Newgrounds and other news?

Hydra here.

Yeah the AC bug is annoying, as is the tech bug where it doesn't update the naq. To get around that I was clicking the techbutton after each upgrade. The overpriced AC tech was the one which really hurt though, I want a bigger AC

[Field Marshall]

If Jason was smart, he'd do another reset...so that there aren't people out with 80t naq...

Kinda screws up the demographics straight away...

But it's beta - we need naq to work out all the bugs....my anti-covert lvl upgrades seem to cost a lot more than they're advertised at for example - anyone else got that?

I love Hydra's technology stats upgrades:

Technology Stats
Attack Tech: 8000
Defensive Tech: 7500
Covert Tech: 3000
Anti-Covert Tech: 1000
Mothership Tech: 3000
God Tech: 100
Income Tech: 2000

lmao.

*glare*...stat posting

That's our beta testing account

Repli, whats your MSN? You should help testing

Yay, just got rank 1....although your techs are killer. lmao.

Gotta love getting the god particle in one turn:

Ascended Power Production: 21,000 God Particle /turn

[Borek]

Yeah, i'd still like to see the individual techs gone or hard-capped at like 50 each, because as it stands there's just no point ascending and losing everything when you can make up for the bonus to stats from ascending by merely buying a few more tech levels.

Those techs just do not work in a long term non-resetting game, makes picking a race type for the bonus irrelevant, ascending irrelevant and also means that someone starting down the line in a few years time is gonna just be blown out the water by people with a fraction of their army sizes trained up

[Hydra]

Been playing 4 turns. This game seems to easy lmao...

And then i ascended with...
Naquadah: 12,630,908,754,803

Ya a reset seems in order lol

Ah, thought you might have been the other farmer...

[Quina Quen]

Name changes don't work. I wanted to become 'Game Needs Work'

[Field Marshall]

Yeah, i'd still like to see the individual techs gone or hard-capped at like 50 each, because as it stands there's just no point ascending and losing everything when you can make up for the bonus to stats from ascending by merely buying a few more tech levels.

Those techs just do not work in a long term non-resetting game, makes picking a race type for the bonus irrelevant, ascending irrelevant and also means that someone starting down the line in a few years time is gonna just be blown out the water by people with a fraction of their army sizes trained up

The evil child of main and ascended....they are capped in the same logistic as main, evetually, they will be so expensive to do single upgrade that the cost outweighs the benefits...but the numbers are crazy. You'd be better of having spy level, ac level, attack level, income level...etc

So yeah, it's not a great system...not bad though, until everyone is in a level playing field without Ts competing against Ms...

Agreed. This server has been open how long, and already between Repli and I, we could carve up the rest of the server.

Also, another bug i ran into, although maybe it was there deliberately, was that after one large farming hit on Snakekeeper, I was unable to hit again from the "again" menu....slowed down my farming considerably

[Dmonix]

The get it all market option also doesn't work

[Sadow]

He said all accounts will be reset after the beta, so im thinking that the income production, starting resources and market rates are beta only and all this will be decreased for the non-beta, live release.

Not really FM, because you can use them to customise an account and like i say several years down the line new players are going to get hit or hit 1 of the established accounts and be like, OMG, what a stupid game, i can never, ever get close to those techs and walk away.

I thought the idea of this game was the encourage new players to join and stick around, not just now, but in the future as well. If it's just going to mirror main and a few years down the line newbies are gonna get blown away by massive time-sink requirements (farming like crazy for 6+ months to get anywhere near matching a veteran in 1 tech area) why would they bother?

[Quina Quen]

Hear, hear.

[Field Marshall]

Now you mention that, indeed. I agree.

Is a bit off putting and I'm in the top 10

[RepliMagni]

Back to my earlier comment....sabotage definitely works

Hydra before:

Military Stats
Strike Action: 80,533,260,000
Defensive Action 76,209,808,000

Hydra after:

Military Stats
Strike Action: 262,260,000
Defensive Action 36,975,568,000

I'll give you all a hint - covert and anti-covert don't work the same as in main

[Hydra]

cheeky bastard
