2nd, the gliders, where will they count for rankings. It looks like under strike, but they don't add to strike, or mothership

So, it begins... did the 15 second thing make it into the real server? If it did, forget massing... not to mention raiding will be almost impossible now.

ya this is idiotic. If you want people to play nice then why did you create a war game.
that means the minimum time to raid/mass a target 10X is 2 1/2 min.
If this stays in I think the price of AT is gonna go in the toilet.

yet another item needed for those that abuse the game.
problem: automated attack scripts attacking hundreds of people (potentially) in the 20 seconds after turn change.
solution: 15 second delay between attacks; more security in the way one can attack.
if you have alternate solutions to the above problem, lets hear them....

Good way to help that.

Now we need to find a way to stop the Vacation bud in ascended? Also the people who use nothing but mass Anti Covert and no covert / defense and are basically off limits from being harmed. Yet they inflict TONS of damage after a friend masses.....
Thanks for the update.

does this mean we cant fast click for raids any more ?
if so could it not be posible too add a system whereby you can enter a figure higher than 15 on the amount of ATs you use alowing you too calculate the ammount of ats you will use on 1 raid ?
with a limit of say 250 - 1000 ?

In order to mass it is now going to take more people working together to do it, if you want to do it quickly. That just means more work instead of sending hundreds of attacks on an account in less then a minute
So massing is going to be harder. But can anyone not admit massing has become a joke lately. What should be decent defenses taken down in less then three minutes sure seems imbalanced to me.
Now if we can get the issues Su mentioned looked into it might bring some more balance into game play.

how about since using an automated script is actually considered cheating unless I'm mistaken you run script detectors instead of hurting the game experience for the 99.5% of the players that don't do it.
