Military Experience

Add this feature to ascended and give people ranks based on the amount of ME they have. Then include it in the overall ranking of the player. It could probably even be weighted high like influence is now and make influence just another overall stat instead of the major stat that determines rank.

It would be fun to see how many planets are turned to dust through my actions and those of my enemies. It would be challenging if my rank was influenced strongly by my high levels of ME. It would also be a fun thing to brag about.

Re: Military Experience

I support this... the current ranks mean absolutely nothing in ascended. ME would become very interesting as it will rise or drop based on what you have lost/killed and also will rank the actives higher, making them harder to get the attacks. ;)

Re: Military Experience

It won't make farming any harder cos farming is based on size not rank... and I think its a brilliant idea and i'm all for it :-D

Re: Military Experience

i would support, but the one in main needs to be fixed first, u still get no ME for sabbing i mean it shows up but not it ur overall total, trust me i just did the math and its way low, so this should be fixed first then work on the ascended one.

Re: Military Experience

Good idea Fremen, curious as to what sort of point system it would be.

Just as long as it doesn't bring a 2 minute server lag with it I'm happy

we just keep making them more and more alike LOL

I'd rather see the game fixed before more worthless trinkets are introduced, but I have no real objection to it. The turn lag and the turn long lag have killed main for me, might as well gut ascended as well.

Re: Military Experience

If it is updated only once a day it shouldn't cause turn lag. Hmmm. Didn't know this was the source of lag on main, I thought it was due to the 90k more accounts on that server.

My turn lag started when the "useless information" updates came into being.

There are two different lags. one on turn change, and one that happens all turn long. Useless information and inactives both contribute.

I did suggest a recalc at 12 or 24 hrs but was ignored. Just like when I suggested archiving the ME records and starting fresh since someone 1 yr behind will never catch up. It looses its meaning after time. I figure it will be ignored as well.
