no and I wouldn't care if they removed it from main either

Mordack wrote:Yes from me.

I do not believe that ranked ME has affected main adversely. In my eyes, the rot which now festers in both servers was there a long time before that feature was implemented. I also feel that the behaviour encouraged by ME is positive rather than negative. I believe that anything which encourages people to play the game is a good thing.

I agree, it would be a benefit to ascended which is fairly innactive at the moment anyway, so generally if an inplanted ME was to encourage people to actively play ascended it would be a good thing. It is also a good idea to keep losees/ destructions for war thus encouraging people to play further.

Ascended ME chasers? If people do seek out to destroy, the counter affect is the limited amount of turns so if they do infact ME chase then their accounts will be taken over.

I disagree with both of you personally. As long as people can blindly kill others accounts with NO fear or retaliation because they carry no stats and suffer 1/5, 1/10 even 1/25th of the losses doing so, the this behavior most definitely is not good for the health of the game. JMO

I do agree ME is not the problem, it just showed the problem more clearly.

If people were forced to keep the stats used to mass, and allow attack units to be killed, then ME IMO, would be fine. But since people need to skill to do it, and it has a very large bug that someone pointed out to me, which would allow me to reach ranked 1 ME in probably 2 weeks, it's very flawed.

Not to mention the major flaws in the system to begin with, but meh.

Sorry to be a dumby can some one put this into simple terms for this bear. I am having trouble understanding.

Basically what they want is the Military Experience similar to the one on main but not to have a rank so it will just give you your kill stats but not compared to anyone else

Well I think thats ok then.

Until you realize that alliances will just compete with each other anyway. Making it ranked either way.

If it was written properly, and showed a measure of skill, as opposed to simply whom can waste the most resources to increase it. Then yes. However, this is especially bad with Ascended. When you realize you can reach the population cap in 4 days, and then you start loosing income, so you may as well loose it killing other peoples stuff. Then this will just provide the same mentality as main

eh ok. I must have chose a bad time to read that. Or I walked into a shrink class.

When you hit 2bill planets your expansion rate decreases to a % less than 100% of your actual growth rate. So ineffect you "lose" planets and therefore income that you otherwise would have had there been no soft cap in place. Many accounts have expansion rates close to or over a billion a day, so if we were reset to zero it would take us 2-3 days to get to 2bill. At my size I forgo/lose about 1,190,000,000 planets every day. It ain't pretty seeing 3.14% flash up on the page.

Also at 2bill you become big enough and start generating enough dmu to get on the radar of some farmers out there. Unless you don't train income planets sooner or later you are going to get farmed.

So instead of just sitting back and having your arse handed to you, what Sarevok is saying is to take the axe to other people and have some fun.

the life of an ascended bored nub :
nothing trained
maximum turns gained because you are ranked lowly

log on
train some assasins,
train some strike if you're bored
and piss off some people!
untrain : )

oh isn't that fun : )
