Topic: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

I know mods always say lets the players do the round and since theirs about a week left in the round lets get some ideas out and get a round format setup for next round so it dont take no 3-4 days to setup the round...

~Preseleted Leaders... TBH the Round with the Preselected Leaders has been the most decent round since i dunno when and even tho it wasnt that good it was still a good round for majority of people~


~Bring back the draftings.. Atleast 1 player per fam.. should be good enough hell alot of people like to play with alteast 1 player they know.. i know its about splitting up all the good players but hell cant hurt to do 1 draft. I think we lost a few players due to the no Drafting...

~ All Random no Deletes.. we could leave it like it is but i doubt many would wanna leave it this way.. this round was boring to many so i dunno if thats gonna be a good idea, but lets see what others think

Anyone else has any suggestions?

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

i think pre selected leaders would work better. it has a good competitive feel to it. major downside with what happened was the lop sided map which made the round shitty. but the idea was good.

also as a pw players i usually favour non drafting. but in these cases i think 1 draft per fam (only made available by leader) would help. since the player level is dwindling at an all time low it cant hurt to lure back a few players and it could help with revitalising a bit.

or

have stay in fam option. if no drafts then this will help, you make friends with new people then wont play with them again. this was the sole reason pw thrived. you got to spend 2 rounds (approx 8-12 weeks) getting to know people and making friends which would liven up forums and chat. getting rid of this - or at least not adapting it to suit dispersal of 'good' players - was a death sentence. hard to bring new members into the community if you dont get much time to know people.


the delete issue. no delete for the first RL week. after that optional but you only get 1-3 deletes per round.

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

I personally won't play next round in SB unless we allow drafting again. I thought it would be fun to have all randoms but it sucked. Like Flashy said, you end up playing with strangers whom you never expect to see again. Not fun.

I like the pre-selected leaders idea...but I think we have maybe 4 good ones? What about 4 large families?

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

For next SB round, i'd go for:

- Pre-selected leaders
- one draftee at least, at most 2
- all random, no deletes
- 1-1.5 months duration

..basically what IC death and flashy have said

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

There should always be the option to play again with people for atleast another round ... No real idea why this ever stopped

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

yeah, why did that option get erased??? When you finally get to know the people in your fam, learn how to work togheter and your family has finally only active players, you got to start all over again cause the round has ended.

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

its because fams were becoming uber stacked. if you got a good bunch in the first round then when you went into the next round you would be likely to get more of the 'good' players available.

that is why i said somehow it should be adapted so maybe the spots of a family that has lots of people staying take up random spots to begin with. - not sure that makes perfect sense lol

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

4 uber fams would be insane but hell it wouldnt work.. after fighting once or twice everyone would be NAPPED or u would see a few 2v1's.. i agree atleast 1 draft has to be done tho.. cause their are people willing to play with a friend.. hell i know people who will return if u could just get a draft in.. but the question may be what size fams are we talking about.. I'd say 8-10.. or the 8 players and add one each time.. but i still personally would like the preselected leaders so we know how many fams we got..

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

dunno about others....but this round was good and nice in my opinion. the only problem i saw was some leaders (and fams) decizion to kill smaller fams. in rest all was kinda ok.
good to see leaders like Sourlemon who cares about something else.....not just about win and kill.
good job to ICD, Shadow, Dimpel. i liked the way you played.

oh and guys....learn to like nap cancelation and wars after nap....they are fun, and everyone is happy. bankers and ressies can grow, oppers can make passive ops, and you attackers (mainly leaders) will have time to war. lets change a little the way we think. it can be very fun!

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

That's true flashy but that principal never effected pw would you say? We always had 1 stay in fam round and I think that's what built the community ...

Also 1 round of a super stacked fam doesn't hurt the game if anything it makes the other fams step their game up, I'm not speaking of how mw was they obtained stacked fams from drafts and like 3 stay in fam rounds which imo ruined the game not to mention the extremely long rounds

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

bring back 1 draft yes please

=> maybe let VIP draft into any fam they want even if drafts are full
=> get more cash in the game, then IC can hire a full time programmer and improve the game (start working on the idea's list, work enough!)
=> improving the game will lead into more players/returning players and so on.. win win everywhere

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

You guys keep going on about drafts it's not drafts were missing it's stay in fam rounds, drafts killed the game staying in fam for one round builds relationships with randoms

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

you're right Cloud. 1st round - get stuff sorted.  2nd round - be excellent and have fun smile

its one of the reasons why ic became great - its community, the friendships built up over a couple rounds of teamwork.

i was told that the stay in family option got screwed up, but tbh i think it was a ploy by that person to get rid of it for unknown reasons. but whatever, its a good start to rebuilding the game i think ....

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

i think they are   some good ideas ,i want to play but time is a factor for me (thats lack of) i will play though >>> i think maybe start the round with all fams napped for first rl week, have only 6 fams.... after rl week all naps are canceled. I also think half naps good where u can make a core nap but outside core up for grabs so 2 fams want a core nap they list systems under terms and everything else open for attacks this way u cant completely kill a fam .. What to u guys think ?

what is in a name if its not a respected one
so play with honor and they will remember your name with respect and if u dont [taste the rainbow]

Re: ~Next Round SB Setup Suggestion~

umm should be interesting i must say.. we will see.. i wish we can narrow down to 1 so we can get the round setup.. so far everyone or majority seem to agree Drafting atleast 1 player needs to be brough back.. what about the amount of fams.. how about 8-9 fams.. did honestly didnt work but what the hel.. how about this Preselected Leader List.. can we get 8-9 players...

good ideas, but why not condense it all into 1 idea and take a leaf out of supernova's book and have 3-5 (depending on how many people/families are playing) instant permanent family systems - non attackable.
