Topic: This game needs something really exciting...

I recently started playing Guild Wars & since very rarely play the game. I know there's no active round atm, but for the sake of the game do something amazingly different. Rounds get boring, then it makes the whole game boring.

Ok, so the merger is new. That might add a little excitment but will it last ? ? ?

I think the most interesting part of Imperial Conflict are the forums. . .

Ok, i've had my nag, follow on..

My name is Sam Fisher
I used to be a hero - now I'm a wanted man.
I used to hunt terrorists - now I am one.
I used to take orders - now I execute them.
I've become, a Double Agent!

Your = possessive. As in, "your grammar sucks."
You're = you are. As in, "you're an idiot for not knowing the difference."

Re: This game needs something really exciting...

The game itself has always been boring.
It used to be the community that made this game "fun".

It's just such a shame such great people like pie, weedeh and teh grimster died.
God bless their souls.

This forum is stupid.

The excitement will last for as long as it did the last time someone tried to cure Imperial Conflict's ailing health by merging two unpopulated galaxies.


Ultimately what Imperical Conflict needs is something that noone will do: A total re-working.
The universe, the races, their background stories, the whole game has the potential to become an awesome and popular game IF someone would only give it the work AND backing it needs.

I think it is about time Stefan accepted that he cannot give IC what it needs and let someone else have their turn, but unfortunately that will never happen because Stefan is famously weird about his precious PHP scripts.

Give the game the chance it deserves, give the game the chance you cannot give it, give the game to someone else; After all, you have had plenty of offers and they have all been turned down, and for what?


Imperial Conflict is dying, dying of cancer, a cancer called complacency that is pumping out toxins that are made of indifference and are thriving on the fatty goodness that is pride.

[lion king]pride, or [www.] Imperial Conflict, it's your choice.

Breast physics never hurt any game

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Re: This game needs something really exciting...

... It's Stefan's game and I don't see hordes of masses lining up willing AND able to make a better game.  I haven't played for what like 5 years now.  I like the forums and want the forums to stick around, but this isn't about Stefan hording the game it's his.

I'm going to be nicer promise

The offers have been there; some have even been on the forum itself. I'm sure many long term players can think of one occurrence.

That's the second time I've read about my death =/  Kinda creepy really.

I'm still here though.  Weedies died though? sad sad  I hope that is false as well.  I didn't know grimster.

But yes, the community is part of it.  Although the original poster has a good point.  Some actual story into the game would be nice.  Something to make it feel less like the game we've played over and over again and more like a real, living universe.

Stef though... who knows what he has going on in RL.  But it is obvious that his heart is no longer in this game, which is a shame.  But we shall be thankful that the game is still here and we can all still talk to eachother.  True, our community isn't what it used to be, but at least it's still here.

Got a few bucks?  The Imperial Tip Jar is accepting contributions!

I think that community should be more emphasized. Each page should have a an the side that shows the last 5 things said on the irc. Hackthissite.org has one of those. I like it.
