i had an idea yesterday that they should put a video battle clip on the screen every time you attack or raid someone showing your race and the race you attacked fighting each other in orbit and troops coming out of the stargate and that but every time you attack a different clip comes up

ie tauri fighting against goa'uld/system lords or asgard against reps or asgard against goa'uld etc


what do you think about that?

Useless and just adds more bandwidth use... And it'll also make MGM go angry

Wouldn't help the occasional lag either :lol:

+ Would also get repetitive and boring :?

Bad idea:

1 - increase in bandwidth (already mentioned)
2 - increase in lag (already mentioned)
3 - This is a text based MMORPG
4 - Try massing someone with a video clip popping up with every attack.

Only redeeming feature is if it is optional, and once you've seen the same clip 50x, I'm sure you'll opt-out of seeing it again for the 51st time
