V .15 Complaints and Issues

Postby techgump » Thu Sep 29, 2011 11:08 pm

My opinion here:
1. The map play is harder to see. I cannot pinpoint it, but I think the gloss on the player's icons in each property is pulling my eye away from what is important. Because of this, I like it less.

2. The loss of free races is kinda a downfall, but I understand why. That said, as it is right now, if a user had ninja, and does not change their icon at all, they can keep it. So users, if you don't want to lose the race you have, don't mess with the race options!

3. Please, more level icons.

4. As already reported, the Draw option, while greyed out is still clickable. And if the Decline Draw button is clicked, another pop-up asking to surrender appears. This should not happen.


Otherwise, sharing what others were commenting about right off, everyone I talked to was really bent on the loss of races.

Yeah the gloss is a distraction, but the Vortex Shards are a good idea, even though it is taking the game soooooooooo loooooooong to buy a 3 month premium account....

Could you still look at cleaning up the Leaderboards list as well? (specifically wins section where the multi-loggers are identifiable)? Txs.

The "shine" on the icons. Reflectivity of the icons.

The race icons. The race icons are in each property on the map that the player owns. These race icons are too shiny. Try making a FULL MAP with USA, and look at all the shine. It is just a bit too "busy"/distracting.

Hi,

I'm a bit sceptical about the balancing within the new version. I just bought 3 items in the shop. The race with 10% more reinforcements and the 2 advantages where you can have a higher amount of reinforcements. Now i played a few games vs new players (lvl 1 - 12 I'd say). They (as i did too) noticed the massive unbalancing between me and them and quit fast left or lost the game...

They dont have the possibilities to buy anything without money and I'm afraid that this might cause new players to leave the game, because they have less chances than the older ones. All in all i doubt that the barrier for beginners is getting too high and in the future we might see a smaller community playing vortex...

What do you think about the new balancing?

nothing about balance changed, just more people can buy advanced races. And they aren't really that much stronger, if you noticed some significant different then it was probably only in your head :) it is statistically negligible
