Topic: New Direction?

It's becoming a bit tedious to see the galaxies being set up time and time again without much thought process.  I know mods discuss it in their forum for a while, but throwing the same round set up out every time is boring.  Now i could drone on about PW is a fools galaxy and anyone who plays here may as well not play period.  But.  Could we not use this as a chance to try out a different game play style.  I don't wanna rival these boring HC galaxies that only 3 people play seriously.  But could we not trial PW with say 30 minute ticks?  Just something of a different pace.  PW & MW is free to play, so why make them the same?  If people don't like shorter ticks, play MW.

Re: New Direction?

Orbit, the setup of PW this time is purely a stop gap measure. We are conducting testing for a SS gal with a few nifty features as something to reinvigorate the game a bit. Be patient for a little bit and try out this new galaxy (when it comes up) and see how that goes.

Re: New Direction?

yes but a SS gal would be under the HC class.  Im talking about free playing normal galaxies, not special ones.

Re: New Direction?

Render, this SS galaxy is not a normal galaxy, forget about special/HC.  I'm discussing PW here.

this is not possible as far as I know, tiks lenght would affekt all the gals, unless you open a bakup program on another server just for PW.
But yeas I get your main idea and agree, bekause playing the same thing on and on is leading to game ekstintion.

Re: New Direction?

I say 'sadly' ...cos "Speed" of a Uni, would be a great differentiator. 

I mean ...last round in PW we had full Drafts, and last round MW had 1 draft and mostl y randoms.  It's kinda reversed.  yes it was one-off, but the point is, there's only so much we've been able to do.  Ie, stats/spec-wise, there's nothing really that different anymore between the galaxies.

If we could have speed of ticks as differentiating Universes, that would be the most ideal!
