Topic: Mid-2017 checkin: Your Top 3

Hi everybody,

We're officially half way through the year.  There are plenty of things in the works but as always your guys' feedback is invaluable.  So on that note:

What are your top 3 requested changes and/or features?

This can be anything/everything.  No request is too small or too big, so don't be shy.

Let's hear it!

- mass attack
- formal alliances
- a normal way to share infills. Suggestion: a family intel page which logs all intel gaining ops.

Better new map functionality, with ability to create custom lists like adding in custom plists.

An investment bank style feature, with term-deposit-like setup, risk/reward.  Varying rates depending on level of conflict in galaxy maybe?  Not much war, not much rate.

some small catch up method for the lowest x amount of families, or let's say, the Robin Hood effect, maybe a galactic event, that steals from the rich to give to the poor.  Not crippling numbers, just something to help balance out things a bit.  This won't ruin a great family, but it will help a struggling one.

Edit: let the record clearly state I was in the top family last round I played, this round I'm in the second family.  Not suggesting these features because it aligns with my needs.

Get Pwned!

Re: Mid-2017 checkin: Your Top 3

1. Love LG idea for sharing Intel, try playing with infils on phone hmm sooo bad
Maybe a "submit to family forum" button or something, also logging previous ops would be handy, no more "how many lasers were on that planet again?"

2. Less graphics

3. Allow higher character limit for ingame messages, for sending plists, or add a function to planets page that you can just select the actual coords,
It's not so bad this round with less planets around, but copying direct from planets page is like 30 planets ish max.
(we don't have mapgen to neaten up our plists anymore tongue)

may as well ask to put the stock market in smile

Re: Mid-2017 checkin: Your Top 3

1. Tweaks to the game to reward skill over activity. Also, a reduction in the massive time commitments required of active players every single day. More than 5-8 players per family would go a long way to make it so the one attacker can go more than one day without checking cores. It is also still virtually impossible to fight 1v2, even when enemies crash over 50% of their fleet 4 times and it makes no difference.

2. profit???

3. Long shot, but more active players in at least one galaxy would make me very happy. No idea how to pull that one off though lol.

But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated

I've had a similar thought, but more of running the market like a bank, where you could take out a loan and maybe the repayments get deducted as a percentage from that players income, for however long at whatever interest rate. Tie the 2 together....

Re: Mid-2017 checkin: Your Top 3

That's a very interesting idea!  I can see a whole new angle of econ strat there; risking to fight against your own debt at the benefit of other players who lend aggressively.

Great thoughts so far everybody!

- Family magic/ops page. Not just infils, but also CPFF that are building up, sab's that are pending, e-storms and hypno's that are still active etc.
