now that is something that sounds realy good

With a little twist:

Your only allowed to descend people of the same level, or levels higher.
And the ones attacking the higher levels, are allowed to be hit by those higher ID they hit for a period of 1 week (like the higher level is allowed to counter that ID that attacked them in means of a coutner attack)
Goes for descensions attacks only

Can you explain this in more detail - theres alot of ways one could do that

Cap planets @ 15b
Cap power ups at 1000- for those over 1000 bring them down to 1000

Need to have a think about this one

Cap covert level at 40
Cap AC level at 40
Cap max army size at 300mil- total army including mers..eliminate the plaque aspect.
Cap ms capacities at 500k slots- if any is over bring them down
Cap ascensions at 25 (debatable) stay where they are

This will make players have to use thier accounts in strategic ways

I agree but these caps need to be reviewed every half year/year be checking the server out and seeing what the average standard is

Remove alliance repairs

Might reform it or at least mod it so that its more expensive for the alliances with big alliance bank resources

Remove alliance ppt's

Id prefer to see those stay - they are of a benefit in war and in peace

Remove the houses and install a galaxy format

Interesting - any detailed thought on how this would work?

Make a ratio whereas an account cannot engage another unless it is within a specific power/size parameter.

Good idea plus for Attack (button) but will this ration also be applied when it comes to the sab/ac (button)?

Install farm button- with this you can farm any account.

Nice idea since it will be un-effected by the ratio

Make failed covert ops show in the logs
Make successful covert ops 100% not shown- no ?????

I dont think that needs to be changed

Add a attack weps sab button
Add a def weps sabb button

So we can choose which we want to sab.

I am not sure if this is a good idea - that would basically make a defence partially obsolete but at the same time its hard to deny that strikes can be too easily protected at times - not sure which way is best (old or new)

You want to level the playing field? and make the game good for noobies and power players alike? Lets US big guns step up and make the sacrifice for the game, because the updates being discussed right now do not benefit everyone in this game, they cater to a select few.

You have some good ideas Jedi - its a good starting point. Shall be interesting to see what becomes of this :-D

PPT's- main/asc., Vac- main/asc..as stated in a previous post accounts can be descended in 3 hits, I am 3/3 on this since yesterday and more to come.

an alternative to the complete joining would be to extend the descend period to 24hours and or allow for ppt's there. Attach planets count to the ability to descend..all of the other aspects I like but me being able to stop players in their tracks from growth whilst I keep ever growing is retarded and 100% contrary to the efforts to level the game (as has been argued in the past)

Cap planets @ 15b
Cap power ups at 1000- for those over 1000 bring them down to 1000

Just a preliminary example

edit- here is a thought, you can only descend an account at your own ascension level? For example..I am on a descend spree, I have nothing to fear from the top descenders whatsoever, and the ones I have targeted cannot stop me..now. Is it right for me to do that and delay a LG or a prior or any other lesser account for 2 weeks? Is it right that the main accounts attached to those can do basically nothing for 2 weeks? In 3 hits= 6 hours? You answer that with an open mind.

Cost effective is not a concern as reason stated before I cannot believe the lack of constructiveness here.

I described how it can be stopped, it takes literately less then 1 minute to log in get DMU and refill reserves. If you get descended you get descended, you spent the time ascending in main, it comes with the risk. If you change the game to no longer have descending then remove ascending.

If you keep spending turns descending you loose out on growth, on increasing stats, allowing others to catch up/close the gap. And catching up/closing the gaps is super easy in ascended cause the higher your level the more it cost. Making it easier to get closer and closer to the tops while they stagnate slowly.

You haven't even done the math, it takes hardly anything for stats to block the average ToC long enough to cover yourself, hell all 740s cost 105 quad DMU and can block above average ToCs with little time.

But basically all i hear is you want to ascend 23 times, not temporary loose its bonuses, and not work on your ascended that you had a year to develop while you were ascending.

Lastly if you have found a bug and you continue to exploit it that could be a bad thing. Their is only 1 circumstance that I know of where you can descend in under 4 hits, that is someone coming off being descended that never refilled.

Its been happening way before I started...thats a fact. And I havent found any bug.

As i keep telling you, it is required that someone takes at least 4 hits to descend. If its taking less than 4 hits as I explained you have found a bug, are hitting someone else that got hit by another person, or they recently came off descended and didn't refill themselves.

4 Hits
--------------
1st HIT -1/3 of LF
<<Wait 3 hours>>
2nd HIT -1/3 of LF
<<Wait 3 hours>>
3rd HIT - 1/3 of LF down to 1 LF
<<Wait 3 hours>>
4th HIT - Killshot

Also I see no point in not reporting those that have been descended in less then 4 hits. Especially for someone who is so concerned about the state of the game and people getting unfairly treated as you so state and seem passionate about. Why wouldn't you check with admin to make sure its not a bug? Why would you continue to say its how it works, when it doesn't work like that?

Post constructive please. Thank you

You want to level the playing field? and make the game good for noobies and power players alike? Lets US big guns step up and make the sacrifice for the game, because the updates being discussed right now do not benefit everyone in this game, they cater to a select few.

For starters....

- Allow trading between realms, but prevent attacking between realms (unless there is alliance hostile setting). This will separate the superpowers from the average joes. Implement "view by realm" option so you don't have to sort through two different realms if you don't want to.
- Raise the cutoff to 200m army size and make it mandatory to be in perg if you are under that. This will require a limitation on how often one can switch realms (e.g. once per month)
-Automatically shift players with rank 1-200 into main realm.
- Possible complications - farming, raiding
