I voted yes... remove them or effectively double them...

100mill to buy up to

150 for raiding

200mill for plague...

by the way I would love being able to sell my UU for 1bill/k :)

It would help me grow at a phenomenal rate...

I would be able to get an obscene UP and be able to upgrade my covert levels by only selling 2million UU rather than 3-4million...

pimp out my MS even more... it would be great :)

p.s. If anyone wants to buy my UU at that rate now pm me ingame :)

How can we determine that this short term measure was/is successful?

How many new players have made it to the 50mil mark? Beyond the 50mil mark?

I say we keep them for now... Until the other players actually catch up.

Well I have been over the 50mil limit for some time now and im happy to say its absolutly fine how it is, it is more than possible to go over 50mil over 75mil and even legolass demonstrated that its quite easy to go over 100mil.

There are a lot of players over it yes but there are hundreds more that arent, its good how it is. I also like the more tactical gamplay IE you cant just buy/raid uu. Reminds me of the old days.

I think those limits should ALWAYS stay and more be made IE at 150mil uu + you lose 400k/day. ETC.

I like Geisha idea for a short term change. Limits should be revaluated every six months.

the war pushed our accounts back to the stone age meaning armies of most people has decreased, no need for cap removal......yet

Im all for removing the CAP's and im no where near the limit infact in on VAC in main atm, but if admin removes them he does need to add in a loss to attack ratio, or someone with 20mill attackers hitting someone with 1mill defenders would be nasty, gotta keep the balance in that sense, else you'll get some complaining its unfair again, other than that remove them all.
Deep within Noob Cave, you find a strange pool filled with a glowing blue liquid. You think back to what your mother told you about unfamiliar liquids found in caves.

You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

Remove the caps, pending that every 10% above the maximum limits is dispensed to alliance members :-D

amazing how a lot of generalisations and bashing on the forum seems to rotate around CoP or Omega...

& I'm not talking about war - caus ethis is not war anymore ... we whent from fighting with huge strikes & defences to hits for 1 bill naq & massing 10 bill def ...the forces are WAY to balanced , & if there is EVER gonna peace after this war is over - if it will ever be ....we need to have people also working on growing & not just fighting & a couple of them getting strong enough to so that the rest of the comunitty respects SOMEONE PLAYER for their account

what are the prospects if we keep it up ? well let me tell you ..all that have reached the limmitations will start selling resources for $ because it's very hard to use it to acutually grow ; all of the player who were COMMITED to reach 75 mill will gradually loosve interest in the game & leave...the wholle server will gradually turn into a 75 mill armysise CLONE ARMY & only nombers will count & not personal valor ...

DO you want to play a server where everyaccount basically looks allike ? then why strive to get 75 mill - quit now & gain some extra free time :wink:


First we must remember that this server have no reset so, without caps, the older account can grow as much as they want. They were always in the top and will be always there but the new accounts will never be able to catch up. Thats why a cap is needed. And second, this is a game so at some point I expect ppl to get bored and quit. I mean, do u want to see the same faces for years and years?
Maybe after the last ascension there should be an option to abbandon the physical plane of existance (the main account), keeping the ascended account and getting into some ingame hall of fame. That would be more healthy for the server than removing the cap

Interesting how pointless that post was? People can have their own opinions COP is a name and cannot take control of your body or anything. So stop the nonsense please.
