed them.

Hope they do, taking a loan and refusing to pay is not the right way to do things no matter what side of the war you are on. I hope those who lost billions to BK hunt down those who remain for payments.
I wouldn't blame the rank and file members. From what I have heard the members have lost as much or more than the loans they owe.

Sure it is. BK's leaders failed their members in the worst way. Leo disbanded the alliance and deleted his nation. Curu made the alliance The Black Knights went into VM for a year. In doing so they defaulted on several loans that were given to them in good faith and stole billions from their members as well. Unless of course Curu has it hidden his new alliance even though that would be against the rules on bank hiding.

And I was reminded just now in the politicsandwar Discord, thanks BK for returning the stolen Bad Company bank.
Too bad they didn't pay back all the loans they took out and all the money their members had in the bank.

Mall, all your words are appreciated, I would like to quote you this, I cannot talk in behalf of all my fellow brothers of BK, but I deleted my nation not because I think that other will not accept me. That is the least of concerns.
I deleted by the lack of morals that @Alex holds, by his inneptittude to set clear and fair rules, by his lack of attention to potential security breaches in his code, at the end, you and I are players, today you were enemy and tomorrow ally (Except EM, he is a Zero to the left). That is the amazing thing of Internet games, we build through connections, but when administration is neglect and arbitrary, better walk out.
Tho, I will add you in discord and perhaps in a near future we could cross ways in another community.
But thanks for your kind words.
Someone drank way too much of the kool-aid I see.

Actually, it is black and white. You guys were trading real world goods for in-game goods. That is against the rules and always has been. So you were cheating and got caught and are now trying to do damage control but no one is buying it so you might stop wasting everyone's time and just give it up.

Well Leo, I told Curu that you guys had sold your soul to the devil and I guess now it's time to pay the butchers bill. It's just too bad you had to take a proud and active alliance with you. While I wish you well in RL, I won't miss your massive douchebagery in the game.

Quite honestly, if a few, or more than a few cheaters and their friends quit the game because the cheaters got caught and punished rather lightly. I don't see how that hurts the game in any way. Cheaters suck and should be banned permanently, so they got off easy.

God you're vile lmao.
No, I just don't suffer fools gladly. Coalition B's actions during this war have been reprehensible The total garbage of the peace terms and the way the peace talks were conducted are total bullshit. So now that npo has been found to be cheating and been lightly punished for it you are all oh poor us, admin is so unfair. If you are going to leave, please do so but just stop with the pity party. You have way better options than you ever offered the people you were fighting in the war. So suck it up or get out, but for all that is holy, shut the hell up.
-
Oh FFS, enough with the pity party. You guys screwed up and tied yourselves to IQ and now hat it isn't working out you want to quit. You got white peace and a 6 month NAP. So you have 6 months to try and mend the fences you tore down during this stupid war. So either suck it up and do so or shut the hell up and leave.

Is that why you stayed in an alliance that forced a 6 month war on an opposing coalition, until they themselves were forced to switch sides?
You might want to talk to Sphinx about how I felt about staying in the war after about 4 months and what my feelings were/are about the peace terms and talks.

Good to see. At least someone has some common sense and isn't crying in their beer.

I thought ignoring you would show that people aren't interested in making the discussion about something else other than the actual topic but evidently you don't care.
Maybe take some time for reflection? Or not. I don't care in the end, you seem to be part of the problem based on this comment.You guys acted like complete and total asses during the war until NPO got caught cheating and got punished so now that you can't win the war any longer you are pissing and moaning about the game and leaving. Please just shut up and leave already.

Biggest complaints regarding gameplay.

All these things would do would be to allow the bigger/winning side to pin down and curbstomp the smaller/losing side even more than they can now. All these things would do is lead to even more inactivity during long wars and not improve the balance or player involvement. Why would people keep logging in if all they could do was read the attack messages against they nation and watch their nation be destroyed every day?
